Ohh and btw , I got the standing ovation tonight in the T*** place circle work . I am sure you know where I mean , just up from the place you frequent.

Got it to do a rotate on the spot 4wd donut. Needed the wet rd to keep it going.

phuck , I damn near passed out with the g force.

Now I know what the WRC cars at forrest place must have felt like in the old days of victory donuts. Hehehe

So the ricer is going already:( It will give you money to buy another:D

Nope , with the changes in the rules ie. no one is complying R32's and the uncertainty of the 15 yr old , I will wait for a while and see what happens.

Ken, I think my ring-lands have gone, will do a compression test on the weekend, see if it shows anything. But I drive sensibly too, don't know how it could happen:D

Yea , it seems to blow smoke on over run which means the vacuum could be drawing the oil up past the rings on overrun.

Could also mean that only your oil control rings are gone and the compression could be fine.

Ken, let me know when your doing it and I'll pop down, I'm just around the corner:D

Wondered why Danny has so many fried tyres:p

they normally stay out of that street but hear them rip up and down past there shop.

It is usually only a spur of the moment thing.

Any , I'm off cos the missus has just slammmmmmed the door which is a hint.:(

Oil control rings? Are they the second lot of rings on the piston? Is it bad? Should I put the forgies in sooner or later?

Nope , there usually the third set and are two thin rings with a wavy scraper thing. Not a real problem cos oil is cheap but it is telling you that the engine is getting tired. More boost and bigger terbs will kill it quick which is why I might as well get it done on mine now.

That and r and r the engine is like an 8 hr job.

Also finally found out mine has a nismo sprung twin plate and is in good nick so that's a bonus.

Wait till she sees you at Albany.lol

    • Son, in this country, that is a piece of Gyprock. f**king drywall. FFS! I also like the autocorrect of trailer to tablet. I was reading it and thing, "what the hell drugs is he on?" Then the photo made it clear enough.
    • SO whats the deal with this issue? I've read a heap of posts from the infinity owners in the US having full engine swaps done under warranty. Most claims are done on earlier cars than 2019 but I'm sure I've come across claims of 2020 models also having this issue. I like the 400r and Q50Red/S but can't fathom dumping close to 50k on a car with terminal issues!!! 
    • The above video is working normally. That is, that's how the right hand indicator should cancel when rotating the wheel left.
    • I noticed that I could see creatures on the moon when I turned my new headlights on. I thought I should check the alignment. It's pretty rudimentary but I just grabbed some dry wall and put it against my tablet and made sure the beam was below the height on the headlights. Ie the beam is at 600mm on my car, I just made it lower than that 7.5m away.  Not the best but it'll do until I can do it properly at the local shops.   
    • As @Duncan said - the bores are most likely to cop it. But anything can and does happen. Rods are cheap. Rods are good. The work to rebuild the motor will be 30x the price of rods. You won't notice it.
