  1. Oh sorry James, I didn't think you needed it anymore after reading your update in the other thread... Here are two photos of it... The second one is better but I like the first because it shows the beautiful (although dirty) purple paint Hope that helps, Andrew.
  2. I was only going to leave it up for 2 days or so, but he pissed me off by being a gutless wonder and deleting the thread, so I might leave it for a bit longer
  3. I believe "Stacy" is a girls name, and "Stacey" is a guy's name... Stupid parents though... 'sif you'd name your baby boy Stacey...
  4. Thanks Matt, I'll send him a PM
  5. Wise words from a 20 year old kid from the UK, trying to tell an Australian Skylines Forum about one of the most famous GTRs in Australia ... and you should really take your own advice. We didn't even flame you for it, we just commented how your post came out of nowhere and didn't really pertain to the thread at all.
  6. Clicking noise??? You have a kanagroo in your dashboard mate
  7. Mario's GTR has dipped into the 8s, but we're not talking about that car... I have no idea why a video of it on the dyno was posted in this thread...

  9. I've had previous R33s done and they didn't have that problem... Sure, there was a little air around each demister line when first put on, but they evaporated out with the rest of the little bubbles within a week or so... No need to cut each line on my car...
  10. Actually that function has been removed now. You can no longer delete your own threads, and rightly so. That's the lamest thing you could ever do... "Oh no!!!! I'm getting raped and flamed from all sides!!! Oh, I'll just be a weiner and delete the thread!!! I'm so cool!!!!"
  11. Do they leak easily? I'll be running upto 1.5 bar... Will the stock BOVs be okay? Or will they be leaking causing me to stress the turbos out unnecessarily to make 1.5 bar at the plenum?
  12. Mark, I'm sure if you started a thread asking for volunteers, you'd have an line 50 people long outside your workshop Everyone wants to get rid of the standard plenum... B-Man on these forums took a standard plenum and flow tested it and the results were abysmal!! I thought there would at least be air guides/fins inside the plenum directing airflow for even distribution, but it's just hollow in there...
  13. :unlimited boost:

  15. Kept the APEXi fuel regulator on there... It was doing fine... I wasn't even stressing out the injectors... I also added the Trust Type-R BOV on there... You guys didn't deem a BOV necessary for a turbo capable of 1.8 bar boost?!??!? What was up with that?

  16. I suggest about 5000-5500rpm and slip it off the line with a little controlled wheelspin... As for lunch, I recommend a light proscuitto, pecorino and rocket salad drizzled with truffle-infused extra-virgin olive oil with a nice glass of 1981 Penfolds Members Vintage Reserve Pinot Noir to cleanse the palatte.
  17. ROFL... Adrian claimed he had done most of the work Well I bought it off Lee about 1.5 years ago, and I sold it about 2 months ago to a bloke down in Wollongong and moved onto a GTR (see avatar) I did a few more tweaks to the car before selling it, but I never got around to building the engine, so I'm afraid it left my hands running a max of 1.2 bar and making 280rwkw... Here's the spec sheet whilst I owned it: See if you can pick my additions http://www.fortheboyz.com/cars/merli.php
  18. I thought that was Mark's Civic? I saw it run a few times at EC... The entire crowd loved it... Sleepers like that are the best
  19. The plot thickens That's the engine bay of my old car you just posted mate... What do you mean "here's a pic of a car I did a while ago?" G'day, you're on the speaker with Andrew... Adrian I presume?
  20. Great stuff!!! What tyres were you using? Very impressive for a FWD... Any pics of the whole car?
  21. 131mph!!! Awesome trap speed! Very impressive Let me guess though.... 14.5 @ 131mph?
