  1. Caminperth, I had the same thing happen to me when I had my car at about 13psi while mucking around. It was fine on the dyno but as soon as it was on the road it would start to have the problem you described. The guy told me that it would be even worse on a colder day due to the fact that there was too much air getting into the engine and the air/fuel ratios where not adjusting correctly on my stock ecu. A SAFC would probably fix your problem, I have a simple Pivot air/fuel meter (1 universal setting) and adjusted it to make it a little bit leaner and it has fixed the problem for me. I am no mechanic/tuner so it is just a suggestion Daniel
  2. I have a K & N Filter in my R33 and as mentioned it is the same as the VN-VS Commodore one. The product code to look for is 33-2031-2. I replaced my HKS pod for the stock airbox and K & N panel, and I find it just as good if not better as I never had a CAI and was sucking in hot air. Daniel
  3. I have my receipt in front of me for my Bilstein shocks, the codes are; B46 1916 (rear) B46 1873 (front) Daniel
  4. Read this; http://auto.howstuffworks.com/framed.htm?p...96/pr121096.htm ABS is only as good as the driver, I wouldn't stress about not having it. Daniel
  5. GT25-S13, ! have a white R33 and don't live in Iluka, so no that's not me The reason I sold the 200sx is it was a little too small for me, I am 6 foot and it had a sunroof, very cramped!! Very good cars though, look cool, better than the new S15 in my opinion. I have attached a pic of my old baby Daniel
  6. I'm 25 now, but I was 23 when I had the 200sx, I am with RAC now for the Skyline, but was with SGIO for the 200sx. That probably won't help you as you don't have those companies over there Daniel
  7. There is not much of a price difference in insuring a 200sx from a Skyline (I used to have an S14a) it's just easier to get it. I was paying about $1100 a year for it in Perth with 60% NCB, I am paying about the same for the Skyline now. Daniel
  8. I had Bilsteins and King Springs installed into my car (R33 GTST)about 6 months ago with no problems sourcing the parts in WA. Cost me just over $1300, made a huge difference to handling, but the ride comfort is about the same, so it might not help too much with the bumps in the road, unless of course your shocks are completely stuffed. Daniel
  9. I am a Network/Server Administrator at DOLA, and I agree with Brett, he is a bludger Daniel
  10. I had a similar problem a while ago, but not so severe. In the end it turned out to be the TPS (Throttle Position Sensor), it made the car do some funny things while driving and idling, we just took it off cleaned it and reconnected it, it fixed up the problem!! Daniel
  11. Here's a pic of my car, this was before the new suspension though, I will try and get an after pic soon. Daniel
  12. Again, I would say Wilkinson, I recently had some Bilstein Shocks installed all round and matching King Springs, made a huge difference to handling, cost me $1290 installed. Daniel
  13. Nah, they wanted to do it on the same day I called, but I delayed it until the next day!! Daniel
  14. I had mine replaced last year for my R33, wasn't a problem at all, got it through my insurance (1 free windscreen replacement a year), it was installed by Instant Windscreens. Daniel
  15. Fair enough, however I don't believe some of the stuff in the papers nowadays as they are sometimes as bad as the muck-racking shows half the time (ie. A Current Affair, 60 minutes) But if you did actually go to the BP site, it does state that BP Ultimate meets strict greenhouse guidelines which are a worldwide standard and is the only fuel in Australia to do so. So basically it is clean and of decent octane levels!! Daniel
  16. Go here; http://www.bp.com.au/products/fuels/bp_ult...e.asp?menuid=ec The Ultimate 98 fuel refined in Kwinana (WA) is one of the cleanest and best fuels produced in the world, the report you read would most likely be an average of all other regular unleaded fuels!!! Daniel
  17. RAC insure me too, I am 24, insuring the car for $26,000, 55% NCB (Plus Protection) = $1000 p/a Daniel
  18. When I bought my car it only had an immobilisor, but it was upgradeable to a full alarm system. I did this soon after and there was another option to have the alarm chip replaced with a Turbo Timer considerator. So when the timer is counting down I set the alarm and leave it and when the timer finishes the alarm activates properly. Daniel
  19. I was debadged last year and bought a new one from just jap, they were a little cheaper then though!!! To fit the new one you have to unclip some of the boot lid lining around where the lock is and it is a simple case of pulling a long metal clip from the back of the badge, you will know what I mean when you see it. At first it doesn't feel like it will come of, but after a bit of jiggling it will and the lock will just come out. I tried to swap the lock barrel of the old one with the new one, but it wouldn't have it, so I have 2 keys now, but who cares!! Daniel
  20. I would have assumed that my car would have been licensed with the POD filter after it was brought into Australia. It was already installed at the dealership when first purchased, mine is a HKS item. Of course they could have swapped an OEM item in when going over the pits!!! Where can you get an engineers report from in WA anyway? Daniel
