^^^^ Is this what you do when your meant to be at work. LOL After you pissed off yesterday, leaving me a box of bits to fit, I've done nought. Thanks for the help!

Well the good news is the MS3 pro gear for the ecu has turned up. My mate has been over to talk about setting this bad boy up. He will talk more about it, as he's the brains of the deptment. I've been left with the job of setting up the added sensor for the ecu, to control the motor. I'm hopeful of getting a start on Saturday, but work is out of control, but that pays the bills for the toys. So swings and roundabouts, got money got no time, got time got no money! I've also picked up an KAAZ 2 way diff off a forum member on this site and he's very kindly shipping it north for me. So the 10k maybe pushed a little

One thing I've found, on the track, you don't normally have time to look at gauges. If you can get gauges with a output alarm, it's a big plus, as you can wire it to a led light on the dash. To give you a indication of some thing is wrong. Just my 2cents

If I makes you feel better, I lost 10k on my last track car and 2k on my excel cup car I'm lucky it's 50ks to Lakeside,QR or Mt Cotton, I'm smack bang in the middle. I've given up on Lakeside, been 3 times crashed twice. Not a nice place to exit, or run out of talent, in a hurry. Should also state, I'm no gun behind the wheel. I'm just out there living the dream, for fun and the donuts!

My last track car was a mx5, my mates use to call it my handbag. So a R33 has to be a step up in street cread I think the hate comes from the fact that the R32 was such a iconic and well loved car, it was always going to be a hard act to follow.

Yes I would like a 2 way. It's only money . Anyone got one for sale?

Starting to get there Stripped out most of what I don't need for the track, A/C, Air bags..... First of the new parts. So far so good, no real problems, little bit of wiring to fix up from the last owner. Small amount of rust. These skyline are very nice to work on, even stripping out the A/C was no big problem. So fingers crossed for the rest of the build. Parts have been ordered for the Megasquirt. There will be a full write up on this, very hopeful to get this up and running, we are going to use a oem case. so it should look like a stock ecu. May be good for on the street. I.E. police friendly.

Right place right time cash in the pocket.I'm hoping to keep the build under 10k. Would like the car to do a sub 60sec on the sprint track at QR. Was looking at getting stuck in on Friday, but works it out of control at the moment. I hopeful to have a couple of photo up dates after the week end. Thanks for the kind words Cheers

Yep, Gone to a race school in Sydney. The excel cup car is gone as well. Not a lot of racing for a na mx5 up here in Brisbane, unless you like getting lapped by super cars. I though about, doing a turbo set up for the track. Even with myself doing most of the work, there wasn't going to be any change out of 15k. So I cut my losses. R33 seems like a good base to work off. Parts are cheap and well supported. Keep the motor stockish and try and knock some weight out of it. So far it's been a lot of fun to work on.

Do you have a fuel pump resistor, ballast? the one that sits in the P/S rear wheel well. If so could you please PM. Cheers Nigel

I thought I had better pop in and say hi. I've been racing a MX5 for the last 3 years, but I've ran out of talent and need to go faster, so I choose horse power I'm hoping to have this up and running for the QR sports and sedans in Nov. I was looking at R32, but most seem knacked or over priced, so the red headed step child of Nissan, seemed like a better option! I purchased this R33 GTST for 5k with a RWC. I'm not one, to tell people how to suck eggs. So I'm not a big poster, this is more so people can see what I'm building, so if I buy from the, for sale section, they see I'm not about to rip them off. So far, to empty my bank account: I also can't thank them enough, the service has been second to none! I've used; Just Jap racing, 19 row oil cooler, gauges and boss kit. GKtech, can't wait to get my hands on the full new V3 kit, plus almost every thing else he sells for the R33. Garage One, for a nice new set of BC Racing ER series coil overs. AGI, for there top of the line Nat spec 6 point cage. GSL Rally sport for new rotors and Project MU pads. Nitto NT-01 Semis D.I.Y. auto tune for a GSlender MS3 pro mega squirt, to run a full standalone ECU Yes that's right a mega squirt. Fingers crossed we should have that up and running soon. These ECU are really big in the Miata turbo world. So Grant and I are pretty sure we can get this to run in a R33, without to much problems. It's what I'm use to using, we will see how we go. Cheers
