I drive past Plympton alot. Hope that wasn't me....what kind of rims and headlights??

I haven't seen any black Coupes like mine down my end of town.

Driving into the city I see V's a fair amount but it is the first V I have seen in my area of Plympton.

It had a black grill with an infinity badge, black rims and aftermarket headlights.

The only badge on the back was Skyline, looked like it had been modified a bit to look like a sleeper.

If it was you, please :action-smiley-069: to me next time, feeling a little lonely in my V. (don't look at how dirty it is at the moment though!)

I have a black grill, infinity badge and aftermarket headlights. Also only have the skyline on the back. But i dont have black rims, dark not black. Also i have a quad exhaust if you saw the back?

I may have mistakenly thought that the rims were black, they were definitely dark rims. Very nice ride :)

Thats it there...havent taken any recent piccies of it

Not real dark rims, May not have been me, but haven't seen any others like mine with my mods

Also it has SA plates now, so ignore the VIC ones

The rims were like a dark powdercoat and the front was the same.

I was in my silver V35 four door, car is completely original including the rims but has a double barrel exhaust. SA number plate ending in ACD.

It was in morning peak hour traffic so I will forgive this time if it was you :yes: but next time I want a :wave:

So basically i'm keeping it on the low-down and keeping out of trouble and trying not to draw attention to myself incase i do meet an educated police officer who knows that the car is illegal for me.

Sorry, that was my point.. it isn't illegal/restricted for you in Qld.. it is under 210kw, isn't a V8 or turbo charged.. so you don't need to worry..

Even if it's over the power to weight ratio legal limit? :whistling:

Power to weight only applies when applying for an exemption. I thought that vehicles had to be below 206kw?

^^ what he said.. (except it is under 210kw in Qld).

That is why I previously said that if Qld Transport ever decide to ban the 350GT, you don't have any hope of getting an exception..

i pass thru plympton most days. 90% of the time i dont see any either, then occasionally i see more than a few in a couple hours.

oh and define "double barrel exhaust"

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • 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).
