Spotted JD this morning in the V Spec... You drove past me but don't think you recognized the new daily driver.

I thought that was you in the white sedan and was nearly going to lean on the horn, but there was a commodore between us which may have been a bogan transporter, so I didn't. :P

So, what is this new beast? I didn't get a good look.

Spotted 2 guys on the manaro heading fyshwick way, one in a white commo ute, and the other was some chrysler suv thing, seemed like they were racing.... they were weaving in and of cars and using the side walls, was crazy, they were prob going over 150 in the 80 zone. Very fishy.....

Haha, i did notice the possible bogan transporter... You would have been stuck at the lights with them getting out of the car.....

The new beast is a '93 Subaru Liberty Heritage Auto.. Ruff on the outside but drives smooth as. I needed something that would allow me to park in Civic and manuka without worry of theft etc.. As in, I'd still be highly concerned about it being taken, but its better it than the 33.

wtf when I'm not in the 33, I see heaps of other skylines, but once I sit inside her, no1 is around to be seen >.<

Mustn't see others/be seen when I'm in my own little world...hahaha considering how often I'm on my way to Fyshwick every morning.

Haha that's what happens to me too. The audi gets spotted much more between here and CC than the GTR does :)

haha, what kinda wheels u got?

They looked like some kind of 5 spoke chromes from the distance I was at, assumed it may have been u coz I can't think of anyone else with a white 33, other than Reece (not turismo)

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
