Lookign good.
Do a radiator flush...it prob never had fluids changed for a decade.
I just put a new K&N filter + new Staintune exhaust on my R6 - sounds grunty as now. Need to look into getting a power commander to re-map it though.
Will post up some piccys when i get a chance :)
kaio nub get 6x9'sI'm poor =(
Its got all new coolant in it, but i might take it to a radiator shop as well and get them to check if any of the pipes are clogged.
Frustratingly I just put all the cooling system back together, I had to take off the radiator to fix a broken engine mount, and now Im going to have to do it all again :'(
Those YZF-R6's are real grunty for a 600cc aren't they?
I really like it's bigger brother (The R1) the only thing I dont like about the YZF line is where Yamaha decided to put the master cylcinder for the front discs, right in front of your instrument panels >.<
Definitely post up some pics when you get time man :D

Yea thats what I am saying...since it never got changed it prob full of crap...so buy a flush kit from an auto store it usually cleans them right out.
Hmm is it the newer ones with the master cylinder behind the panel? Mines right on the bars where it should be.
And yea - R1 on the cards next ;) (I want one of those ones with the new Big Bang engine)

Last time i checked (around a month ago, when some guy hit my car, and drove off, when it was parked), you can get address. I think it costs a small amount, but you can still do it. Along with owners details.

meh even if u can dont see the point in blanking out plates caz if people wanted thay can do it to any car then just walk down the street and grab a few?
Why? The point is, say i was some crazy stalker. And i see a picture of the car online. I can now go from picture of the car, to the actual car in 1 easy step.
Also blob, carjam is good to check if people wind their rego. And as far as i know, its the same as post office, in that it gets mot info, to provide details about someone's car.

Thats annoying. Nissan must be absolute crap at making engines. Going by hondas and stuff with 4 cylinder engines, I should be getting 250 - 280HP from my car if i had the same HP per cylinder.Nissan make crap stock engines xD. But you can usually boost them up by craploads with a few aftermarket addons. My car also uses as much gas as my dads XR6
stfu acidsnapper. It's not a pissing contest thread, especially when you don't have the figures. You have a mid-sized family car.

My car probably uses more than your dads XR6. I can go through over 70 liters a fortnight.That is intense. Funny thing is it puts out the same amount of power xD
My car probably uses more than your dads XR6. I can go through over 70 liters a fortnight.
Oh whoops, misread, thought you meant 170bhp.Meh haha, I'm getting the fact from the ford site. And I'm well aware my Capella won't have more power than an R34 xD
But anyway, XR6s were introduced in the early 90s making very close to 220bhp, and they haven't since made them with less power, so I don't really know where you're getting your facts from.
Also, a tip: Saying 'non turbed' three times in a post makes you sound like a bit of a douche, try N/A :P

Ha ha.
Idiot.
I've not before seen a car manufacturer that lists their vehicles fuel economy by litres per fortnight.
Yeah VR4s are well known for their economy, but sometimes it seems to mess up when I go to Wellington and I end up using 250L/ fortnight. Real strange, I'm thinking of taking it in to get it looked at.
40L/fortnight is pretty bad, when were your turbos last regassed?
denser, no.
faster moving and frequently really cold, yeah
Yeah, mine's generally 14-15L/100km around town and 10-11L/100km highway :<

Meet my fine lady Sheryl
Full 2.75" straight through with HKS Super Dragger fitted before import, pod filter etc
Only the RB20DE Manual but until I can afford the running costs of decent power its still got plenty of nut and handles like a wet dream
Only cost me $3000 2 years ago with 127,000kms on the clock and four 235/40R17 Continentals so the original tyres worth worth half what I payed for the car, it needs to be lowered but with the subs and exhaust it attracts cops like angry bees as it is, in fact even being a rather alert driver (first vehicle I drove on the road was a motorcycle) I sometimes take a second to notice the red and blues because I sure as shit don't hear the sirens.
Interesting fact: Subs are so heavy it takes two people to get them in and out of the boot, performance is noticeably decreased with them in, and I have one of the only setups I know of most unlikely to be successfully stolen because the thieves are unlikely to ever get them out.

