Helllllllllooooooooo I'm still here, just got the suspension changed in my 34 today actually. So I'll be spending a little more time driving it around now. I have some sad news though, I'm moving

Blew the cobwebs out of @Sinista32 last Sunday for a few hours. It's great to get the passion back every so often

No you just tried to give him a run. Stop telling us how you are driving like a dickhead.

Saw 3 Wine Red R33 Skylines driving from Kingston to Civic tonight.  A nice white 33 outside insomnia.  One or two more here and there.  So many 33's :S

Good to see a few more 34s out, someone break the ice and bring in a 34GTR :)

Try finding a decent one. I did... for 6 months. :)

A few decent one's around - Only problem is they are mainly well into the 100 grand mark. And the way compliance plates R going, I don't think there are gonna be many more anytime soon (Anyone know if 34 GTR's are compliable yet?). Contempt, would you still consider trading ur 350z to get one?

Was that your maroon skyline Veilside R33? Mine was the silver one. Got to many red lights and lost you guys in Braddon so we decided to got to head out to Manuka, but yeah there were are few cops out that night and they pulled over some cars.

No, they still can't be bloody complied. :) I talked the guy at Prestige motorsports who added me to a list of R34GTR's that were going at auction over in Japan. I was seeing v-spec 2002 GTR's going for around 60k Australian and the only ones I can see here in Aus are 100+ for standard '99 models... I just couldn't bring myself to pay more then twice what I know the car is worth.

Nah, I'm not gunna be trading in my Z. I'm going be installing either a supercharger or a twin turbo system soon. I talked to one of the guys from APS (unichip guys) Who are currently testing a 330+k/w package that will put my Z into the 11's :D He invited me down to Melb to come for a drive in around 6 weeks when the testing is finished. Woo hoo.

I will probably hold onto this till some time after the new GTR comes out.

he silverslyder yeah that was me, yeah i made sure i got a car or 2 behind paul, cause i knew he'd be up the front or at least know where to go if we broke up.... nice car by the way buddy, first one i noticed when i got there.

i looked for you again when we stopped and again when we met up later...so i just assumed you got lost or headed off. half of the cars got lost anyway....prolly luckier for you anyway, the cops woulda had a feild day had all of the cars been there.

Thanks for the compliment. Luckily me and my mate brought our walkie talkies which came in handy as he was closer to the front in his maroon 200sx, there the best little things for cruises. We just headed off because everyone went in different directions (didn't think it was that organised) but it wasn't a bad turn out they seemed like a friendly bunch of people.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂

      Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges.

      I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.

      Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
