NO but i think the bird on the right would be.........

Nah mate im applying all i know, previous car was a 5 series BMW, before that was a VQ Statesman(Deluxe), So now im bringing the Japanese into my deluxe car.........If ya know what i mean!!

As for rotors, They are sick, more so the chrome bumper ones, like Frankies old car(Madcap), that thing rocked back in the day, If you can find a R100 with a 10A, your doing really well!!

:):):D

Ive seen video of a PP'd 10A with a GT3540 hanging off the side... didnt do much, but JEEZ it sounded apeshit.

I still want to do a old school resto at some point, like a R100 RX2/RX3, standard pastel paint, venetian, stockies (widened to 9 inches of cousre), hubbies, whitewalls etc, and stick a full house 13BREW with a child eating turbo, lenco race box, 9 inch etc....

Even wanna rock the standard interior, beaded seatcovers, RAA badge and a "I love lawn bowls" stocker on the rear window LOL

Was at O'Connel St Bakery the other night with Vange and had a little laugh when we went out to go to our cars. Take a close look at the photos below, spot the car between our two >_<

I found it funny atleast :)

Just bitching about my unproductive day. Me and Jenkies decide today is that day to put my new intercooler and dump pipe on. Front bar comes off easy as, no problems. Bit of trouble trying to get the stock cooler off.

Decide to have a break before we take it off. glance over to my intercooler box, peel back a bit of packing tape and see "R33 Kit". well now, thats not what i ordered?

so anyway, put everything back together, make sure all bolts are on. ok time for dump pipe.

or, not.

nuts have seized, no chance in hell of getting them off.

so for just under 5 hours of labour, we accomplised:

- found one nut on the cat was really loose, tightened.

- removed thermo fan so cooler core will fit.

lesson for today. pay someone to do it for you.

if they parked more like that a lot less would get stolen :D

dam straight wishful thinking hey :) at least they left u guys alone spoke to a guy at the servo thursday morn he got pulled over and they defected him for his spare tyre its to small because he is running 18s the spare tyre needs to be bigger. now to me i thought u could go 2 sizes bigger than stock but if they want u they are going to get u >_<

i like skylines wooooo

lol, i am never attempting to put an aftermarket rear bar on again.

thing p*ss*s me off so much, and now i cant get my bloody side pods bak on.

who wants to spray my rear bar midnight blue and install it for me??????

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
