thanks guys, not sure wot the front bar is exactly, bought the car from a mate, so i'll ask him wot it is. picked her up for $12k which is pretty decent price i reckon. yeh BOV stall is a bit of pain, pulled it off for rwc anyway, will plum it back wen i put it back on. there wont be any drunk mates gettin in this puppy. went alarm shopping today. getting alarm w glass/shock sensors imobiliser, keyless entry, central locking, thinking about remote start. .but that an extra $500 for wank factor. .probly wont bother. auto cuz i drive it on our crappy crappy congested freeways 5 days a week :spank:

hey kids, just a quick update if any1s interested. i tracked down a GTR style grill to toughen up the front end (even more!) and gettin my big badass alarm next week, so i can stop bein quite so paraniod about leavin her anywhere for more than 5 minutes. after that lot i'll be sorting my stereo good an proper.. have a kenwood 4 ch amp to power up the 6" pioneers all around, jbl monblock and alpine type R sittin here waiting to go in.. and i picked out my kenwood 7" touch screen to run the show.

still deciding whether to get a real nice clean boot install, with sub in the centre an amps either side in grey carpet. let me kno wot ya think of the plans :P

i like your plans so far. one thing though, DO NOT install HIDs. they look shit in r33 headlights. the stock units arent designed to work with them and you get flaring and glare and all sorts of shit. the only way to do hids properly is to do a retrofit, where you take OEM hids from another car and fit them into your reflector headlights.

and what is that front bar? it is very hot

Auto skylines ftw!!

    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
