It was a female driving.

I was going to say, pretty sure it's a female that drives the orange 33. I see it basically every morning heading in the opposite direction to me when I'm driving to work. I'd wave but I'm never in the skyline, so she'd probably think I'm just some chump trying to pick her up.

Wonder if it's the ex J-racing car? Certainly looks like it.

Not a skyline, but spotted a brand new looking Ford Super Duty F-350 at Perisher today... So big and so so awesome. Size does matter when it comes to those things...

Ok ... My apologies to the lady driving the orange 33, I usually dont miss those basics but come to think of it every time I have spotted it it's been parked. But you are right Shell, it does stand out and it does take a while to get over it.

Spotted a white de-winged R33, stock rims on front & somethin' else on the rear, NSW plates, on the GDE after 1pm today.

Driver made a point of blowing off beside me. Sounded like an old Volkswagon and it didn't idle well.

Wish I was going straight at the lights as I would've smashed him. :D

Spotted a white R33 GTR? 20mins later near the Gungahlin Lakes Club.

Spotted a silver R34 GTT on Athlon this morning at about 0810 heading towards town.

Didn't know to wave or not as I'm not your typical youngun. Nice 33GTR you have. :action-smiley-069:

I shoulda jumped earlier to get in front of the truck. Missed every other light all the way into the city :(

Same here, every light then people doing 80 in 100 zone on the Parkway. :verymad:

I will wave next time, I was going to but didn't get a chance as you passed me when I pulled to the left.

Thanks, nice R34 GTT too mate.

Mine needs a good clean. Bloody rain and dust.

I'll wave nest time although I was running later than usual this morn.

I hate the traffic heading into town between 7.15 and 8.30am. Absolutely ropable when I get to work.

Just as a matter of interest how many other 'non typical young-guns' , I.e. over 40's in here?

    • Thanks for the info GTSBoy, legend. If there is no downside i'll likely just get the larger bosch units because why not... I remember hearing stories about people washing their bores with fitment of too large injectors way back when, which i guess has made me shy about it now. But happy to know it shouldn't be an issue. Ozdavroz, the little rb20 is a lot of fun- now that i have a little extra funds and time i am very glad to be tampering with the ol girl again, after so long. More RB20's on the road the better. Cheers, Rowdy
    • ...just a note of warning, you shouldn't drive it about with the TCU in limp mode with only 3rd gear available ~ apart from the fact you end up sheering the ATF at the torque converter interface, the high clutch in these isn't especially the strongest, particularly bolted to the RB25DE mill...which is likely a 4AX01 box with lighter duty high clutch (the RB25DET got the bigger high clutch)...be careful out there...
    • Hoping to do similar mods to my RB20 once I get it running and reliable again
    • As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.
    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy
