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

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.

      As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers.

      Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
