  1. ive got 17x8.5's on the front (235/45ZR17) and 17x9's on the rear (255/40ZR17), and its relatively low.
  2. watched it yesterday, good shit
  3. ive got 2 bootlids, ill have a look and see if i can spare one.
  4. rofl.. basically just a constant 'droning' sound that can be heard inside the cabin.
  5. i have had redline lightweight shockproof in my 33's gear box for a good 12 months, never a problem.
  6. im still waiting too
  7. i forgot, got the last half our tho... that supercharged(i think?) S13 went alright, sounded mint
  8. the wastegate was plumbed after the intercooler, and before the BOV, and the throttle. edit: i dont think i have the normal 2 stage boost anymore, ive got a microtech lt12 so it used to hit high boost all the time. old fmic was a ARC 450x300x60, but it ran the old piping, so maybe the 180 degree bend on the return side caused a bit of pressure drop?
  9. after fitting my 600x300x75 fmic, and boost controller... my car is hitting approx 15psi or more.. i used to have a 450x300x75 fmic, and no boost controller.. car used to hit 10psi, and the bov made a tad quieter than normal sound.. after fitting the 600x300x75 and boost controller (no adjustment made, tried it without it too), car got up to 0.5 bar as per normal, then it rocketed up to a bar, and the blow off valve makes a very loud noise on throttle release now... edit: this isnt flat footing it either, this is 3/4 throttle up to about 5000RPM, then changing gears. only thing i can think of is the hose from my boost controller/bleed valve is a smaller internal size than ther old hose, as it was too short.. is the smaller hose restricting flow to the wastegate, thus pushing boost up? any ideas would be great, cheers!
  10. 3" metal holesaw did it piece of piss, took all of 2 mins. even put some rubber tubing around the edge to make it looks perdy
  11. i got a 3" metal holesaw from work, cheap cheap
  12. im making the pipng myself, but wanted to see where hybrid put the hole, saves me drilling something wrong cheers ossie!
  13. anyone got a online copy/link to the hybrid FMIC instructions for a R33 GTS25t? im trying to figure out where to drill the hole, dont want to get it wrong cheers.
  14. yeah.. its just i have 17x9s wearing 255's on the back, and 17x8.5" wearing 235's on the front... most cops dont care, but the pits didnt like it.
  15. going off the spec sheet i have... R32 gtst is 1320, R33 gtst is 1390 (mine says 1350 on the plate tho?) and, R34 gt-t is 1410. anyone like to confirm/deny this?
  16. another update.. put some 'sistafoam' under the fibreglass, basically an expanding foam, gives it a bit more strength and will keep it all solid.. no pictures, but i put it in the sides which i havent glassed/bogged up yet
  17. wondering if anyone could borrow me a legal set of rims+tyres to suit an R33, need to be same width, prefer 17/18" 225/235 only need for a day or 2 next week while i run my car over the pits. cheers!
  18. ooops.. just noticed my mistake.. meant about $350..

  22. or you have the ones where 4 people enter at once, or people think you dont have to stop, or atleast slow down, at a round-a-bout regardless of traffic at other entrances..
  23. i had that in mandurah once.. me in my skyline, mate in his wrx, and another friend in his turbo leone (low 12 second car..) a commodore *passenger* was walking back to his car.. got in, told his mate to go quickly, and yelled out 'get a real car dickheads!' yes, an old V6 commodore is a great car.... and another time driving down scarb. beach road at about 10pm on a thursday night, cops sitting on the car dealerships side of the road, i was doing probably 55 in a 60 zone... one of them yells out 'SLOW DOWN YOU IDIOT'....
