  1. vht vynle dye make sure its the dye works best on seats
  2. the arrows show where there is more hidden oil the red shows where the non hidden oil is even if you cant see it clearly in the pic
  3. haha nah it doesnt but i dont reckon its water its certainly not red at all in any relation im starting to think its an oil from around the turbo area
  4. what are symptons of the oil coming from the turbo or the powersteering what should be happning to the car?
  5. i went for a 2-3 hours cruze last night through the hills so it would make sence for it to come loose it does look like alot of the fluid is on the steering also it seems the liquid is mainly around the left of the car btw is that a major thing if the clamp comes undone
  6. i just installed my boost gauge and went to go take my car for a drive and see what my boost controller is set when its at hi and low setting it seems its 10psi and then 12 psi as i pulled into the drive way i noticed some dark spots on the ground turned out its coming from the skyline iv taken a picture of where the leak is coming from but it is night time so its not the bst pic i am worried to drive the car any more as it seems something just exploded under there ( the car does drive fine though) the liquied is sort or browny black on the car itself but on the ground its clean with small black bits in there, doesnt smell like petrol or water any ideas guys?? as i want to be driving again knowing im safe
  7. i have just installed my boost gauge i put the T for the pressure close to my boost controller is this ok or should it be closer to where ever it connects up to also its a stock r33 series 2 with the boost set at stcok boost so at idle it reads -18 is this ok? if i rev it up to 4500 it goes to 0
  8. yeah manily the car seems to not like reving it was so bad in my mates EA it wouldnt rev past 3500rpm bashed out the cat and perfect ( he also baught it for 500bucks as the person who sold it dident know what was wrong with it)
  9. looks good thought of doing any little things here and there to make it just that bit better, like cleaning front lights( getting rid of yellow ) .painting the black plastics all of the car making them look new again dash LED's
  10. so my r33 series 2 with gready profec spec 2 b with fmic, cat back 3inch can handle 14psi?? what about series 1's
  11. i was taking a look under my car today as i was hoping to get a dump pipe and high flow cat fitted to my car it seems that the dump pipe which is on there is just as large as my custom cat back exhuast which is in between 3inch-3.5inch im not to sure honestly but its a big bloody pipe thats for sure does any body know how big they noramly are stock as i have no idea???? also getting some prices for aftermarket ones fitted getting prices like 950 the cheapest so far is 750 with high flow cat fitted seems to expensive for a bloody pipe with two bends in it.
  12. Wat would i need to make it fit my stock r33 s2?? Is the turbo to big to have in old position?
  13. anything non stock like coils or 3inch dump pipe or all just stock?
  14. figured you couldent pm back once we get this vectra sold il let you know
  15. photos of how the car looked when i got it
  16. i had some trouble painting my door trims black, i was told to use VHT VYNLE DYE and its shit house, pachy black everywhere, will have to buy some normal vynle paint and go over it again i did how ever put in some LED's into my cluster which il put up some pics altho its hard to decided what color i like. might even consider buying one of those professionaly done led clusters which seemed to have turned out much better than mine i have also painted the plastic which restes under the wiper's on the bonnet, which has come up fantastic looking new my dash has now been panted back to origional black and my cluster is now a nice dark red ( i love my black and red themes as you can see from my ford http://s972.photobucket.com/home/paulos92) cleaned up my front lights as they were yellow although im using an iphone to take the photos so you can see any diffrence between dirty and clean although i have noticed at night with my lights on there are massive scratchs which look to be on the inside night shade on my side indicators( almost black ) soon to night shade my front indicators, they look like lego to me i have painted the front dimister red now which is a nice touch i have plans to get my car a after market dump pipe and highflow cat and hoepfully get my boost controller worked out as i have no idea what im doing but apparently i can get my car up to 14psi because its the series 2 whether or not this is true im uncertain. pics will go up tomro to show more bits that need changing on the car and bits i have already done cheers for any ideas
  17. i have painted my door trim on my falcon before it turned out ok not scratching off but after one year it faded where my arm would rest i was told from the guys on fordmods that vht vynle dye was very good i have sprayed my skyline door trim and its come up very very patchy ( i used prepsolve to get rid of dust etc) does this just take like overnight to get rid of patchyness or wtf??? what have other people used to paint there door trim?
  18. can seem to take it off is there screws or clips holding it in???
  19. i have gone out and got an r33 gtst series 2 1997 with 127km's on it for 8700bucks , comes with catback and profec 2 b gready turbo timer and boost controler im pretty damn happy with it at that price as it was hard to find even medium condition r33 series 1's for that price i have come up with a list that i hope will expand of things i want to do to my car, things which are small but add to the awsomness -brake light LED that says skyline -chasing LED's for tail lights -make custom ipod dock -LED parker lights or LED strip at the bottom like those on R8 -LED manual shift that changes from green to red for perfect changes -tint windows -custom air intake -larger bonnet over hang over the lights to give a more aggresive look -LED cluster lights -roof lining black -dash color back to black -change where the boost and turbo timer sit -put my 15inch alpine sub into boot -paint rims -change speakers -clean fabric on door trim or just paint it -color front dimister -cut and polish around the insides of doors and boot, bonnet -spray paint brake calipers the things which need to be fixed -clean cannon -exhaust is scraping -slight back window leak -make the door seals clean and black -vaccum -door trim rattle -parcel shelf carpet needs to be cut for speakers -engine tick( possibly just something minor) -steering wheel sqeak( almost never happens ) -front lights are yellowing -tail light indicator has condensation soon i will be looking at increasing the performance by spending 900bucks or so getting high flow cat and dump pipe dont reckon i can afford nismo ecu tune just yet down the track i want to get the wide body kit for my r33 but keep it clean with out all of the crap that makes it look ricey if any one actualy reads this it would be good to here some feed back on any ideas, or ways of doing things i have listed here are some pictures
