spotted yesterday arvo across the road from the beaches... a stock as lexus is200.... stock height, stock rims, but 3 guys looking under the bonnet... all i could see was polished bits and blue silicon hoses and a massive turbo... it has new style yellow plates... watch out for this one fellas... looks nuts.

Spotted white R32 going through Cardiff Round-a-about at about 6:30 last night, and also keep spotting the stock-looking Maroon R33 with plates JE33SS (or similar) Chick drives it :)

And thought I might ask, there's usually a dark blue R34 parked out the front of Cardiff Toyota/Subaru/Mazda etc and a Silver R33 also.

My mate knows the guy that owns that car. Its got 450HP at the wheels. He is going for more, should be putting out over 500 soon

Followed a Silver R32 2dr with no wing at about 6:30 from about the airport tonight. Unfortunately he boosted off once the double lanes came and didnt see him again after that.

Spotted a white R33 gtst with what looked like a 400R front bar?? Was following you from the Ourimbah freeway exit past the shell and down Enterprise Drive. I was in a silver Rav4 behind you :P

think you have to pm him for that one... i rememeber when he first started... he wanted serious customers only... so he didnt have piss jerkers hanging around all the time.. not sure if everyone knows it now or he still keeps it a secret.

cheers

its no real secret..my mate has a 5 bay shed at Whitebridge...1 bay strictly for engine work and plenty of room for a couple of race cars (our drag car and circuit car). Its not a full time operation...more like a hobby...but its decked out will all the tools and parts we need. We are looking into a full time set-up...but unfortunately not in Newcastle because the money's not here to make it viable.

    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
    • thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...
    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
