Edited by Munkyb0y

i reckon there is something wrong with it 4 sure bro. those motors are f**ken expensive yeah andd he hasnt even kicked it over if he wantd a cr like that he shoulda got a monaro or something. and a 33 y????

pink is fugly lookin as well

Pfft never been started. Who the hell builds up a car with big powerfull engine etc, hooks every thing up to it to work, then goes "hmm i dont think i want to hear this run now or take it for a drive".

Yeah right.

something mells fishy doesnt it!

It has a Chev' badge on the front, go Aussie pride lol

I have to say, the owner seems to have put alot of time/effort/money on the car. Wasted in my opinion, I think Skylines are everything V8s aren't. Quiet, subtle, modern and with a little less bogan spec. Not to say it won't hammer, 6.5L is a little on the largish scale. Got to laugh at the X-Box in it though, spend all that money and decide the 360 is too much :laughing-smiley-014: .

But let for a second imagine he gets it all set up, running and decides to keep it. He says he wanted to build it for street/strip, so I imagine he wants to drive it on the road. Would you be brave enough to drive it around without insurance for fear of the "LOOK AT ME!!!" that it will send out to police and thieves alike, not to mention the everyday idiot on the road? Would you be able to afford the insurance? Would you be even able to GET insurance?

At least it doesn't have chromes, although I think it may be a matter of time...

clearly the owner set out to make something different and that is what they have done. ALOT of work has been done to it so i can respect it from that point of view but the bright pink on a v8 skyline is a bit much though.

its like saying look at this tough car....it has a chevy badge on it, its bright pink it sounds mean but i have a jamie oliver lisp and listen to classical music through my subs.

with a spray job it would be sweet.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
