    Tuning Apexi Power Fc In Brissy

    in Forced Induction Performance

    Posted

    Hi

    Just need to know of the best guys in brisbane to take my car to get it tuned properly. Every one i go to tells me they just need the hand controller. But i know for a fact to get the best tune possible you need the apexi laptop software. Does anyone know who some of the garages in brisbane are that have this software so i can get a good solid tune out of my car

    cheers

    All These Evo 3 In J-spec.....

    in Importing Vehicles

    Posted

    you can not import an evo III for road use at all , they are not on the sevs list . I assume they fail because they are to close to the CC GSR turbo 4wd lancer misti brought in to australia

    there used to be a loophole in victory to let you bring one in and replace a written off domestic GSR lancer with it but that has been closed

    you can bring in a race only one if you have or can find someone with a cams license and then you can transfer all the running gear to a CC gsr lancer , the car is virtually identical to the evo III when you are done .

    its not that difficult but domestically delivered gsrs are getting rarer and expensive so the total cost would probably almost equal an evo VI which you can bring in anyway

    wonder when is the 15 year rule kick in for these cars.......or is that stoped now.....

    damn....the shit they make us go though to get a car........

    Xenon Hid Lights Conversion For R32

    in Tutorials / DIY / FAQ

    Posted

    That is correct, there is a solenoid which operates and moves the shield out of the way giving the full xenon lamp unshielded for full beam! :P

    No, I have 4 x Bi-Xenon projectors, as in all 4 on for lo and hi beam!

    *** Ignore the sidelights, that was just a trial fit! ***

    I chose the Audi units because they are Bi-Xenon and because they are made by Hella and therefore fit most headlight units, the BMW ones don't fit in the R33 headlight units (Bi-Xenons that is). As for the Honda units, I don't know to be honest, it wasn't an option available to me at the time.

    heard about abbey motorsport do some wicked GTR............is you one making 550 plus HP......ohhh....mad ass lights tooo

    My Gtr

    in RB Series - R31, R32, R33, R34 (1986-2002)

    Posted

    Kushil - My Series II only had POD (enclosed, cold air feed and heat shielding foam) Turbo back exhaust and the factory dual stage boost bypassed so it would run 7psi all the time. At a guess, the car would've made 140-145rwkw's? It had Bilstien Shocks, King Springs, 265 rubber (rears 235 front) and a strut brace so it was fun to drive having come from an NA FWD Celica. The R makes my Series II feel like a stock NA silvia. The power and handling is not comparable. I friend of mine who drives a fairly modded 185awkw WRX explained that he didn't want to race me on the strip or track after going for a ride in it.

    I was under the impression that moving into a GTR would just be a heavier, slightly better handling and more powerful Skyline but the difference between the two cars is much bigger than that. Drive one and you'll understand better, good luck on your purchase!

    NB: To be fair, the R has more mods than my last car by the way.

    Bugger.......ya...i got the same sort of mods in my GTST...no cold air shilelding though....and still on factory boost...probably a bit slower than you car.......

    thankx for the info..

    NB: To be fair, the R has more mods than my last car by the way. I am preety sure it has ???....

    Posted

    that tread really helps.......i will probably go with 235/45R17 front and then 255/40/r17 back,if they fit my wheels, if not probably 235 all rounds.......

    front ones getting mazzis - got number 3 on wheels tyre comparison (149 a piece on bob jane) and used branded tyres for the rear. can not afford 255 brand new cos they very expensive..........

    Hi Guys,

    Thanks for the replies so far.

    Just wanted to add RE Kushil Abeysinghe

    The car has a stereo in it at the moment, with an MP3 deck and sub, the stereo will be removed and replaced with the stereo it came with which isnt bad but doesn't do MP3's and i'll be leaving the wiring in for the amp's etc.

    Its also had its timing belt changed at the 100k service

    Cheers

    Adam :P

    better start at 18K...mate and if someone is looking for a very good condition R33 S2, where all the problem being sorted out in AUS...well....then he will pay

    The clutch was 100% ok when i gave them the car.......but no point arguring as i can not prov my point.... (Note your KM when y give the car, let them know that !!!)

    just use TNT vehicle logistics.......i didn't use it cos it a BIT more.....but paid for my mistake :)

    so free advice people....

    TNT is by far the most reputable company i could find when i called around in mel, Everyone else :P well.....you know what happen to me !!!!

    PS: I am not assuming...all other car carriers take cars for joy rides by the way...so dont bag me...
