Hey Guys,

I have been on the forums for a while and had planned on saying hi earlier but have been a bit bipolar as to whether I was selling or keeping my 95 R33 GTR VSPEC.

My car is pretty standard save for a set of -7's and an upcoming PFC/EBC install.

I plan on keeping things pretty simple with the car, keeping it fairly stock and clean (as clean as I can)

Anyway if you guys are planning a cruise or a brew (I am in Merewether) let me know.

Cheers,

Dean

sounds good man.

we do need another piss up... maybe after the track day next week :)

Yep we all need to catch up as its been a while!

Welcome in mate, clean white skylines FTW!

yea we do need to organise some drinks again...

any ideas for dates or venues? maybe something like we did ages ago, and meet up somewhere for a beer and a feed, and maybe a small cruise or something???

I've gotta get moved etc which will take me out for the next few weeks.... PLUS the gearbox has to come out of my car after the track day too so ill have to see how we go time wise, ideally for us it would be around 17/11 or somewhere like that...

sounds good around that time.

might be working, well see

We have two weeks off to set up the house etc (Was the time of for SAU NATS but no kesh for that with the new house)...

Did someone say drinks?

Any weekend but the 17/11 is good

Ill be in Port Macquarie with wifey that weekend

What's wrong with gearbox Matt? You broken something again?

Jarred should be an expert at house stuff by now

Nice 33 as well, I'll keep an eye out for it

Just over a month till my blacks. Cannot wait to start driving the thing. Hopefully ill have it all complete by then!

The car is meant to be finished getting paint repairs next week.

As soon as its out, its getting booked in for:

- Cat welded in

- Flanged Screamer Pipe

- Varex Muffler

- New intake pipe to airbox & new hotside cooler pipe

- Few gauges wired up

And if I have enough left over

17x9 +22 Enkei RPF1 wrapped in Federal 595 255/40r17 :D

Also anyone got any recommendations for the pipe work I need done? (local business around newcastle)

- Weld in the cat

- Make a new diff back exhaust pipe to go to the varex / basic fitting of the muffler

- Cut the plumback and add flanges + a new little screamer pipe

- Hotside cooler pipe (to hole in body)

- Turbo > airbox pipe

Also the wiring of the varex & three gauges (water temp/ oil temp/ oil press).

One person ive asked can do it all for about $1000. Does that seem reasonable?

    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here. 
    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
