  1. bah, just sold my car, so no need to do the computer swap Cheers for the help though guys, I reckon it would have needed that boost sensor though!
  2. Hmm, no, just go the regular RB25DET AFM and standard RB25DET PFC! Just don't have the boost sensor like standard '33's do. It's actually a pretty standard setup, stock turbo, stock injectors, stock sensors. Makes about close to 200kw at 14psi. I might give it a shot and take it somewhere for them to check the a/f ratio, etc.
  3. Cheers, so by retuned, is it a simple task of just adjusting the CAS and whatever else to work with the slightly different engine, or are we talking a major effort to get it up and running? Also, without the boost sensor will it do stupid things (like retard the timing)?
  4. I'm looking at removing the powerFC from my RB30DET for use in another car. The engine is using a standard RB25 loom and injectors/sensors, the only difference being I don't use a boost sensor. What are the chances of simply plugging-and-playing a standard R33 computer into it and driving away?
  5. Items: R33 standard RB25 computer Extra Info: Anywhere in the adelaide area I can pick up over the weekend! Contact Details: Drop me a pm
  6. After one of these beasties, surely with every second skyline having a powerFC, there must be thousands laying around in peoples sheds? Drop me a PM - Cheers, - Gav.
  7. Looks like their domain name expired...
  8. mind if i ask how much that set you back?
  9. Do slide still do their highflow turbos? Last time I looked, couldn't see them on the website.
  10. I've done a lot of searching about it, and most people seem to go aftermarket options for cruise control, however it seems that there was an option to have cruise control installed on an R33 - and there's a "holder" for the cable next to the accelerator cable. My question is, does anyone have a photo of the throttle body setup with factory cruise installed? I had planned to just use a VL one, but the setup seems to be a bit different. Cheers!
  11. Items: 2x 18" tyres (~225's, possibly 235's) Extra Info: 2nd hand perferably, but if you've got some newies, happy to consider - just can't spend a fortune. Contact Details: PM
  12. as far as I know, you don't need a spare, BUT if you do have one, it needs to be legal.
  13. bah! that's a pain - anyone got a set of rb25 ones for sale (or just a week or so borrowing purposes!) ?
  14. Thanks heaps... might drop up sometime in the next week or two ( i'll PM you ).
  15. They look very similar, and actually, if I remember correctly ash put RB20 ones on his for stealth effect haha. Probably going to get them sprayed in 2pac, in a tangerine (orange/red) colour.
  16. Hey all - Might be a long shot, just wondering if anyone has a set of RB25 rocker covers I could 'borrow' or 'buy' in adelaide so I can get my current ones painted. Are RB20 and 25 covers interchangeable? Cheers!
  17. Pretty basic question - Are the standard issue rb25 spark plugs suited for the rb30det? Asked about them at repco, and they want $27ea for platinum "oem" sparkplugs, sounds a bit rich to me (used to paying about that for a set of 6 haha).
  18. Over the past week when i'm stopped near buildings/objects that reflect sound, etc, or cars stopped next to me at the lights, i've been heading a 'tinkling' metal-on-metal kind of noise, it's coming from the left hand side of the car as far as I can tell - and gets slightly louder by 0psi (from -20ish vaccum/idle), and then disapears. It is only really noticable at idle and very low (<2000) revs. At the moment, my theory is the turbo is shot... bearings or something, it's just a good 'olde ceramic r33 s2 stock turbo. Is this the sort of thing i should stop driving straight away, or is it just likely a worn bush or something that will be fine lasting a few weeks until I organize a replacement? Not sure if this is a common symptom, although I know these turbos can shatter which worries me. Cheers as always
  19. Just after a quick power up for my rb25/30 - currently running the stock rb25 turbo and would like something larger before I upgrade to a 35/40 next year, after something that will bolt directly onto the std. manifold and dump pipe (if possible). cheers
  20. haha waited soooo long to see RH9 run on the dyno, but got bored after about 20mins of them farting around :\
  21. Depending on numbers I guess, would you be open to having a 'shared day' with some calais turbo people? We were thinking of having one around then as well at boostworx. These aren't your typical boongers ripping skidz down hindley street haha. http://calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=83052
  22. sorry i thought this was the S.A. section? haha Coopers ftw - been drinking the dark ales recently, very nice!
  23. spotted vange following me up king william road on friday night a bit after 8pm, and foolboost out at BP west terrace
  24. spotted a grey R32, looked like a chick driver, on nottage tce, blocking up a lane in peak hour with the R.A.A lol Hope everything was ok!
