im going to go for a few runs in March here, never actually draged on the strip before, can someone give a noob a rundown on staging, burnouts ( are they even needed ) ? tyre pressures ect specific to willowbank ? Also what is needed to run, just a helmet? what spec does it need to be?

im in, good cause

Not sure about the lip but the rest yes

White 33 with SAU sticker on rear window driving though north Ipswich about 30 min ago .... any idea who this is ?

Really tidy black 4 door 34 on centenary tonight southbound and a Green / Fluro green 2 tone 34 NA as well that I used to see lots around Springfield lakes

found out what the issue was, it was configured for "open" mode, switched to "Closed" and it all works as it should, no idea of the difference between these 2 tbh, the manual is terrible and makes no sense. might not be stock ECU after a bit more playing today as it will boost to 15psi without fuel cut, ah the joys of second hand car buying, no idea of the prievious mods .... And Jez I eventually will, just working out my options of a custom tune, but thats a discussion for another thread

pm me with pics if you are selling, to suit 33 gtst, with or without tyres not really worried about that part ! Thanks

Hi I suspect I have a faulty EBC but not sure, just ironing out the bugs with this car since I have purchaced it here is the hardware involved Gizzmo MS-2 EBC GCG High Flow turbo Stock ECU Engine full rebuild around 10,000km ago (decked and o-ringed) With the MS-2 off always boosts to 7psi without fail, I can up the duty cycle (0-100) upto about 50 without any changes, between 50 and 65 raises nicely upto 11psi , above that I get nothing and hard pulls in 3rd or 4th gear I occasionally get drops back to 7 psi, no matter how high I raise the duty above 65 the boost will not raise any higher than 11 psi. I started messing with the gain and got a nice point around 50% where I like it but tried it at 70 to force some short overboosting and sure enough it will spike briefly to around 16psi ...... I am guessing the solenoid is faulty but is there something else I should be checking? I am aiming for around 14psi .....or is it the stock wastegate sticking? Not sure how far I can go on the stock one or what else could be causing it. I have no idea of the age of the MS-2 I have been told its approx 18 months installed by a professional by the last owner but the lines were cable tied onto the solenoid and were not even trimmed lol.

http://www.skylinesa...3s-without-abs/ My 33 S2 does not have abs but in a past life it was an NA as well but yes defectable, not sure how they could actually tell if you originally had abs or not though

ah that would explain it, how do I tell if its mechanical lsd? I am guessing jack up and spin wheels but what am I looking for?

friend of mine got under the back of my recently acquired R33 and we found out the hicas has already been removed (winning) He also said its not an R33 rear end or it has been modified alot. I have never actually seen under the back of an R33, I know someone modded lots on this car many years ago it was actually originally an NA Auto GTS but has been modded to be RB25det 5 speed - has 2 after market swaybars under the front as well as many non standard suspension parts, abs has been removed as well ... not sure about this rear end though .... does it look legit to anyone in the know? The diff seems very tight and makes some funky noises at full lock so it may have some internal damage but no noise for usual driving. Sorry if the pics are not enough I dont really know what I should be looking at when it comes to rear ends apart from the obvious parts. IF anyone could help me ID the origin of any of this and how much is non standard that would help me out lots! Obviously the coilovers and exhaust but apart from that Im not sure

rear end effects?

yeah wish I went now, my night was total fail in ippy lol

nvm just made a new account