Yeah these are serious cars. But they should drive well for the 6-figure price tag I suppose.
Be interesting to see what number off the production line his one is at the end of the year. They print it along with chassy number etc under the hood.
You are quite right its an RB20E, I had a Laurel before the Skyline, force of habit
Anyways I have been put off Altezzas because they are so common (lol I drive a Skyline) but they are nice looking cars, and the beams engined ones especially go hard.
Yeah I'll take a wild guess that it's the I6 3S-FE SaSa :) you would most likely know what it had if you had the 4Cylinder (RS200) model. And also would have paid more if it had very low mileage I would imagine.
The confusing part is the 4 and 6 cylinder 2.0L engines both say BEAMS on the engine cover, the 4cylinder has it printed in fancy red font is the easiest visual way to tell, also it's a lot shorter of course :)
Even still I've gone for a ride in my workmates 3S-FE, and while it is an economy engine, you cannot deny it is a smooth and nice ride. I haven't had the chance to drive or ride in an RS200, but from what I've heard the extra 60-70 horsies make for really good pickup.
only has one turbo, was twin but changed it to single
Quote from: mayhem_lee;1323727only has one turbo, was twin but changed it to single
I've never heard of a twin turbo Caldina.
Its the 3S-GTE which is only a single turbo but for a 4cylinder they aren't a bad donk, then again its made by Toyota which explains a lot.
Yeah... It was old when you started it 5 years ago. Now it's just stupid.
Has blow off valve.

Aston, though to be fair, Toyota and Nissan make better V8's these days!

Hmmmmm, check Octane rating on the Civic too btw.
I know my Levin ran like a dog on 91. Needed 98, like my skyline and the wife's S2000.
"all sohc/sohc vtec 92-00 JDM motors require/recommend regular 91-92 RON fuel"
91 - putting 95/98 is fine, just costs your wallet more.

All up was a $900 worth of fines. And not so much stupidity, just didn't travel far enough. It was an organized car event (council permission etc) in which legal and illegal cars are aloud to go. Unfortunately I got my car of the trailer about 100meters to early, you see I didn't realize I was on a public road, I thought I was in the grounds where the event was happening, so as you do, I backed my car off the trailer and didn't think twice about a seat belt because I was driving roughly 100meters to park my car, that's when the policeman flagged me to the side of the road where he informed me I was breaking the law. I tried explaining to him that it was a simple mistake on my behalf but even so, I still got the tickets. Its a purpose built track car, not made for the road thus why it was on a trailer going to a legal event. I'd hardly call myself a boyracer, I haven't done a skid on the roads or any other boyracer activities since I left high school lol.
Pro-tip: A lot of dickhead cops get wood over having people kiss there arse, play along, be polite and apologetic (as much as it pains you) and they sometimes throw you some slack. The moment you lie or become rude, you're fucked.

The moment you lie or become rude, you're fucked.
That counts what ever the situation and who evers involved, cop or no cop.
Maybe they've had problems with BR's taking cars off trailers and doing burnouts etc. outside the event so thats why their clamping down on it?

