Just my 1/2 cents worth, Does anyone know if POWERPLAY or UNIQUE AUTOSPORTS is better ? Not many d1ckheads u can trust with an import nowadays.

Hey guys, I've got a question regarding the installation of a boost controller into a SER II R33 GTST. Firstly, I've picked up a simple bleed-valve-type controller from Turbosmart, I'm using this until I get a digital unit in a month or two. Now, what I need to know is, from the factory, there's a tee-piece in between the vacuum source and the turbo actulator, this tee is branched off to a solnoid which bleeds back to the inlet. The question is, if I installed the Turbosmart bleed valve in the place of this Tee-piece (with the arrow pointing towards the actulator), do I simply block off the vacuum line running to the Solnoid? would it effect the overall performance of the car by doing this? I noticed there are wires coming from this solnoid so would it effect the way the ECU process imformation by disabling this particular parameter? Or should I disconnect the wires running to this solnoid altogether? Cheers guys, any help with this is highly appreciated. My email is [email protected]

It's always the way...... if it's not you, it's usually (101% of the time) them. Sorry to hear that Danny, I remember seeing your beast at Newcastle that day, hope u get her fixed soonies.

Same thing happened to me the night before the Newcastle Cruz a coupla weeks back but it was minor, I parked my '33 out the front of my mates place while we were inside having a session, then suddenly we all heard a light noise like two cars had made contact, I didn't bother going outside at the time to look cause we were all pretty bent and we weren't actually sure if anything did happened. I found the scuff mark on my front bumper a few days later. I know who it was because of the color of the mark left on my car but the stupid bitch didnt even have the decency to come to the door to let us know. If it was me who done that, I would've at least left a note on their window or something. Ever since then, the girl pretends that she didnt see us everytime we cross path...... guilty conscience maybe.......

IS this thing on or what? nobody else's posted a reply...... if its on, Im there, went to the newcastle cruise last w/e and it rocked..... Someone lets us know here...... I'll check back later on tonight to see if its on, I live 5 mins away from panthers.

16TH JAN HOMEBUSH PARKING P6...... I'M IN Simon Mok Burgundy R33 GTST --- ASN 42E with a little GFB sticker on top of rear window.

By the way guys, I just heard some1 mentioned the 'W' word....'Warranty'. Well, I'm not getting paid for sayin this but any1 interested should check out 'JAPLINK' at Haberfield in Sydney, they import Skylines along with many others. I recently picked up a serII R33 with 3 years warranty and 1 yr rd-side assistance. I know the law in NSW says any commercial importers must provide a min 3 months, but try 3 YEARS @ JAPLINK !! When I picked up my '33, they had a Silver GTR V-spec sittin there..... real horny lookin'... Plus most places instantly voids ya warranty as soon as they realise you've modified ya ride, well, JAPLINK modifies ya ride for ya and keeps ya warranty in one piece. GO TALK TO ROB !

HCR32.... Grow up, I mean ppl here would prefer constructive comments...like, the V-spec II is pretty much 3 X the value of the most expensive car he's got in his list..... I say stick with the R32 or go the R33 V-spec... more down on earth i think.

Now we all know where 'P6' is !! wooohooo....

In a way I dont agree with the cops pickin on Skylines, Ive been in mine for a month or two now, I've driven past them everywhere and they havent bothered even lookin at me. Peoples: Dont make ya Skylines attention seekers! leave ya GREDDY stickers off the side of ya rides, dont act like cop-baits and you wont be. But then again, you get fools n idiots in every part of our society

Stupid old clueless fool. Its not the car, its the friggin ATTITUDE of the friggin driver(s) that cause the problem(s). I've been driving on our 3rd world country roads for at least 15 years now and I finally gather up enough balls to go out and buy a R33, why? because I know 'P' platers CANT handle pissin into a pot talkin about handlin a high performance import..... Grow up kiddoes.

Binky.....I fully agree.....thats why this IS a Skyline forum and not a Muzza forum.

Errr....wrong forum buddy.

Speakin of stickers, I used to drive a rather rare '75 2door Galant and everybody thought it was a rotor, so I had a sticker made up '100% NON ROTARY'. Got pulled up by the boys in blue one day and all he said to me was 'Nice sticker kid, I hate rotors too...' I like that cop.

Y on earth would u wanna paint a CF bonnet anyways ??

Now how many import yards lets u get away with mods without voidin ya warranty ? if u get any warranty at all !

I just picked up a '97 R33 GTST ser II for $26k with the full GTR kit, nice 17s,3 YEAR WARRANTY (YES ! THATS RIGHT ! 3 YEARS !!! ) , road side assistance and the yard (JAPLINK) thats got their own workshop actually encourages customers to modify their rides - I get Rob (Mechanic - Japlink- top bloke!!) to do all the work on mine, front mount and E-boost going in next fortnight.

Sl!m......not a very funny joke about stealing someones elses beast.... considering the amount of threats towards the thieves that ripped off that nice R32 the other night. So F*&KIN GROW UP !

By the way, hope u know if its a pre - '95 (pre series 1.5) Skyline, its actually illegal to remove the factory AIRBAG wheel ! so keep wishin !

Red900SS' idea with the dying moose sounds alright....... what does it sound like ?? come on guys......

what about a led cluster in the shape of my middle finger for a piggy solute huh?

Shoot the Bastards. Period.

Can someone actually let me know where 'P6' is? I live in Syd and Im keen to join this cruz in my '33 - my first cruz so go easy on me. plz email me at [email protected] with the details of the actual location of the meeting point for the 16th Jan. Cheers guys.

If I get my FMIC on there then I'm in, haven't been to Oran park since when they ran the Supernats there years ago....sounds fun.....

Bring in on!
