Red 34 near the casino with big calipers and the letters KMS in the rear quarter window? Silver R33 at Northbourne/Barry Drive about 9.30pm last night, too quick to see any details.

As said before: Get it in STOCK working order before improving it. Drive it regularly for mayb 6 months first so that you can A) learn the normal sounds/behaviour of the car, and B) fix all the boring parts that will break/fall out (because if they don't fall out of their own accord withint 6 months they WILL fall out as soon as you start modding it - unforeseen costs when you don't need it).

LOL. Permit me to express myself as eloquently as I think is possible: palmer, you're a knob with bells on. Please continue to futz around with your car while you don't know what you're dealing with. That way you'll kill it, and won't be on this forum to annoy the experienced and/or sensible people.

lol well I got there about 10 and I think we only stood about for 15 minutes before thinking screw this, "to warmth!" and when we got there the suggestion was made maybe we should have left a note under a rock hahahah oops!

Kicked out of maccas half an hour after close.. so sad lol

*drooooool* One day.... That head unit looks like something out of a submarine hahaha

I'll be out tonight to check out this new meeting point.

How does ESP go for dyno live displays compared to the dyno we used a while back in Phillip (can't remember the name, Christian was the 'contact' guy)

For the love of God (or some other Deity)... lock this #$%*)

Hrmmm mine's a Profec B-Spec II ... are your controllers the same? I think there's a few revisions?

Haha - for the sake of 'officialness' Can ride with me if u like Alex. Yay for non-fried boost controllers... 1. Tarmac- 2. Ex!$t3nZ 3. Bluprint 4. Gus- 5. CeJay 6. INVRTD 7. Frink & Bullet32 8.

Spotted a gunmetal grey R32 GTR turning right onto Coulter Drive today.... whosat? I was in the silver R33

lol everyone knows half of GTSTs posts are sarcastic

Turns out my boost controller was completely dead and doing nothing to control the coost - simply displaying current boost. Mechanic said it's usually caused by giving/receiving a jump start, which can short out the controller if you don't turn the parking lights on (to get shorted out first), but I'm pretty darn certain I didn't do either.... But with a new controller, it drivers perfectly again Funny thing is, as I was about to leave, one of the guys at the workshop on the phone was asked the person on the other end "... did u recently jump start it??" and nodded to me "yep... same issue" hahah. Weird... gonna keep an eye on it!

Search.

Either: 1) Take it back, take them for a ride, SHOW them what your unhappy with. OR 2) Take it to a Skyline specific mechanic who (hopefully) has a braincell under their hat and knows the car better.

Have T1Rs. I reckon there's better out there for the money. What exactly, I'm not sure yet though.

Congratulations

My profec makes the warnings noises when it goes red and the stock check engine flickers on and off at the same time. Very unnerving, as mine's been specifically tuned to run very safely, but I'm getting all the bells and whistles in my face when I just blat it a bit in traffic to get around someone!

I have a similar issue with my car, exact same combo as the OP, but greddy profec boost control. Rev too high and the boost alarm goes off. It's limited to 1.2, but goes up to 1.6 (not spiking, goes up and stays up). My engine check light also flickers (possibly just showing knock? I dunno). It was also perfectly fine for one month after the GTRS was installed (just recently), and now I'm getting this 5h1t. I hate not being able to put my foot down My car goes in for looking at (Trojan too!) very soon, I'll keep you up to date. John already had a fiddle with the boost, but it made no difference. Strangely, he says he has no issues with it on the dyno, yet I can make it happen whenever I want (ie rolling in 4th doing 60kph, then put your foot down - BAM, warnings/alarms). I'm sure he'll see it this time around. I'll be watching this thread.

So which edition of Ignition had the Texi on the DVD? I forgot all about this and would like to see if my car's in it at all.

Alex, I'd go have a chat to all the bars you can find... one of em's bound to be able to use an extra hand? esp since you have qualifications and experience

Turns out I didn't really have a boost issue, just that my greddy profec was upset by my turbo spooling up fast and making it think it was overboosting... or something to that effect... John fixed it by fiddling with the gain a bit. Still have the same power I think (yet to really give it a hard go and use the pantsometer ). I wouldn't be surprised if your issue is something else. Tell ya what though, a new diff feels pretty nice! Feels a bit more like a go-kart

Yep Zane, new diff and a retune for me. Apparently she's on the dyno as I type Been a while since I've been able to run it on full boost (not sure why, curious as to the reason). Anyway - can't wait! Alex: Eep... just go back and ask em to put em back on haha. They probably got distracted when they found the other stuff wrong! Coulda been worse
