Why because u drive a liberty?

possibly..

but more so that people still go and hang out with defectable cars at locations and do shit to attract attention, then get done.

then complain.

I can't wait till the first aus car crushing.. :D

Just for you qld people...

I worked at QPS for 11 months as an IT contractor.

Believe me when I tell you this.

They have accounts on every single online car forum you could think of.

They organise these little "stings" as you guys organise your cruise/meetups.

They will leave the charity cruise things be, but anything like "blah blah carpark meet and cruise to blah blah", will more then likely end up with internal paperwork being started to organise the required cars/man power/equipment required to defect you for your headlights that aren't alligned.

I just think it's funny that people still don't learn.

but yes, it's because I drive a liberty :blink: Poof!

I have the bottom end and the head/inlet setup at the shop will be building them up over the next few months.

Atm i want to get my 25 gearbox conversion done so i can hit the track with the 20 a couple of times before pulling it out and slotting in the 2630.

Will take me till the end of the year i think to get the new motor finished. I have the head/inlet and the 30 bottom end at the workshop will build those after the gbox conversion is done and i have had some track time.

Also looking to get a mod plate for my 2 seater conversion, where is a good place for that?

Oh and im puttin my stock bov back on in the next few hours that should make u happy ;)

haha you bet correct, looking at making a box for it like iceberg but i might just hold off and do one for the 2630. Something like the one in this pic

im not sure if having an unshielded pod is a defect so hopefully ill be right (maybe i should call transport)

As I understand it they don't issue you a defect because your car is defective, they issue it because they think your car might be defective. The trip over the pits is to confirm or deny their suspicions, at your cost and inconvenience unfortunately but that's the way it is.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
