[QUOTE=NeptuneGTR;447497]When are you going to walls anyways shawn, did you buy a complete engine??Ya I bought a complete engine, its in my garage right now. I am going to start putting it in within the next month forsure just gathering the needed parts. So you think Walls is the one to go to? Have they worked with rb's before? I will be giving them and Motion a call in the near future to speak with them

i plan on going down in the summer with jackie sometime, and i would like to bring my car, im going to go to the gretna border because the window is on the right hand side and it's a small border crossing, no more than 5 cars at a time...I get my car parts shipped there from the states (menkes parcel service)

[NeptuneGTR]

I think as long as you'r respectful and dont act sketchy they should let you in no problem.

I dont think you should have any problems at any boarder Travis, as long as you dont do anything stupid, remember we are guests in their country.

I just get a little annoyed at blanket statements that have no basis and sound like they are just made to make conversation instead of helping people out. Playing with cars costs alot of money, 10 times as much if you don't do the work yourself and go off on a wild goose chase with bad information.

Please keep your responses to things you actually know about and can help with, not speculation. I can hug you if needed............;P.



Jon.

exactly i know cars cost alot thats why i was playing it safe and saying i wouldnt do it on a rwd dyno cuz you never know but anyways i am sure he is greatful that he can do it locally

i dont doubt that he knows lots it just the way he had to like put me down to say it there is no need for it that is all

[NeptuneGTR]

Listen to Mr.Humper he knows what he's talking about, but I get what you where trying to say fox, better safe than sorry.

Man, that is the most rediculous thing I have ever heard. How on earth did you get that in your head?

Let me be very plain on this, a GTR is a RWD car with AWD capabilities......period. It is not a full time AWD car like a Scubbie or an EVO. You cannot screw up the AWD by pulling the AWD fuse and making some dyno pulls, you will not have an ill running car by setting up your tune in RWD, the engine doesn't care whether your car is FWD, RWD or AWD.......a proper tune is a proper tune (as long as you are not spinning the tires on the dyno).

If you want to tune your car then a twin roller, back eddy, dyno is up to the task. If you want to know how much power you are ACTUALLY making then you need to make a run on a large drum, back eddy dyno set to shootout mode, a DynoJet or your MPH at the drag strip. The twin rollers are a joke for giving accurate WHP, they just can't, no matter what the operator will tell you (unless you ignore the #'s and just want to see the HP and TQ curves).

holy buddy sorry i thought the car would pick up that its in rwd and when you get the tune then go back to awd it wouldnt run aswell... i dont own a gtr so i dont exactlly know i was just stating that just incase so he didnt waste his money

[shawnr204]

well i kinda need to know... other wise its a 8 hour drive compared to a 2 hour drive... if someone could confirm this that would be great

[Dragon Humper]

it wouldnt give your car a proper tune if you pull the fuse then get a dyno tune you are setting things up for teh best performance when in rwd but when you go back to awd your car wont run as good because it doesnt know whats going on now that it has to power the front wheels too
