Today was like a pretty mad day skylines eevrywhere! :P Spotted a black 32 gts-t in a car park on northbourne and then about 2 buildings down a red 33 with a pretty big wing, couldnt really see it though...

A red 33 with no wing driving through that strip inbetween sanity and the canberra centre today at 1:15 pretty loud exhaust..

Then about 2 mins later after i crossed the road a white 33 turning past the SAP building.

Then when i got to civic pool (it was a bit hot until it started raining) spotted a gun metal 33 gts-t25t HMS sticker on the rear window and a red 32 silhouette with 32 skyline club on the back window, both parked across from the australian maritime safety authority in the car park there. There was also a very tidy silver 33gt with stock rims very nice :D:) (further down in da same car park seen it as we were leaving).

Then da last one for today was a black 33 white white rims, skyline performance sticker on the back, very nice *drools*

And of coarse heaps of skylines at Integra Automotive including urs Nik :D:D

Umm...if the stock silver gtst was parked across the road from the convention centre, that would be mine. I work in the building behind AMSA at the moment so it's been in that carpark for a week or so - just hanging out for the monthly parking ticket to expire so I can start parking in the undercover joint across the road....

hey sprinterboy, is manuka 24hrs then? I was looking for somewhere a while back but couldn't find anywhere... Woolies closes too early cos I finish work at midnight.

spotted just then (about 8.30pm) a red R33, looked just like mine :(

Number plate was YCY *** and they were going past KFC Fyshwick, if you're on here I was the dickhead behind you at the lights, with one headlight, I turned off into Quix..

Also spotted a white R33 series 1 about the same time, going the other way towards Fyshwick.

    • This. A 3d wheel alignment is like $120...just take it to the shop. Since theres probably multiple adjustments that need to be made after changing something. Mine has front/rear lower arms, traction rods, tension rods, camber arms, toe arms, front upper arms, hicas kit, sway bars and coilovers. I measure from the edge of the bolt holes on the originals and set the same length on all the adjustable stuff to dial it as close as I could to OEM. Took it straight for alignment; it didnt feel right at all...after alignment, it feels perfect. Similarly i've just changed the springs on another car; and I still needed multiple adjustments to bring it back in spec.
    • A full Veilside kitted JZA80 Supra in Meriken park in Kobe city a few weeks back
    • Its a well known brand in New Zealand; its a rebrand of the Rhino RAV3.  I don't know what the wiring difference *is* between the rev.1 (installed about 15 years ago) and rev.2; but as you say I would think its reasonable that it uses the same immobiliser relay circuits. I had a look but couldnt see a similar harness; but didnt move things around since I didnt want to mess with it   It was one of AVS well known Authorised Installers; I spoke to AVS themselves about it but theyre unsure hence seeking advice more so from the skyline community who are more familiar with the actual car and its wiring. Im in Auckland; but the installer is on the other side of the city so hes very reluctant to come back to even look at it to confirm something isnt connected into the wrong wire.  I dont want to drop the name since they *did* do a really good job for the most part. Everything is very tidy and he fully replaced all the alarm wiring, all the sensors, the wiring to the door motors, installed a switch which was never installed in the first place...really happy with the alarm install itself..just not this one issue. We all make mistakes, if it is the alarm, I just want my fuel pump getting proper switched, fused, power as it was; without having to shell out for an auto electrician to switch a wire and tell me it was the alarm. 
    • Even with the piston at TDC there was room for it to drop, but I don't think it can drop fully into the cylinder, the problem you have is that you need something pushing against the valve to hold it up so you have enough room to put the new stem seal on and the spring etc.  I used compressed air only because putting rope in the cylinder seemed a bit risky to me, I know people have done it countless times before like this. Overall it's a pain in the ass job. Honestly you'd probably be better off taking the head off because the risk of dropping something in the engine and the finicky-ness of it all is very stressful. If you are going to attempt it though i 10000% recommend a 36050 valve spring/keeper tool. I had both the traditional lever type and after doing 1 cylinder it was absolute pain to get those valve keepers in place, even with 2 people. That 36050 is amazing, you do have to push hard to get them in place but it works perfectly almost every time. Back to my actual issue I think my engine is just tired and old and the rings have gone bad. The comp numbers (cold, no oil) were: Cyl 1 -129psi Cyl 2 - 133psi Cyl 3 - 138psi Cyl 4 - 137psi Cyl 5 - 157psi Cyl 6 - 142psi   Cylinder 5 and 6 having the most carbon on them.
    • Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?
