I have 6 of them - 3 for the Gtst's and variants (GTT's etc) and 2 for R32 and R33 GTR's - they are great, but you need an interpretor for the text as its all in japanese.

Christian.

I bought em for 300 Yen each, got most of the 32 n 33 ones, and I've translated half of em... now if only I can get around to puttin em onto a website. Registered www.japimports.info, but need hosting :thumbsup:

I'm waiting for my latest purchase to come thru... RB20 and RB25 DET ECU reprogramming guide + ECU Maps. mmmm where my eeprom programmer at?

Ahh wish I had more time to translate all of em... my god... Bought the last one for the tuning guide more than anything.

Next up on my to buy list are the R32 Series 2 and R33 Series 1 service manuals, that's worth about $200 in japan and they're about 2cm thick.

Rob you can borrow mine if you wanna have a read

oh and has anyone else noticed that after you read a few of these books, you start reading english books formt he back as well? My mates have busted me doing this and its quite embarrasing.

here's a sample of my lil collection...

My most prized book, the RB20/RB25 ECU tuning Guide

And the version for GTSt's n stuff that I have

I tried in the DIY section with My R32 classification guide, but you really need to layout pictures n stuff, there's only so much you can do in a thread format.

I don't mind building it as part of the SAU website (I guess I could con PranK into givin me some webspace, adn then I can design a proper thing.

For example...

scan_10077.jpg

This page is part of a dummies guide to Engine parts in an RB26 and what can be achieved by replacing each part with aftermarket parts etc.

It's just a bit of a hassle to put it in a thread based form rather than a table format illustration.

Rest assured I will put it all up once its sufficiently translated, just takes time (esp since my Kanji skills aren't too good and have to rely on my GF to do most of the complex words and she ain't too thrilled when I pull out car mags when she's tryin to spend quality time :( ).

np rob i'll bring a revspeed around for ya to flick thru at the meeting. You'll have to be careful tho, most of my mags have the staples taken out so I can scan em :D

prankeh, email sent...

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • 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.
