tighten and recheck your battery terminals, after that it could possibly be a voltage drop and it may need a starter relay. was the car automatic before ? if so check the bypass wiring on the inhibitor switch

from those photos they just look like casting marks not cracks at all. the only time i have seen a bell housing crack is when people rattle the bellhousing bolts up unevenly or with something caught inbetween block and bell housing

did the purple r33gtr have white wheels?

200km out of half a tank so am happy with the improvement

small 2 wire plug that will be attached to the a/c hose usually in the allow peice of hose i will check on my 33 exact location and let you know tonight

if it is struggling under load check your fuel filter/fuel pump

find the pressure switch and bridge the plug with a paper clip, also pull the ac belt off and spin the compressor by hand to make sure the clutches aint seized

whats got me scratching my head is that when it comes on boost it seems to pull stronger when i'm at 2/3 or 3/4 throttle and if i nail it it makes the noises and sounds like its going hard but doesn't really seem to pull well at all by this do you mean its reving its tits off and not pulling hard? if so possible your clutch is slipping

spotted a grey r33 with a SAU sticker on the rear quater on hume hwy at liverpool at about 7.40ish and a nice clean black R32 on the great western hwy at about 7.10ish horn dont work so didnt beep

i refitted my bosch 040 in my 33 after the guy owned it before me sta it in the factory position so i could use a full tank of fuel and get rid of fuel surging round corners, was a good write and showed me where to position the pump correctly to get the most out of it without the noisy pump issue just becarefull as i had mine suck up a pump full of sedement and had to pull the tank out to clean it, this is not a fun job on a R33 at all.

i take it no one is sure?

sounds to me like it has jumped a tooth, i would be redoing the engine timing properly not just from the cam gear adjuster

does it do it hot or cold? what ecu is it running?

different ecu, check the output values in a workshop manual i reckon ur pissin into a wind but

check your battery connections but it sounds like its running heaps rich from what your are talking about with the smoke i would be re checking intake pipeing
