  1. Soon, once i upgrade my fuel system for the turbo.
  2. If ya notice and have proof it wasn't broken b4. Also what about scratches? Plus i had to remove the parcel shelf anyway, to fit the speaker covers, and relocate the child retraint.
  3. Stock fuel pump will handle it no problems. But if you have a micro thought about a bigger turbo, go the bigger pump, only to save you money in the long run.
  4. Take your time looking for the right car! At the end of the day you don't want to be forking out extra $$ to fix your pride and joy. It took me about 6-8 months of solid looking (be it different models included) to find a neat/clean 100% stock (read unthrashed, but on the other hand more expensive to modify) R33. Take someone who knows about these cars and can drive them, thus can tell it is up to standard. My mate took mine for the test drive, i was in the passenger seat and the ower in the back. Once the testing was over and we were happy with the performance, i drove it to ensure i was comfortable in it.
  5. I have seen a car run BIG turbo without upgrade to his ecu (not sure about fuel system), it is now sitting in the mechanics w/shop with blown motor and turbo. He was told to leave the car as it was until the wolf was plugged in. Not satisfied with the power (and knowing it's potential) this guy started stuffing around with boost, etc. Then decides to take it for a thrash with his mates. Motor blew and fired something into the exhaust turbine of his newly hi-flow/reconditioned ($2200, 450hp) turbo. Moral of the story, invest in the support systems first or else you WILL end up spending more. Plus, a replacement ecu will give you power gains throught the whole rev. range. I know, i have one and was surpprised with the differance.
  6. Sorry to hear that buddy!! These cops couldn't find anything big to pick on, so they have to come up with some bull5h1t!! HOPE YOU GET JUSTICE! Alan
  7. OK decided to remove all trim around glass. This is what i done: -Rear seats -Parcel shelf -Rear speakers -Rear arm rest panels -Rear side/roof panels (the ones that go round the triangular windows. To be done soon: -Front door trims -Front speakers All these thing were relatively easy to remove and only took me 2hrs with alot of care.

    new wheels!

    Nice rims! But, if Donnellans sells them for $5K (for example) you should be able to pick them up for $3K elsewhere. I live in Melb. and found them VERY expensive for the same product. Be patient and look around! My 2c

    Piston Muncher Response

    R31Nismoid, Thanks for your reply, but i saw the other thread after i posted this one.
  17. a thread is already on this topic, do a SEARCH
  18. DJ, Can you do us another small favour and ask the guys at Tint-a-car what they remove out of the car to tint the windows. ie:Parcel shelf, rear seats, door trims, trim around rear quarter windows, etc. As i would like (and i am sure a couple other people may feel the same) to take these items out slowly and carefully myself. Thanks BUDDY for your patience Alan
  19. Brad, Sincerest condolences, to you and all your family. May he rest in eternal peace. Alan C.

    The next cruise????

    This tuesday i have my "Northern Street Cruizers" monthly meeting. There has been talk about an "observation cruise" that we might be running as a club. ALL are invited, to join in. Basically what makes this cruise different is that from the meeting point each car is given a map/directions then are also given a set of questions that must be answered as you are completing the cruise. At the final destination a bbq (supplied by N.S.C., i think) and meet will happen. The questioniars will be added up, and prizes will be given for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places (cars that had the most correct answers). It is not too easy as a few tricky questions are thrown in to seperate the field. I will put out a THREAD after tuesday's meet, and gauge everyones interest. There will be one set route (as questions relate to what you 'observe' as you cruise). A small fee will apply to cover costs of prizes, bbq and a little profit for the club. This profit will be going to organising a DECA day at shepparton. We still intend of doing it! but need the funds first. That's when we could have a lot of driftin fun , legally!!

    yay new wheels!!!

    Your ride looks sweeeeeet! Rims always set a car off, mine would look stock if it wasn't for the rims PS: how the f@rk did that d**khead (piston muncher) mistake a ride like that for an undercover!:confused: C ya around Alan
  22. Why is he still a member??
  23. You have alot of BALLS buddy (reads stupidity), you invite us to come to your cruises and bail b4 we see ya! For your last cruise you claimed to get 30 cars, BULL5H1T!! You are trying to say that 30 cars rocked up b4 the meeting time of 9:30-10:00. I have been to, and organized (even b4 i was a member of SAU) alot of cruizes, and you will be lucky to get 2 cars rocking up b4 meeting time, then most will come during stated interval and a few after the cruise was suppose to start. LOWLUX stated that he was coming by to check it out, so where the F@RK did you come up with him being an undercover, especially when we told you that he is a trusted member of SAU. I have never meet him (yet) but have full confidance in his credability! Twice you organised a cruise! Twice you F@RKED up! Twice you posted some bull5h1t story/excuse! AND ZERO times you appolagised!
  24. We were trying to find a good place to take a pic, unfortunately everywhere was busy (good weather and everyone at the beach). We got sick of looking and decided to cruise home. No one had a digi cam either, i just had a disposable.
  25. :bs!: :slap: NO! This is what happens when you organise a cruise, in your first post, and f@rk it up. People doen't trust you, thus you have no-one turn up for your second cruise. Piston muncher should join a cruise organised by an established member, to regain some credability. PS: WE ALL KNOW THA WESTSIDE IS THA BEST SIDE!
