indeed, a 33.. like everybody else :D

Yeah right I see. Guess what I was trying to get at is that you like both but cuz its a Skyline forum and ppl make fun of Fords LOL! U must get annoyed and make fun of the Skylines.

Ah its all cool. I talk to a guy who loves HSV but he can appriciate all types of cars. You would figure that me having a GTR and talking to someone with a HSV = :teehee: but everyone is entitled to their own likes.

BTW did you see when Ford bought out the new Ford Cobra? Seriously they could have done way better. That was basicaly slapping on a Cobra badge on a Falcon. :)

Cobras were pure 2 door, like 1 / 2 seater classic all American muscle cars. They should just re-release the orginal.

Like what Holden were trying to do. They did an "Artist" impression of the Peter Brock HDT Commodores - the new generation http://www.drive.com.au/Editorial/ArticleD...ArticleID=43923

Atleast they could have just re-released the original, it just looks like a big fatty LOL!

I will be there on trade day, can't wait. it will be a very exciting event with a lot of new reveals from local manufacturers. All I can say it that us (holden) will have quite a suprise for people and will take away some of the attention of the new falcon reveal :ninja:

a bit off topic i know, but which subaru you working for?

wat do u mean wich subaru? lol

My mate has informed me that a work shop here in aust is already working on compliance for the new GTR and should hopefully be able to import them for road use later this year. My mate does tend to be pretty reliable with these things, but we will just have to wait and see, as I know Nissan australia will have something to say about it.

I dont think u can get compliance for cars that will be released in Australia. I read in High Performace Imports Magazine today that the GTR is set to be relased to Australian roads in 2010.

Screw the gtr, the new falcon is to be revealed at the auto show

LoL dude get off the Skyline forums

You will be able to get the early models that are on sale in Japan now, but not the models that are going to be sold at the same time as Nissan will release in Australia. eg..early S15 models etc.

I actually know of a few workshops that currently undergoing testing for SEVS approvals on this model.

But at the moment they may only be bought in for Race purposes.. :)

      100% I’ll hack into the 33. Strap a turbo onto the RB25DE and/or put the 25 head on a 30 block. 33 passed in cos the reserve was too high. I’ll try lowballing it again and negotiate. Aim is to have it landed and on the road for under 15k, then spend the same amount on top in mods.

      It's generally best practise to run 1x run without VCT enabled, then 1x run enabled till redline. Overlay the two torque graphs and you'll find the desired RPM to turn off VCT. Sometimes, it might be even worthwhile turning off VCT earlier control torque/cylinder pressure and using VCT purely to spool the turbo.

      First time I ever have issues with Amazon, but my wife often tells me to keep an eye out for fakes. It finally got me. I wrapped up the conversation with Gates. The gentlemen I was talking to seemed to hate his job but the response time on their technical support is outstanding. He stated that the hose is marked with some variation of "SAE J30R10" but that if you only purchase a 1 foot length like I did, it is possible to get a cut between markings and have a blank hose. To no ones surprise, he stated the swelling and "gummyness" isn't normal and to replace/buy from somewhere else (He mentioned NAPA). I'll toss a small end of the new one in gas for a few days before pulling the hanger out again, just to be safe.  Hose should arrive Monday. For those running multiple pump in tank hangers, you know the joys of getting them out and back in. I'm surprised I haven't destroyed my level float yet.  Lastly once I wrap all of this up, I'm planning on hitting the dyno again in 2 weeks while I'm on vacation. I realized recently that my VCT is set to turn off at 5000RPM. I'm surprised it wasn't increased while I was on the dyno last. I'm expecting I can increase it to ~6500RPM, if not more. Should hopefully get another 15-20kw out of it. I also want him to revisit my knock thresholds. I'm occasionally getting false knock around 3000rpm.
