You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

so ISP is internode. happily had 10Mbps download speeds when in clayton. hit 1.1meg a second with steam

have moved to rowville, my plan was not available so had to switch to a different one. have had nothing faster than 430kbps download. router says 4.3Mbps constant. doesnt change with peak load.

before contacting ISP support i plugged router to port in a different room (only 2 in the house) and speed jumped to 7.1Mbps and downloading 720kbps with steam.

house has an old foxtel connection from the street which isnt in use and no home phone. is there anything i can do to get faster? why would the other port be so much slower?

Can be crappy wiring in the house... ring topology on the internal wiring etc... Should always plug in ADSL2+ Modems to the First point in the house, and make sure that the other points are wired in a manner which works well with ADSL (aka. Not how a lot of Phone Wiring was done by people 20 years ago)

Distance from exchange, estimated cable length and estimated speed when doing an address lookup on www.adsl2exchanges.com.au ?

under 1500m as the crow flies. dunno about cable...

Should be getting decent speeds at that sort of distance, the copper cabling in Wantirna isn't toooo broken down compared to other areas.

Meanwhile Telstra still bullshitting me about getting me swapped over to an ADSL2 port in the Boronia exchange that I know they don't have.

Actually told me on the phone that I might have to wait for another customer in Boronia to die / disconnect from their ADSL2 service, in order to free up a port for me. I said what is this, the MCC? Still can't give me an eta for when a technician will get out there and solve it.

My prediction: after weeks and weeks they will eventually get a technician out there to report back (and not tell me, I'm sure I'll have to call) that they don't actually have ADSL2 ports, only Spintel and some other mob do, and bad luck for me...aka something I was able to establish from a quick google.

yeah but if there was a 3-4gbps loss just in the plug choice... it could be f**king anything just on the property.

      Welcome. This is not really true. We have a whole forum here just for the NA shitboxen. And they are not very different from the turbo shitboxen. Just weaker brakes and gearboxes, and no LSD, for the most part.

      I'm pretty sure it has an 040 in it @Duncan Also reading up, that turbo should top out at 250 as you first thought. It will be interesting to see how early it chokes due to the changes in the head too

      Yeah confirmed they are Nismo 555s, found the boxes in the spares with the factory injectors in. Yeah the AAC has been relocated to allow reuse of the factory brake booster line, and yes confirmed it has a 1 way valve in it. Unfortunately the one on the car is cracked, I'll need to replace it. Pretty sure I've got all the AAC plumbing correct in my previous post, but I am going to source some new fittings with 90o angles to help with the hose routing and also one really specific moulded shape for the AAC intake to cold start hose (will raid the back of our local repco when I get a chance and work out some combo that works) One of the big things I learned in the GTR is you need to be able to get your hands all around the bay when something goes wrong. I've done a bunch of re-routing now and it should be much more practical now. Also got the BOV mount re TIG-ed by the local engineering shop so that should be good to go now. Never got to the fuel pump because of some life stuff today, but will pull it to confirm it is suitable for 300rwkw when I get a chance

      Hello everyone, I am from Malta and have recently bought myself a fully stock 1992 Nissan Skyline GTS. It has the RB20DE engine and thus is NA. Unfortunately, not a lot of information can be found online related to the GTS, unlike the information for GTS-T and GTR variants. Apart of the Skyline, I also got a 1984 Porsche 924 2.0l NA and a 2002 Renault Clio 1.5DCi for everyday use. Excited to be apart of the community and perhaps get better information on cars such as the GTS.

      The fuel pump bracket just slides straight up.  Below is a pic I stole off a site. But basically put hand in for fuel pump, wiggle it all about a bit while pulling up.
