  1. Had the same thing.Once it stopped working, then when I was sitting at the lights it started rotating on it`s own,weird.Has happened about three times in 140,oookm`s.Hasn`t done it for a while though.
  2. Yep,sounds like air leak.Check blow off valve hose and pcv hose.Even the o-ring on the dip stick.Clean AFM,look for wires that may have been stressed when the motor was put in and have now broken away.Even squirt some carby cleaner down the idle control motor as they can block.
  3. yes rd-runr,the oza395-E2 does fit.This sensor is right provided you ask for the GTST-R33 part.Should be about $80 with correct plug.Order through Auto One.Now,here is something to think about.Though I used the ACA rox-207,I have perfect performance,however,My little electro-genius friend suggests the NGK part may be a tad better due to the louve` design rather than the perforated of the ACA.The reason? Air speed.Not only do turbo cars produce more heat but also more exhaust speed.This may over-whelm the ACA as that gas is hitting it more directly.Personally,I think this may only apply to the 250kw brigade rather than slightly modded cars.I have ordered one and will see if there is any difference. Yes Bazz.the sensor does have a role to play in all areas of management.No you don`t have to thrash your car,it will learn as you drive.Remember,AFM measures going in,O2 sensor measures going out.We will call it closed loop.
  4. hi bazz, I also had this problem and I think you should read the post on o2 sensors.There are 17 pages of it so far and Iam about to make it 18.
  5. Sounds like crack in rubber intercooler connectors at inner guard.Remove air box and actually take the connectors off the car to see just how little the crack could be to cause all your beautiful boost to escape.30 seconds with a boost gauge would show you if car is reaching full boost.
  6. Hey Guys, Never assume the worst when it comes to misses or stutters.Always check the basics first. 1.Clean coils and check for cracks.Really check.Take coil cover off and look at night while reving engine. 2.Remove filter box and intercooler 90 deg. bends going through inner guard.Boost leaks will give same problem but usually in lower rev range.So look for cracks in rubber. 3.Anybody using a unichip will eventually find out the crank angle sensor does not like to share it`s signal for to long before it will develope a miss.It can also happen to non chipped cars to. 4.Check all vaccume lines against another car if your car has had a mechanic working on it.Check all wiring to.To the mechanics that are indeed professional I apologise.To all you other pretenders, go have alook at Croydon Motorsport Developement just for one day.
  7. HI Ben, You might want to get those tyres first thats for sure.Do not do disks without pads to.Try bendix advance for every day driving or ultimates for track days.Beware, ultimates wear quickly but stop you every time and they are cheap.Window tinting will be ok under warranty.For the moment I doubt you will need a piggy back as you have yet to explore electronic boost control.12lb of boost will give you a woody, trust me.Contact gR33dy when your ready, he may be able to help. I`m confused,you want a GTR but you buy an auto,hmmm...... Honestly,two of everything will cost you dearly.Have you ever changed a GTR gear box?Exxxxxxxpensive.They are great cars,don`t get me wrong,but for the every day street driver you should appreciate what you have.Be honest,after you spend 30-40 thou` on your GTR will you really use it the way it is meant to be used?Personally I would rather have a nicely modded GTST and not cry like a baby when I blow it up.(if).99% of the time you will be in the traffic with a nice fast comfortable car laughing at guys like me in stiffly suspended heavy clutched manuals.
  8. Hey Ben, Welcome to pleasure and pain of skyline ownership.I currently own a R33GTST.Being a little older than most I know there is only one way to do it.......Do it right the first time.An intercooler is the first thing you need as every mod you do after that will be maximized by this one change.There are plenty of good ones out there right now for around $6oo.You will be amazed at the extra torque and general crisp feel to the car.Got some good news for you,it is possible to have a quiet exhaust and have a 3" system.No secret, simply pop down to parts importer and get a cat back exhaust with the biggest mufler and resonator.Second hand about $6oo.Then go to mufler shop and add a hotdog and hey presto! Super quiet.The rattle? Put someone in the passenger seat. If rattle stops, you have the dredded skyline rattling seat.If so, then keep an inflatable babe in the glovebox and use her when needed.Could also be the plastic trim covering the seatbelt.Sometimes not replaced properly when complyancing.Be careful about going to big with tyres as steering will feel vague on direction changes.Also back end will float around a little.Suggest 205 front and 215 rear.Oh and by the way, boost will increase with new zorst and cooler.
  9. Hi Paul, Also can you get me good price on 300ZX airflow meter and plug for R33 GTST. Thanks Again, Gary.
  10. Hi Paul, Could you get me a good price on a PROFEC B SPEC 2 boost controller. Thanks, Gary
  11. Hi Paul, Had trouble getting to your bank because of work.Is there any way I could drop the cash off to you tonight or tomorrow.Driving isn"t a problem if not to far away like Dubbo or something.Give me a call. Skylinecouple.
  12. HI gR33ddy, Do you have any more power fc left for GTSt R33? I am very interested in buying. Thanks, Gary. If anyone else is keen for a power fc in this group buy, then please let me know. Final payment date is the 10/09 so you have till then to join in and pay up.
