Hi all,

I was looking to buy a performance chip for my GTSt R33, that's how i stumbled across this very cheap mod on ebay. It looks very cool if it could perform like it says it can. This the search name and URL..

Nissan R33 RB25DET Stage 3 performance chip eprom !!!

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Nissan-R33-RB25DET-...id=p3286.c0.m14

However normally when something seems a bit dodgy and too good to be true generally normally is! LOL

So the question is, has anyone tried this or anything like it? If so, could they please let me know of dangers it may cause and or if it's ok to do?

Or even if you may have another solution i could try to get something similar.

Kind Regards TL

& Thanks for your help in advance

man...sounds dodge.... a standard gtst does not rev to 8500....

plus all the soldiering in rubbish... engine lights showing up... tachos not working....

can end up costing alot more then what you paid for it for nothing...

also if you have a 33 gota get a 32 ecu... i bet there will be problems with that too....

save the pennys instead :D

sorry but i can't add anything constructive.

Out of interest, do they offer a stage 1 and stage 2 chip? Or are they just offering a stage 3 assuming that people see stage 3 and go OMGWTFBBQ stage 3 chip!!11!11!!! must be hektik!

Seriously, stay well the f**k away from that rubbish. If you really want to spend money on useless crap i have a hair dryer with 3076 written on it for the bargain price of $18.95...

      Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
