Hi All, Apoligies if this is not posted in the correct section. Here's the run down on what my car is doing... About a week ago when I was on my way back from Parramatta, my car started (this is just driving normally, no boosting) started jolting forwards and backwards like I was a learner bunny hopping. I couldnt accelerate through it and when I tried it just got worse, the revs were flucuating and a big black cloud of smoke came out the back of the exhaust, I drove around the corner and the car turned itself off. I managed to pull over, checked under bonnet and nothing seemed out of place, I turned the car off for a little while, it started back up fine. This happened a few times on the trip home... When the car is at idle, the revs fluctuate between 1000rpm-500rmp, then below 500rpm then eventually the car dies and turns off. This problems happens intermittantly, not 24/7 when I drive. I took it to my mechanic who hooked it up to the comp, determined the problem to be a faulty boost controller which they removed and gave back to me (this is a GFB Boost T). Picked the car up yesterday afternoon... Got no more than 5km down the road and LOW AND BEHOLD same problem, just worse! They seem to think that there is a hissing sound coming from my engine where is may be air leaking from somewhere... Any thoughts guys, this is frustrating the hell out of me, help would be appreciated.

Yup that's what I did this time, mine was all due 23rd december!

Spotted I think JAS 25 T or something like that last night in parramatta

Spotted a black S2 R33 this morning on GWH near Colyton, tried to wave and see who it was but your tint was too dark on a gloomy day lol
-
Hi, I'm after the passenger's side window please, how much and is there tint on it already? thanks
-
That was not me Albert lol... Maybe someone has a numberplate like mine around! I also spotted last night near Ripples/Woolies in St Marys a black R34 GTT, looked tidy.

Through the passenger's side window, they used a flat head screw driver to pop the window out of the seal and pulled it out a little, slid their hand in and unlock the door. All I had to do was re-sit the window in the frame and it closes snugly again.

Hi all... Well the car is all fixed, it's back on the road with avengance!! The issue was a blown ignition fuse right up in the boot where the battery is!! So here's a funny little equation much like the mastercard ads lol: Purchase interior parts off wrecking R33 and ignition barrel- $150 Print out 491 page Nissan workshop manual from workplace- $0 Purchase new ignition fuse- $10 Have your boyfriend who is an electrician re-wire & solder- $0 Not paying $2100 in excess for making a claim on your insurance.... PRICELESS!!

Hi All, After a recent attempt to steal my car, some idiots tried to hotwire it and completely chopped and messed up all the wiring! The issue I am having is... I have all power and accesories coming on but they have either blown a fuse somewhere or is there an anti theft locking system that the car automatically does if the wires are chopped? I just cant get the car started, I've checked the computer which all seems fine, power is on but the damn thing just wont start! Any input would be appreciated as I would really love to get my car back on the road. Thanks.

Hey all, Just a quick update... All the interior parts are back in the car with a new ignition barrell etc, many thanks to Edwin_Skyline for letting me rip apart his interior!! Quick question though... Accessories are working and pretty much all the norm however the car still wont start, it looks like a fuse has been blown as I ripped out the computer and all looks fine there. Does anyone know if there is a common fuse that blows if someone tries to hotwire your car? Thanks
-
Hey skyline boy that'd be awesome if you can find it! Even if you can't scan it up I'm Penrith way too so I could drop past if need be Thanks
-
I really need some help here guys... Does anyone know where I can find a wiring diagram for an R33 GTS-T. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Just a quick update... The cops have been around to fingerprint the car... They actually got a crapload of different fingerprints off the car! I honestly hope they do find the A-hole that did this. Even though I don't get anything financial wise out of it, I might at least be able to get the satisfaction knowing they got BUSTED!

No security cameras, it's the car park closest to the Wenty Pub, council one out the back of that. The most annoying this is that who ever it was had the balls to do it in broad daylight, and that car park isn't quiet, people walk/drive through all the time!! It's disappointing no one thought to do or say anything if they did walk past and see some cock sitting in my car with the alarm going!! It's a pretty stock skyline body wise, just your normal M-spec kit, however it is lowered on 18" chromies with Nismo stickers on it, car show stickers etc... So that might have added to it. ALSO, not to sound my own horn or anything, it is the nicest car in the whole car park! Who ever it was must have been watching it for a while, I spoke to a few locals who think it is someone from the houso block of units across the road, I hear car theft from there is not uncommon!

