Ive got full audio system, front mount intercooler, new tyres/wheels.

Im thinking Alpine Type R System, Greddy Front Mount, 18 inch wheels, possibly chrome diablo rims

Anyone know people who put together good tire packages?

everyone will recommend their own tyre places, but go and speak to Troy at Jack Baker Tyrepower on Currie St (website: http://www.adelaidetyrepower.com ) and he'll be able to go thru what he's put on similar cars, what works, what doesnt, what size is good, and what is good on your back pocket

i can guarantee there's plenty of other places people will point you towards, but at the end of the day, shop around and find yourself the best deal for what you like the best

o shit where do i start ;)

Brand new Nur Crate engine http://page16.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auct...1501#enlargeimg

Twin GT-RS making around 400-450kw

All supporting mods, oil cooler, transcooler, diff cooler, oil return lines, catch cans, baffle sump, tomei oil pump +more

GTR front incl guards, nismo front bar, front diffuser, z-tune cf bonnet, rears flared to fit 19x10 +12, rear carbon diffuser...

Finish off my boot install, which i can remove for track work, du-luck pillar brace, cusco half cage

Power fc, ebc etc

probably more

I was gonna say 'your momma' (in tribute to the butterfingers song 'your mummas on the top of my things-to-do-list)

but thats not kosher. so yeah, sticking to the topic at hand

- subwoofaaa/woofa installation

- conzult cable

- more carbon look interior bits

- interior retrim

- replacement of dodgy interior pieces

- gearbox replacement w/ nismo gearbox mounts

- adjustible castor rods

- n1 spoiler lip for boot

- exterior respray to touch up dodgy finish

- turbos replacement

- adjustible cam gears

- nismo oil/water caps

- 040/044 fuel pump

- 800cc sard injectors

- injector rail

- poncams

- non atmospheric vented oil catchcan

- n1 water pump fitted

- radiator shroud

- bigger radiator

- z32 afm's

- dump pipes, hiflow cat from exh tech

- 34 gtr rims and 235 toyo t1r proxes to fit

- dba slotted/dimpled rotors and ebc greenstuff to fit

I think thats it. If anyone wants to buy one of my thrashed out kidneys, the starting price is $20k as well as a farmers union iced coffee. Pst for more info.

-D

i got a single plate brass button clutch going in tomorrow

then i want a set of lightweight forged 18" wheels

then a cusco 1.5 way diff

after that, im not sure. that covers most of what i wanna do.

maybe a respray later on, but im in no hurry. ;)

Edited by Sambo33

i just ordered 6 boost low mount manifold

eboost 2

nismo 740cc injecters

dba slotted front n rear rotors

endless pads

braided lines

splitfire coils

possibly a garrett gt35/40 (just waiting on Ryan 2 make me a damn offer on my gt30/40..lol)

hoping for over 350rwkw, want 2 make it a complete SLEEPER

    • I know why it happened and I’m embarrassed to say but I was testing the polarity of one of the led bulb to see which side was positive with a 12v battery and that’s when it decided to fry hoping I didn’t damage anything else
    • I came here to note that is a zener diode too base on the info there. Based on that, I'd also be suspicious that replacing it, and it's likely to do the same. A lot of use cases will see it used as either voltage protection, or to create a cheap but relatively stable fixed voltage supply. That would mean it has seen more voltage than it should, and has gone into voltage melt down. If there is something else in the circuit dumping out higher than it should voltages, that needs to be found too. It's quite likely they're trying to use the Zener to limit the voltage that is hitting through to the transistor beside it, so what ever goes to the zener is likely a signal, and they're using the transistor in that circuit to amplify it. Especially as it seems they've also got a capacitor across the zener. Looks like there is meant to be something "noisy" to that zener, and what ever it was, had a melt down. Looking at that picture, it also looks like there's some solder joints that really need redoing, and it might be worth having the whole board properly inspected.  Unfortunately, without being able to stick a multimeter on it, and start tracing it all out, I'm pretty much at a loss now to help. I don't even believe I have a climate control board from an R33 around here to pull apart and see if any of the circuit appears similar to give some ideas.
    • Nah - but you won't find anything on dismantling the seats in any such thing anyway.
    • Could be. Could also be that they sit around broken more. To be fair, you almost never see one driving around. I see more R chassis GTRs than the Renault ones.
    • Yeah. Nah. This is why I said My bold for my double emphasis. We're not talking about cars tuned to the edge of det here. We're talking about normal cars. Flame propagation speed and the amount of energy required to ignite the fuel are not significant factors when running at 1500-4000 rpm, and medium to light loads, like nearly every car on the road (except twin cab utes which are driven at 6k and 100% load all the time). There is no shortage of ignition energy available in any petrol engine. If there was, we'd all be in deep shit. The calorific value, on a volume basis, is significantly different, between 98 and 91, and that turns up immediately in consumption numbers. You can see the signal easily if you control for the other variables well enough, and/or collect enough stats. As to not seeing any benefit - we had a couple of EF and EL Falcons in the company fleet back in the late 90s and early 2000s. The EEC IV ECU in those things was particularly good at adding in timing as soon as knock headroom improved, which typically came from putting in some 95 or 98. The responsiveness and power improved noticeably, and the fuel consumption dropped considerably, just from going to 95. Less delta from there to 98 - almost not noticeable, compared to the big differences seen between 91 and 95. Way back in the day, when supermarkets first started selling fuel from their own stations, I did thousands of km in FNQ in a small Toyota. I can't remember if it was a Starlet or an early Yaris. Anyway - the supermarket servos were bringing in cheap fuel from Indonesia, and the other servos were still using locally refined gear. The fuel consumption was typically at least 5%, often as much as 8% worse on the Indo shit, presumably because they had a lot more oxygenated component in the brew, and were probably barely meeting the octane spec. Around the same time or maybe a bit later (like 25 years ago), I could tell the difference between Shell 98 and BP 98, and typically preferred to only use Shell then because the Skyline ran so much better on it. Years later I found the realtionship between them had swapped, as a consequence of yet more refinery closures. So I've only used BP 98 since. Although, I must say that I could not fault the odd tank of United 98 that I've run. It's probably the same stuff. It is also very important to remember that these findings are often dependent on region. With most of the refineries in Oz now dead, there's less variability in local stuff, and he majority of our fuels are not even refined here any more anyway. It probably depends more on which SE Asian refinery is currently cheapest to operate.
