  1. I love the R33's in white...But I think I'm going to try my best to get a R32 GTR is silver, with bronze wheels.
  2. Disconnect it. Cars better, and more predictable without it.
  3. Master tofu maker at Fujiwara Tofu LOL! Don't spill the water.......
  4. Nah...I'm waiting till I have enough cash saved to buy a R32GTR outright, maybe end this year to mid next year. Then I can sell the R33 GTS-t and use the cash off the sale of that for Mods and Full Comprehensive Insurance (with all mods listed too).
  5. To tune a R33GTS-t to run boost safely at 20+psi, I rekon you'd almost be able to get a R32 GTR, if you used the money spendt on mods plus the sale of your car. After Computer, headgasket, clutch, intercooler, injectors, fuel pump and regulator, oil cooler, oil catch can.......uuummm the list would be endless. Don't get me wrong, it'll be an awsome piece of work...but perfer a GTR....I know you said "FAR" into the future...But I was going to do the same...holding back until I get the cash saved for the GTR. I'm not even buying mags for my R33....just want that GTR.
  6. Yeah thats what I was thinking ?30 PSI...Like having a speedo with 320 kph on it...no point A gearbox broke on a standard setup....my limited knowledge is telling me that I doubt that very much unless someone has flat shifted or shifting without the clutch alot....maybe multiple k launchs too... I'd get a second opinon as well...The gearboxs are suppose to be on standard, even mild to mid setups. Nick might be able to comment here... I know the synchros are usually rooted from Jap driving styles, they lean on 4th gear and put pressure on the shifter while driving, also the amount of highways they have, they tend to use 5th alot, which is basically a overdrive gear anyway...so at worst the synrchos would be rooted.... but a broken gearbox on a car with what about 65-68k on it...doubt it my two cents
  7. The car starts in gear ? This would be one of the first things to indicate a blown clutch. Ummm....sounds like clutch, again, the gearbox would allow the rear wheels to free spin if the clutch was not clamping. interesting..if that was the case the clutch must of destoried itself completely and really badly. Driveline stuff usually either packs it in over a period of time and you know its coming or it just goes BANG...but you would of surely heard something, or see stuff broken..... my two cents.... And it does sound like you've been trashing it...5k lanuchs...tisk tisk.....Tryouts for the Fast and Furious 2 ???
  8. It means that as far as your cars computer is concerned everything is running normal as per the signals its receiving. The 55 is good.
  9. Catch a train to the Rocks ? How long before you get your licence
  10. awwwwww...Thanks Guys! I should be fine, its open book. Stupid Test, nothing to do with the course. Just you guys don't get any Yellow Cards tonight.
  11. I would...BUT...I've got an exam tonight.. Last Friday at TAFE Ay! Might be out prowling latering.
  12. Cruises starting in the city suck. Why don't you guys meet somewhere else and get your "Lines out on the open highway. I still rekon Homebush 6C would have to be the best place to met. City Traffic is just a joke, pointless. then I might just be getting old.... A from a cops point of view, of course there going to come down harder on you in the city...And they have you cornered. highway of get the cars in one of nasho/OPH runs...safer, less chance of radar detection.
  13. Mark to Jaguar has been around for a while. Probably go through too. But an intersting event today is the signing of Panis to Toyota and both McNish and Salo dropped (surprised that Salo was dropped!) Leaves a seat at Toyota....Webber maybe, Massa has a chance since dropped by Sauber for Heniz.. I'd really really like to see Briscoe get a go in the Toyota....now that would be great.
  14. Yes...All the drivers love it too... I think this is the circuit where MS and MH had that famous quote of : MH : I'll brake 10 metres later to try and win the race. MS : Fine, I'll brake 20 metres later.... MH : Okay, see you in the gravel trap..... And I think it was the scene of the double sided overtaking move that MH pulled on MS with an Arrows in the middle or something... Goooo Schumie!!!
  15. Guys! Guys! The R33 is a little more simpler. Now, I may not be 100% on all this as I haven't done it for a while... Okay. Remove the kick panel on the passenger side (below the glove box). You'll reveal the computer. Take the computer out very gentlely (its not hard, becareful of the looms and wires). On one end of the computer you'll see a white switch, circle shape, get a small flat head screw driver. Turn the reds on at the ignition. turn the circlular switch oppositelock, again gently. look at the dash board, you'll see (on a series 1 gts-t) the check engine light flashing. If your getting 5 slow and 5 fast repeated flashes (it will loop) the system and its sensors are all okay. You'll need the codes if your getting anything other then this...you can get them on the net...meggala's site might be a try there. turn the switch back to its original postion. You'done a basica computer reading check AND reset the computer. I would only do this if you can spend at least an hour driving on a highway so the computer can learn some good open running maps...no good doing it for 5mins...... cheers...just check on the process of turning the switch, it maybe turn switch, reds, turn back to get the result.......as long as you return it to the oringinal postion the car should be fine. ANDREW
  16. Easy said then done... Just watch out for : The door which is opened in front of you, The car which fades into your lane without a blinker, The Car which screams outta of a driveway, Wet Leafs etc etc etc
  17. Shouldn't that be : Sell the 'Line Buy the R1 Invest the money Get life insurance Buy a Grave plod
  18. I've been there with a few members from the club, at a fairly slow pace and never saw one car ! about 2 or 3 times......
  19. Vote one for me : I promise to close the O.P.H. too general traffic and open it for one way performance use at 8pm every night. No Speed limits, at your own risk! bonk........ Just woke up!
  20. But...I'd get a Series 7 RX7 instead of the GTR...hehehe
  21. Just move to Parramatta. Drive to Winsdor, the cars warm...blast along the Bells Line, my dream Sunday Afternoon! Last time I went I had some fun with a brand new Triumph Motorbike, awsome to see a bike about 4 feet off your rear end at high speed... Funny, I let him pass me, he pulled alongside me and had a look in the window with a massive grin on his face, gave me the thumbs up and took off.....then I realised that was done close to 140!!! LOL Must find this Putty Road thou....How do you rate it compared to Bells.....?
  22. is this also know as the bells line of road ?
  23. whats the difference ?
  24. Anyone want a really cool game : Go get Grand Theft Auto 3.... Awsome. Heaps of fun, you get to do carjacks, belt up coppers, gte paid for mafia type jobs...way cool!
  25. Yeah...I go accross that bridge in a white skyline about 4 times a weekend...LOL Wonder how many of us could hold back and racing a Ferrari. I know I probably couldn't...
