mohsen, you can make a 33 taxi look goods....

surprisingly I'd have to agree. Even though I'm not a fan of taxis... Or red.

Gtr front bar Is a good addition however

would fkn hit

I am a massive R32 sedan addict (I have 3) but I have to say R33 series 2 sedans are pimpalicious.

In other news I cleaned AAC, AFM, Air Regulator, replaced vacuum lines, removed horrific boost gauge vacuum lines, replaced PCV hoses that were rooted, reset ECU.. and now the RB20 is running like a dream :D. One of those things you kick yourself for not doing sooner.

Want to do mine?

applications for that snr mgr position closed yesterday

time will tell

Good luck, let us know how you go.

if the dude selling the pfc in the vic section is legit, it's a steal. $600 for pfc (no controller) with 4 33 stockies with tires..

cheap cheap

Where? Wouldn't mind 'collecting' parts now...

Hamish that looks sick!!

Went to a few dealers today, one of which ha a black s1 r33, manual.

My car + 1k. ThInking about going it...

Gives me something with hotplates to drive on the cruisee..

Right sides been keyed though

Ooooooh, I want to do that same thing to my skyline. What kind of difference did it make? How long did it take to do? Did the hoses etc cost much? Sorry for the rude questions, just curious.

cleaned AAC - guide in DIY is very good and time estimate a bit longer than it took me.

AFM - I'm tossing up doing this -> http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/113284-fixing-your-rb26-afms/page__hl__afm just for kicks, but a lot of work and the possibility of stuffing up water proofing. I just sprayed it down with MAF. Everyone should do this.

Air Regulator - DIY Guide makes it sound tough, piece of piss really, mine wasn't bad though.. I suspect this only really needs to be done if you suddenly get issues with high idle.

replaced vacuum lines - I didn't do the preshaped wide stuff as that was all in good shape, I only did the narrow 1.5ish mm lines.. 10 minutes work. My lines were all cracking. Made a _Massive_ difference and I suspect was the reason for the stalls. Car is still relearning tune and auto shift points after this and just keeps getting better. Everyone should do this.

removed horrific boost gauge vacuum lines - ya. who would have thought just pushing the line inside a t piece with no effort to seal it would cause problems.. really wished I had noticed this before :).

replaced PCV hoses - Nissan wanted 40 bucks for the line I needed, stuff that.. transmission hose from pirtek fit perfectly and cost me nothing cause it was lying around... I think it would have been worth over 1 dollar if I bought it :P.

reset ECU - complete waste of time unless you want to go through the relearn process or need to for something like idle fiddling.

Should also mention, I read somewhere during my trawling for servicing info, a note about always spraying nissan plugs with MAF cleaner if you unplug them.. I have started doing this and it seems to be a very good idea. I think a few plugs were pretty flaky such as into the back of the AAC.

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
