  1. i think i saw this website mentioned on here by some one so i checked it out. they seem to have very good prices. in one instance its almost 200 bux less than the manufacturer's reccommended. seems too good to be true. is there a catch? maybe they have units intended for other countries (and associated radio freqs?) they have listings for both the poineer DEH-P5850MP and the DEH-P5850MPH. i googled the 2nd one and its listed under pioneer's singapore site but not the aussie one. its also $60 bux more. whats the go? another thing. if you have had bad experiences please pm me the details instead of posting the whole thing in here. we can keep the mods happy that way i think thanks guys
  2. insu...mate...just wow. i had no idea just how much it was hunting until i did the d.i.y. got it sitting at around 900-950rpm and went for a drive. its so smooth and theres no vibration anymore. it revs cleaner too. is that meant to change? i dunno if its just me but it seems like its almost fixed a flat spot that i had at bout 2500rpm. either way im happy. only one issue though. my ecu doesnt seem to have an adjustment screw. the car is a s1 r33 built in May '95. is it possible i have the s2 ecu? is the s2 ecu different to the s1? coz i looked at the back of the unit, and while it has similar holes to the one in the picture posted earlier it doesnt have a screw. i took off the transparent plastic film thing and had a good look around with a torch. no screw. what gives? again dude thanks for the write up. it works and works well. its given me some more confidence in doing stuff to my car myself.

  4. oops wrong date. wanted the coming thursday but read the calendar wrong. the 11th it is. 1st post edited accordingly
  5. not a member yet so thats why i posted in here. will be soon though..i hope. lol. ok sounds like thursday night has also got a few supporters. how bout thursady night we meet at the top of the car park at say 7.30. just to check out each other's rides and have a chat. we can decide how many of us wanna stay and maybe get food or whatever at the meet. y dont we head over to the sofias on burwood highway after? they have large windows facing their car park. should solve the security prob. dunno how many people want dinner versus just coffee though. i know i'll be hungry No. if you dont have a black series one r33 made in may 1995 that has had no mods done to it (yet) and has a large scratch on the drivers side door then you cant come. sorry kidding! everybody's welcome dude
  6. yeah so does my mum's corolla. the camry doesnt though which i find odd seeing as its a 2006 model
  7. man that has gotta suck. good luck with the next attempt tho. the date is by no means fixed on the 13th. i just suggested it to check response. let us know when you wanna have it and we'll see if its good for everyone. is having it mid week not a good idea for people? i know some of us work late shifts, thats y i asking. i dont wanna do it the saturday after cos there is the sprint meet thing on that day. meaning less ppl will be able to come to both
  8. ok i was just reading sillylankan's thread and it seems that there is some interest in a meet in the glenny area. i havent been on a sau cruise/meet as yet and i cbf waiting 4 someone else to organise so here you go. watchya'll think? EDIT: new location what: SAU meet and greet, all forum members and friends welcome where: Glenny train station/HappyCup car park. either drive down to sofias for dinner or just do the CCW thang afterwards when: 7.30pm, thursday the 11th of jan
  9. haha rich maha...my uncle owns dat place. opened a new store on collins st recently too. too oily for my liking any way im in for the meet if its happening. btw emsta how did u know his car was an auto? Edit: see link for meet EOIs thread
  10. oh damn is that what that does? i have been wondering ever since i got the car. i thought it was some kinda superboost mode thing like in men in black. bin too afraid to touch it so far...dont have any convienient tunnels that i can drive on the ceiling of around my area.
  11. hey guys. just wondering something. being an all or nothing kinda guy , i usually have my windows either fully up or fully down. now i noticed in the r33, the driver side window controls both windows. however only the driver's window is fully automated (ie. u press it and it winds down fully). now being lazy i find it a pain to have to hold down the passenger window button when driving, especially when eating at the same time or otherwise occupied. soo to get to the point, is it possible to swap the passenger control switch with a drivers type one and have both auto or is it more complicated than that.

