i'm not complaing, we could do will all the rain we could get...

man, what is it with some people. This has NOTHING to do with being a hero, or being 'fully sick'. My goodness, i spend most of driving trying to beat the fuel economy figures i got the tank before (in economical terms).

it was soooo slippery out there today, maybe i just collected some decent oily water from beach road or something, but this was just a WARNING to everyone else that the roads might be a bit more dangerous than they would expect after some rain. F*cking hell, excuse me for warning fellow SAU Vic peeps to take it a bit easier than they might think...

fark....

i agree no one has jumped on hear and started saying how awsome they could slide out going round corners and stuff like that at all, and how much of a hero they are at doing it, all he was saying is be careful because it hasnt rained in a while and the roads always become extra slippery because of it.

man the roads were awesome today!!, full opposite lock and arm out the window! If only i had my helmet to hold out the window like all the d1 drifters!

:(

seriously though, the roads were slipperly today especially in the morning. With the water picking up all the dust/oil + 8am peakhour and everyone still half a sleep on the roads, its just asking for trouble

lol fully sik you should of filmed it and put it up on youtube. :D

if you think we are talking about hoon driving in this topic look at the last comments in the 'spotted' thread thats some stuff to complain about not this.

^^^LOLLLL i remember them pics^^^

Seriously tho, you dont have to be fully sik to get caught out un-expectedly. And due to the fact that it just doesnt rain all that often anymore we need to be wary that everyone's wet driving experience has decreased slightly....

I had a Burger in one hand and dart in the other, 3rd gear and my back and was steppin out, and I hardly had my foot on the throttle too.

you smoke in your 34???? :) that makes baby jesus cry

Im not trying to drag how "fully sick" my car is. And I can easily control the throttle so I dont loose traction when coming out my drive in the wet, I was just agreeing with how easy it was due to conditions and how I was caught by surprise yesterday morning.

yeah my ass end was all over the place on the way home. heard there were a few crashes around.

amazing how it can go from hot dry 35 degrees then the next day 22 rainny cold and wind. Only in Melb :)

Not quiet. In Canada they have Chinook (sp?) winds... one day it could be minus 35 C in winter and the next day it can be plus 5 C. Melbourne has nothing like that lol

Seriously what a poor excuse for the thread. You guys are muppets.

1. Yes throttle control is important

2. You don't' have to be a fu(king hero to spin wheels in the wet so get of you pedestals princesses. I span my Fords wheel in the wet going up a hill yesterday, why? Because it's simply SHIT in the wet but it took all of 0.5 of a second to stop it. Jesus - someone call the hoon squad before I kill someone.

Rant over! :D

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
