was down at powercruise on saturday saw, many skylines, a blue 32, white r33, black r33 gtr and silver gtr r32,

maroon r33

the black r33 gtr was awesome , sounded like some big cams and boost, kicked ass down the straight, the silver gtr 32 won the drag part over a pretty quick blue VL turbo, anyone see that? some angry rbs held there own out there. :domokun:

Blue VL turbo runs an LS V8 with a big evil single turbo and a 2 speed, has gone as fast as 8.8 on the strip I belive... Oh yeah and it's street legal he drives it to the track for test and tunes :O

Definitely a good day. the R32 GTR that won the drags, was built from the ground up by the owner. 100k + has been spent so far he reckons. Running a Percision 6XXX turbo. cant remember exactly which type.

Last Thursday 7/2/13 I saw 4 Skylines in the matter space of 15 minutes.

Saw that same white Skyline with the black bonnet on Kedron Brook Rd (Next time I see them I'm going to ask if they're a member) then 4 car spaces up a grey V35 coupe with P Plates.

Then I saw an amazing sounding 34 GT-R on Webster Rd turn the corner and there's a ice blue V35 on Stafford Rd (Grange)

Ha ha yeah. I'm still not used to seeing so many imports. I still get that excited girly giggle when I see them all together and a small puddle of drool forms and I have to change my pants every time I see a 35 (it's like seeing a celeb)

So 2 Skylines and 2 Maximas :P I see heaps around my area, not many members though.

Ive noticed this too

spotted R35 GTR today, followed him onto the highway at Bribie island turnoff. numberplate was "1GTR". sexy :)

She's talking Bout V 35s. ;)

sure she was... :P

I was in the Clem 7 earlier, R33 a few cars back. I turned my stereo off and put the window down just so I could listen to that exhaust note....then it all got spoilt by some lumpy ass Ford Ute with its V8 burble burble cough grunt.

The R33 "Chutter" I thought was a bit disappointing. Sounded good was cruising but when he was flogging i in the drags it was way too loud for the speed it was going.

It's very quick actually. Ran 10.1 @ 146 a few weeks before Powerplay. The owner owns 101 Motorsport and also has a 32GTR that runs low 9's @ 160mph and is about to go 8's very soon with the latest mods. Runs a 6 speed Hollinger in the 33 but was having issues at Powerplay including a broken front diff so was only rwd and struggling to put down the 800+HP it makes at the wheels. It's broken a box and a few other things in the last month so it's having some issues sorted. Keep an eye on it because once the issues are fixed and the boost gets wound up past 23psi I'm sure you will see it running low 9's at 160+ mph.

I'll take the sound of a tuff v8 any day of the week over a 6 banger.

old school muscle sure, auto commo with little to no exhaust......no.

and i have the right to an opinion, a screaming RB26 still wins IMO

You obviously haven't heard my auto Commo then :P None of this chopped muffler stock engine shit with heaps of drone. Fully built LS1 with a custom exhaust. It's so tough it makes Carlos Ghosn squirt a little bit of white sticky substance in his pants everytime I start it :D

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
