Hi there, just a short post to introduce myself. Just picked up my first skyline last week, '94 R33 and I love it!

I will be joining the QLD SAU as soon as I can fill out the form. Look forward to seeing you out and about.

Welcome Alex :D

I recognise where you work (well the carpark) and I suggest parking in the security parking! I used to work in that same complex and heard all nasty stories about the carpark and I always parked in the security parking. For $2 a day or what ever it was, it was a small price to pay for extra security :D

i'll let someone else explain the RB20E thing but basically its got to do with the amount of posts you've made on the forums

Crap Isaac!! Alex, just go to your "My Controls" area and change it to whatever you want it to say!!

And please come to Chilleh!! You learn more about your car there than anywhere else!!

Hey Erin!! Was just wondering... My Warning level has gone up to 10% and I looked into it and someone from NSW named "Blitz" has said I made a stupid post in a thread in the for sale section about "work wheels" I have no idea what he is talking about and was wondering how I deal with this??

thanks for the advice, I just go to the gym there and thought i would snap a couple of pics after i washed her today. (Isn't it annoying how many inperfections you find when you wash a car for the first time ?!?!)

Also, I was thinking of putting the car on the dyno just to see how it goes as a starting point and also to check out a noise im hearing (there is a high pitched whistle when the turbo spools up only happens for like a second on full boost between 4000 and 5000rpm i think it is). I rang up FIST performance and they quoted $95, does anyone have any dealings with them to speak of? or anyone else to recommend?

Thats not a bad price for a power run.

Mercury motorsport are ok to deal with and they are a forums sponsor. They're over in newmarket road.

I've heard milaco is good but sorry no idea where they are. Its hard to find a good workshop cos people have different experiences, for every person that says a place is great theres one that says they'll never go back.

EDIT: mercury are a sau qld CLUB sponsor, not the forums

      Another "where do these lines and plugs go" RB25DET question

      By thatjawncrazy · Posted

      GTSboy, thank you again. i’ve been reading all the other SAU RB25 vacuum line threads and you have the utmost patience for people asking “where do my vacuum lines go”. it’s appreciated. i did also enlist a few other RB guys local to me.  i would like to run 5 to 4. turbo pressure side to wastegate actuator. i would like to run 3 to 1. power steering air valve line to intercooler outlet. (this is how it was previously). i was told 2 is the bleed port for the boost solenoid - which i’m not running - so should be capped.   anyone see any problems with that?

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.

      Blue slip

      By Stringycheese · Posted

      Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?

      Should have asked what is the car?

      Blue slip

      By PranK · Posted

      I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
