Hey with the pipe that goes past/near the timing belt, did u have to cut the fan a little?

Thanx dude, Just to clarify is is better to put it to the hose that connects to ur boost gauge? Or better to put to the holse that connects to BOV/actuator?

So basically, u run this little hose to another hose and connect it via t-piece. Question is what hose u run it to?

Plz any1, post some pics of how u mounted a FMIC, would be much appreciated. Also any pics of the piping would be very usefull Thanx

this links not working, any1 gotta copy they can send me

i mean a 1cm in diameter hose like a vacuum line as u said. I don't have any afta market gauges. I got the piping from hypergear and it doesn't have instructions, its specific for my car. Yea the line was on the stock pipe but there is no hole in the new pipes to allow for this line.

The pipe that goes from the cooler to the throttle its got a 1cm diameter smaller hose connected to the side of it that goes to a t-junction and then i dunno where. Its neart the pwr steering liquid. My question is this: on the piping kit i got there is no hole there for that hose to go into. Does any1 know what that little hose is and do i have to connect it to the new piping? Thanx guys, ur help will be GREATLY appreciated

Installing a FMIC this week and just wondering onto what ppl mounted their coolers and what brackets will be needed. Car is r33 gtst. Also if any1 is feeling generous, can they send me pics of cooler + piping so i dont have to spend 30mins trying to find out which pipe goes where like we did on my mates 180. I know where n00bs!! Thanx pples

Intalling my cooler on Friday and might need to cut some of my front bar. Any1 know any helpful hints for cutting fibreglass. Never done it before. Ie what tool should i use, should i sand it after, anything u can add will be helpfull

Make model: Holden Commodore VK Year: 1985 Engine: straight 6 (202) auto Colour: Cream Condition: poor History: My mum bought this car when it was pretty new (1987 i think), drove it till 2002, at which time i started driving it. Blew the oil seals when it was overfilled with oil, before that only major mechanical problem was a faulty alternator which was replaced Notes: This car has blown oil seals. New engine for it will cost $100 - $200 (already researched). Interior needs work, body is in good nick except a large scratch on front left quater panel that is easiy fixed by a panel beater. This would be a nice project car, is u wanted to install a V8. Rust: A few patches, but can be easily fixed up Reason for selling: No time to fix it myself, (full time study), + already bought a line Price: $1000ono, no REG, no RWC make an offer!!

Condition: New Price: $1000 Reason for selling: Need cash, never put on car Any other questions: pm me PICS? Coming soon

Ehh ples, im afta some nice rims for my white r33. Im a very indecisive person tho, and am not sure which ones will best suit the car. Any1 got any good ideas? So far i reckon the 17 or 18' DriftR by ROH look alright but some say they look sh1t. Any advice will be good, thanx

will this pod fit into the stock airbox? Also, would u be interested in a swap with a genuine HKS Pod, it makes a very loud sicking noise!!!

If i later on decide to upgrade turbo, is it better to get two piece setup so that i just have to replace dump pipe and not front pipe, or should a say upgraded garett turbo be compatable with the dumppipe?

Interested in upgrading to 3" dump and front pipe but i got a few questions to ask b4 i purchase, if any1 has had experience with this. 1) Is there any diff b/w getting a 1 piece front/dump pipe or buying 2 separate pieces 2) Why is the diff between say a X-Force $200 and a $500 Catco one in terms of quality performace. 3) Does the split system (2 seperate pipes out of turbo) make any diff and is it worth getting it? I know its supposed to reduce turbulance or something, but is this fact or just a gimmick? 4) How long should a mild steel one last for? ie is it worth paying the extra $100 for stainless? 5) What else should i know Thanx guys, advice much appreciated

I heard that CF bonnets are dangerous and illegal. If ur engine catches fire, the carbon fibre melts or something. This true?

^^^ I second that

Yes most prob water pump or thermostat. Also check under car if water is leaking, but if the water is bubbling i would say thermostat

Most probably a faulty connection somewhere between ur battery and ecu. Car will stall if ECU has no power

I can see holden going out of business in Australia withis a few years. I used to love holdens and hate Ford but the XR6T absolutely shits on all these holden, both in performance and looks. I am greatly dissapointed. Maybe Toyota will bring out a V8 or a turbo car from is altona plant

Umm, obviously u dont know how the police and in general every single govt dept works. Pure incompetency. Ur complaint will be read by about 3 levels of management and then 2 months later be sent to the "offending" officers superiors. If by that time it hasn't been lost yet, the police will read it and laugh, then throw it in the bin. Then u will become a bigger target. The cops all protect each other. If they can protect proven corrupt offices with gangland connections, why wouldnt they protect a traffic guy. This thread is a good concept but instead of good/bad nice/mean register, we should just have a register of corrupt cops. Ie cop pulls u ova and says u were speeding when ur not. Cop threatens physical harm on you coz u question his authority/motives. Cop unprovokely assaults you. Cop delibrately picks on you for reasons of race/religion/sexual orientation/politacal opinion, cop does damage to ur vehicle to make it defectable.... u get the picture. This does not include cop picks on u for ur car type, cop gives u an EPA, cop asks u to leave public place

How do u know if its been put on properly on not. Mine got recently put on, its running ok but the timing belt is making this wierd noise. If i take it to a tuner, say AVO for example, would they check this out?

I reckon he took a boat to Indonesia, and his on his way via plane to Sao Paulo, Brazil now where he'll dissappear never to be seen by Australians again

Yes this kinda stuff gives wogs a bad name, but trust me im sure theres ppl out there that have bn robbed by caucasians While we're on the topic of crime, have ppl bn watching the news about Tonel Mokbel, what do u guys reckon happened to him. Did he run or is he the next victim of the Melbourne Gangland War saga?

Alot of ppl misunderstand this issue. Bout 70% of my mates are wogs and there is a large difference b/w when i go out with my aussie mates to my wog mates. If ne1 of us get into a fight when im with the wogs, then without hesitation my mates will jump in for me, no matter what, no hesitation, and i would do the same for them. However with aussie mates there is a much less of an inclination to jump in. I'm not saying 1 is better than the other but im just pointing out the differences. I donth think its just wogs, pretty sure asians, blacks and arabs do pretty much the same. Its coz we're a minority. I guess this shows that mayb the "ule's" target non-ule ppl, coz ive never had them ever start a punch on with me. Then again im not an ule, im a wog, but they prb are not sure so they dont start me. Also gdogzgtr, if u really are a cop as u say u r, i wouldn't be posting stuff like that coz u represent the police force here and ur views mayb interpretted by some as the views of the entire police force. Didnt they teach u this stuff in cop school? ...
