that is your 5th post Hosh. You haven't been on here all week, I know this because I've been checking, and surprise you just *happen* to log on on a Thursday of all days looking for an excuse to drive fast again. It would seem that you have no genuine interest in cars, your driving skills, listening, being a member of a group, or contributing at all.

I was surfing the net the other day and found a site that might be a little more up your alley. Boostcruising.com plus they're having a black tie ball soon. you can get dressed up and everything.

If you posted something meaningful during the week or even bothered to go to the whoretown to chat to some of us I was going to cut you some slack. But you didn't. So very very sorry. Better luck next time.

Other than that I hope you enjoy reading and posting on the forums and that you might gain some insight into your vehicle.

WTF Happened!!?!?

I mean I been on a cruise with owned and go through twisty turny bits at night and for about 30 full minutes NOT see his headlights behind me, which is why when we stopped I asked him not to follow so close, I did not get pissed at him or anything, it just boiled down to driving experiance, plus he did not have a radio for to hear me yelling out to him to freakin back off.

All that said I shudder to think what this poor schmuk did to cause such a kuffuffle!

I disagree Cyrus... It's got nothing to do with driving experience... It's common sense for one and secondly, "following to closely" is illegal and learnt when studying for your learners...

Hosh has apologised and thats great... But he shouldn't have been there in the first place. He was not prepared (no radio) and more than likely won't be welcome on any further cruises...

I for one would be just as cranky as Charly in the same situation...

I think it's great that this guy apologised and I think we should all give him a break. YES it was bad for him to be tail gating on a mountain. But he might not have done one before. Yes it's common sense not to tail gate someone, but everyones opinion of tailgating is different.

Maybe instead of just going off our nuts at him, we should explain some of the common courtesy rules of going on a mountain run. Wouldn't that be more civilised?

ines is when you are too close and if you have to break at 60 km that you wont hit the person in front of you.

however, i wouldnt want someone on my arse the entire time, so I would give them the wave to pass or I would pull over at some intersection to let them pass. most of the time I drive to the speed limit, but up mt nebo, thouse limits are too high for some spots on the road. thats where you see most of the unbarked trees.

drive safely and if you believe you want to race. go do it at 4am in the morning when now one is up there.

well i am with cyrice and erin, yeah he shouldnt have been following to close its just common sence, but he should still be welcome on the cruises maybe mountain runs are not for him. give him a chance it was his first sau cruise. now that he is wiser about our cruise etticate he should be fine. unless he reoffends i am sure he will be sweet.

    • As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.
    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy  
    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
