Was you old Group 3 a VH / VK /VL?

I've always been a bit partial to the VH group 3, and wouldn't mind if I had one with the HO pack sitting in the back shed :wink:

I'll be a cop out and say all my cars have been the best - I liked them all.

1978 XC Fairmont (219kw), 1982 XE ESP (stock as a rock 302), 1989 GTS-t, and my current R33 25T. Next car? Hmmm. Oh the options.

My R33 4 door is the latest evolution in Nissan cars. 1st car was a datsun 1600, Datsun Stanza, Honda s600( I know,but it was so cute),Datsun 1967 Fairlady 2000 High Screen sports convertible ( looks like MGB only much nicer), datsun 120Y and now Skyline R33.

Dont have to coerse the car 2 start each morning :P

  • 6 years later...

for some reason.. my old 78 golf was the most fun car i've ever owned, sunroofs are sick, and so was 4wding n throwing it thru mud.. POS cars are so much more fun than fast cars.. have got a 32 gtr and a 69 pacer, had a 32 gtst, ta22 celica, 81 corolla.. golf is only car i'd ever want back.. was so damn sick.. jesus this threads older than me ;o

LOL someone already asked the question you had planned on asking terry? So your like only.. 6yrs too late :P

LOLz LMAO HAHA

Yeh I was digging around in the dirt, and look what I found? THIS OLD THREAD!!!

I had fun looking at the earlier posts tho'

...trust you Craig to scrounge around and sniff it out... lol

I rate cars as I do many things, on value for money so far an old hyundai excel I paid $700 for with 12 months rego and free rust that gave me many years of service free, hassle free motoring wins!

Dont really like my whale....its too heavy and too slow, but it was cheap and nasty so It'll do!

    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
