  1. I think the rocket is a 2.3L mate. Anyway its great engine and a great bike, it corners very well for a bike its size but it is probably worth testing one with the pegs not the footboards as it makes a huge difference to the ride. Anyway the amount of raw power if you get the traction control removed, open up the exhausts and drop the cat converter is amazing. In terms of maintenance there is next to none, just do the usual servicing and keep it under warranty, a rear tire will be your biggest expense as you will chew them something stupid. As for aftermarket bits, tons of chrome goodies to bolt on and make it look pretty, your local dealership will have a range you can look through. You have a secondhand market for these too, so dont jump into a new one right away if you don't need to. Good luck!
  2. like this one? http://www.uniden.com/products/productdeta...product=GMRS680 i have one of these at home, if i can only find the charger
  3. will bring my scanner, but what type of UHF do people use?
  4. okay i got 2 other skylines with me too, im a spaz, so is this in the carpark of quix, or the carpark near quix and the bus stops?
  5. I meet that criteria, can think of a good couple roads to drive too, if a mountain run is being searched for. Can even think of a mad Mexican restaurant near Mudgee at the bottom of Springbrook if people want to eat after and want to link it all in.
  6. will we be able to spoon?
  7. andrew del was driving it i always lend my GTR out, while i have no license it keeps it being used yeah i have had tons of pipes blow off, the stock clamps are crap, i replaced them with some huge non worm style ones, about $5 ea but worth it, if you do them up too tight they crush the thin metal tho
  8. im not sure how to best answer your question sorry, maybe you should try a google search or a forum search
  9. Ow, yesterday my plugs were running a bit crap after my mate had borrowed the GTR, so I took it for a run up Mt beachmont, set the boost to limit at 1.2 bar as usual, and part way up the hill *BANG* the loudest what i thought was a backfire went off, but came from the front, the car was still runnning good, but as soon as i slowed down enough to use the 3-4rpm range it started running very rough so i assumed my plugs were just fowled a little more, anyway got home and discovered the pipe that takes air from the turbos and feeds it to the intercool had blown itself open! about a 270 degress split around it, the material reenforcement the only then that stopped it seperating further, anyway check the boost controller after and the highest i got it too was 1.19 bar, i have been up to 1.28 before. crazy stuff, fortuantally the boys at nizzpro had one lying around i could swap it with, then some petrol and a toothbrush to attack the plugs it like new again...
  10. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/HO...tml&st=100# my post form last time http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Rb...html&st=80# my dyno post i suppose when you look at that you will get 1-2kw in mid range, but seriously for $80 a wind up boost tee will make a hell of a lot more difference
  11. should do, my understanding may be wrong, but if you did two dyno runs and the only adjustment was the switch and they are 99.5% the same that means there is no difference right? ill look for the link of the graphs, may be on SDU
  12. I think the biggest concern s that car doesn't have any seats let alone a body, make for a shit comfort factor
  13. so true, if you have a GTR you will understand why the name 'skyline' has been raped so badly by gts and crap gts-ts (i admit there are some very nice examples out there too so dont get me wrong), that the name skyline no longer applies to the GTR. dream cars will always be dream cars to %98 of the population but for the 2% that can afford it, or the people who cant and wait until they are 20 years old and can afford, the car is more special
  14. why after we dyno'd and proved that this mod does nothing at all, do people still flood the thread and keep modding their cars to do it? maybe i missed something, has anyone else done a before and after dyno of this? or am i the only one who bothered to actually see if there were real results
  15. http://www.apexi-usa.com/pdfInstallation/8.pdf this has the wires from the loom, all i need now is to find a sendor and match the pins to the loom
  16. SWEET DOGS!!!!
  17. Hmmm... The speed sensor on a R32 takes the analog signal from the gearbox then sends that to the HICAS, ECU & Power Steer units. the 4WD sensors are wheel mounted from memory. Anyway, if you swapped instrument cluster, the new cluster may be working, but may have a faulty, damaged or missing speed sensor unit inside it! search for my name and speed sensor, there is a post on how to swap the sensors over, if you have the old one still I imagine you should be able to swap sensors and fix the problem in under an hour!!! If the heavy steering and hicas problem has come about since the speedo swap this would make sense, and also stop the data going to the ECU for your powerfc, but if the problem had been there for a long time i imagine it is your loom that is damaged. Good luck!!!
  18. thanks for all the help guys! Just to clarify the EL2 will need re-wiring to suit, but a EL1 should be a direct plug and play?
  19. Clearing out the garage and have a couple things that didn't go on Ebay. All parts are for a R33 GTSt Coupe (A bluey green colour (been told its tourqouse)) and all are located on the Gold Coast in QLD! $50 Rear bumper ONLY - Its grey around the bottom bit, a couple scartches but in good condition. $80 Exhaust from AFTER the cat converter. Usual scrapes and dings $80 Factory R33 S1 Wing. With light working and all wiring. Great condition $100 Dash out of my R33 coupe, possibly fit a sedan also. Has a 10cm surface cut from up to down on passengers side (where airbag or TV would go), suits a retrim. Contact: Mobile: 0407966563 PM Me! Email me: [email protected] (last resort)
  20. what type pf skyline? most nissans havea grey rectangular diagnostics cable for 'consult' near the fuse box in cabin, search for consult for a picture, its about 4cm x 1cm long
  21. Hi, When I got my car there was an Apexi EL Boost guage in the glove box, its the bar type, and on the back is a 3 pin and a 5 pin connector for a plug, but no actual point for the air. the part number on the bacdk is APE-13485 I assume this is for a system controlled by a computer, does anyone know what type of computer and where i could look at sourcing one?
  22. ensure the ECU in the boot was left in. if you dont like the hicas light, removed the instruments (5 min job) and talk the bulb out
  23. thanks mate, 25 (sun sensor) wasnt working, in my garage this is to be expected, but there was a 4c difference from inside and outside so ill see how she runs in the day today!
  24. there is nothing more fun on a sunday afternoon than taking your cat off your cat, smashing out the insides with a hammer and screwdriver and bolting it back it... makes a hell of a difference and its hard to notice you have done it GUTTING A CAT
  25. hehe its FEEKEN COLD or FEEKIN HOT can someone guide me to the aircon diagnostics link? i searched, but feel retarded today
