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 will be in the same boat i will need gps for the first month. I dont move there for another month should have our house in a week or two.

Welcome well sort of since i dont live there yet.

So why did you move there?

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
