I have read posts and topics by the mafia before and have found his info to be very useful. If you dont know what im talking about have a look at the in depth thread on his turbo swap. I think alot of you are quick to bite on statements etc that are said without sitting down and thinking out your replys. My thoughts are everyone knows that the standard ecu on the 33 is probably the most retarded ecu ever and to get decent power figures out of your car it is an important modification that is as common as an intercooler upgrade these days. As many have stated dynos are a tuning tool to test the increases/decreases in power from the mods you have purchased and to see if the money was spent wisely. I think everyone can agree that the power figures given shouldnt be taken as gospel. Cheers Chris

I have a SAFC which I guess is similar and I first mounted it in replace of the ash tray but couldnt really see it so Imounted it up in the aircon vent. Ill see if I can post up a pic for you. Cheers Chris

They do come in the 34GTt and it does pop up and it looks nothing like the 34gtr one. Its used as a tv and controls for the stereo. My friends parents have one in there turbo 34 in replace of the 3 gauges. It was a factory option from nissan and im sure they would be cheaper to buy then the 34 GTR version. Cheers Chris

And R31's come with an RB30E single cam not DE unless you have put a twin cam head on it. Cheers Chris

If your worried about it go to a 2nd hand parts place and pick yourself up one. Two of my friends are running with out there heat shield and havent come across any problems. 1 is a 33 and the other a Laurel. Chris

If he were running the factory computer wouldnt it hit a fuel cut at that boost level?

Haha I will mate. You might of seen mine Silver series 2 33 round the traps too. Ill keep my eye out. Chris

Yeah im pretty sure ive seen this around reddy too from time to time. Ill have to come say hi next time I see you. Chris

I might be keen just got my car back together and are looking to cruise somewhere tonight. Cheers Chris

No its not a Vspec its just the diff out of a GTR Vspec. Cheers Chris

Some Gtst's came with the vspec diff you are very lucky as they are a rare option. The A-LSD light in the tacho it only comes on if there is a problem. The ECU for the ALSD is in the boot. Does it stay on always or just come on now and then? Chris

Yeah sonic silver is a nice colour I have it on mine! Cheers Chris

I thought skyline turbos were bigger than T25's??? what exactly are they T3?

Welcome to you too mate! Im sure you will find loads of information on here enjoy your stay! Cheers Chris P.S. Hopefully we will have a good go against Italy too! Ohh and post up pics of your car I love 33 GTRS!

Yeah If the car is the same in your avatar im pretty sure it was you. I was with a Black 33 a 32 GTR and mine a silver series 2 R33. You should of come and said hi or maybe I should of I didnt notice till Isaw your sticker when you were at the lights Sorry dude Chris

Nice I love the series 3 GTR's if Iwere to get one it would be that car in the same colour. Is that sonic silver? Chris

Got mine done and all is good nice new exedy clutch!

For limited mods as you have stated id go the SAFC a power FC would be overkill. If you decide to change things more in the future sell the SAFC and buy a power FC. Chris

Hi, Just wondering who the guy was in a gun metal grey R33 which looked to be a series 1.5 parked at the BP near the royal brisbane last night? He had a SAU sticker on his back, side window and I was just curious as to who it was. Cheers Chris

There is a DIY on how to install and setup the basics in the DIY section. If not PM predator he will help you out. 4-4 is what I think I have mine set at and second screen appears to be right, 6cylinder and throttle position up. If I had my car here id go out and check my settings for you as mine hasnt been tuned as yet. Cheers Chris

I think you limited to piggyback computers with an auto box such as a SAFC. But There was a guy on here that was running a powerfc in his r34 auto. Cant remember his name though.. Cheers Chris

Well mine went in this morning so I will let you know how it goes.

You machine the flywheel and do the rear main seal?

im led to believe that there not the same.

Im about to get mine down tomorrow. Mines a 33 gtst ill let you know what it costs me. I just bought a exedy heavy duty organic off a group buy here for about $350 I have budget around $400 to put it in I hope its not more. Chris
