My baby performed well, suspension setup and swaybars seemed really nice and planted :) The AD08R's were just amazing, I had no clue that cars could turn corners at that much speed and I still didn't even feel like I was pushing them at all :|

I'm having the same issue when logging in, every time gives me an error page after signing in..?

I think it's to do with the domain change recently. Change your bookmarks to www.sau.com.au instead of www.skylinesaustralia.com and it should fix it.

just for you HSV is putting the GTS supercharged motor in a maloo....

few tweeks and there you go

Whats the retail on one of those? *inb4 more than you can afford pal*

Need to finance it against my mortgage

Still don't quite understand some 34 GTR owners, buying a 90s car for 45k sometimes just doesn't compute.

I mean if you can afford it outright, sure do what ever the hell you want I guess.. otherwise just go the r33

I used to think this way, but when you consider what else is around for the same money and the quality of it (or lack thereof), they aren't a bad buy if you can forget how old it is. Think it's more a case of the other cars in the Skyline range being undervalued for what they are. You get a lot more car than $6k worth when you buy a 33 GTS-T for example. Mine is bulletproof, or has been anyway, at nearly 20 years old. Meanwhile, people with brand new Volkswagens that don't look any good, are slower and breaking in 6 months...

New cars suck so much ass that I'll prolly buy 90s and early 00s cars for the rest of my life

    • It makes you wonder, all these people starting to make a billet replacement head, I wonder if any have thought about trying to adapt tech from newer engines into them. You're already at the full design stage to make a billet head... Why not really spice it up and had some more modern tech into the mix too...
    • Connect all the plumbing up properly. The actual worst part about having the turbo unable to actually build boost, is you can and likely would over soon the turbo if you drove the car (free rev while stationary isnt likely to manage it).   If you do have an air leak as Duncan suggested, you'll have a bad time as the AFM will be saying different to reality.   As you have had the engine out, I'd go over all electrical connections again. If you have a consult cable, plug it in, and see what the ECU thinks is going on. Did you touch the timing belt? If so, double check your timing on the gears is correct AND put a timing light on it while it's idling and see what ignition setting you have. Is the AFM you've installed the one that was in the car previously? You said you replaced seals, what seals exactly? What have you had apart?   From memory when I had my RB25DET with factory throttle, there was two plugs the TPS plug on the loom could go to. One would leave the car running like shit, the other made it work, I think one plug on the TPS area was for something else (an option). It's too many years since I saw that part of the loom to remember properly though.   Is the car idling smooth (as smooth as an RB can)? Does it smell fuelled up?   I have a feeling either timing in timing belt is off, or a sensor isn't right.
    • Theres still skid pan and motokhana days up in QLD at least that are $100 or less. The ones that are ran as "driver training" less so, they're expensive, but just normal skid pan days like SAU ran are still low cost. And thats one of the places I learned to be a lariken, purely by asking for passenger rides, and how people were doing crazy things. Reese gave me plenty of pointers back in the day for skid pan! And yes Duncan, I will never forget your pointers for track work. Especially after Neil got out saying "I am NEVER getting in the car with him again!" 😛
    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
