The old 32's aye.

Yeah, and when you use a multimeter it makes no sense.

I gave up and re wired it all. New head unit, parcel shelf, a big amp, and 4 160w 6x9's

The advantage of that is being able to use good quality cable.

Are the speakers totally fried?

Yep the speaker cones have separated. If i was to rewire all the speakers then would it be ok to just heat shrink over the ends of the old unknown cables?

I spose... as long as everything else still works. :laugh:

Yeah thats what i did.

Mines ok, been good for a few years like that.

now you can find some treasures hidden under the carpet etc

I found empty .22 casings in one of my old cars. :blink:

Gaahhh fwaaaark :wacko:

I had then same problem with my stereo, tho its all arftermarket, as it was written off I didn't know who the owner was, and it had an amp in it, but took the amp, and left everything in a mess, it was a pain in the ass when I had to pull the headunit out to trace the all the wires going to the cross overs and speakers, took me about a day to get it all running back through the head unit, that was a pain in the ass, now the rca for the sub was replaced without soldering, time to pull out the subfrom the boot and solder it :) when I got the child restraints installed johns mate ( the other guy working at Trojan) broke my rear speaker connecters, some alpine r series f**ked... yet to mount them somewhere other then the parcel shelf, or somewhere on it keeping the restraints, any ideas ?

Today managed to get front and rear Nolathane Swaybar bushes on SkyWagon although it would seem that "Mr Nolathane" sent me 18mm bushes in a 27mm pack. :verymad:

So I sawed those f**kers up in Frustration and squeezed them on the stock 25mm swaybar. :rant:

"Mr Nolathane" is gonna cop a Grumpy Email the flamin mongrel!

Also some better condish (but not new) caster rod bushes went on.

Edit* then I discovered that when Therese drove the 33 this arvo, she managed to somehow lose the plastic ring that's normally around the ignition barrel. :spank:

Anyone got a spare?

Japanese import spares have heaps :)

Mine didn't have a hole in it. :(

Orly? :/

Does the sedan one go around the barrel?

Edit: just read in your original post that you said ring that goes around barrel. So I'm confused haha :(

    • I'm with GTS, that's not an actual overheat issue. That's an electrical issue.
    • So, it's clearly an electrical problem. Either with the gauge itself, or the sender. It appears to be voltage sensitive (ie, alternator output affects the reading.
    • Yes, at this stage of SAU threads, I  automatically assume that anyone here knows that everything depends on each and every setup and its choice of parts and what an individual wants from the setup. I think your misunderstanding what I've said, I'm not saying your curve will move to the right.. I'm stating the opposite; that my setup has a much larger turbo than my last one, my current exhaust manifold runners are 2-3x longer than the last one, the intercooler is longer and thicker (hks 103mm thick), the itbs are now oversized from 45mm up to 49mm, and the plenum is now a larger Nismo plenum that's been port matched. As a result, I'm making more power, torque and boost 1000rpm earlier than my last setup. My curve moved left, in a big way. You guys with 800-1000+hp turbos should be considering hks v-cam or the other Japanese company Sakura who makes RB25 Neo vct adaptor kits for RB26's. they all make more power / boost / torque far earlier and higher peak numbers. Dahtone Racing modifies the Hks v-cam systems to his own specs and he also developed the worlds first and best dbw individual throttle body kits, to complement his V-cam. Every single car is 800-1200+hp and they all produce huge gains in response and peak power. 
    • I have a 2008 Skyline 370gt with about 160,000 km on the clock currently. A while ago, I noticed the temp gauge would start climbing but it comes down when I give it some throttle. I took it into the shops. The technicians comments are transcripted below. Reported they couldn't find anything wrong with the vehicle mechanically and they pressure tested the cooling system. Funnily enough, the technician commented that the temperature dropped back down when the car is stationary but this is when I'd notice the temp gauge to be climbing. Just wondering if anyone else experienced anything similar to enlighten me? Cos at the onset, the temps were going up one tick and then comes back down when I step on it. Now, the temps are climbing all the way to the top of the gauge, and it's making me very nervous lol. It also doesn't come down to the neutral position anymore. PS I do have a small exhaust leak near the drivers side caused by when I got f**ked by a really steep driveway at a mall I never visited before. Not sure if this would affect the sensor. Technician comments: Check and verify Fan/Cooling system - ALL OK max 106*C and fans operating at 100% Cools down right away. Checked Fan Operation - 55%@101*C, 85% @ 104*C and 100% @ 105*C Vehicle did not exceed these temperatures with max load. Temperature recovered back to 99*C after fan operation while vehicle Stationary.
    • It really depends on your setup. Mine is 'accidently' more suited to revving higher. bigger cams, turbo etc. Plus my super long first takes donkey years to come onto boost, so if it will move my power band to the right, maybe i'll pass on this. i have a G45-1500 going on there soon which I suspect might make it more of a fat pig.
