Hey Peeps,

Though i might introduce myself in the ACT thread! Well firstly if i dont reply its not cos i dont wanna its cos i dont have the internet much atm, but once its connected youll see me on here heaps!

I just sold my 250 rwkw soarer for a standard skyline, kind of always wanted one but was after something stock and manual :) well i got that

My beast wagon is a Maroon manual series 1 r33 with zorst and thats about it, looking at doing a few little things like fmic, dump pipe small things like that and some hids cant believe how bad the lights are on it.

Need to sort out a miss that it has on idle, ive cleaned the afm to no avail. Might try the idle controller thingy (tip from a fellow liner)

Anyone on here interested in or does powerlifting as a hobbie?

Kind Regards

PK

Welcome.

Also could be a coil or 2 arking to the head before getting to the sparkie. Very common occurance. Remedy:New splitfires etc or new standard coils. Way to test, borrow someones working coil and replace each one, one by one untill it stops, if not, then maybe something else.

I would assume the usual Autobarn etc places would have it. If you talk to Nathan (Nath32) who usually works at either Belco or Fyshwick Autobarn and get chumy, you might be able to score a discount on stuff.

@ testing stuffed coils.... I think you'd be lucky if just one was stuffed. I had 2-3 that were stuffed. If you want to find out if it's the coils, remove the coilpack cover, go for a hard drive at night, pull over and pop the hood, stick ur head in and see if u can spot the arc'ing. It's dead obvious :P

Welcome!

      I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?

      Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?

      So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
