It is certainly better than on the stock pump but at redline I am getting up to 95% duty cycle but this is with AFR of 10.5 so not too worried about that.

I agree, nothing to worry about. Rich AFR & still duty cycle to spare so headroom for more performance. Nice one.

called bearepairs

basically as follows:

him:"we don't touch the tierode ends to do an alignment"

me: "but you said you inspected everything under it"

"oh yeah, wanna bring it in and check it all again"

"yeah"

(slightly summarised)

fingers crossed they don't jew it up this time, heading up to the boat this arvo

so keep an eye out of me between melbourne and the gold coast

Took the car to Nizfest on the weekend - a club day at Hampton Downs - Z club, Primera club and my club: Skylines Downunder - which has a Stagea section. Didn't take part in the show and shine or Gymkhana but had a track session. The new RB30 setup is not fully sorted yet (will post up details and charts when it is) but still fast enough to beat some of the GTRs (R33 and 34 that is, not the new GTRs) but eventually ended in a cloud of smoke. Will be engine out job to fix some oil control issues (smaller restrictors, head drain, sump breather). But getting there slowly!

yeah queensland is the same, and quite obviously we pay a premium for them

Yeah it's weird.

Up to 5 letters, and minimum 1 number, and you pay a once off fee, around $70 last time I did it.

6-7 letters is a different class, and you have to pay per year. Used to be $300-400 per year.

Started fitting the Transgo shift kit to the M35 today.

While the car was on the hoist I noticed the drivers side front drive shaft has split the inner boot. How much are people paying for the new boot and is it a DIY job to fit the boot?

Yep on my mates hoist. Shift kit is all fitted, just ran out of time so will refit the valve body tomorrow and test drive.

So not too bad a job then? Got to do mine soon.

All going to plan so far, just take your time and double check everything. It was good having a mate check every step with me. If you have GOOD mechanical skills it shouldn't be a problem to do yourself.

I paid $125 to get a work shop to do mine in Sydney.

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      By Shoota_77 · Posted

      Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!

      Living With An R33 Gtst

      End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall

      A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
