Yeah was a good night, good to meet some new face, yotis and rodney and the fyn33 ;)

Awsome turnout...

That security van the first time was like something out of an old scooby doo episode... When it was first coming over the hill I thought it was a spaceship here to beam us up... :)

LOL.. geez you guys/grl(s?) are dedicated, I had to leave earlier coz had to wake up at 5ish :)

Willo. dude.. the offer still stands if you want to swap your GTR for mine... :)

Nice meeting you too smoothline and the rest of you (sorry.. I dont have a very good memory in remembering names.. hehe )

It was a good night thanks all, now.. only if I followed someone that drives the same speed or slower than me , that also knows where we were heading that would complete the night for me.. hehe :)

Nice ceffy squizz, had a quick browse of your car... at the servo.. nice ;)

Cyas all next time :rofl:

good night guys,

 

had to leave early but it was fun up to then though, especially the highway racing (the totally private highway that is in my backyard).

lol, i didnt know we were racing the first time, i looked over to yell out where we wer going, then i heard your turbo spool so I gunned it... in 5th :)

Next couple were a bit of fun... I lifted off in one of them cos I didnt think you were going to race... then you did! You bastard! lol

All in good fun... I was pretty happy I kept up with the 34 in the last couple...

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
