they were already on the car when it came over here. i was lucky, they are the genuine nismo ones which apparently cost an arm n a leg to get. i saw ur on ur red P's, fkn stay away from knox man pettit is back on the loose and handing out defects left right n centre

that doesn't concern me as the 34 is 100 percent stock lol...

So today while I was waiting to get two new tyres popped onto the Skyline... ...I was sitting in the nice warm sun and two asian students walked past... ...And I only overheard one part of the conversation... ...But it's had me laughing all afternoon...

"Did you really fail, or just 'Asian Fail' and get a B?"

Sorry I'm new to this but can someone explain who pettett is? I understand he's a cop, but is he on the forum named as pettett or something? And what does he look like so I know if I've been pulled over by him haha!

he is some cop who some call a "dickwad"...i have never been pulled over by him but if you drive a modded car(skyline) and he happens to pull you over, be prepared to bend over, he is statoined at knox, which sucks for me as im a red p plater driving a r34 who happens to live 2 mins away from knox city... :whistling:

been luck so far not to run into pettet. live in rowvile and am in knox area everyday.

if your car is legal and your not drawing attention to yourself then you have nothing to worry about. its not like he will see you driving and just dart for you, pull you over and start making love with your ass.

his only doing his job and keeping the road safe. thats all.

    • 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?
