Gav,

I'd say the numbers would be higher for the R32 and R33.

I mean You, Rhino, GTRKen, Micko, VspecII, ND4SPD, Fabian have 32's, and that's just on this forum.... ;)

I have an R33, I know of another Purple one, a silver one with VSPEC plates, there is big red and lumpy's race car at CRed, there is a black one that hangs around Vic Park..

But you very rarely see them advertised for sale, I can't remember the last time I saw one in the paper...

On another note, if anyone is looking at a white R33 GTR at a caryard in Cannington, or a 97 one from a place in Maddington pm me, you might be interested with the info I have....

There are not enough GTR's, but most of us can't afford them. I think the number would surprise you, I see at least a couple new ones each week, so I think the number of R32 and R33's is more like triple those figures.

Gtrken alone has brought in 3 recently.

See'ya:burnout:

id say theres a few more gav prb say around 50+ 32's

70+ 33's

and I can only think of 7 34's

id think goind around the traps and id say theres a heap more 33's around on perth roads than 32's but hey thats me

I would like to see a heap more out on the cruises and maybe on the late night drag scene (especially when my mods will be done soon) yes unfortunately there quite expensive to buy even to repair and insure

but R's are are a lot of fun. If driven how there meant to be THRASHN IT

Gav, Vspec32, Fabian,

There is a cruise on this sunday (23rd) down to Dandelup dam near mandurah. Looks like a big turnout, check the events for full details. Meet at Carousel at 10am and leave from there... Would be nice to have half a dozen GTR's in the field for a change...

Fabian,

Yeah dude I still work there. Don't take the R there that much as I'm living in East Perth and the girlfriends car is cheaper to run...

Sounds like the R will have a lot more balls once it's back together. You'll have to let me know what you are doing, I'm still exploring my options in regards to mods.. PM me if you'd prefer..

Cheers

Thanks for letting us know. Unfortunately I won't be able to make it to this one. After driving down to Margarets last weekend, we're pretty much over driving distances for a little bit - especially with the amount of fuel that the 'R goes through. Will keep an eye on the events section for the next one. BTW, should able to keep up soon if I manage to get the Apexi setup I'm wanting (PFC, HC & BC).

Cheers

Brendan

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
