So as you may notice, the N/A forum now has 1000 posts threads!!

Some of you may be thinking who cares?

Well It's a great accomplishment, believe it or not, the forum only had around 300 or so topics if not less back when I joined SAU (2004). And most of those topics weren't even initially created in this forum.. You see the N/A section wasn't here from the beginning..

The Naturally Aspirated section was left out in the rain in SAU's early years, with little enthusiam for the screaming 6 cylinder!

This was changed by an early 'pioneer' of the N/A forums.. 'Greg'

Before the N/A forum, there was a thread devoted to the N/A skyline! http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Na...rea-t2344.html#

Greg took it upon himself to gather the enthusiasm of all N/A owners, in doing this he helped turn the N/A community into what we see today! Along with PVA_glue the first N/A moderator they pushed to help out all those with non-turbo skylines..

A year or so later Eug arrived on the scene. Learning from the forums along the way and learning new ways to improve the N/A skylines, helping others and just generally answering every post that seemed to come up, he quickly earned himself moderator title :)

Once the non-turbo laws hit some of the states, posts started booming, more and more people started waking up and realising N/A skylines can handle and perform far beyond most people's expectations!

And so the forum as you see it today celebrates 1000 posts threads! A great accomplishment for all those who put time into writing up tutorials, FAQ's, Answering questions and in general just helping each other out and promoting ownership of N/A skylines not just across Australia but internationally too!

Well done guys!

P.S No more threads on, how do make a pshhhhhht sound anymore kk? :(

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.

      R32 GTR EV? The leaf of the Godzilla's!

      By Duncan · Posted

      I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better.

      2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)

      OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
