Restriction is the turbo exhaust housing I believe...

3" JJR Stainless Bellmouth Dump/Front pipe

3" Highflow cat, which isn't even a 100 cell, I think its 200 or 300?

and it was pretty much a straight though system with the Kaki R (2 mufflers)

You gonna come to the ethanol side anytime soon? Keeps the backside nice and clean :)

Nein... I do too many km's to be even more inconvenienced by needing to be picky about which servo I can go to... Would need to swap turbo to get the most out of the extra power as well...

You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

I only gained 20rwkw up top because of my small turbo, but in some parts of the midrange I gained 40rwkw. Plenty of Uniteds around; there's one 5 mins from where we live (near Alvin) and a 24 hour one off Eastlink in Scoresby. So worth it!

Come on Scotty gimme backup...

You just can't tell some people.

If Simon wants to be different and run Dinofuel who are we to single him out? He will come around one day, probably just after his ring lands go. :P

just too mut f**king around to go etOH,

so i'll stick with dino fuel.

most importantly without a proper jerb, no budget here.

If you've already got a tuned 98 with safe supporting mods, it's as simple as a tune. I don't even have a wideband. For the extra $500 or whatever your tuner charges, worth it to have an ethanol tune stored on a laptop should you want extra power for a given time period. I keep laptop in my car...if I don't have an ethanol station in sight, just go to a place with 98 and switch to 98 tune. Simples.

What do you hate about it? I think it's amazing someone could live like an absolute king in Hanoi. $450/week apartment in Melbourne is about $300 a month there. Get a small passive income and you're set for life. My only complaint was no chocolate milk, and no milk in general. Damn lactose intolerant Asians.

the general attitute of the locals.

DUe to working there for significant periods of time I got to know some.

they sit around with beers on a Friday discussing who F%$ded over the tourist the most as a joke.

only place I have been robbed

and then the hygiene, middle of town, watched lady carry baby into the street, hold it above the gutter so it could "go potty" then bring it back inside.

and the gourmet cooking:

So yes can live cheap, but a life I don;t want, where for less money I could be in Laos that was much better, or a little more gets you thailand.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
