uym, i dont think this is a thread to whore in when your pissed wayne!

[MotoX]

o sorry.

ok last night i reset the gap on the plugs from 1.1mm to .75mm as you can see above.

set boost to a nice healthy .86bar. changed the offset to 104.

I HAVE .85bar boost now. my cars heaps faster, its not missing on high boost either. im very happy.

ok, i imported my r33 gtst about 6 months ago now

mods are a pioneer headunit,

6inch splits and 2 ways in the rear,

stacker,

Jaysons leather handbrake and gear boot kit <-- they still look awesome compared to what it came with

3inch catback with big stainless muffler

K&N pod

autometer boost guage

Heavy duty daiken single plate clutch

front mount intercooler (600x200x70)

HKS SSQ bov (which is now not working and i have a plumb back on it again)

greddy turbotimer

apexi avc-r

Regarding Tze/rb26dett's HKS twin plate clutch - I love it. It does take some finesse to get moving, but feels totally bulletproof and very precise, and the rattle sounds cool.

[BelGarion]

well i got a dodgy coil pack and my plugs need gapping apparently

and im guessing this is true cause i get heavy missfiring at about 12 psi and it still happens occaisionally at 10

[Guest 382 GZV - 4 Door R33]

-how does mifiring manifest itself in your ears as you drive?

-if your R33 is lowered 30mms does it need camber correction kits?

-with just a zorst and Front mount, at what psi would you have to regap from 1.1mm to stop misfiring?

-what gap would you use?

-MotoX - what is the 104 offset you were talking used for?

-So as to stay true to the thread, I will say this:

I have got two quotes for $1400 for bilstein shocks and kings for R33. Is this good? Where is a good suspension place?

-Hey RB26dett - how many kms have you had your HKS cam gears on for?? How you found any wear? Apparently they wear bad after 6000-10000 kms.

:boobs:

Enough Questions?

[sir31]

Loud set of pipes

Pod air filter

Lowered

Brake up grade

Front splits

15" kicker sub

[rb26dett]

had the cam gears on for about 2000ks??

i read somewhere they wear out too, but i hope they wun...they seem to be able to hold 1300hp in the HKS drag car so i hope they'd be of a relatively strong build.

apparently, they're not mass produced like other makes. they wait for enough orders before they start up the machine, so they're always pretty new.

and slip...it does feel bulletproof, but takes a hell long time to master

[/b]

No u dont need a camber kit, ur wheels will have a slight camber but the wear is more even and it takes the same time to wear. If ur going more then 30 mm then yes a camber kit would be a good idea, as well as aftermarket shocks

so your saying im lying about whats going on with my car, and i cant feel it shuddering violently when its WOT and on boost.....

[nismoman18]

[400R]

- 3.5 inch jasma cat-back exhaust

- custom dump pipe

- hi-flow cat

- trust oil cooler

- blitz pod filter

- pirelli p7000 tyres (235's)

- home made bleeder valve (from a sprinkler system)

- gtr front bar

[japtaxi]

550hp "Walbro" fuel pump is what you meant to type.

[MotoX]

ummm jsut got back from the tyre shop.

my cars low, the lowest point is 7cm. anyhow i was talking to the guy, known him for ages, and he said there isnt much point in a camber kit, only make my car handle worse around corners.

he charged me $15 for a wheel alignment. nice bloke

[Guest Boxhead]

wayne - my car is very low too, and my tyres wear horribly, as in, one of my tyres is worn almost down on one side, like not even that half, liek the far quarter, and also, the other side hasnt been touched.

[slip]

Wayne, I would get a 2nd opinion about your rear wheels.

Call steve on 32661500 (bob jane bloke)

[Guest 382 GZV - 4 Door R33]

So are the guys at Toombul Bob Jane all that better than all the other Bob Janes around?

[locutus_of_bris]

One word - YES

[jlnewton]

I agree the guys at Toombul Bob Jane, so far, I have found excellent to deal with.

Just installed my new gearstick boot from JAY95R33 yesterday and it looks pretty good, just got to do the handbrake now. If anyone has crappy boots I recommend PM ing for the next batch. Definitely good value! Nothing like the smell of real leather!

[51jay]

Mick got a couple of tyres and allignment at Toombul all up price turned out to be the same as our local Bob Jane. Price on the tyres was the same as phone quote from 3 other Bob Janes, so where is the advantage??
