ha ha ADFA mechanic an officer in ADFA only clears $23,000 a year most of them are fresh out of school they get a loan and repay like 28% intrest on a flash car and think they can work on it at the shop most are sadly mistaken he will be on that pay bracket until he graduates to become an officer this could take 4 years. Defence love to talk it up and drive flash rides but there is usualy nothing under the bonnet flash. let him have his bottle because in time people will have to call him sir and he will be forced to grow up.

I never knew there were mechanics at ADFA. Apparently it is supercharged and turbo'd............

Anyway, a lot of young kids are like this. We soon set them straight :P

those details make no sense, inducton: twin turbo, then he says supercharger and turbo, fenatic...... F-E-N-A-T-I-C, no R, only little boys with civics use the letter R, 890hp, at barbagello, isn't that a actual race track not a drag strip ???

For starters it's spelt 'fanatic' not 'fernatic' so he's obviously got the know how, not to mention the fact that you are right in saying that Barbagello is a race track and does not have a drag strip unle you count the main straight which goes up and down, or the other straigh which has a 180 degree bend at the end of it. Obviously a nutter :bs!:

yes there are mechanics in ADFA they are either called meo's or weo's (weapon enginering officer) i forget what the first one stands for but generaly known as an enginering officer's

and i know what some of you are thinking dosen't sound to bad but working on 400 year old engines isn't fun especialy when an engine the size of your car puts out less kw than a stock gts-t

the supercharged turbo thing comes from the detroit donks they are turbo supercharged ha ha ha ha

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!

      That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect

      The Ls1 R33 Of Fury

      It's about time I start work on my sun tan. So I knocked up a few parts that will all combine together to become my new power steering reservoir. Now just to produce an abundance of UV and IR rays while melting a heap of bits of alu to become one... Well, that's after I put one more hole in it for the return line to plumb to. It likely won't be this weekend, as Sunday I'm meant to be in doing some last minute stuff to the AMG race car, and the weekend after will be filled with non my Skyline stuff, followed by Bathurst 6 hour. So I don't expect to get to melt metal for at least 3 weeks.   I also managed to stuff up and start cutting the hole for the res to pump pipe on the wrong side of the line... It means instead of the lines being nice and tight against the inner guard, they'll be out off the guard.    The size of it means I should end up with about 1.8L of power steering fluid, and still have space for another half a litre before it reaches the overflow/breather. This is wayyyyyyy more capacity than factory, which should help keep Powersteer oil temps lower, and the design hopefully allows it to prevent any aerated oil being able to makes its way down to the bottom as it'll have a couple of baffles and some hopeful trickery to force air bubbles away from the bottom.
