Today ( Wednesday ) spotted a nice silver R33 series 2 with nice wheels and some sort of odd looking restrictor in the exhaust, and two tail lights that didn't work. Was on drakeford drive at about 8:20am.

Blue R34 GTR on Cotter road, then adelaide av. at about 8:35am.. Very Nice!!

spotted i think a red r31 that looked like blueprints but i was off in lala land and didnt realise till i saw its rear

Wasn't me, I haven't driven my car since Sunday

Might have been R31DET

Spotted, or rather listened to, something definetly RB25DET powered sitting on around 7 grand for a good 30 seconds sounding rather angry and unloading a lot of fuel in the process

Not surprisingly, I could also hear the distinct sound of traction loss... so who's been doing burnouts in Weston? :(

And why wasn't I notified so I could come & film it..... tsk tsk....

Saw a wine red 32 with PANADL numberplates at Autobarn in belco not long ago

That was me :( I work there, I park in the car park cause I can't get it up the gutter across the road lol.

Spotted yesterday two maroon R32's, one with NSW plates "HCR32R", 17" Momo wheels, FMIC but was an auto, and a GTR with some awesome darker rims.

Thanks for the heads up on the taillights, but the wierd thing is they were all working when I checked them tonite. Maybe it was a couple of brake lights that were out, just replaced em all anyway.

The odd looking restrictor thing in the cannon has been there since the new exhaust went on last week, haven't had a chance to rip it out yet. Not sure if I am in a big hurry to pull it out anyways, given that the car currently spends it's days in a certain carpark at Weston.....

When me, Steve, James & Luke were all drooling over it in the metal right in front of our very eyes, it had a T51R. Ok? ;)

Yeah Glen, the guy that had it before took the RB26 out and put it into another car.

Rumour has it that the RB20 that's in it now is packing about 260kw @ the wheels.....

it was there to get lowered, it's stock height at the moment

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
