nice car dude, dont usually go for 33's but this one is noice.. r34 ftw though.

Yea r34 gtr is when you have an extra 30k+ above what you probably paid for this sitting there in the piggy bank... I think this R33 is nice as!

EDIT : When you buy a car with YOUR OWN MONEY... not loaned... not payed for by rich mommy and daddy... thats when you have something to be proud of... and GtrVspec you have something to be proud of! :(

Sicem bud. I put up with this crap all my young life over my rides. Blood sweat and toil got me my wheels and i was darn proud of them as you obviously are.

I know now that if performance is in your blood it never leaves and you are abviously a slave to it now and forever as many others on here (including me) obviously are. My advice to the young tigers who are prepared to put in yards is to simply go for it. Too often we hear :get a boring car first: Well stuff that. If you want to learn to drive a fast car you wont do it in a boring car and something you had to sweat your arse off to buy is going to be treasured for sure.

You cant put an old head on young shoulders so dont try. The only advice I offer is to think before you bury the right foot. Where am I, What are the consequences if something does go wrong, Who else is at risk. Remember these things, I did and I had a tunnafun with my rides when I was younger. Gonna do it all over again now I am older too. :(

Yea you can put an old head on young shoulders, its think of every consequence which might result from your actions, then weigh it up and say "is it really worth it".. which is what you pretty much said straight after..

Older minds = Been there, done that...

Young minds = Need to try everything wether their told to or not...

Smart minds (young or old) = Think before they do and get their priorities straight...

I dunno if everyone will agree but screw yas if ya dont :(

EDIT : I was joking about the screw yas part :(

    • No. The simplest wastegate hookup, with no solenoid or other form of "boost control" (ie, control over your boost control, if you know what I mean) is a single hose, direct from the turbo outlet/hot pipe, straight and only to the wastegate actuator. It is that pressure signal that drives the wastegate to open, providing the boost control (and by "boost control" here, I mean, limiting how high it can go, which is essentially the spring pressure of the actuator). You only end up with tee pieces and alternate flow paths once you start adding things to the boost control system to allow you to determine how much of that boost signal makes it to the actuator. There are so many ways to do that that there is no single way to run the hoses and tees and the like. If you have a stock boost solenoid, then all it does is either allow all the boost signal to go to the actuator, or open up to allow some of it to bleed off. There needs to be a restriction in that bleeder to allow only a small amount to bleed off. And in a stock system, that would then be plumbed back to the turbo inlet (for "emissions control" reasons). That is actually what that nipple on your BOV return pipe could/would be for. If you have an aftermarket boost controller and solenoid, then the above is mostly true, but there is no need for a restrictor in the bleed, because the solenoid is pulse width modulated to create a variable bleed off. The air that escapes from the bleed can either be vented, or also returned to the turbo inlet. For emissions reasons it should be returned to inlet, but the amount of air being vented is so small that it really doesn't matter (either from an emissions perspective, or from an air-fuel ratio affecting perspective).
    • And other times you just need to go buy bigger injectors?
    • Yup. I actually just blew my turbo. LOL.  should have checked this thread before today. i also have no boost solenoid. so it should be...one line from wastegate to turbo inlet, and a T somewhere in that line that connects to the wastegate return pipe?
    • It's recommended, however I can assure you a good amount of people don't bother. FWIW, the OEM battery lasted 4.5 years and I changed it prematurely too, I reckon could have stretched it to 5 years.
    • Are you telling me I'm going to need a code reader etc to just change the battery when it dies...  Why did I let you talk me into allowing Kate to buy this car lol
