Im Now An Official Skyline Owner

[livo]

after much looking ive purchased my first turbo car and first therefor Skyline.

Its got a few suspension mods including Bilstein Shocks..... side mount intercooler and an R33 turbo... running 10psi at 153rwkw......enough for me atm.....

handles like a gem....and not a leak anywhere.....all bushes replaced nothing needs to be done except for regas of aircon...... so less then 200.00..... the cleanest skyline ive seen for sale.....hence why i am now the owner.....lol...

hope to see you all out soon......

congrats....now the money spending begins

[axe s]

if your A/C is hot it doesn't just need a re-gas... refrigerant doesn't go off... it'll have a leak somewhere... if you bought through a car yard get it fixed under warranty...

[livo]

ahhh yeh sorry...

1992 GTST 2 door...... black..... lowered an inch... stock rims.... GTR front calipers, GTR front seats..... side mount intercooler.....oil cooler...... bunch of others i will list up later..... and photos when i get home....

Congrats everyone on their new rides, seem we have a few more people to take the p!ss out of now... but we'll wait a bit longer so we don't scare you away.

Which reminds me, best not to let Mick near you yet, cos we'd like you to hang around a bit longer LOL

If any of you are out with your new cars (and even if you're not driving your new car yet) swing by the hillclimb on Sutton Rd and say hi, there should be a few of us there.

[livo]

Very nice! Not bad for a first turbo car. I like the list of mods too. Just a small note: they're either iridium or platinum spark plugs, not both. Good luck with the car, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

[Frink]

very cool... something else to note: the stock boost for an R33 turbo is 7psi, not 10....

[livo]

not too sure what plugs are in it, thats just what i got as a summery.

in regards to boost - i thought 7 was the stock boost, so ive either got 155 on 7 or 10 pound. yay if it is 7psi. anyway of checking it?????

also anyone no the cost of installing a boost contoller off the top of there heads? looking to get 2 stage i think and the flip switch in the cabin hidden somewhere...... wouldnt mind winding it up a little, if its is at 7 then maybe 10, no higher than 12.

Also whats the 33 turbo rated too?????

[Grunter]

It has the R32 wastegate actuator fitted so it has 10psi boost.Hope all is going

well,did you get that PM I sent you

Edit: Platinum plugs fitted

Cheers
