My mate just called me up to tell me he saw a genuine Vspec 2 NUR in bayside blue. Bronze 18" TE37's. He creamed his pants, and woke me up :D. Plates were something like NUR-66R?

Ive passed that car parked on the side of the road in newtown - awesome looking beast it is.

here's what i've seen in the last several days. white 33  gjr007 rhodes coporate park. black 34 castle hill rd 5.45pm  

sat.  

yellow 32 george st 9.50pm white 33 george st 1.30am grey 33 s2 ab67ju   green p's 2.30am  

george st  white 33 george st 3.00am white 33 george st 3.05(same car?!?!?!?!) burgundy 33 3.10am george st silver 32 3.15am george st yellow 32 3.35am george st  & light blue 33 zamazu parramtta rd 3.45am

as much as I hate to admit being on george street at that hour..it was quite possibly me at about 1.30am

I was following a 180 who had no idea where he was going!

Saw a few lines on the way to work this morning:

*Spotted "SXYSKY" Silver R33 GTST on Fitzwilliam Road, Toongabbie

*Spotted Gunmetal Grey R32 GTR turning right off Victoria Rd, Rydalmere (APU? - not sure on the plates) - seen it a few times in the last couple of weeks.

*Spotted a blue R32 GTS4 turning off Windsor Rd onto James Ruse Drive (didn't get the plates)

Thats the one i've seen parked in front of powerplay imports , not sure if its a genuine "nur-spec ".

There is another bayside blue withe rego plates "NUR" and V-specII nur badge at the rear , iknow thats not a genuine "nur", i have seen under the bonnet of that one .

Yes that car is a Genuine Nur :rofl:

Spotted a sexy dark grey 33 gtst s2 going sideways out of castle hill maccas just a few minutes ago!

Then I spotted a white 33 gtst s2 and the same dark grey 33 playing silly buggers for a tiny bit down castle hill road... hehehe

I saw them, the grey 33 driver I couldnt see looked inside but it was all black, and the white 33 driver looked like he was 12 :confused:

spotted a white 33 s2 in St Leonards this morning, he gave me a flash as I went by...and it wasn't Sam!

BTW..Sam? where are ya buddy? I miss ya!

I saw that white 33 S2 (I think), Some asian was in it, I was on falcon st. going away from the hwy. Around 9AM

nah, wasn't the same one. That's Sam (SAWAKITA)... this one was about 8:40 in St Leonards and don't think the driver was Asian.

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
