Anyone jsut wondered if anyone is going? I would but have to stocktake at work, spewing!! To people that havent been you should go, its massive, One guy stocks all import parts which is good, good prices to, was going to buy a full set of Enkei rims for like $1300 but were off a 32 GTR so wrong offset. So ending up buying a set of stockies with ok tyres for $100!!

Last year on the road opposite the airport was a white R33 GTR, looked hot. A Stagea in the parking lot along with heaps of other imports, and inside were a few imports, the hottest looking 32 4 door Ive seen, for sale, mmmm.

Anyway, sucks I cant go just wanting to make sure you guys know its on!!!

Cheers.

Daz.

Last time i went the the swap meet i was like 11 years old with my dad. And it was fairly boring. Might have to check it out again some time. Its normally a fairly big day with lots of walking.

KamikazeR33 Im from Warrnambool, down on the coast, Ballarat is only around 2 hours from me. Yes its a huge place to walk around but well worth it, Ive lost count how many times Ive gone, but still remember looking for different parts. It was really wierd going and looking for Skyline/Import stuff the first time! Plenty of bogans go though!

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
