hi everybody.. alrite, i own a HSV Senator but I really want a Skyline lol... Im doin my best and saving up so I can get one.... The guys from the west (Im from Hillside/Sydenham) if u see a guy with funny hair in a blue senator with plates HSVBRO and hes tailgating u or geeing u up at the lights, Im not doing it to be a hero, I just want to see how ur car goes!!! Most Skylines kill me anyways!!

Love the sound of them and went on the first skyline cruise last week and the sight and sound of nearly thrity skylines roarinf thru the tunnel was grouse!!

I always thought Skylines were cheap power ( i know, typical hsv driver) but u guys have introduced me to a whole new world!!

haha, its been good meeting the guys i have met hope to catch up with u's soon!! and hopefully soon you'll see me in a series 2 R33 GTS-T wif plates R33BRO (haha for a laugh) nar jus kidding bout the plates :laughing-smiley-014:

The words 'cheap' and 'Nissan' shouldn't be used in the same sentence.

Welcome to the dark side. :D

Unless you drive a Tiida or a Poosaar, which in that case, you should find a water well and drown yoself...

haha, well looks like i have alot to learn....

1. never use the word 'grouse'..... how bout 'sik'? lmao

2. never insult skyline drivers by using 'cheap' and 'nissan' in the same sentence

3. forced induction aint cheap

thanks for the comments guys and i dont think the plates HSVBRO will suit a skyline.... nut then again, u never know... shud be at the cruise for the westys this week and i think i'll have to hitch a ride with a mates skyline, dont wanna ruin the whole 'twenty skylines owning the road' thing u's have got going.... jokes

and to me i see it as cheap power.... to get 220rwkw out of a 5 litre, biiiiiiiig dollars... wat more than 7-8 g's yeah? a skyline? 2 g's? thats wat i meant... didnt mean to offend lol.. hope to meet a few of u guys at the meets :D

Technically that is trying to "g" someone up.

I think the other thing here is that BIG power in a skyline normally equates to about 350kw or so these days... Even that is getting mild...

Welcome to the fold bro.

There are ways to get good value for money power. I prefer to build my own engines, the last being a 700hp 3.0L with 26 head that came in for just under $5K in my race car (GTS25t but twin turbo). My GTR does 500hp as a daily driver and I will kick that up to 600hp at the next tune. Parts were 3K for the computer, turbos and injectors. Good handling in a GTR is only $2500 away as well and given a GTR33 can be had for less than 25K that is good value, especially considering the Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini and Audi RS4 I've driven recently all don't compare as an all round performer. That is 1.4Mill worth of comparison and I'd keep the GTR anyday and flog off the others if they were a freebie.

a neighbour of mine already has CYA-57L .now if it was on a skyline,that would be good.

can i ask why your not going for the r34GTT instead of the r33?

hah those plates wud be tuff on a skyline.... i prefer the look of the r33 over the r34... dont know why, just my preference and i probably wont have too much to spend so jus gotta aim reasonably

this probly sound real dumb, but how much different all round is there between an r33 GTST and an R34GTT? the r33GTST are goin for around 13ish, wat wud a r34 GTT be worth?

Technically that is trying to "g" someone up.

im not denying that i am trying to gee them up, just some ppl think im geeing them up coz i want to beat them.... coz im a hero (which im not) lol. and i cant beat them

I bought my GTT for 26k, well I borrowed 10k off the old man.. But you get m'drift...

You can find GTT's for around 20k if you look hard enough, but personally, I wouldn't advise getting anything that is any cheaper... yet..

However I got a 4 door, turbo manual which is a bit rare, if your going a turbo manual coupé, or a turbo auto taxi, then things get a bit cheaper...

Hot 4's are selling their project car on Ebay, it is an absolute steal atm..

    • If doing that ^, I'd take the idle up valve out and plug the hole in the pump.
    • You can try capping the power steering idle up valve at both ends if it's old. The valve and the intake manifold. That is something that is known to fail in Toyotas with age and it will suck power steering fluid into the intake and burn it in the engine which can cause issues. Then bleed it again with engine off first. Do like 30+ lock to lock turns with the front wheels off the ground.
    • Hi Brent, I am wondering if you ever worked this out? I have upgraded this unit to a newer one and everything works bar the reverse camera, so i really want to know what plugs are what so I can patch the camera through. many thanks in advance Mike
    • Once you have to get up in the morning and be useful, you suddenly value sleep it turns out :p
    • Update:   smoke test all pipes no issues cleaned reservoir   fluid put in ( dexron 3 atf)   steering turn side to side and could hearing  gurgling from steering rack which I assumed was air lock, opened one of the steering rack connections and could see loads of air getting pushed out( not sure if you meant to do that / whether it will re introduce air into system)   anyways, loads of side to side sound was gone. Turned car on, pump was slightly ( barely) wining so turned side to side few more turns and fluid level when car on was almost none in resorvoir which I guess is normal if car is one. Turned car of and fluid was gushing out. Almost 200-300cc was pushed out. Repeated engine off side to side followed  by engine on and same result       going mad now. It seems system is either sucking air in whilst on or there is tons of air which I am not giving it enough time to bleed. Thoughts?   would it work like brake caliper if I open steering rack copper pipes and let gravity pull all air out?   or maybe have a restriction somewhere? What is the red circled item, could that be blocked? It i
