no. and thats from a Qld point of view.

I dare say the first time you getr pulled over in it the thing will get a canary. if you are looking at buying it - don't unless it is engineered.

remove:

ecu

external gate

BOV

Fix exhaust (i have no doubt its too noisy)

And no doubt need the factory airbox fitted.

cooler perhaps, depends how its been mounted

If the EMS computer is a full wire-in, you are basically stuffed. Don't buy the car. More stuffing around that it'll be worth.

Do any of you guys know this car?

I just spoke to one of the guys from Pro-Tek that did all the work on the carand let’s just say there was an odd story to go with it all and I don’t reallywant to flame anyone, just want some background info.

There are 1,000's of R33's around dude :)

Especially from Bendigo, that's not Melb or anywhere near by to the general populace. You'd need someone from Bendigo, there are not many that use SAU i know of.

Either way it's not exactly a subtle modded one. Simple things that attract attention - that car has it. Especially a BOV in plain sight like that :(

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
