its got jaggies and stuff but it was going to take a bit to get it 100% im not an artist just like playing

Thanks Stevo.....I'll give it a go.......looks good bud. :P

Hey no probz Dave......I reckon Patrick is organizing a DVD for me so don't go out of your way bud, but I'd be curious to see what's available in Adelaide next time you're there. :)

KISIN - Yes i actually have GTR fronts in mine but there is no differance in the front from GTSt to GTR

Yeah it would still be there Jess but sau has a bad habit of making links go bad if you just copy and paste without coding them :(

Oh :D again..This is the first time it has done it to me..

All good cause Sled found them on ebay anyway!

I'm excited about Go Karts and catching up with you SA folk :woot:

There might be no house purchase for me this month :)

House at auction went for way more than I was willing to go (which was well above market value)! :D

House I put an offer in I had a second inspection last night on and there's a few things wrong with it. Getting a building inspector to go thru it early tomorrow morning (before I got interstate), and I've instructed him to look for water damage in the ceiling and down the wall cavity. I strongly believe there will be hidden damage, and the owners thought paint would cover up anything. Considering the vendors are asking $5K above median price in the area (on par with Cheltenham houses) and especially $50K above suburb prices (houses in Rosewater range $310K to $330K average) ... I do not believe it will be worth $375K even with the extension (which I suspect does not have Council approval). :down:

Shopping for a house is so much hard work ... jesus, there are some real disappointing homes out there ;)

There is one final house I'm looking at in the area well within the market range and looks to be in better condition. I might arrange an inpsection next week when I return. If nothing comes from this one, I'm giving up looking until the end of the year. Everyone knows the housing market is on its way down, and most vendors are trying to get as much as they can now despite there being some problems with the house!

I'll have pleasure telling the vendor I'm retracting my offer due to hidden faults with the house they were aware of, if it comes to that. :P

WOOT.. 302rwkw 17psi

Best part though...

3500rpm = 200rwkw

4000rpm = 265rwkw

Comes on super smooth no snapping and actually really easy to get the power down.

The 2" FMIC piping and 450x300 small FMIC was causing a few issues and wouldn't allow us to push more than 17psi in to it up top. :D

Not to replace the fmic and its 2" skinny arsed piping :P

Very Nice!!! :P

NICE joel!! im sure ur a happy man..

whats next hahaha?????

Thats a silly question... :)

E85 haha

+ FMIC with 2.5" piping.

The cams have really woke the car up.. Right off idle it feels much more responsive, spools the turbo earlier etc. I must admit I was a tad scared the 265/263 9mm regrinds would kill low end but its been the complete opposite.

Best thing.... I've just pulled 400km's out of a tank and almost a 1/4 of that tank was on the dyno!! :D

hey Joel.....did you have to retard the exh gear to compensate and bring the power curve back to the left?

I'm abit confused, cause even though 9mm is not huge lift, when I went to school, bigger overlaps always caused a shift in rpm in a northerly direction.......maybe it's more to do with your tune than the cams cause I always thought that better response is not generally a side effect of bigger overlaps :)

Regardless of the size of the cams the way they are setup they run less overlap than the R32 RB25DE cams (8degrees) I previously had in there.

From memory they were 240duration inlet 7.8mm lift and 232duration 7.3mm lift. Inlet had an LCA of 112 degree's and exhaust 117 or 118degree's. Being a total of approx 8degree's overlap.

The new cams... Inlet LCA 110 exhaust 115. Overlap is 4-5degree's so even though they are bigger cams they are setup with bugger all overlap.

The Inlet LCA and exhaust are exactly the same as how JUN or HKS I believe setup their RB20DET cams.

Less overlap helps turbo spool improves bottom end which is most likely why I have not lost any fuel economy or low/mid power yet still picked up decent top end due to the 265duration and 9mm lift. I presume. :S

Still got some tweaking to do it was only on the dyno for approx 1hr. It wasn't worth spending any more time on it as the FMIC is crap and causing problems. Most likely the IW 1bar actuator is not able to hold much more. Much the same as the problems Dangerman4 experienced with his IW garrett housing. Needs a nice stiff actuator.

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
