Hey people,

I am moving to Brisbane in the first week of April from Hobart. I am looking for a new workshop to work on my car & give it a full tune. Its an r33 gtst making 262rwkw but its capably of easy 300's just need to find the right tuner up there! Can anyone suggest any?

Also in regards to parts, Where do you's buy them from up there? At the moment i buy all mine through Revolution Racegear in Hobart.

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers

Alan

PFC can be tuned by most workshops in Brisbane.

I have heard that Chris from Bob Romano does a good job with Motec, but I cannot confirm this, but decent cars have been seen there. Matt Spry may also work on Motec...can anyone confirm this?

Haltech are fast gaining a great reputation though, since PFC is not as readily available. Richard of All Star tuning would be your man for Haltech.

Warm yeh...35 predicted for Sunday :rofl: Aircon FTW :D

Hi Alan,

Looking for track days, I'm your man. Check out this link to my site:

http://www.timeattack.com.au/

We are having a SAU afternoon at Qld Raceway on May 17 and the AWD shoot-out is coming up March 28. There is always good Skyline representation at the day.

As for a tuner, I now have Mick from Signature working on my car and am happy with the progress. We are currenlty looking at a track day brake upgrade from the standard Nissan gear. I hope to have it all sorted by the March 28 track day.

Mick's website is:

Richard also did a really good job on my PFC :no:

      I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?

      Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?

      So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
