It was a white R33 & it was in at a panel beaters.

Yeh mate, that would be mine. Was neat as, had a little dingle and will be back very soon. keep getting stuffed round by import wreckers and freight companies but all the parts have now arrived so wont be long. Few of the guys saw you going round, said your car was pretty nice. Unfortunately i missed it. What mods u got? any pics?

Not to many mods, 3.5" turbo back exhaust, K&N panel filter, Daul stage B/C, GFB Hybrid B/O valve & Front mount I/C. Gets along pretty well though.

Hopefully there's a pic attached if I've done it right.

Cant say I've ever attached a pic! haha. got any on a website?

SIKMR2 isnt an import, just the aus release. So its non turbo, but i spose it goes ok, nothing special though. But yeh, done up to be a show car, full veilside kit, full leather retrim, 18's, pretty decent stez. If u want a closer look at SNIPER just go into speedy Tires and ask for Jimmy, he's a top bloke and I'm sure he wouldnt mind having a look at yours.

Let us know next time you come to launy.

zsky, there are at least two 4 door R33's I have seen, one I wanted to buy in launnie a couple of months back, black with a bodykit and one down here which is dark grey, but it's a GTS4 manual and looks sweet. Sorry I didn't buy your car buddy, really wanted a manual.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
