Ya all need to back off a bit on the NZ.

There's a old phrase called "Bearding the Lion", and if you participate in that activity you need to beware of the consequences.

For those who are not familiar with that phrase, look here: http://www.usingenglish.com/referenc...s+own+den.html

Or just Google BEARDING THE LION

Just a little bit of humor and advice. Take it for what it's worth. Sort of like "if the shoe fits, wear it".

I am just full of it today.

 

"Can't we all just... get along... ?"



Personally, I like everybody that's ever helped me (or a lot of people in general) in one way or another.

 

yea man. Lay off.

NZC is so helpful and answers so many questions in detail and in full, which so many people dont do.

Jason has been so helpful to me over the past year and kiwi bias aside i think he must be one of the most helpful people on this forum

 

Ok, to add to the confusion. My car is a 1991 GTX from japan RHD etc etc. What is my stock boost level??

 

Liberal use of smilies is often overlooked...

 

Whelp I hope this is the end of this. I was wrong...I'm sorry. lol...JEEZE-O-PETES. Now can we hold hands and sing Kumbaya?

 

JUST as I thought! Rat's a raving, left wing Liberal, alky, wingnut!

I promise to not post on this thread anymore. Pinky promise. I'm done and outta this thread. No mas (in memory of Roberto Duran in Panama).

 

i know it is good to have factual info but sometimes guesses or ~ estimates aren't bad for general info since not everyone has the FSM open at all times on their desktop, i know i don't.



pffft, i guess i won't link to the other forum that i have 18k posts on then, heh.

 

JDM FC's ran way more boost, and made 50hp more than US ones. That's why J-spec engines are so cool.


Or not...

I keep trying to remind myself of that. I think I'm just misunderstood.

Stating boost to one tenth of a psi sounds like you know what you're talking about, rather than guessing or estimating. Not that you should be guessing or estimating the answer to questions like this anyway. Who the hell wants a technical forum full of conflicting and incorrect info?

Neither do I. I open it when I need it.

 

I just re-download it when I need to check something. Then again I have a job where I don't do anything so I have about 7.5 hours of free time in an 8 hour day. So... I have nothing better to do.

 

NZConvertible: JDM FC's ran way more boost, and made 50hp more than US ones. That's why J-spec engines are so cool.

Ive done countless hours of research on the JDM specs and i havent able to find any info suporting that claim. At least not for the s5.

 

^^^^ Dude i think he was kidding or are you too?? lol.... trip

 

Isnt it stated in the FAQ that S4s run 5.5 PSI of boost? Maybe someone should change that?

 

This is the bottom line. The question was raised and there was conflecting answers, FACTS ARE ALL THAT IS NEEDED. I hate it when some noob fires off with "Well I heard that bla bla bla bla...". Im generalizing, not calling anyone out, but if people dont have the facts STFU IMO.

 

All FC's of the same type (i.e. S4 or S5, Turbo or NA) have the same quoted power specs no matter where in the world they were sold. It stands to reason that if they made the same power then they used the same boost.

Sorry, just trying to lighten the mood.

 

Some of the confusion comes from the limited models such as the Anfini (Infini) IV which had 215hp.

 

Wow, You people are still on this? Let it go, its the Internet people NO reason to beat a dead horse.

 

if my memory is bad but close i figure it's still worth posting rather than not and the person not getting any help at all.

i also remember a time when i first started on this forum when NZ just about shooed me away with his glaring but, eh, now i just take it with a grain of salt. if you guys don't want my guesstimates then fine i can always just not post as i don't often spend the extra time digging up the exact info needed but use memory which is not always perfectly accurate and if need be then i dig deeper to find the exact info.

what i'm trying to say is you won't always get the perfect help you need but you will more often than not find someone who is helpful when people like NZ with the exact info needed are not around. yes he is helpful but like sandpaper there is a smooth surface and a very rough surface and you are dealing with both sides.

 

It's not about accuracy or guessing or whatever. Go back and read my first post and you'll see my frustration comes from the fact that the same mythical number keeps getting posted again and again and again. It's not guessing, it's not bad memory, it's repeating misinformation. Big difference.

 

Perfect example of, If something is repeated enough when the learner becomes knowlegable they will repeat what they have always been known to be right. This is how the recipe for Greek fire was lost thru the ages. For those who dont know what Greek fire is go here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_fire

 

I've been on here a long time, have done a lot of reading, and let me say that although Jason is sometimes let's say blunt, and will raise the hair on your back at times, he is a stickler for accuracy and is the go to guy when it comes down to the finish. You just need thick skin and count to 10 occasionally.
Don't ask how I know!!!!!!!!!

 

I've never seen NZ be a bitch. Maybe he's just never done anything in a thread I was involved in. The way I see it, as long as someone posts up good information, they're fine by me.

 

i always denote my memory with terms like: iirc, about, ~, etc. to help people realize it may not be perfectly accurate, i just hate it when people jump on my *** for it when just trying to help. sometimes a round number will work fine such as 6PSI vs 6.56PSI which kind of boggles me as to how they came up with such a perfect number for boost, this is not electricity so boost is going to vary widely and it may see that boost for a fraction of a second but never hold at that point.

yes the point on shooting down recurring bad info is not a bad thing though.
