  1. Glad you like the car, when you get the chance drive it over and we can tinker with it. I have a spare Streering wheel to try on it. Does the relays in the engine bay click when you push the button?
  2. So, I would be better off twin-turbo-ing my RB25 with GTS-t turbo's.. interesting. I wonder how the stock ECU would handle it... Watch this space people
  3. Whoops, sory man, didint look at the A/C when we test-drove it D: I'll make it up to you later
  4. the sound you hear is probably from the Pod filter, its much louder than the factory airbox. The standard BOV's had a sucking whistle while the car was on boost, but that was just the way it was designed.
  5. Keep checking for air leaks to start off with, I kept finding cracks in the factory rubber in obscure places. Changed everything to Silicone joins.
  6. what does it do?
  7. There was a Midnight blue R32 GT-R in my apartment complex 2 nights ago, watched it drive out then come back later, havent seen it since. Plates "GTRRRR" Classic
  8. thats right, if you have a grid of numbers, let Excel graph them for you using a 3d-plane graph.
  9. Japanese CD's are the same as everyone elses.
  10. 7:50am, GTS-33R sitting on the Castle Hill Rd turn at Thompsons Corner with the bonnet up in the breakdown bay. Seemed to be waiting for NRMA or something.
  11. The GTR Bodykit works better than the Standard GTST ones, I think that 400r bumpers are getting a bit common though
  12. but you wont have the boost guage under the tacho anymore, the GTR had the guage in the center console
  13. What about a aftermarket ECU, there have been one or two Mines replacemenet (chipped?) ECU's ones flating around in the FS section, if thats all I need then I will pick one up and book myself in
  14. cant you just post pics here? I'm interested too btw
  15. The heater box? Do you mean the heater core, that goes on the firewall under the dash behind all the climate control crap? If so then I want Also, those seats are a little on the wrong side of "WTH?" $1600 for standard seats? Ive seen them at wreckers for $700 each, and set of aftermarket seats from Autobarn wont cost anywhere near that much.
  16. Can you specify if the manifiold will suit a RB20/RB25 or RB26. Not all manifolds will fit the others.
  17. Looks absolutely shmick, I love the color! gl with the sale, I want it but I would need to get rid of my GTS-t first
  18. Go to the Vineyards and go wine tasting. If your concerned about possible RBT's, You can be good and spit, or you can be bad and swallow Plus the Newcastle mob might join up with us.
  19. so you got a S2 part origionally and it didnt fit/work?
  20. Um, I stay in 5th gear at any speed I want, even if its 50kph. It dosent take that much to keep your speed on the flats. If I want more torque, I use the clutch and shift gears to whatever gear is appropriate (ie 4th or 3rd). When I'm done though it always goes back to 5th.
  21. Isnt the GT-R gearbox a higher capacity because it is 4wd?
  22. Wow, pipes made of Al-foil, neat!
  23. Um, the build plate will be different?
  24. bump for the % and effeciency of tyre tread, as opposed to the actual width of the rubber. I only have 235's at the back, and the car is happy going thru puddles at any speed when the tread is new and deep. Because of the camber at the back my insides wear much faster, and when the inside half of the rear tread gets past the minimum tread depth as indicated by the markers, then it aquaplanes and squirms and jiggles like crazy over ANY standing water, even driving over a light stream of sidewash (water flowing across the road due to surface camber etc) makes the car jerk disturbingly to the left and right at the rear as the wheels at the back become unsettled at anything approaching 90kph over this water. My brother tells me that its the HICAS going crazy because its wet, but I slap him on the head and point out that as each wheel at the back lifts up (They hardly ever both lift at the same time) the toe-in on each side will push the car towards the aquaplaning side, then vice versa as the water is traversed. At freeway speeds its enough to make the car lurch suddenly and shoot half into the next lane over and is as scary as heck. I have had my R33 for over 7 years and this is FACT, dont argue. Any tyre will plane if you hit enough water at a speed that wont let the water flow outwards and away from the tyre. If you mount directional wet tyres the wrong way around you are actually channeling the water into the center of the tread where it will bottleneck and start to lift the tyre, something you could deftinatly do without. Similarly, If your tread has a poor footprint (sides worn like mine) then the tyre becomes less and less effective as the flow patterns stop working properly. Think physics people!
  25. The turbo will go from Blow to Suck. Shouldnt do any damage. insert SpaceBalls reference here...
