was behind a black 33 last night but i can't remember where or exactly when... if you were infront of a white 33 sedan sometime last night in the area of gordon/condor then it was you!

Silver R33 GTR last night at the Indian place in Phillip i was eating at last night. Do GTR's always look high? he parked in front of my GTST and well, mine looked a ton lower.

stock they do because they have AWD to share the space under the guards as well.

I must have a special ability to attract local idiots!!!

For the hole drive up and back to the central coast i did not have any dramas with the drive; infact, the M7 is fantastic!

Well, that was before i got back into the ACT! About 1km before i get to epic i am confronted with a car travelling NORTH on the SOUTH bound side!!! I was overtaking another car at the time so i had to floor it to get out of their way. No amount of horn bashing or flashing made any difference. They finally got the message when a truck that was still in the right lane refused to get out of the way, so the car finally pulled out of the way. Don't know what happed after that, but i really hope they figured out what the hell they were suposed to do.

Interesting thread but... it's kinda hard to imagine the exact car you "spotted" when you just say white R33 on so and so road.

Here's a couple of photo's I came up with for the Southside when I had some time to kill. I saw a couple of other cars driving but didn't manage to get a decent photo. As you can see R33's are harder to find and R34's near impossible. At least one member should recognise their car.

probably should blank out peoples licence plates if you're going to post photo's

Went to the coast yesterday, passed a few skylines on the way down, one of them gave me a wave. a maroon R33 was with me a fair amount of the trip back today, had a big amount of panel damage on the passenger side.

ffs a20089 please blank out the plates of those cars. also please consider that not everyone wants photos of their cars taken while they are parked. it's not just skyline owners who frequent this forum and you don't know if those cars are regularly parked in those areas.

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
