  1. sorry merli, realised today that this thursday is works AGM meeting. that means free food and piss. being the corporate slave and political puppet i am, i have to go
  2. get an oil cooler if you're going track nutz
  3. dude, come back to mine for a retune. the way you setup the avcr on the nissan is slightly different to the way its used in the subaru (which was my mistake) take "learn gear" off in all gears and all should be good.
  4. i can tune them i've had the same avcr boost controller in my wrx and my skyline and i've had zero problems with them! well, i tell a small lie after my powerfc tuner who specialises in apexi products fine tuned it in my skyline its all running sweeeet actually, i'll take photos of my settings for you and you can do it yourself. dont be shy. just dont dial in 1.5bar boost....
  5. looks good adam. with the tiptronic gearbox i think you should be reading slightly higher than manuals because of gear ratios. and i also believe auto/tiptronics have a different ecu....but dont quote me on that from memory (i'll have to dig it up) i got 154kw on the same dyno with about the same amount of mods. 1 tip - FMIC. i didnt notice any seat of the pants difference and thus that represented zero bang for dollar!!! for a street car, i think the side mount is perfect for power levels close to 200rwkw. when you do some trackwork or get a bigger turbo then i think this is where a FMIC starts to get important. spend your money on a handling pack from say whiteline. what are you after? track stuff? street?
  6. guilty, just a couple of squirts i used to see UGLY every wednesday night out at riverwood 'cause he played in the same oztag league as me! apparently the car was ugly phil's from 2day fm?
  7. okay! a bit of action tonite on the roads! lovin it....!!! firstly, R33vit: that probably wasnt me in granville this all in the last 30 mins...hahaha. spotted: yellow ER34 going down Hombebush bay drive. why didnt you play! spotted: yellow BNR34 on parrammatta rd, "GOZYLA" fantastic and thanks for the fun spotted: red Ferrari 360 MODENA, "MR 360", why didnt you play! scared of a little RB action?!?!?! i love parrammatta rd....
  8. with your only connection being "violet purple" and "heavily modified" ???
  9. you mean this one nick? http://www.pbase.com/franks/04may02_nicks_r32_gtr
  10. i bet you didnt see this one coming nick! :bahaha:
  11. just a side note, i have no financial interest in this and neither has judd. from the looks of things judd is just helping out a mate which is most honourable! now, the other point is, I am happy with the result thus far (will report back next week) but i reserve a small amount of skeptisism because i was also happy with the results i had just after c&v's and the hitman's tunes...time will tell if this tune is the real deal.
  12. funky, i'll get a picture next week as thats when im going back. seems as though you're putting in soo much effort for little gain. why not let an experienced tuner do it all for you? jnr32r, custom. remind me to send you pics geoff, cheap laptop? id say just an old ibm thinkpad. but if it aint broke dont fix it and if it works why try to keep up with the jones's? decent tuning software? i'd go as far as to say probably the best?
  13. thanks again judd for this recommendation and being there tonite!!! before this guy tuned my car, both c&v and then the hitman had a go (hand controller tuned)...i thought they both did admiral jobs - but i was very impressed with this guys tuning confidence and mechanical know how. i dont even think c&v tuned it with a wide band sensor, but just with the sensor up the exhaust : seat of the pants results are good. no dyno figures to analytically prove it, but, by the way the car feels and after experiencing all three tunes, i know which one i prefer most and i also know which one is more healthier on my knock sensor reading from my handcontroller! most impressed with how the car pulls with linear power and i dont get the same knock levels from my previous tunes. over the next week i'll be giving it a thorough testing, and he's going to revisit the tune to focus on the low end as tonite was just mid to top end (and his laptop battery went dead). was also impressed that he updated the firmware version of my powerfc with his tuning software the man at work (here obviously keying in data previously held in an sms msg ):
  14. i'm running 0W-40 mobil 1 synthetic oil in my engine is this oil too thin? asking this question because a friend who has a built up 2.2litre STi blew his engine going around a circuit and attributes this to running too thin an oil....? edit: oil is 0W-40 not 50
  15. should organise a karting day whilst you're up there? doesnt port macquarie have like the best karting tracking track in australia at raleigh???
  16. that was entertaining! thanks dunc! :) i've edited the first post to include your vid
  17. stuff the cops, this is owned by a wollongong mechanic and CRD owns a gt3!!! i should've become a grease monkey.
  18. went to huntley's hill climb today down at dapto, wollongong. spotted a yellow lamboghini gullardo, and a hacked up bnr32. the rest of the cars were clubmans, open wheelers, 1 wrx, lots of done up race car gemini's, torana's, and beetles! god damn it!

  21. stock injectors and still on 250rwkw? awesome! are the stock r33 gtst and r34 gtt injectors the same? 2535 huh .... what do you think the 2530 was good for? 230rwkw?
  22. for me, "R" is just another letter of the alphabet when i had my wrx, i had a few squirts with a black Ferrari 355 spyder off the lights and from rolling 60-70km/h starts......but this was yearsssss ago. what a h00t!!! off the line i took him by 1.5 car lengths (my wrx was far from stock), but by 80km/h he was practically infront me. i will never forget the sound of it as it screamed past and i will also never forget the amount of cheers and thumbs up i got from other motorists who witnessed it
  23. id love to see some dyno charts, especially ones overlapping your previous dyno runs what injectors and clutch are you running?
