G'day,

Well i've had my R31 for many years and its time to upgrade. I'm looking at getting an R33 Gts-t (as close to stock as possible) BUT before i go ahead with this i just want to check that the front end won't scrape the ground when entering my driveway.

I'm hoping someone can come check this for me? I live near the essendon train station and will be eternally grateful. I think it will be ok but want to make sure before i lash out 10-12k! I don't wanna park my baby on the street!

Let me know if you can assist me PLEASE. Appreciate any feedback/help.

Cheers!

PS: Sorry, i also posted this on another forum but the Victoria section seems more suitable.

If youre after a stocker, theyre actually fairly high, in my understanding...should clear most driveways. Unfortunately cant help as the GTR is set lower stock anyways, but you should be able to drive it up...even if it seems too low, if u come in on an angle u will be fine.

I'm willing to do it but I live a bit far, and with petrol prices prob better off finding someone nearer but if you cant find anyone else to do it give me a shout

Edit: Maybe take a photo of your drive way? I know it's not the best way but maybe some drivers can tell you what they think

Thanks for the tips.

Kamikaze, I saw a stock one today and you're right, they're pretty high.

And racin8 I can't really do this it's a shared driveway with about 10 other townhouses.

James K i'll take a photo and post it up later and see if i get any feedback.

It's just a steep descent and then levels out.

Anyway, see how i go. Thanks again for your help.

SAU rocks!

My car hates driveways. You should see my lip :rolleyes:

its not the car hating driveways...you just need to learn how to approach a driveway hahahahahahaha

sorry mate id help but got a 34. oh and its also fairly low lol

Its not getting in...its getting out nose first on a slope with cars up ur ass behind u unwilling to move so u can back up and try again....driveways here for shopping centres and stuff are harsh man. I LOVE melbourne for how easy all your shops and such are to get in and out of. i struggle with some of them here in ballarat...in my stock N16.

lol i dont care whose behind me. ill go as slow as i want with as much angle as i have to to get out of a driveway. theres been cases where iv taken up a whole entrance hahaha. cause if the car gets damaged you have to live with it and pay for it to get repaired not the ones behind you. so ye i take my time and get in right lol

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
