Hiyas, been here researching my car purchase for the last few months, great articles (if a little hard to find at times)..

but anyways, just picked up my new car YAY.

R33 series 2, 75 thou on the clock, white (unfortunate, but quality came before color in car selection) beautiful car. i live about 350km's west of brissie up the Warrego highway :) so picking up the car from Burliegh was a road trip in itself.

liked it when i picked it up, love it now that i realised its actually quite nice up the old goat track (warrego highway), glad i got a standard one.

will get lowered and some work done, but not till i move back to civilisation, except maybe a slight zorst, and a bigger intercooler.

It was spotless when i picked it up, now its filthy, i have a feeling im gonna spend the rest of my life cleaning it :bunny:

if your ever passing thru dalby-miles area and see me ill be waving, we're few and far between out here

Hey people, I'm Daniel, aka preo (my last name in English, not that I'm a foreigner I've just got a hard to spell surname).

I'm moving up to the Gold Coast in two weeks with my wife and 7 month old. I've been around these forums and nissansilvia.com for a little while now but haven't seen much action in the last two years because the three two has been off the track while I worked on a engine for it. Good news is I've got it all back together and running so now I just need to find a way to get it registered in QLD.

Hope I get to meet some of you in the coming months.

Cheers,

Preo

Oh my I'm naughty! Been on the forum HOW long and I haven't come in to officially say hi to you guys :) Sorry!

I'm Ben, live at Scarborough (Redcliffe) and have a 32 GTS-t. I also built a 32 GTR from scratch many many years ago. My son of rajab I'm feeling old now. lol

Anyways, g'day guys! I'd like to become a Qld paid up member too so I can get invites to your motorsport days. Can anyone link me up?

Cheers! :)

    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
    • I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.    
    • Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
    • I used to do that (sills with rubber jack block).. ... then I got side skirts, and there's no way for the jack to actually work there, the jack pad itself on the jack is too big. Is the answer to use a... smaller (?) jack? Hmmm.
    • I have too much trauma from every skyline I've ever seen having crushed jack points/pinch welds lol.    Yep, works 100%, it's what I use when I'm using the quick jack. Don't know why I can't also bring myself to do the same thing when I'm using a jack. I blame the skyline PTSD.
