Getting the IAT sensor replaced, I am warming to the r33 wheels, but would like not to spend much money on the car for a while, the amount I've spent on it in the last 2-3 months is annoying :blink: thx for the comments though

Thats where I'm leaving atm, happy with the power, and poor enough... Need to save up for a respray now, cars collecting scratches like nothing else, had the car at three shops this week, for various things, now have a scratch on my bonnet..... My poor car looks so rough and dodgy atm.... :)

Car still has a slight miss at 2500-3000 which I need to get nutted out. Any ideas? Compressor surge?

In other news, not driving this much anymore. Using the daily I bought 09 Kia Rio FTW lol. Paint is going to shit, and I think the engine is getting a bit tired. Long term I want a full respray done in the same colour, and an engine rebuild.Still undecided if I want to go a normal rebuild on the 25, or do a 25/30. Thats very long term though.

Not much of an update but still have the car, starting to ponder if I should respray the car in Bayside blue again and keep it rather than sell it, as the values are down so low for 32's now. Had bouts of wanting to sell it and not sell it.

    • If you are fine with China turbos, Maxpeedingrods makes a bolt on turbo. Ive had mine for two summers now and it seems to be holding up ok. 
    • Howdy all Im in a little predicament and wondering what everyone’s thoughts are? I’ve had my long block rebuilt and am in the market for a turbo due to my old one having metal shavings from crank bearings (cause of rebuild) go throughout the turbos oil lines and there wheel has a little play. I’m not really aiming for any power, just trying to keep it as oem as possible, but I can’t find a turbo that’s built for the stock ecu or find something that would be a standard replacement. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions 
    • How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!
    • So the clockspring is responsible for the indicators cancelling on their own? I thought that was the function of that white thing in the center (any idea what it's called?)
    • Can you log IAT? Whilst WTA coolers have their place, doing any sort of sustained run is not one of them There are fixes that slow down the heat soak, like ice boxes, which don't last that long, and interchillers, which are fairly expensive, up grades to the WTA cooling radiator, which may require a bigger pump, and upgrades to the reservoir size,  and upgrades to the cooling fans, but, it all still heat soaks, and takes ages to come down in hot weather  For a turbo, that isn't locked into WTA like my PD blower is, can you not possibly swap to a nice air to air intercooler????, it would be better for sustained runs then, and have alot less things that could go wrong in my opinion
