Hi all im a newbie here, met all of you at the Hawker formal tonight! I was in the Silver R33 Gtst SII that Sxygtst (jon) used to own. It was possily my biggest "Spotted" when I cleared the crowed and drove round to find about 10 (maybe more) hot lines' parked lining the exit! (all of you guys) So thanks to SINISTA (richard?) for introducing me and I look forwardto cruising with you guys!

Anyone spotted me recently? Silver R33 GTST SII? Stock apperance but loud and frequently sideways? I cant get a pick small enough to use as my Avatar!

Spotted! me driving like a grandma because my cluctch slipped to the point where it revs whenever you put your foot down! hooray! booked it in with Ed, looking at $1000 for a new Exedy clutch installed, apparently slightly better than stock. I'm not a lead foot so it should do, but ouch! $1000 so close to christmas! i could cry!

Yeah, i was reading it last night. I knew my clutch was on the way out so i was looking at my options. I'm just going with what Ed offered. I need the car back as soon as possible and this will be the quickest way. Maybe not the cheapest, but hey, I trust Ed to do a good job, and if that means i pay an extra $100 or two on top i dont mind.

But thanks anyways. Oh and that reminds me, i owe you a drink sometime for a certain thing you did to a certain Falcon. :)

Im sure he would be relieved to just do a normal service instead of working on mine and sinistas car, hes probably sick to death of both of them by now :)

    • Another question sorry, what stainless do u use in the turbo external WG plumb back piping? Is it 321, 316 or 304?
    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