Hi all, It's very sad when I have to read things about other skyline drivers having their cars broken into... Unfortunately I am now posting up for a second time about my skyline! I work in Wentworthville in real estate. Yesterday a work colleague of mine told me my headlights were on around 12.30pm. I found this strange seeing as I didn't drive with headlights on to work! The car has an alarm and I thought perhaps someone had bumped the car and activated the motion sensor, putting the alarm on which is when the headlights come on... I went down to check on the car which is parked in an open air car park adjacent to Lane St near the Mitre 10. Sure enough the headlights were on and my alarm was going off. I tried using the beeper to turn the alam off which didn't turn it off which I found very strange. I had the key on my key ring that disables the alarm from underneath the bonnet, so I unlocked the car from the driver's side to pop the bonnet to find... My dash all smashed up, wires hanging down on the ground and my passenger's side window half down. Some F*&^%ing A-Hole had shoved a screwdriver into the seal and forced down the window and reached in to unlock the door and tried to hotwire it to steal it. The ignition barrell is in a thousand pieces, the wiring has all been chopped and they also stole, I guess out of frustration they couldn't get the car started, my ipod, cd's a few tools and they totally ripped out a sun visor on the passenger's side which had a dvd screen in it. They even stole my Maglight! Funny thing is, they didnt even touch my $1500 head deck, or amps or subs, it's pretty clear they were after the whole car and took stuff out of sheer frustration they couldn't start the car. I called the police who said they would send someone to fingerprint the car... I waited for 7 hours (while also trying to hotwire the car to see if I could limp it home) and the cops never showed up. My boyfriend being an electrician got most of the accesories and power on but wasn't able to start the car. I'm thinking maybe the low life scum might have either blown a fuse or even the computer trying to start it. I ended up having to get my car towed back home to Penrith and funnily enough, while I was waiting hours for a tow truck, the cops call me and say "Ah yes we are at your house waiting to fingerprint the car, where are you?" My response was something along the lines of " I am still sitting in the car park waiting for you A-holes to show up, and am now also waiting for a tow truck so I won't be home til God knows when and someone should have been here 7 hours ago!" They're coming around tonight to check out the car because I told them to seeing as I have to go to WORK and work my ass off to make sure I have money to fix the car. So... This post isn't a whinge about what has happened, it's more a warning to never park in that car park and also to ask if anyone has, or knows where I can get a wiring manual or instructions for an R33 GTS-T Skyline. (BF is an electrician) Yes the car is insured but the excess if I make a claim is $2100!!!! It's cheaper if I just fix it myself... So I'll be on the look out for parts for the dash, ignition barrel etc and also I will be selling my pride and joy due to the fact it seems to be a $h!t magnet and also under my dad's intructions (defence foce man so don't cross him!) My boss took photos of the car which I will try to upload when I get a chance. That is all...

Gave a wave back to a guy in a black R33 down in the main drag of Penrith near the mall yesterday around about 1pm, car looked very clean.

I got a wave and waved back from a S1 white R33 on Saturday on Dunheved Rd near Werrington County shops

I just thought I should post this up for a work mate of mine... This morning at Blacktown near First Ave, a motorcyclist was killed when he was hit by a truck. This happened to be the boyfriend of a girl I work with, she didn't even get to say goodbye to him this morning as he left for work... Best wishes to her and her family, it's definately a very sad and solemn day in the office and Patrick will be dearly missed. Drive safe guys and always make sure your loved ones know they are loved and cared about, you never know what can happen... R.I.P Patrick

I've gone down a road through Kangaroo Valley towards Ulladulla which was awesome, and I would have to say the Macquarie Pass drive to Wollongong to see the grandparent's is always fun!
-
You know, it's funny you say 'people are going to see him' around my work and my house I'm finding pilgrims are coming out for the sake of it, not going to see the pope but busy singing Hare Krishna songs, looking like hippy derro's and getting in your face on the street just to p!ss you off and use the pope and World Youth Day as a justification of it!.... There's my rant.... lol

Spotted a maroon S1 R33 with spotties on the grill on my way to work this morning on the Great Western Hwy
-
So... Which is better performance/fuel pump wise? V-Power or V-Power Racing? A while ago I was hearing a few stories of people using the V-Power Racing and it was screwing with their fuel pump, can anyone verify this? I use the BP Ultimate... I just want what's best for my baby lol

Spotted a burgandy S1 R33 with an SAU sticker on the right rear quarter window at intersection of Great Western and Reservoir heading towards Eastern Creek direction. I waved at the driver but I think he had his mind set on blocking out the de-badged "WRX" flying up the inside merger lane lol was behind me for a while too, anyone on here IT HAS TO BE ha ha!

Spotted a burgandy R33 S1 parked right infront of me outside my house last night lol
