mate thats one tidy car, nice buy mate, hows it feel to drive and own a skyline :woot:

soooo much better then the mx-5 i drove for 3 and a half years before it :D

nah i cant knock the little bugger, was such a fun car to drive (all handling/suspension mods).. just, it had the torque of a $29 battery drill. still i loved the go kart feel of it, and being able to smash it through corners at twice the speed limit.

needless to say, after getting the skyline to look how i want it to, the first purchase will be coilovers!

hey man, ahhh yer lol guess the weight on the mx-5 would have made it a nible car and nice around corners, but hey like you said the r33 has much more torque and will be fun to once you make it how you like :banana: ahh, yer good choice with the collies man.. enjoy the car

haha so true bubba so true!

Here's an example.. my turbo upgrade (high mount GT35R, foward facing plenum, GTR cooler/piping/bov's), blew out with a High Energy sump and head off to put oil restrictors in. On the weekend we decided that because the engine is coming out and will be mostly apart.. might aswell throw some spool rods, longnose crank snout and ATI balancer and get it all balanced.. NEVER ENDING SAGA :D

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
