Cops can't catch me once vtec kicks in

Cops don't care about you once they hear vtec kick in, they realise that it's a little baby n/a engine and don't even bother stretching the legs of their SS to pull you over. They'll probably see you at the next set of traffic lights anyway.

Here is my 'project' car. One day my dream car after I spend a lot of money on it.

Some of you may have seen it (me and my husband) on Saturday at Racepace

Welcome!

What did you get done at Racepace?

Chris was going over the car, and putting a quote together for what I desire as an end result.

I must say my purse will be the same weight because with such a large price tag the credit card will be getting a work out :P

got her wallet modified for weight reduction :P

Yeah that can happen with Racepace :laugh:

Haha! I see...

So Stage 1 Engine Build?

:)

Stage 1 plus injectors, plus pipes, plus -9s, plus sump, plus fuel pump, plus lots of other goodies that seem to cost more than the original car.

Having said that, after looking around at many of the R33 GT-Rs on car sales and going to see them, I am more then happy to spend the money on a reliable build that is done by a shop with a very good reputation.

Chris seemed very professional, and while perhaps higher priced than some builders his shop had a lack of hammers that was of considerable comfort :P

Once it is mechanically sound, I look forward to getting rid of the god awful silver. Might night purple will be my colour of choice.

    • The nissan manual says to change coolant every 2 years. Is this still necessary if you're using coolant like Penrite or nulon which has improved over the years? It says it lasts 500,000km which seems hard to believe lol.
    • According to the Muse website, totally different material. The originals were that horrible solid foam rubber that was used for a lot of rear spoiler/flap things, like on Mitsu Galan GSRs. Heavy, and with enough compressibility/flex that any paint on them would crack fairly quickly. The Muse ones are just ABS, which is obviously similar to GTR lower front lip, etc etc. ABS is a good choice if you have the ability to tool up for it. The only thing better might be TPU-RIM or something equivalent. The TPUs were good. Plenty of flexibility (in twisting, bending, etc) but not really in compression.
    • Update 24/01/2025:    Bought a GReddy/Trust Intercooler (crossflow spec-LS) that was meant for a R33 GTST $871 AUD shipped, and a GReddy Profec boost controller $483 AUD, both brand new from Japan. Being honest, I would've thought the intercooler kit was discontinued but I guess not yet. Decided due to funds + time, I'll stick with a nistune on this stock-ish setup ( stock turbo set to probably 10-12psi ) and have it run cleaner ( suspect the 3" turbo back etc has sh*tted on my economy ) for my trip down south soon for the WSBK. Hopefully I can get it all installed and tuned by then. As for who I am getting it tuned with, I will be going with Toshi, (not hearing back from DVS so scratch that). There is also Birrong Auto but not sure if they do nistune installations and if they even tune it... Otherwise, anyone know where I can get my hands on an aluminium intake/suction pipe for an RB25DET NEO?
    • The german cars I've worked on seem to have that issue(in more than just headlights). Mostly where hot, but also just the insulation hardening and cracking in various places. Not abnormal from what ive seen.
    • According to the Muse website, similar material, but not the same. Meant to help with stopping the paint cracking. In saying that, I had genuine ones on my last grt, and never had that problem.   Could you post pics when you get them? Very much thinking of buying the Muse ones over fibreglass.
