  1. Has anyone got any experience with running 5% ethanol? All i can seem to find is 'Nissan recommends that you don't run it in any of it's vehicles' - Is there any hard evidence to say one way or the other. Normally i wouldn't consider it, but when it's 4c/L cheaper than ULP and i'm broke, it's starts to look appetizing.
  2. Has anyone had any trouble with the aircon or anything? recently my 33's developed a clicking noise from inside the dash when i turn the power on, but it seems to happen randomly. Any suggestions on what it could be?
  3. Are you sure stock piping is 2.25"? I measured mine this morning for the new muffler and it came out to be a fraction less than 2" - the guy who imported it told me it was "dead stock". Why would anyone put on an exhaust which was smaller than stock (and mild steel to boot)?
  4. Do you actually need a cannon? i'm not that well educated on the subject, but i thought cannons were for turbo cars, NA versions needed something more substantial to create sufficient backpressure to run well (or something like that). Anyone feel free to tell me otherwise, i'm in the market for a new exhaust system and don't want a loud, droning note.
  5. Any pics of it actually on the car? (or any other car for that matter?)
  6. Not to slander anyone, but why is it that after sifting through 10 pages of useless search results, i ask the question and get told to do a search. A few days later someone asks a reworded or similar version of my question and nothing is said? Massively frustrating.
  7. Anyone know what the stock bulbs are in an R33? (H1,H3,H4...) and are they adjustable, my highs are really narrow and far up the road.
  8. Anyone know any decent mechanics down Geelong, Warrnambool way? I took my R33 to the local Nissan dealer, and other than overcharge me, they didn't really fix the problem. Any suggestions for someone who knows their way around an RB25?
  9. For future reference, Alpine Type S 6.5" splits fit.
  10. What about Alpine 6.5" (Type S)? Anyone know if they fit?
  11. Are spacers for the fronts and rears nessecary at all? i'm getting 4x6.5" speakers put in next week but don't want them sticking outta my doors or off my parcel shelf. The factory look'll do for me (less inviting for theives!!)
  12. Well the alternative i was looking at was one on the nemesis line made by Cypher, read somewhere that they were designed from looking at HKS, A'pexi, etc designs and adapting them for best results. Would those be a decent equivalent?
  13. Anyone had any experience with buying parts off ebay? I'm tossing up whether or not i want to take a chance on ebay parts (specifically "N*Power") or pay over twice the price for a more recognised brand. Any suggestions?
  14. Is that 110kw for a RB25DE though? or is it a DET?
  15. Does anyone know what the power output is for a stock R33 GTS (RB25) is? Had an argument with a couple of mates today on who'd win at the end of a standing quarter/kilometre, my R33, a VL (non turbo) or a 4L EB Falcon?
  16. Mine's only supposedly done 56,000km but. How would i check if it is the timing belt?
  17. Recently my engine developed this annoying rattle at 1500rpm or so. It seems to disappear once the revs climb, and it doesn't do it at idle, only in the 1500-2000 rev range. Any idea what this could be? It sounds like it's coming from the front of the motor, but i'm not sure if it's from the top or from the pulleys and belts at the base.
  18. I found out what it may have been, my mirrors were resprayed the other week, if they weren't properly reconnected (so the motor doesn't work) how would i get in there to check? What should it look like?
  19. Can anyone help me? You know how the driver and passenger side mirrors can fold inwards? Well the motor in the driver's side mirror died today and now it's stuck facing inwards. The tilt adjust for the mirror itself is fine, just the housing is stuck. Is there a way to manually move it back????
