i was just wondering if anyone was in the hills friday night! somewhere along the route ns.com usually takes on their cruises! a r33 passed us when we stopped for a breather! i was in my mates r32 gtst and we were with 2 other cars! a starlet and 180sx!

think that was us, 5 of us went on a mini cruise up freeway and on egale on the hill round 12-1ish last nite...nothing crazy just took it easy.

Saw a mini cruise last night on greenhill road.

Black R34 GT-T, blue S14, blue Sil1580, white R32 and a yellow FD.

They all looked great and sounded awesome =D

wat time was that, cos we drove on greenhill 4 a bit as we headed 4 the freeway...me, yellow 34, blue s14 and a silver HSV GTO.

That is unless some knob in his r32/r33 or silvia comes up next to me saying 'look i have a blow off valve psssht psssht'. The majority who do this are P platers but. :rofl:

*joke* I'm not silly with the bubs in the car. Not silly even without the bubs in the car, might give it a little squirt to the speed limit but thats it. I actually worry too much speeding, freaks me out when I see ppls fly past me doing an easy 20km's over the speed limit. How things have changed.

and no I don't really have a recaro baby seat. I settled on a Safe n' Sound Compaq. Awesome little seat. :D

Spotted Vange just about everywhere. Firstly around 7-9pm heading into town from North Adelaide (O'Connel Street). Then through town, then on the way home at about 12:45am or thereabouts along Goodwood road (well the car was :D) parked.

Also spotted 2x R32 Silver GTR's along O'Connel street pulling into either 1) Bilo or 2) Booze Brothers. One R33 with Neons & LED's (Purple neons). Then about 10 X R33's throughout the night.

At footy spotted once clean Marone R32 GTS't with stock GTR rims. Looked very straight and nice!

Yeh, that would have been me lol. Have three of the four rear lights working (all four work when breaking, so one element not working). But looked back and realised i could see someone in the car :) And no....i didn't see you do anything bad :P lol

How else are you ment to get those remaining droplets off the bonnet & boot :P:), the blow dryers at the car wash dont do such a great job.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
