Recommended Posts

And here i find myself not being offended by a guy asking me for pics for once :O haha

Should have a membership application in in the next few weeks. so. Should be soon. Whatevers on =D

:)

You don't have to be a member to come out on cruises, but if you are a VIC SAU Member, you will also gain access to Official VIC SAU Cruises, which only members can attend.

Just check the "Victoria", "Events" Section for cruises, Dyno Days, and other type events and once you got membership you can gain access to the "VIC Members Area".

Cool!

Post pics... :)

Alas my friends I have come down with a massive flu and barely leave the house for fear of it getting worse - determined to be better before next weekend's dyno day. There will be moe soon though - Just like i promised. Once i stop shaking like a leaf and my breathing stops sounding like death lol.

Nice shots though! really good. i like the lip you have on your bonnet there, did you put that on?

Okie - I have a photojournal of the days events to show you all =D

Ao first, my naighbours have been burning off a lot of tree matter and such for the last day or so. Dumping a TON of ash on my poor GTR - as below:

So i took the car for its first bath since i bought it two weeks ago.

And then brought it home only to find TWO fires had now been lit and ash was continuing to rain from the sky like it was judgement day.

So i took the car out again, to get this:

Car is now clean and mostly ash free. But it cost me some to get it that way =(

Oh well. Anything for my baby <3 hehe

lol missed out on the purple one as well?

Dennis said someone else was looking at it...but i put money down on her a bare 30 hours after it was ready for sale lol i'd been bugging them for weeks about when one of the three they had would be ready.

apparently said guy put money down on the purple the day he saw it also. they tend to go quick. they had a silver, if its still there? v-spec 96...

Strut brace would help a lot.

Deiced on how many kW's you want first then start the up grading.

"HKS dump and peripheries piping (im still learning, i dunno what its called...) and seals and stuff.

which is good, you know, cuz i like purple :P haha"

Not quite following you there... Purple..?

So you got HKS Dump pipes with Perforated straight through piping..? If so, it helps with the exhaust flow to run smoother / quicker = faster your car will go.

I would probably just leave the aftermarket cat back exhaust and just put in a high flow cat and "Down and Front" Pipes, which bolt on after your Dump pipes to free up the exhaust fumes as it will be a mighty gain on the RB26DETT.

Again deiced on how many kW's you want as the Stock GTR air intake / panel filter, front mount intercooler, blow off valve, fuel injectors (just to name a few) are all good for over 300kW's... So no need to change.

My suggestion is make sure your exhaust is at least 3" all the way and go for a boost controller and an APexi Power FC (ECU).

Don't boost it up too much as from memory the Stock R33 GTR turbos are still ceramic internals.

Stock boost is abour 10.9 PSi (+0.7 Bar), you could run a few more PSi but I suggest do not go over 14.7 PSi (1 Bar).

Like what Skyline said, get the exhaust, boost controller and an after market ecu 1st. And when you're tuning it, you can then decide if you want to upsize the injectors. From memory, the stock can handle around the 300kW mark but will be on close to 100% duty (from advises I've got from a lot of people). And if you're getting injectors, the nismo ones are recommended by people whom I've been speaking with due to the spraying patterns (I'm a noob too but just want to share some of my research).

And yes they still have ceramic turbos so, you wouldnt be seeing the 300kW that easily unless you change the turbos with higher boost. Anyway very nice series 3 you've got there. Congratz on the purchase!

    • I have a radium fuel rail on my Greddy manifold and used the supplied radium fuel injector to manifold adapters (The round green things pictured). I did always wonder if you could just go ahead and use the second lower hole like you're doing... Wouldn't thicker o-rings solve your issue?    
    • From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"
    • Hi all,  I have a older model of the Greddy Front facing intake on an RB25DET NEO Head. I've bought aeroflows fuel rail and injector kit (1000cc Bosche injectors) and I'm unsure if the fitment is correct. The injector o-rings fit in the intake hole but it's not snug. I can very easily rotate the injectors even when the fuel rail is mounted. The kit also came with multiple adaptors, they dont make it any more snug and using them raises the injectors up and i cant mount the fuel rail. I hope this makes sense I've asses a few photos.    Thanks so much guys. 
    • So, to run the 4g aerials to the booster, I had to get access to the rear bulkhead....bit of a mission. Hot tip, don't offer to help change the rear shocks for a mate with a v37.... Remove seat base, 2 clips that slide forward to release it the it lifts straight out Fold down rear seat (pull in from boot) The side bolster of the rear seat is not connected to the middle parts that fold. To remove unbolt at the bottom bolt then push it up off the top hook Then there is a plastic surround behind the seat back, 2 pop out clips, 2 bastard clips, some swearing at it is out Pop the rear seat latch surround off Remove door surround lower trim then side trim  Remove c pillar trim - 4 clips, pull inwards not forwards Remove metal brace - 5 bolts 1 nut Then you have got to the rear strut top...what a pain!
