How much was the car?

well i got it from a car import yard so it cost abit more than private importing, and i had it checked to see if it was wound back by them no scratches not any thing wrong at all with it either, it was at $21,500 but got it down to $19,000 on roads and all, surprisingly the skyline is cheaper to insure with justcar insurance than a Honda civic... with justcar,. wat the hell is the go there, the civic was $1600 a year and this is $1200

Hi mate

really nice mate . . rims look cool - is it definately a 98 because i think all the 98's were 40th anniversary models?

yeah it is, last batch of the R33 series 2's, 1998 there are also R34's made in 1998 like my bosses 1 or maybe the 4 doors were 40th anniversary but my grill is allot diffrent. dident get any pix from strait on soz

Congrats on the new car matey...I'm sure you'll get many years driving pleasure from it.

All you need now is a body kit... I suggest you get a TRUST GT-R front bar, Nismo Side Skirts, GT-R pods for the back (no need for new bar) and chuck a Jun R33 Wing on... fork out like another $3,500 and all of the above plus some extra goodies will be on your way.

Good luck... looks very clean.

Yeah JustCar's the best, I got only 3rd Party for $400.

I think the only other insurance company to insure skylines are either commbank or NRMA.

I got quoted like $2500 by one of them for comprehensive.

I was like yeah, I'm going to pay that ... cya later.

and this was for my 96 S2 which I bought for $10,500 :D

yeah justcar was good about mine because i was with amy first off and thats there sister company. and i fully own mine no bank loan or any thing they put me to rating 2, so 1200 no mods. 1370 with exhaust and havent told them about the other mods yet ^^ but i will soon

ha same I haven't told them about the exhaust, FMIC, wheels or bodykit I put onto it :yes:

Your car looks wicked mate, i agree with Spunky Monkey with the Body kit. but still, it looks good :blush:

Thats an awesomely clean series 2 you have their mate. I disagree with the other guys and recommend that you leave the factory kit as is. All it needs is to be lowered a little with coilovers or the Sydneykid Bilstein group buy and it will look tops and handle better too.

Aftermarket bodykits look rice and attract cops. Enjoy the car mate, they are great fun, just need to do the obligatory bolt on mods and you will have a car that will put a continuing smile on your dial :)

but my grill is allot diffrent. dident get any pix from strait on soz

You've got a Nismo factory option grille :thumbs:

I agree with swink, leave the factory kit.... lower it perhaps, see Sydneykids R33 Bilstein groupbuy in the for sale section.

and Maybe tint the windows cos it's summer you'll wanna save that nice interior :)

yes very true, the last thing you need is a riced up jun wing...

lower it and keep it clean, you have m spec skirts already they are the goods. :nyaanyaa:

    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
