Hey

Copyme if you claim to have 400kw + at the wheels then why didn't you try drag me a couple weeks ago. I saw you boosting around with that crazy Honda S2000 with the number plate phonix. I was in the blue R33 if you remember. anyway from the way you were pulling away from me it almost looked impossible for you to have that much power cause you were just barely pulling on me and i only got 209.9kw. WHen we got to line up you didn't even try and drag and then once i slowed down you zoom past me. whats up with that?

perhaps if he is like me, he doesnt want to drag EVERY boy racer who pulls up next to him.

I had some moron stop (yes, complete stop) in the middle of traffic in Elizabeth yesterday, wait for me to get up alongside him and wanted to drag!

not calling you directly a boyracer, but there are a lot of like minded imbeciles on the road, who have something to proove at every red light, regardless of what they have pulled up next to.

This thread really is taking on the proportions of a witch hunt.

Well i have the Dyno sheets to prove what i have at the wheels. I go cruising with those boys heaps, and well i cant remember another particular R33 wanting to drag. sorry. No offence but i probably didn't think you were enough of a challenge.

Iam back on my P-plates now and am trying to keep my license this time.

Dominik, if you want to have a drag, and have me blow ur doors off, PM during the week and we can organise a time and place to go for a quarter mile street run. Up to you dude if your trying to discredit me.

I'd hate to know exactly how much, I was working on the theory that there is too much porn on the internet, so I am going to download it all and save the rest of you. (You have to love unlimited broadband connections ) - not that ADSL crap:-)

I've e-mail and PMed you before, about more details on your Car.....yet no reply.

The information required for anyone contemplating purchase is lacking.

These days to buy a GTR's is cheap and they are as common as horse S##T.

But to transform a GTR into a real and unique car (in my terms) can be expensive, time consuming, but above all annoying, due to the assholes you have to deal with along the way and in the industry.

But consider this...on a car that is becoming COMMON the more you've spent the more you will lose....and depreciation sets in rapidly as time passes. You have to have a passion and a willingness to accept loss, when time comes to sell.

My TOYS are two at the moment.

A MY 2000 STI..... costs...about $80,000 to buy and modify (market value $36K to $40k)

A R33 GTR v-spec..... costs...stop counting (time is pissing me off)

The move to the GTR was for greater power satisfying potential (headroom).

Thinking out aloud here....I should have stroked the STI, then modified the box.

Have looked at an STI plus $50k changeover on a R34 vspec II in the Unique Mag, but only get secondhand information of interest from some empolyee and no definate answer.

Approached another MELB. dealer who also advertised a Ti. color R34 vspec with 6000k's on the clock at $89k....they never e-mailed me anything.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS INDUSTRY

No promises....but seriously more information on your Car.

A mutual price is only relevant to the facts.

Sorry i Hav'nt got an e-mail from you or a PM?! R34 GTR are not going to be a common skyline for atleast a few years, due to the restrictions on importing and lack of compliance (Bullshit!)

The blue R34 GTR V-spec II in Melbourne, is actually just a GTR, that has had a v-spec II bonnet put on it. Take it for a drive and you can tell that the vehicle has been severly crashed and had afront cut welded on to replace the damage. (Not the greatest repair job either). Pop the bonnet and you will see the non-nissan replacement parts and the bog under the radiator supports.

I have e-mailed you some pics and a list of whats been done, aswell as my contact number.

The Silver R34 GTR in Melbourne with 6000kms or so on it, is a completely standard V-spec non a bad car either.

      RB20 in need of modest love injection

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.

      RB20 in need of modest love injection

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy

      R33 GTR lift points for hoist

      By Duncan · Posted

      FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.

      Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
