I run ID's and if it's below 10 degrees my cars a bitch to start.

If the car has been on the trailer over night in winter and I try to start it at the track I have to wait for the temp to get up to about 10 before it will start.

It was tuned on a 35 degree day which probably didn't help.

Yeah on warm days, even anything above 15 degrees it starts first crank. Cold weather like today you can't even hear it fire a cylinder for the first couple of cranks.

ive read a few articles mentioning the same amount.... maybe it could work.

id be taking it back to tuner and retuning in the cold tho....

Not a bad idea getting a winter touch up tune for it that I can switch to in the cold. Shouldn't cost too much.

yeah I didnt have any great issues either....Maybe its those crappy old Nismo injectors Birds ;)

I'd say it has more to do with the climate the car was tuned in and where you're starting it. My car gets left out on the street these days and inside the carport it does start much quicker. Pretty sure the bottom of my hill goes below sea level too, lol. Injector type or size should be pretty irrelevant; the timing and flow of them in the tune will matter more.

Besides, Nismo injectors are love...dat resale value through the roof. Just like my "outdated" PFC!

Need a tiny electric blanket around your fuel line birds.

Heh I was actually imagining doing something like this, but wrapping the whole engine. Also considered giving the fuel lines one of these

No, I prefer to get irrationally angry at people who get nostalgia about things that are 'silly new things that little kids are into'

Like Pokémon.

How dare this forum autocorrect and add that little thing above the E.

stupid nostalgic forum

well if your car is rwc...why worry?

sif be scared of tmu...just smile and nod politely as you do what they ask, then leave and do what the hell you want anyway

hmm only problem would be too low otherwise car is okay

always rely on much worse cars than yours to steal the spotlight. have seen bagged R32's scrape on modest carpark entrances infront of cops and they just watch to make sure no one does skids.

lol yeah this is true :P or i could just walk, market is pretty close. the melb car meets had a couple of people rev bashing and doing a skid on exit at the docklands one. :/

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
