Yep illegal to run an orange if cop believes you had time to stop. Hes well within his rights to book you. EDIT (aka translation): Illegal run orange cos cop see you stop. Always book you for that.

beat me davo

early pintaras (shape before the trx) had the r31 body, but a ca20 4cyl motor - those were rwd. And shit Newer ones with the ka24 i'm sure are fwd. Theyre also the same car as the ford corsair. Not a bad car, but i'd probably spend my money elsewhere.

Interesting - ive always associated valvoline with shitty xf falcons and commos (and even then it seemed to burn off pretty quick- lol i used to own them). Hmm often do ride ons need rebuilds?

standard r33 IC is 185mm(H) x 205(W)x60(D). That works out to be 2275.5cm3 34 core - 225mm(h)x205mm(w)x80mm(t) = 3690cm3 % difference = 2275 / 3690 x 100 = 61% Heres a pic to show the size difference (taken by someone else not me) Width is the same, its just a bit taller and is 2cm thicker. 100% bolts in everything fits like its supposed to be there - cheapest upgrade you can get.

Yeah too be honest where theres smoke they'res fire - i wont be using nengun when there are alternatives, specially after reading this tread and others of late. Thats unless i see some turn around with people posting that all the above problems got sorted and some sort of offical apology was issued. Even then i would be sceptical

Might be able to get it up to 180rwkw i imagine. For reliability i decided to leave it at 10psi for now (specially with how hot it is atm) but next time its on the dyno might as well crank it to 12psi to see what it could run.

haha apparenlty

My ears are burning That was 10psi choy, not 12. Can post pre and post dynos if anyones interested. And yeah, for a cheap upgrade you cant beat it. I did the maths and its 61% bigger than the r33 one. Bolts in like it was made for the 33, installed mine the afternoon i got it off choy in 30 minutes, you dont even need to take the front bar off. For defect avoidance it looks 100% stock too- cos it IS stock Plus you minimise lag since it uses stock piping and really is quite a small core compared to your hybrid styles for example. Should be good for up to 200rwkw or so i'm told. Go the GTT cooler B)

ROFL :lol: But seriously dude, details? are they complete cars with all parts for sale?? Would you have a set of floormats for a r33?

Wouldn't bathursts conrod straight be longer

nice sedan Sorry to get a bit off topic here but i notice the battery is under the bonnet? are all 33 sedans like that??

Thanks for the advice guys Just hope nothing breaks or boils

Thanks for the advice everyone Never thought about the handbrake, guess i'll bring a wheel chock and leave the car in gear in the pits... Everything else i already put down to common sense. Damn $300 for a helmet, was hoping i could get one cheaper than that.. ah well Wanting to get open faced cos i would have thought it would be easier to see out of (and the temperature thing as someone mentioned). Apart from the wheels my cars got tanabe coilovers, strut brace, slotted dba discs on the front, dba ultimate pads front / premium rears, short shifter, r34GTT intercooler, 10psi and around 170rwkw. Not intending to push it too hard as its the only car i got One other thing- obvioulsy it would be stupid to drive with the a/c on but i'm pretty sure most still drive with the windows up (unless drifting with one hand hanging out lol).. is that correct?? must get hot in there :lol:

Hi all, Getting on the track for the first time next month, got a couple of questions What sort of helmet is best?? I would think open faced, and they need to be ADR approved right? and motorbike style helmets, just they'res some nice open surfing helmets etc.. on ebay. Where do you buy them from?? any other places than motobike shops (who charge an arm and a leg). was thinking something like this: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Excellent-Black-ARA...1QQcmdZViewItem Searched for tyre pressure and could only find one post where they said 40psi is best - i have hankook k104 235/45/18s on the front and falken ziex (yes crap i know) 265/35/18s on the back. Any other advice for a track noob?? Cheers smile.gif (I posted this in the club motorsport section but seems pretty quiet there, apologies to mods for crossposting)

i thought it was just for people to post a "i just ran a 1.34 at some track" type thing (same as the dyno posting threads), so didn't even look at them What events are running in april??

Spend quite a bit of my time working out at toowoomba and seen a couple of nice lines about, (not to mention copping plenty of bogan abuse lol) is anyone from there on the forums?

Same here, had no idea there were 'unoffical' track days, been on the forums for a few months now and noone seems to have mentioned them. Feb 21 hmm... will get back to you but is very tempting

Stock ecu, internals, turbo, injectors and pump. Jasma exhaust (turbo back but no split dump) Blitz bov Apexi pod 1st run - stock boost 7psi 2nd run- 10psi via turbotech boost valve and r34gtt intercooler
