Hey people,

I’ve just moved to Brisbane from up north, new job (network engineer) in Murarrie and a new car, Skyline R33 GST-T (5th car). I got it from gold star autos (hopefully it’s not dodgy) Anyways, I’m a pretty keen driver, when I get bored, I go driving around randomly. I’m still getting use to it, since my last car was a Hilux surf.

At the moment my R33 is pretty stock, apparently it has some GTR options, 17inch wheels and a exhaust that doesn’t wake the neighbors.

I have done some researching and I think the first thing ill do to it is throw on a FMIC. BUT, there are 100’s of crazy named brands out there, so I have no idea on which kit to get.

Well, I’m keen to go for a cruise any time. So pm me if u are bored. I live in red hill at the moment, moving to kangaroo point next weekend.

Kev

Hi mate welcome, probly see you around cruising.

Good luck with the future mods.

I hope you have a lock up garage for the 33, as they are very popular with the criminal element around Brisbane and Gold coast.

That is an awesome grill! I tried to find one for my 33 but had to settle for a GTR grill instead. Oh and welcome

Mine has the same with NISMO in it. Came with it from japan so I dont know where one would track one down. It wasnt painted though when I got it, just matt black plastic.

I think it looks a load better than the standard 3 bar one anyway,

      Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery

      The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.

      Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.

      In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
