Plenty of drafting work around ;)

It's my budget racer Griff, so everything is done with best bang-for-buck in mind :thumbsup:

Bubba you a draftee?

*Bro fist bump!*

Been working away in Karratha for some extra money, will hopefully be able to release some of those funds for the 32, if the wife will let me (who am I kidding, she'll let me :P )

Been meaning to get a hicas lockout kit since I got the damn thing.

I have an R33 tubro on my RB20 and I was hoping to get it to come on earlier than close to 5 grand.

Any tips?

Willing to sacrifice top end power as I barely get it up there anyway.

Sorry for the late reply mate, been busting my ass getting ready to go away :D

5k is pretty late!

This is what mine was doing when it was an RB20 with a 25 turbo..

Maybe try another actuator and check your cat isn't blocked.. other than that, I can have a look in a couple of weeks :thumbsup:

you're sorry for a late reply? me too then!

Working away, don't check the forums that regularly unfortunately.

There have been a few things I have been told by Danny at imports 101 (who did the tuning for me) to improve the flow of everything, such as replacing the current cat with a high-flow cat. It could very well still be stock for all I actually know about the car. Bought it with the mods it has.

It's amazing how different our dyno graphs are, but it is a bit hard to judge when mine shows km/h rather than rpm :wacko:

I've destroyed a couple of 20 boxes :ermm:

Umm.. A P-plater tried to make the gap across a set of lights in front of me but failed miserably :/ I'd only just got all the teething problems with the new setup sorted and wasn't far from winding some boost into it and getting it tuned :domokun:

Bubba that is no good mate, did he try turn in front of you do u mean? Hope the little punk has insurance!

Yeah turned across in front of me, had time to wash off maybe 5kmh then ploughed into his back left door/wheel/quarter and punted him around into a traffic light pole hard enough to send his sub flying 20m down the road!

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
