  1. Errrr... thats a MSD igntion setup
  2. As the title says.. I am looking for a full set of standard R33 GTS-T suspension. If you have any please post here or preferably send me a PM. Thanks,
  3. The GTR turbo is a T25 flange turbo (or T28?) so it won't fit on your existing manifold. If its a standard turbo it will actually be smaller than your existing turbo on your car at the moment. Factory GTR's use twin turbo's so have no need for using two large turbo's. So in response, no don't put it on. Its smaller and won't fit Cheers Save your money and buy a GT30 turbo kit for your car
  4. Sorry ill have to join in.. not a fan at all. Looks like an overworked GTS-T
  5. The pipe collapsing on itself is not to do with how much power the car is making but rather how much air it is pulling through...
  6. You could get a seriously nice R32 GTS-T for that amount of money
  7. Hey, I know you can buy front bumper lip kits for R33 Series 2 skyline front bumpers. But does anyone know if you can buy bumper lip kits for R32's? I've seen a very few number of R32 skylines running around with a lip for the rear bumper which covers up the black line at the base of the bumper and extends it lower to the ground. Anyone know of any places in australia that do lip kits?
  8. I've fitted a set of R33 GTR brembo's to a R33 GTS-T before and was a straight boltup pretty much and I imagine the mounting brackets are exactly the same to the R32 GTR. All that was needed for the conversion was larger rotors and the original brakes lines from the 33 GTR. If the lines weren't included they can be done up easily at most brake joints. Plus you might as well upgrade to braided lines if your going to the trouble of doing so. Braided lines made in Australia are legal as well, as far as I know.
  9. Use the original plenum and heat wrap the piping from the cool side of the intercooler to the plenum. Works an absolute treat in keeping temperature down. Forward facing plenum IMO is really pretty pointless "wank" factor sort of execise. I would really only use one in the case of a conversion where motor height was an issue. However I have heard of the Greddy one making some minor gains but again its not really worth it for the price. As R31nismoid said money can be spent a lot better elsewhere
  10. Most of the bad threads to do with Prestige and J-spec have all been deleted. Mainly because J-spec sponsors SAU (not sure if Prestige does). That said J-spec are reasonably good though. See your in Perth.. PM sent
  11. They can charge as much as they want for them because no one else makes them. AFAIK they only fit GTR's as well. Not GTS models
  12. Nope wont fit. I imagine your would have better luck trying to fit R33 GTR or R32 GTR standard suspension to the R34. And even that wont fit in directly
  13. Well there are ways around SEVS for sure. Easiest way is importing it as a personal import if you know someone who is coming from Japan to come and live in australia. R33's aren't bad cars at all for drifting. Maybe a tad heavy but I know of a lot of people who use them and drift very well in them. Only reason people tend to stay away from them is because they are once again pretty expensive cars to buy and a bit more to fix as well. RB26's are more expensive because of the high initial cost of the motor itself. Internals aren't too bad but when it comes to buying turbos, cost of installation and other factors they tend to be a lot more expensive. By all means a RB26 would be better for drifting because of its twin turbo setup giving it superior low down torque but your not going to make that much more power than what a RB25 would considering its price.
  14. Don't bag it til you have driven one. They XR6T range are seriously quick cars in a straight line. A mate of mine has a XR6T ute which was dynoed at 290rwkw with injectors, valve springs, A bigger FMIC, flash tune, bit of boost and a full exhaust. Been for a drive in it and its a serious piece of hardware. Great motors..
  15. Autoworx in Wangara do compliance for R32's. They also have some basic standard parts that you can use to get your car complied. Give them a ring and speak to Paul. Imports 101 also do compliancing for R32's as well I believe so speak to Danny there.
  16. The RB25 can sustain more than enough power for your drifting needs. They can be run reliably on roughly 350hp day in day out on stock internals if you give it lots of TLC. Which is more than enough power for drifting. And no offense man it sounds like you haven't really done much drifting before in the past. So drifting on something with a bit less power is a good place to start. A S13 with a black top SR (late model 180sx's) are a very good platform to start drifting on.
  17. Nah there the same.. bolted up an exhaust which was fitted to a R32 coupe to a 4 door last week. Unless the factory exhausts are different they are exactly the same
  18. Looks great when done properly. Looks a treat on the side indicators of white R32's
  19. Its going on my drift car and its for the indicators
  20. So its sprayed on the inside of the lens not the outside? Correct?
  21. One thing I've always been curious about is how people tint there tail lights, indicators etc. Is there a particular paint you can buy or a particular process you use use to tint/smoke lights or indicators? Or is it something that needs to be done professionally? In most cases I've looked at it almost looks like a dark clear paint has been spray over the top of it (or inside it?) to give it its finish. Cheers,
  22. Ok I'm going to settle this once and for all.. The fluttering you here is the pressure created by the turbo changing directions and flowing back through the turbo when the throttle snaps shut. The factory BOV's have a weak spring to let through air at idle so that fluttering does not occur. This air recirculates from the cross over pipe and goes through a pipe which is realeased in front of the turbo again. Disconnect this pipe and vent the factory BOV to atmosphere and you will create a idling problem on the car. You will NOT have a true turbo flutter created through a aftermarket BOV. The only time it will create a noise like a flutter is if the spring is stuffed in the BOV or if the BOV is created to make a similar noise to a flutter. It sounds to me like you BOV is way too tight, loosen it off and it will fix it. You cant hear a flutter through a air box so hence why you couldnt hear it before.
