**Bump** Please help.....

Congrates on your purchase Brutus! I will not be attending this track day (due to all expenses), but hope to catch up with you all another day.

Prior Arrangements too!

As stated b4. I also give BMT 2 thumbs up! But EAS is more convenient for me. Even though BMT are only 2 min. from my work, i have a company van, so it is not practical. Sam have you done any work on the new Wolf 3d? Car is going good, but still not 100% happy. Just turned the closed cloop system on and now i am getting 60km less per tank, than when it was off. :confused:

Just putting the icing on it now

He actually books the dyno from next door, so a date has to be arranged prior. EAS Performance http://www.easperformance.com 11 Victory Rd., Airport West Tel: 9330 2001 Ask for Vic. Tell him Alan refered you to them

I have liked the stealth wing for the past 2 yrs, I just prefer to spend my money on power modes rather than cosmetics . Ps: Have recently invested money in property, so the turbo/engine upgrade has been put on hold

If you are from the west you have: - EAS Performance (Have been servicing my car for the last 2 yrs.) Airport West -BMT (Have a very good reputation on these forums, top blokes too.) Thornbury

GO Stealth! LIke a 1000 other people didn't think of the stealth wing b4 you inasnt.

I use my turbo timer to warm up the engine, b4 driving. Turn the engine on, set timer for 10 min, take keys out, lock doors, go back inside house, get ready to go out, eng. is nice and warm and has suffered the least stress. (most wear and stress on an eng. is caused with-in the first 10 min.) If i take longer to get ready, the eng. turns off, but will still be at full operating temp. by the time i get in the car. PS: Don't forget to put the key into the ignition b4 putting car into gear.

I have started another thread, looking for a 2-way mechanical LSD. Would like to know, (from people that have the mechanical knowledge) can a R33 Nismo mechanical diff. designed for a GTR fit straight on a GTS-T? Your help would be greatly appreciated Alan

Please post FULL details, or email them to me [email protected]

Tried to PM you but your mail box is full! So i will resort to posting here: How is the new clutch going, in your GTR? It's Alan here, from EAS Performance. Will that GTR diff fit a GTST? How much are you asking? What is the condition of it, etc? Thanks Alan

Take a 32, 33 and 34 GTR to his yard, and ask him to explain.

Would like to buy a GOOD, 2nd hand, 2-way mechanical LSD. If anyone has one, or knows a business that sells them, please post here or PM me. THANKS Alan

Every time i try to veiw this site, i get the following: "The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings." What do i need to do? Please help

COULD NOT AGREE WITH YA MORE!, well said. :uh-huh:

darkstar: I really appreciate you info. From Hehehe's first post, i got the impression that this was done by a friend "backyard style". It is obvious, that you know more than i, about this matter and appoligise if i offended you. Having said this thou, i still beleive it is a bad idea to block the bov in a R33 due to the increased load on the "ceramic" exhaust wheel. I have known that race cars do not use bov, and the reasons/advantages behind it. But, race cars have the financial advantages of getting things replaced when needed. I beleive that for street use, on a non-to-lightly modified car, the gains are not benifical, especially when weighing it up against the increased risk of spinning off the "ceramic" turbine wheel from it's shaft. If Nissan found it benifical and cheaper to have no bov, the tunning of the ecu may have overcome the epa issue. In Ending: We all learn from different sources, experiences and interpritations. At the end one must make his/her own decisions and live with the outcomes .

I WILL KEEP WELL AWAY FROM "ATS" in tulla.!!!!! I have heard and seen a lot of bodgey 5hit come out of that place. Just my advice.

This is not to say that Jap. seat belts are not good, just that the government needs to raise the salaries some how.

My friend is an active member with "Exclusive". I actually took my car to one of their meets. Was a good day, with a diverse range of cars and very organised. Personally, as i am from the west, i will stay with "SAU" and "Northern Street Cruizers". As previously stated, we have a great bunch of people and are quite organised. Lately the members on this forum have been organising a few events and also about to kick off an offical club (one day soon).

For a proper compliance, ALL seat belts must be replaced to meet Australian standards.

The bov is designed to expell the compressed air when the throttle is closed, by doing this it keeps the turbo spinning between shifts. Now, if the hole is blocked the air can only force it's way through the turbo (in the opposite direction) and out the air pod. Also, this is done while the exhaust turbine is trying to spin the turbo in it's proper direction. So you have air passing in opposite directions, trying to spin the turbines in opposite directions, so eventually you will get excessive wary leading to a blown turbo. The way i look at things: All parts cost money, if nissan did not feel it neccessary to fit a bov they wouldn't. Whether the bov is plumbed back to the intake, or expelled into the atmosphere is irrelavant, the later only being an illegal EPA issue. Hope this helps

What a friend, they have just shown you how to f**k up ya turbo. Excuse the sarcasim, but people who don't know much about turbo's and start playin around with other people's cars really annoy me. The "flutter" noise you hear is the air bouncing off the throttle body (as it shuts) then re-entering the turbo, in the opposite direction. This will gradually damage any turbo, but with the r33's the exhaust turbine is ceramic, so it will blow it much faster.

R33 turbos are illegal, due to power-to-weight ratios. Why do you think you can get exemptions from this?
