aussie discount mufflers and dyno is corner of pt road and south road next to dazzlers!!!

ill be there next week to get tune and some bits made up :D awsome guys and treat ur car well!!

tell em ryan sent u!

there ya go

that second car the silver 33GTR looks like it has SA plates and im pretty sure that photo was taken at Tilbrooks workshop.

yep I was there the day they brought that wrecked R33GTR in - was not a sorry sight at all :)

im sooooo in LOVE :D

hey mate, if you want to spend $30k on an R34GTT buy mine :) .... but mine has 230rwkw and all sort of fruit that that one doesn't have :) (and before everyone asks - no I am not actively trying to sell my car - but everything is for sale at the right price).

while your talking about wiring, are you any good with headlight wiring Ryan?

my parkers(angel eyes, just the led ring and dash lights) come one when my door is opened. they turn off when i shut my door, and still work fine via the headlight stalk.

could that mean that the person that wired them up somehow crossed them with the interior light switch, so its turned on when the door is open?

hmmm....strange...seems something simular to what your saying only they took the power from two sources...pm me if you want me to have a sus sometime.

there ya go

thanks for the free plugs adrian...aussie dyno will look after anyone who says Ryan sent you hehe....see ya down there guys.

The last round of school holidays, some little c***s kicked my bins over in the early hours of the morning... just about everyone in my street copped it as well. Little shits.

f**king little shits, as soon as school holidays start, you start seeing wheelie bins burnt out/tipped over, more graffiti etc etc

On a unrelated topic, does anyone know what size 1:62 model scale equats to in actual size?

    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
    • You have no idea how many goddamn boxes I received these past three months haha Most have been put to use by now though, luckily
    • Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
    • Regardless of neglect or incompetence, fixing either is tedious and annoying. Most of the neglect on my car is definitely rust. I hope I can at least pass inspections later on and they won't fail the car due to slightly corroded hardlines. I was generous with rust converter and wax and it looks ok, most lines in the rear are hard to see properly anyways.  Definitely will test them though to make sure they don't rupture under pressure, in that case the car isn't going anywhere this year.
