  1. anyone ever had any work done by the touch up guys?? cause i need to get a dent removed on the front of my rear bar due to another idiot with a tow bar reversing into me.
  2. anyone in sydney have one of these??
  3. anyone have one lying around after putting on there pod?
  4. Hey all i need a standard airbox lid for my series 2 R33. If anyone has one please let me know I'll buy the whole airbox if need be.
  5. Hi there is the heat shield which uses the factory snorkel still for sale??? If so im interested but want to know something. Do I need to drill in to the chassis of the car to install or it is like a full replacement of the factory airbox and you just screw it in to the factory position.
  6. Hey ive been to a couple of tyre/wheel places to ask for wheel alignments and they told me they cant do it properly cause i have 4 wheel steering how b.s is this??
  7. Thats cool, everyone has there opinion, I just thought that upgrading the stock cooler for something more efficient would be beneficial to the longevity of the engine.
  8. Ahhh no im not pretending to be someone else. I give you points for creative thought and actually spending the time to work something like that out. Impressive............ anywayssssss yeh well fmic would be for looks mostly as they look awesome. I dont take my car out to race tracks or the drag strip so yeh i have a good idea of how i want my car to look like and perform and this set up would do nicely.
  9. At this present time yeh im pretty much wondering if it is ok to run the exhaust,fmic and panel filter comfortably and safetly most importantly on the factory computer alone . Good to see im not the only one
  10. Yeh well im definetly going to leave stock boost, im going exhaust and filter for performace and the fmic is more for safety and bling So I was hearing this set up left on the stock ecu will be fine will it without stuffing up my car?? I'll probs look into a safc later on but i would rather leave the electronic parts standard dont want to fool around too much with that stuff.
  11. BTW the stock ecu runs rich from factory the thing is where is the cut off point where the ecu can not handle it anymore.
  12. well obviously you will need one if you go boost controller,hi flow turbo and stuff. But the thing i just want to keep it simple not as hardcore. The thing is im going to go panel,fmic and exhaust with split dump. Ive searched with mixed opinions. Just wondering what is the limit of the stock ecu. I know you dont a safc or replacement ecu for a exhaust and panel if so all skylines would be doing so but i think the front mount is the final mod you can do without changing ecu. This is the perception I have gained after reading a couple of posts and this mechanic guy. Just want to know if this perception is the correct one or is there more to it.
  13. Ive got a 1997 series 2 gts-t. The mechanic told me to be on the safe side to not boost and just do the above mentioned "breathing mods" for the engine and the car will run better and less restrictive after a ecu reset is performed. So yeh this is pretty much all sweet is it??? Id boost and do more stuff but not interested in having a super road warrior like most of the skylines in here just a nice running and reasonably quick car and I am moving out soon so yeh need money for that.
  14. Hi guys, I just registered after reading through threads and I am amazed at how smart and car savvy the people in this forum are. Firstly i want to introduce myself im Justin and im in Sydney. I own a standard (only for the moment) series 2 R33. I was talking to a mechanic I know and after discussions on what i wanted out of my skyline he suggested 3 mods. These were- *3 inch turbo back exhaust *Front Mounted Intercooler *Panel replacement air filter Basically all i wanted were mods which would not make me fork out heaps of money in the end like boosting it,aftermarket ecu etc. Just a couple of smart mods which will make my car look,go and sound decent. Ohhh yeh he also told me not to get a BOV because they will mess with the air flow metre and with this set up I will get some induction noise as the front mount amplifies the induction sound from the standard air box and also the standard BOV. So yeh his a mechanic and all but this is a car that you guys know so well and for a guy like me who doesnt want some drag beast would this be a good way to go and ultimately can the standard R33 ecu the one which i have heard stories about agree with these bolt on mods?? sorry for the long post but yeh i really appreciate your opinions.
