Saw a silver R33 Series 1 GTS-T with a shopping list down the side and a GTR badge in the front grill!! I hate it when people do that. Why try to fake it? Just makes you look like a moron. As soon as he spotted me he dropped behind so I wouldn't get a good look at the car but he didn't realise I had been behind him for 5 klm.

spotted a silver R33....in the driveway of a house in the street I'm staying at in Sunnybank - looked like everyone was having a few drinks in the garage...

wanted to beep but then remembered I was in a crappy hire car and not a Skyline so I would have just seemed like some random weirdo :D

i'm with you Dave. what's worse is when they put a GTR badge on the back and don't remove the GTS25t decal. HELLO!! haven't you heard of a hairdrier and eucalypstus oil you idiot. if you're going to fake it, do it properly please people.

Went for a cruise up the coast to BWCP (as you can see I'm from nsw) with some mates tonight.

Needless to say I spotted a shitload of skylines.

On the way up a black R32 with "LOR32" numberplates came screaming up past us and then decided it would be a good idea to overtake a car on the inside using a non-existant (crossed-out) lane.. lol

Saw some orange R32, for some reason it sounded really awful??

A silver R33 with a blue stripe decal.

Blue R34 GTR with gold wheels i think.

Cant remember any others, unfortunately most looked the same and few had custom plates so I couldn't remember them.

Actually surprised I think i only saw 2 other wine red R33s, i expected a lot more lol.

Was anyone from here at BWCP tonight?

:rofl: Today I saw a metallic blue R33 GTR (I think. no badge but sounded like it) In yeronga at around 10:30 this morning..It had the JGTC style body kit and big deep dish work equips, In fact it was the same as the white GTR in HPI 46 only painted blue (Possibly a colour change for that same car??) ..On the road it looked massive I swear like 5 inches wider per side!! Any way who ever owns it good work cause that thing is amazing! Much better in real life than in the magazine

Yeah funny I thought wtf would anyone be doing down this way haha….and for future reference my parents live at Cedar Grove NOT Jimboomba…don't associate me with that place :blink:

Had to go pick up my stuff I had left laying around the place, did you guys see me fighting the lid of the storage box that decided to do laps of the cars interior cause I had the window down???

Was good to actually see someone from SAU on the road for once!

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
