i could think of someone that USED to do 100k services, at a very good price.

did may of them, and speaking from experience, did a fan-farkin-tastic job...

if he still wants to do them, he will pop his head in and put his hand up for sure.

anyone confirm?

I agree with Craig... Never got him to work on my car but what Ive seen him post he sounds like a top bloke and knows his shit...

As for the 100k service I did mine myself and was rather easy.

Timing belt wise just get a Kit with Idler and Tensioner pulleys to suit a skyline.

Trans, transfer, powersteer and attessa fluid use Castrol transmax Z or another good quality oil with a Dexron III rating. The filter is metal I've read of people just cleaning it.

Do the fuel and 02 sensor while your at it. Fuel filter is common 02 get an el falcon one i think it is and put ur plug on it :D

Plugs depends on how much you want to spend. Look in the stag part lists or search for what Tangles (brendan) uses... he raves about the ones he uses dont cost much just replace them every 5 or 10k. Or spend a bit more and get some that last ages.

As for the codes ask in the Stag section and im sure some one will help you out (most likely chook)

Joeleo87 can hook you up with a gates racing timing belt kit (tensions, seals etc included)

if you want a mechanic to do it for you, give road & track a go - details in my sig

I vote we bring back ryanrb25.... any +1's?

Noticed he doesnt really post much anymore then saw him trying to sell an IC the other day.

i daresay when he feels like offering his services again, youll see him around more often.

but considering the reasons he no longers offers, i dont think any +1's are gonna bring him back.

just sayin.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By dbm7 路 Posted

      Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...

      They also make them with the motor mounted on the side

      Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.

      Exhaust silencers/varex exhausts

      I only recently purchased the vehicle, it came with the flex setup but the current tune is e85 only, which is why im wanting to get the tune redone to enable a mixture.  First i need to get the exhaust redone tho. I was thinking of getting a varex muffler but it sems they dont fit well in the 33 (hang low because of the valve mechanism which sticks out on top) and generally dont sound good. So that leaves me with redoing the entire exhaust (more resonators and mufflers) so its not a menace when i come and go from home, and then have the aes dump valve somewhere along the line to really open it up. I was thinking of having it before the cat but after seeing how insanely loud it will be (on a vl turbo) im thinking of putting it more towards the rear of the car, after one of the resonators.

      At this point I'm just 'hoping' it's the turbo seals. I did speak to someone who said it's normal for these turbos to have a bit of axial play? Not gonna lie I've never checked a turbo for axial play before but you could hear it tapping a bit as I moved it back and forth. Surely that's too much? My theory is (could be completely wrong), bad axial play, worn bearings, bad seals, oil into dump/compressor side, burns in exhaust = blue smoke. On a timing belt related note, my crank pulley was missing that front plate that sits in front of the timing belt. It's that metal round plate. It did have the rear one, and the woodruff keys are in the crank which was nice. Can anyone confirm if the NEO det engine has a front plate, im sure it would to protect the front of the timing belt or something. Water pumps...the pump I got was an NPW (yes grill me if I should've got a genuine one lol). It has a smooth mating surface, kit came with a pretty pathetic looking paper gasket. Do I need to use any RTV or just trust the gasket will work because its a smooth mating surface? Cheers legends have a good Easter break!
