had an interesting spot last night....

was walking to my car when i noticed a funny looking muffler on an 89' shape integra. i stopped and had a closer inspection. to my surprise it was a dirty big turbo charger! Kudos to you buddy! i've heard of that setup before, but haven't seen it, let alone on an integra!

As chris said, nextr time it happens you need to look at the computer in the boot and see how many times it flashes etc, PM me with what its doing. My book might tell me whats causeing it.

Ed said he checked and there were no errors coming up. He finally managed to get it to play up slightly today. He said the last GTR he had with this exact same issue was a real bitch to find the problem because it was intermittant and it turned out to be a grounding problem. So he's fitted some earth straps and we'll see where it goes from there.

Was certainly good to have her back :)

Yeah that was me, i was having fun with a SS commodore.

Awesome I was hoping you were a member. Yeh I saw the commie trying to harrass you. I was going to set chase and surround him with lines'. I was so tired, I could barely keep my eyes open, didnt think flicking over to full boost and going nuts was a good idea. Nice ride though mate. Love the kit

Dark r32 on Northbourne-Barton Highway- Gungahlin Drive - tonight, cruised with them for a while, then in usual fashion boosted off like an idiot.

Spotted a chick driving a silver R33 down northbourne, gave the nod. Then I proceeded to re-enforce the poor current selection of rear tyres at a certain set of lights, with some insanely stupid fishtail action. But did top off the drive home by smoking a very nice lookin evo, literally smoked it at one set of lights. Love the old tires, throws up some nice smoke through the first 3 gears on full boost lol

spotted a silver R33 on the Barton Hwy this arvo about 3pm.... not sure if they're on here but he flashed his lights from behind and then we exchanged a wave as he went past me.

I thought you would have recognised me or at least the car :)

Spotted a dark - couldn't tell if it was blue or black R32 driving through the road that passes through the shops at Gungahlin about 2 hours ago.

Also spotted a silver R33 at the roundabout near the servos in Gunners about 20 minutes ago, I was parked in the blue S3.

Could have been me. I was there about then.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
