And an apology to Munro - of course Johns insane beasts shoulda been listed first .... apologies John!

I assure you that my 'beasts' are quite tame - really.

actually, it's quite funny - my "2 fastest R33 GTRs in Adelaide" have no engines in them at the moment.One is out for a rebuild due to oil pump failure (drift6), & the race engine is out for a check

over & to get the car painted - so I'm slumming it with the R34!!!

I disagree about Phuman's R34. I like it. I normally dont like R34s

in white, but I think the flames look good.I think it's donw tastefully, & I have been for a couple of rides in it & it's a great car

Rice IMO is stickers & wings on a non performance shopping trolley like a Hyundai or something.It would be good if there were more well looked after/showy cars like Phu's around - after all it is an R34 isn't it!! I have been cruising with those guys a few times recently & they know how to put their foot down. Was thinking about flames for the race car, but not sure how they would look on Blue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe not.

Also would like to add that Trust6 is one of the best looking Skylines in Adelaide & I love what you have done with it. I am sad

that we dont see it out on cruises regularly like we used to, but when we do, it's always a pleasure - well done Matt(Whatsisname)

see everyone at the dyno day.Dont forget the sauce.

Hey nightcrawler, timmmayyy & nozila.

Phuman's car looks real different allot different from a Silhouette and the stickers make it stick out.

If it was all about the little dick, big car thing. Then Munro has a big problem look how many GTR's he has got? I think a little more support then putting down peoples cars! People could say somthing about your car? All I am trying to say is that He is a nice dude and good on him I driven next to him and I know that my car does not even get a look at. Now thats what its all about for some people. Maybe it might look over the top but so does body kits to others. Just think before you may judge a nothers car it might happen to you

Who cares if people say something about my car? Why does it matter what they say or think? Am i trying to impress them? Or am i trying to keep myself happy? A bit of thought might have helped before you posted.

I have no doubt that some people think that R31's are a POS. But it doesn't bother me, cos its MY car, and NOT theres.

Thanks for the kind words John. To be totally honest I really don't think my car is all that flash. It's getting there though, bit by bit. Interior is the next point of focus, oh yeah.... & a 12sec 1/4 :D

Slumming in a 34 GT-R, you poor bugger. Hey I can lend you my Sigma if you like, & I'll put up with the 34 ;)

Yep, have an appointment today - right after my penile extention.

Then I'm getting pink & purple poka dots put all over the EVO &

massive lightning bolt stickers & nismo/apexi/HKS stickers all over the R34.Was thinking about stensiling thunder clouds on the SS ute for good measure.

Hmmm - I'm feeling a bit silly this morning. I better go for a hard drive in the Hills & get it out of my system!!!

Whatsisname - dont be so modest, your car rocks.Get stickers.

Phat 33 .... I didn't put his car down man - just said the stickers suck ass .... take it easy dude - take a chill pill. I am allowed to not like his stickers - sheesh.

As for it now not 'looking like a Silhouette' - hrmm I think you're getting R34 confused with R31 - they haven't made a Silhouette since about 1988 (to my knowledge).

Whoa!!@! calm down Timmmayyy. there is no way dude.

R34s are killer & look fully sik re! R31s are ... well... R31s.

No offence, but you are dreamin.

Of course - considering you could have ten or so R31s for the price of an R34, they are extremely good value, so no-one is

knocking them. BTW - I didn't know you wore stockings!!!!!!

Gotta agree with John there .... whilst you can definitely appreciate the 'heritage', it's like looking at a posie of flowers next to a pile of dog droppings :( .... in relative terms of course :D

Hahaha you're the first person to say that actually, though you are entitled to you opinion. And by you could probably buy 15 or 16 R31's like mine for the price of a R34 GTR.

hehe yes each to their own Timmay .... I know there are plenty of people out there that think S15s are POS, but not eveyone likes the same thing!

Speaking of R34s .... http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/au/st...asp?StockID=322 - my dream car!

Grepin, sorry dude I think I'm confusing you with Freebaggin (maybe) - when we had the dyno day at Tillbrooks with the LS1 lads there was a R33 with an RB26 in it and it was insane ....

Stickers? Ok you've sprung me guys. Here's my plan for Autosalon re stickers - I was thinking of putting some of those easily removable babies room decorating stickers on my 33, you know like some Winnie the poo kinda stuff. Would that be fully sik mate or what!? In fact you could be fully sik on them & it'd wipe right off no prob's :(

Hip,

You be watchin' me dude? :P I do indeed scope the Trust sticker action @ Autobarn. Although I've found Car Toys have a better selection of Trust stickers. I like to think of myself as a Trust sticker connoisseur :D

Andy,

The tough 33 GTS25t you're thinking of belongs to 'Spoolin' (Lee). 282rwkw on the Tilbrook dyno day. His car still has an RB25DET but with RB26 internals. Dunno' where he is these days?

MattR/John,

Why do you guys wanna' go up into the hills to get computer parts? :D :D

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
