if he doesnt have one buy one or borrow one, best bet is to buy one as you'll have headaches from teh popo for having front mount & pod as your only allowed one intake mod. same applies for bov should be able to pick up both for under $100.

as for speedo no idea.

Sweet thanks.

So wreckers for the stock air box then? eBay didn't seem to have one.

I just hope the engine passes the compression test on Tuesday! I'm getting excited now!

I recnetly got a series 2 r33 gtst and was driving it home from endeavour hills to hawthorn and got pulled over within 45mins of owning the car, i showed the cop the rwc i got with the car so he didnt really look over it much, however i didnt have any p plates up, hadnt been to pety station to get any, so i got done for no p plates, i thought i was f**ked as being too powerful car for p plate driver, but he didnt mention it, LLuucky, but i havent recieved any letter from vic roads regarding licencing issues and its already been a month, strange?? im hoping someone f**ked up along the way cause i opnly have one point left... aaagggrrr

What are you asking exactly or are you just telling us a story?

What are you asking exactly or are you just telling us a story?

well i think people here are unsure about whether they can drive a r33 turbo on ps or not or not, i was just saying that the cop knew i was on my p plates but didnt investigate whether i was aloud to drive the car or not, so maybe p platers are aloud. i had a look on vicroads websit and we r aloud to drive turbos but its limited to 130kw per tonne or something, so my reason for posting is to hopefully clear confusion for other members

What you have posted is factually wrong.

I doubt there are any P platers under the OLD system. (125kw/tonne)

The new system outright bans turbos - that is fact, that is on the VicRoads website.

Your story is one of luck only.

even then a r33 gtst is still over the power to weight ratio anyway

So what about something like a BT-50..

I mean I highly doubt a cop is gunna rag on a kid for driving one as its hardly a performance vehicle , but technically it is a turbo

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
