G'day guys. Good day for all I think. Would be a big day from North Gosford. Coppers seem to have left things alone because of the reason for the cruise. The missus is still chuffed about winning some stuff in the raffle, especially some doof doof by DJ Pepe & DJ Sparx. Will have to cruise around Nowra keeping it real from here on in. Thoroughly enjoyed it. El Bee & Humbla

Just saw the 2nd post above by SW20-GT with a link to say you will be attending. A good idea to put your name in as going (for organisational purposes perhaps) if you are definitely in. See you there ! El Bee

Totally awesome ! Myself, Humbla, Waynos & gf had a great day. Our guys and the D1 drivers showing what it is all about. My first look at this type of motorsport. Won't be my last. Congrats to anyone involved. A great spectacle. El Bee

Have had the same problem (intermittent) for 2 yrs now. Can be very annoying when it happens and often seems to do it just to piss you off. Mine is occasionally accompanied by a wisp of smoke from the steering column, like a component or some PCB track is getting cooked. It surprises me that the indicators still work. In short, I cannot really give you any clues but, I will watch this thread closely. And you are not alone. El Bee

Colour code DN0. FAST software says Metallic Green. Commonly known as Ice Green. I know of only one other R33 in this colour (gday Belgarrion). Enjoy ! El Bee

Excellent promo. Check out the "mohawk" on the pommy guy being interviewed early on. El Bee

Count us in elbee111 & Humbla (one car). Obviously living in Nowra makes it easy for us. Will get to the C'Town spot on the day. All the best. El Bee & Humbla

Some old school games here. Atari type console games: Space Invaders Asteroids Frogger Pitfall 286 PC (did not have a hard drive but I added one.... 40 MEG!) F19 Stealth Fighter Prince of Persia (kept me enthralled for months before I finally finished it) Enjoy! El Bee

I have Sony Xplod. Don't know how they compare with the magnet and basket sizes. El Bee

NYL83R, Mine has done this since bought 2 yrs ago next month. (clunk sound about 5 or 6 times then no prob) I don't see it as an issue with mine. Enjoy. El Bee

I think the nick of "Slim" is already taken.

Have to agree with pooski. I have 6x9's in R33 rear shelf without cutting or MDF. Just needs to be angled right to follow the "D" cutout of the body. El Bee

Boys, You're just not drinking enough. Alcohol is a diaretic. So gets rid of excess fluid. Beer is good. "Steak in a glass" as they say. And factor in all that exercise going to and from the bar/fridge. Ever seen a fat alcoholic ? Just stay away from Kebabs. It will only end in tears anyway (and probably vomiting and/or diahorrea). I'm taking this on the road soon, but no evangelical consultancy fees to you guys in SAU. Enjoy !! El Bee

Just took me 1 or 2 goes to enter the info in the correct fields and all good from there. Am hoping that funkymonkey or others are able to work out how to query the databases on stuff. eg I want to know the number of vehicles made with my paint code. ps Your colour 326 shows as white btw.

shoey, FAST basically says R32, 10/92, colour 326, interior = G, 5 speed GTR. El Bee *Damn, somebody beat me to it again. It sucks being old and feeble*

Onya funkymonkey, Would be nice to be able query the system on this sort of stuff. Good luck. Hope to hear of some success asap. El Bee

Thanks Duncan, I am sure that if the correct databases are found, we could work out a query for this. Not too many would be interested in my case, but there may be other situations where a good query would be helpfull. How many blues were made etc ? Just think that it would be nice to know, especially if I were going to sell for a GTR or something. Enjoy. El Bee

supra, My rails certainly aren't stuffed and I refuse to stuff them myself. I refer to my earlier post if you are doing an oil change, by running up on one car ramp sideways !? If I had to jack it, it would be by the crossmember /diff as mentioned by others. El Bee

Gday all, Asked a similar question in Dec 2002 but there has been additions to our knowledgebase since then. My R33 has paint code DN0. Variously known as Ice Green, Aqua Blue or Green Metallic depending on who you ask/what you read. I have recently obtained the FAST software and delved into some of its files. This is where I found the "Green Metallic" mentioned above. I am only aware of a few R33's in this colour. Sooooooooo, my questions are: Does anybody know how many R33s were made in this colour ? Would this info be available easily through FAST ? If not, would I be able to query the database for these fields ? Is there someone close to the source who could find out for me ? Do I have to spend the next 30 years going through each VIN to find out ? I think that's about it. Any advice/discussion welcome. El Bee

b2barker, I get Model: GGKBRTFR33VDAA---- Produced: 93/08 Colour:AN0 Interior:K RB25DET, HICAS, 2WD, GTST/M, 5Speed El Bee *edit gts4 beat me to it*

This is the engine manual only, re the R33. Yes ? Like the one I have is 149Meg pdf file ? El Bee

Use the puller. You can damage stuff when you "tap" a steering column with a hammer. I know. El Bee

Supra, Parking brakes only work on the rears to my knowledge. Doesn't surprise me that you can turn the front wheel by hand El Bee

Are these things the absolute bestest way to increase your temperatures under the bonnet or what?

Thanks guys, Well after all my efforts I am disgusted, totally disgusted, as I heard today that they have bought a VP 5.0 Litre Commodore. After all of my advice etc etc it looks as though there will be a challenge from the Commodore camp. We really don't want to hurt them too much but......... so be it. Thanks for the replies. This thread is dead unless someone wants to take over my original question. Enjoy! El bee