    +1 for ssv. these guys are exrtemely helpful. they put up with my indecisiveness for a month or two and when they couldnt find what i was looking for in aus they extended the search to japan. needless to say they were sucessful, coz im riding around in the car they imported for me. and i very happy with it. i dunno the exact address of the place but they are on the corner of princess highway and huntingdale rd. opposite the nissan dealership
  13. easy. just edit the first post of the topic (if you started it). when it asks for quick edit or full edit choose full. you should see fields for both the title and description where you can edit them
  14. thanx for the quik reply. will do search found! http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...mp;hl=AAC+valve had a read, will try this asap. meanwhile, its not gonna cause any lasting damage right now is it?
  15. hey guys i have r33 s1 gtst auto and up till now i have been happy with its performance and its been running quite smoothly. but recently i have noticed that when im stopped at the lights or the car is in park, the tacho needle moves up and down ever so slightly and sometimes the car gives a gentle shudder. its like the vibrations build up to a point and then fade. right now its very mild and i can just feel it. but its strong enough to show clearly when i look in my mirrors. and another thing, which may or may not be unrelated, today i heard a fast ticking noise coming from under the hood. opened it up and it seems to be coming from what i think is the fuel rail from mainly one of the mushroom looking things (injectors??) attatched to it. is this a major problem? this is my first car and i am almost completely clueless as to what could be the problem. so please help out if you can. thanks niroj
  16. something to do with the seat belt? i dunno only guessin
  17. no problem dude, i need the practice
  18. here u go, a beginner's chop (just got fotoshop). enjoy
  19. nah mate i didnt. to be honest all i really wanted to do was get myself out of there so i could vent somewhere private. plus im not really interested in "getting him" back, just wanna get my baby fixed up. as requested: the bit i marked in red shows the extent of the dent. and it not a simple dent eitha, its kinda a few merged into 1. but still it doesnt look as bad now as it did b4. lol maybe a good solid buff is in order? foznice - still confused? hehe guys i wanna thank u for the replies . this was just a venting session for me. didnt really expect the support
  20. Omurru our evil plan seems to be workin at last.....MUAHAHAHA sorry just had a few drinks so im a little 'happy'. yeah i noticed the similarity b4. i have better pics of my car just cbf changing yet. might get round to it. damage pics will be up in a few
  21. man im really fumed. ive had my car back for barely a few weeks and already its bin damaged. i cant belive the stupidity of the guy. happened in a car park, fairly busy, end of the day, etc etc. just got food for me and my bro so i was on the way home. so just following like 3 other cars down the main lane of the park. just b4 theexit i c a 4wd waiting to turn into our lane out of one of the aisles. think 2 myself, its all good, i have right of way and then as i pass i see him move out of the corner of my eye. b4 i have time say wtf, f*ken BANG! right into my drivers door. look up and the idiot is sitting there wit a stupid 'apologetic' grin on his face. got out and hes scratched and dented my door all to shit while his bumper has nothing more than my paint on it. his excuse? "i didnt see u, just wasnt paying attention". bullshit! you saw the other cars in front of me u had to have seen me. moron. i was able to restrain myself though and kept these thoughts to myself, acted civil, got his details and gtfo of there. on the way home though was just cruisin along in the slow lane trying not to drive stupid (which i tend to do when pissed). glance in the mirror and its completely filled wit another monkey in a 4wd. the right lane is free but this fool decides to sit right on my ass for a couple of kays. just as we're reaching a set of lights he then decides he wants to be in front. so he switches lanes, guns it, and switches back right in front of me. had to brake hard and switch or risk more damage. i am so sick of this shit!! /rant.....woosah basti, woosah. pics soon. just needed to let it out.
  22. dude the only time my indicators ever flashed fast was when i introduced it to a safety barrier at speed. and then it was only the damaged side that did it. oddly it affected the rear one too although it wasnt damaged
  23. they'll probably recycle that too
  24. sorry..."penis fuel"???
  25. thanks ctjet. i checked them out and they are indeed very sexy. anyhoo i got tired of waitin and decided to give it a shot myself and do a couple of chops. prob is i only have ms paint and only took bout 20 mins to do both. therefore they look horrible (imo) here they r: i prefer the velvets to the apaches from this but i rekon a better chop help me decide.