Yup it does, but I don't go anymore, name just stuck tho.
Currently in the process of engine conversion etc. The old ca18de engine and auto trans has all come out, now have manual setup in, hydraulic handbreak, have a rb20det low km crate engine nearly ready to go in. Atm its just a standard 20det, but gonna get bigger injectors, turbo and a front facing plenum. Just got a new 500hp walbro fuel pump and my workmate is gonna set up a surge tank in the boot for me. Was wanting to go straight to a 25det and get my workmate to help me work that engine, but ended up getting the 20det because they're cheaper and its only for learning atm. Wait untill I get better at drifting before I upgrade to something more powerful. It's all a work in progress but being a diesel mechanic apparentice, my boss lets me use the workshop whenever I want which makes things 100x easier than tryna get under the car when its on axle stands n the garage haha.
so get the fuck over yourselves, and have a safe and fun new years!
this is derp typed cause im on my tablet.
credit where it's due, this guy is actually pretty awesome, so far he's demolished your stereotype with a very reasonable explanation, maybe he failed the attitude test which is why he got ticketed, but who hasn't (me - not the point) so then you attack the stickers he has on his car, I know some stickers for D1NZ are sponsors stickers so he has to run them. Then he posts about how he's only learning and taking it easy, fairly humble guy if you ask me.
don't forget about your cooling Idssmith, I've seen so many drift cars retire because they're over heating, pumping more gas, at a lower temperature, at a higher pressure, makes more heat, and a portion is still lost to the engine, drive train etc to finish first, first you have to finish, if it mean not installing the cooler, or downsizing your blower to another day it'll be better to keep the engine cool with a denser radiator, or ice cubes or liquid nitrogen!!!
to be honest, if any of the haters really want to hate on this guy you'd have a go at drifters for ruining the surface of circuits around NZ.....not that I'd expect you to know that, but i assure you, it's a bigger problem than a fucking sticker in his window.

franky are you related to the hamptons or just sponsored by them?
lolol
nah franky is sponsored by castrol, ryan was sponsored by castrol but hasn't changed his colours, I think cause of cost more than anything.
franky are you related to the hamptons or just sponsored by them?As Dave said, I am Sponsored by Honda NZ who in term are sponsored by Castrol, Hence Castrol Honda. We also own a Honda dealership in Invercargill, Hamptons were Honda dealers but now they aren't. Ryan was in the Castrol Honda team last year however there was some political stuff went on and now he isn't, also as Dave said it was cheaper to keep their bike painted the same so they left it like that.
An image from Hampton Downs in the weekens. (I am number 8). My weekend ended badly, with me high siding out of the final turn at about 150kmh, needless to say I am very sore at the moment, I count myself lucky as it could have been much much worse!

ouch .. didnt you just fix your bike as well....
i know how it feels... ankle and ribs...
break anything (bike or you)?
also what sort of deal can you get on leathers and helmet...
I walked away bruised and sore but that is it. I am counting my lucky stars! The bike is OK considering, just fairing damage etc it is pretty much fixed by now I am guessing. It was running really strong after the rebuild, I had qualified 4th (0.6 off pole) then the drought broke and it hammered down and I ate shit.
What sort of Helmet and leathers are you after, give me an idea of what you are after and I will see what I can come up with. I am sponsored by Shoei and Teknic so I might be able to get the supplier to cut a deal. I am away tomorrow morning to Taupo for the final round so won't be able to check till probably Tuesday when I get back to work.
Yeah insurance are covering it...
And i was looking at a shoei x1100 or qwest with tinted visor and a teknic 2 piece.
helmet i am an XS
and full suit i am about a 40
jacket about a 42 - and pants 30 in teknic sizes
go xr1100 then.. my new r1 arrives next week...
and some leathers.. all in pretty black if i can...
got about 1200 - 1600 to spend..
otherwise ill get me a hjc r-pha10 and some rst leathers....
Got to take my bike for a ride today :D
Granted it was only in a carpark. But was good to finally jump on and learn how to ride it.

i can point you to some good classes... also why no side covers on the bike?
Girlfriends dad is a member of the CMA(Christian Motorcycle Association) and he knows the right places to go to learn. Plus not to mention his 35+ years experience with bikes.
Covers were ripped off and lost when it was stolen, this was before I bought the bike. So hunting for them plus a fuel cap.
god danm get a fuel cap on there... just noticed the rag your asking for trouble...
what model bike i have some good parts contacts from builidng and rebuilding and vinning bikes over the years...
Haha yea, bit dodgy, so that'll be the first thing that needs attention. Also found it needs some fork seals as the current ones are starting to perish.
Model is a Suzuki Intruder 250cc, or just VL 250. Don't know the exact year, as I got it in '05, was stolen and recovered about 6 months prior to that and only has 1400km on the clock.
hmm cant find any parts with the guys i normally use.
your best bet might be to se if you can wangle a deal on this then use yours as spares while you learn.
