What rims are you after Murray? I thought between all three of those businesses, you could take your pick of 95% of jap rims on the market.

After some Work or Rays wheels, or even Manarays, so far some places have the right wheels, but in 17s or have 18s with s**t offset lol....i'll keep looking, but if anyone knows anywhere else i could try.....?

Hey guys,

First time poster, long time reader :P

I own a R33 GTS t, a few mods like rims, coilovers ect, but my egine is stock as a rock.

A mate just offered me a Greddy profec b 2 brand new never used still in the box for 350 bucks. All the reviews on the net that ive seen are all mixed.....

Just wnna know if you rekon it worth me buying and installing( having in mind that there will be more engine mods in the future) or is it a waste of my dosh???

I'm back from the V8s!

I'm still tired, sore and drowsy ... but I had the best time. I guess I'm converted. I have a new appreciation for the V8s motorsport after working within the pits with the teams.

Best part was Tander's garage was one of my teams, and that garage went off like it was 1999 when Tander made that bold move and took the lead on the last lap! All the other pitlane officials hated me getting the HRT garage :P

Need more sleep :P

Welcome :P

From what I've heard locally, they're a good, solid unit. Just don't increase the boost too much on that stock turbo.

I'd say go for it Bildo - just set it at a nice conservative 10psi and it will flatten out your boost curve and make power a tiny bit more linear. Then later on when you do more mods you will benefit from nice consistent boost and have the ability to wind it up when you get a better turbo.

Cheers for the feedback guys,

Going to grab it Thursday then :P

And i'll tell ya how it goes, guesse you'll hear a bit more from me now that i have a log in, and im gonna need to upload some pics of my ride.......you'll love the rims DISH AS! haha

Cheers!

hey all.

does anyone have an account with motor traders? can get cheap parts?

need 4x hec716 (ls1 coilpacks)

going external setup on the CA18det..

if anyone has hook ups let me know :P

also,

took my car to get some work done/oil cooler fitted. picked up the car and oil cooler lines were cut to "make them fit better (too long apparently)"

once they were cut the workshop couldnt get fittings to go on them so now i have an oil cooler with cut lines and nothing to connect them with..

what can i do? claim them against the business?

cheers

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
