  1. I'd defintely be keen. Never been down before, and would rather not go to a day where the track is packed (if thats possible, I doubt it!!) I'll be waiting for new year though, I don't imagine a stock intercooler likes the heat down there at the moment
  2. Yes at WSID, and I was speaking to the owner at the time, and mentioned how it'd spotted him on cmberland highway a few days earlier
  3. Are you 100% that he didn't mean the 0 - 100km/hr sprint was only doing using the first two gears? ie first and second only. Because I'd be suprised if starting in 2nd is beneficial, and more importantly you'd want a decent clutch to hold up to redline 2nd gear launches. Let alone the res of the drive train... Although you sound rather confident in what he said, and if you're correct, then that's pretty cool
  4. Unique Auto Sports stock it as well.
  5. Awesome car... perfect condition, great mods that aren't stressing the car, very reliable (all servicing done), and goes well Good luck with the sale mate! Will you throw in a set of steak knifes?
  6. I was stoked, finally spotted!!!! I figured it must have been you... damn there was a lot of traffic eh!!! Your car is looking nice
  7. Yeah, they wouldn't notice that monster tacho at all
  8. I have already told you before, that red cable is where the Autobahn idiots have decided to tap into your boost lines for your boost guage you got fitted Have you removed the standard solenoid out of the loop yet??? I can't watch that movie. Here's a test, disconnect that red tube and go see if you're boost guage still works..
  9. Where abouts can I order a Pipercross filter from? Preferably online I think I just have the stock filter. The air filter is PINK, is that the standard one on a R33? cheers, Tommo.
  10. Unique Auto Sports stock them.
  11. Have the fuel pressure tested I found my RB25DET to be running lean and it was due to a dying fuel pump... Replaced it with a Walbro one and it was great after.
  12. I spotted three R33s in the Woy Woy area around 11am this morning. One of them waved at least
  13. With the new STi, they have turned down the boost to compensate for the extra capacity. scathing, I agree totally. Nothing frustrates me more than people that pull up next to a modified car they have just seen boot it, and say "hey what boost you running". Ask what turbo someone us running before what boost they are running !!
  14. Yeah it's defintely an old video
  15. Well done to Australia.. and on a lighter note:
  16. It's Darlington Park, QLD... and yeah, it's a Corolla. I feel sorry for the guy, he's taken it to the track to try and learn more, and obviously has made a mistake and then panicked. It's very easy for easy to see exactly what he did wrong from the comfort of our computer chairs (or couches if you've got wireless ), but in the moment, i'm sure some of us when learning to drive could have made the same mistakes, especially if we panicked. Cheers, Tommo.
  17. I'm also defintely interested (but due to weird working hours, can't commit 100% until I have a date)
  18. Damn, looks nice, gotta love the GT2535 sticker!!
  19. I'll be following this thread to hear about peoples experiences before I fill up with the stuff. I've got a stock ECU with a couple of mods, so it runs rich as anyway.... http://www-static.shell.com/static/au-en/d...ite_extreme.pdf It states it in there.
  20. Kinda a hard question to answer. You can just make sure your tyres are in good coniditon, and all your fluids have been changed recently. Drags aren't really THAT hard on a stockish car (compared to track work), so normally you shouldn't have to do much at all. Depending on what kinda car you drive, of course
  21. Some imports do (mine did)
  22. Yeah, that's Sasha (Japboyz). You'll find his workshop no longer exists, as he got out of the game. Between him and Chris (the MINES R34 owner, and the guy that imports most of Autostyles cars), they have some damn nice stuff... The Escorts are sold as well... I regret to say that dog is no longer - got run over by a car
  23. I expected to get lots of cop attention in my 33 but haven't been pulled over once in 18,000kms of ownership.
