Hi guys!

NewB here, I had a look around here and couldn't really find the answer...

Anyone on the Sunshine Coast know anyone who can align a R33 w/HICAS? Seems nobody knows how, I even rang Nissan and their workshop claimed they can't :(

I'd travel to Brisbane if I knew for sure it'd get sorted... ta.

Peddars should be able to do a wheel alignment no problem. Although I would advise against using then for any real skyline work, I was told they could remove hicas no problem(lockout kit provided) $750 later my power steering pump was fked, and bad fluid leaks.

Just my experience.

Thanks for the heads up again guys!

I've already done some easy wins like gets the red jacket coil packs and 3" exhaust, boost controller to ~12psi and an ?R32 wastegate actuator?

I want more but I'm chasing more control/stability first and get some wider rubber on the front, I've fallen to 215's on the front cause the others were shot. The back is sweet :)

So I'll look at more power and then maybe lockout hicas but I haven't taken her to a track day yet so don't really know if HICAS is going to be an issue at all? I hear it recommended but how bad does it mess with your drive?

Removing HICAS from a 33 is a damn sight easier than removing it from a 32.

Much more power will require an ECU upgrade because you'll soon hit RnR.

Nothing overly wrong with it, until you break traction. Then who knows how it will try and kill you :P

    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
