Trozzle

I'm surprised the place in fyshwick right near commonwealth bank doesn't have any...I know they won't weld on flanges for you, but they will sell you all the parts...assuming shell is right

At this rate you're gonna have to find someone you trust enough to sell it on your behalf after you leave such a shame, coz at that price I'd almost buy it rofl

I'm not sure James...evolution is a mysterious thing

considered parting it out Ross? lol

The one in that first photo Eiji, I would HAPPILY trade my 33 plus cash for it....f**king BEAUTIFUL car...wow.

rofl, well done sir, well done!

Could be multiple things, any other symptoms other than just the light coming on? If it comes on and she doesn't notice any differences in how the car drives, it could be anything from low oil pressure (BAD thing), engine knock (she might not notice the sound that comes with this problem) or just sensors stuffing up. I know my HICAS light comes on a lot when driving back from Sydney, but I am 99% sure there is nothing wrong with it. If neither of you know anything more than the fact that the light comes on occasionally, I'd recommend either taking it to somewhere like Trojan Motorsports in Mitchell, or Autotech in Hume....otherwise perhaps you should swap cars for a week and see what you think yourself, try to pick up symptoms when it happens. Stop the car and listen to the engine with the bonet up, immediately look at oil pressure, water temp, etc etc Hope that helps a little, but unfortunately a little more info is needed like trying to diagnose what someone's illness is when all the can tell you is "it hurts here" and points to themself

hahaha, yeah...it's a shit intersection but nah, that's not my kinda corner, ESPECIALLY with traffic around, to skid in the wet....I much prefer turning left off Hindmarsh onto Canberra Ave in 2nd....then into 3rd....then gain traction and coast down to work in 4th...though again, not with traffic lol

YES SPOTTED FARK ABOUT TIME BEEN TOO LONG!!! lol Were you going through the roundabout, or were you behind me on Johnson? I was merely thinking about gambling - whether I hit boost or not! hmm...haha I fking hate having to drop back to 1st at that intersection, always best if I can coast through in 2nd!

Yeah, most of my daily driving I won't even hit positive boost, even though I'm set on 11psi...your friend is right, it's all about the right foot and how you use it. Just drive easy on the throttle and you won't need to worry about boosting until you need it (or feel like giving it a squirt)

I'd offer mine, but I'm southside....Fyshwick during work hours at best

GTR or GTST?

I cant recall the exact figure off the top of my head, but I believe it's 12psi that the ECU cuts for overboost protection. My S1 R33 gtst is on 11psi at the moment with no issues, so you should be fine with 10-11psi

Having box dropped today for inspection, fingers crossed on thrust bearing

Spotted gray 34 Narooma yesterday, and Maroon 33 GTS-T in Moruya this morning.

Input shaft bearing in gearbox is fked too Jrm, but I know that noise. It's the horrid grinding/drilling noise when I ride the clutch a little bit (1000-1500rpm) up my driveway that is the main symptom. When I let my foot off at idle in neutral, it makes the sandy sound of the input bearing, but there's a slight chirping sound somewhere else. This goes away the instant I touch the clutch pedal and apply the TINIEST bit of pressure (not even depressing it at all, just enough to "load" or touch the thrust bearing)

Yeah, I'd be willing to dump $10k straight off the bat

I don't anticipate there being an issue with the clutch, unless it is faulty. Otherwise it has received very little abuse whatsoever, and symptoms/troubleshooting is suggesting otherwise. At least that's some food for thought tho, thankyou. If the clutch is bung, I don't know whether I'll just leave it be for now, and get a good double plate and possibly new flywheel further down the track, or rip it out and sell it to my mate for sweet shit all...ehh we'll see, but if it's just the bearing then that's not much at all. Thanks for the input

I can't wait til my VL runs out of rego again....MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA F*CKER GON' GET MOLESTED!

Yes, my point is that without him saying he's running both aftermarket turbo and ECU, we can only assume he isn't. Therefor if the stock turbo survives running 15psi long enough, he'll be experiencing the ECU freaking from overboost (I think anything over 12psi with stock ECU makes it cry) If he didn't have a semi-smartass response to the "being shot" comment, mentioning we didn't know anything about his engine it wouldnt matter...but maybe when he was typing it, he should have thought to tell us about his engine. Either way, if you're running aftermarket gear, coils, plugs, or AFM

Mind telling us why you shouldn't be shot, when you gave us no knowledge about your engine? It's like asking why your turbo exploded at 30psi, without telling it it's a T51....you let us assume it's stock, so we're also going to assume you're an idiot.

The loop that the belt goes through to the far right of the part in question in that pic, it rotates around 360 degrees, so I would assume you could just use the same part on the passengers side

sound (see: cop magnet) and perhaps quality of parts used (not 20 years old) would be an upgrade, otherwise stock plumback is the best way to go

rofl pat you tool. How'd ya manage that? I head to Narooma when I go to the coast, and have made it from Queanbeyan > Narooma and back on a single tank with ease, though I'll usually fill up in the B-Bay on the way back to be sure

wasn't me, I've been a active little boy all day on my pushy!
