Yes that was me :(, your 33 looked awesome, knew you had some serious work done she was lumpin like crazy on idle :)

Ah! So you are a fellow SAU'er, cool :domokun: Thanks mate. It's pretty tame from the outside - just the way I like it. Yeah the HKS cams give it just enough 'attitude'. Your beast looks very tidy too and it doesn't have quite as many problems getting the power down in those wet conditions either.

Ahh top stuff Matt. Good to see it back on the road.

Hows's the big trust spool? Its definitely came a LONG way since the old days when it was making a shade over 200rwkw. :)

G'day Joel. Yes back on the road mate. It's only temporary unfortunately, back to the workshop for more playing with the turbo set-up as soon as Autosalon is over. I'm hoping it will be completed (for this round of mod's) in 1-2 months.

Well, it's got potential I'll give it that. It looks like being too big on the exhaust side - currently a Turbonetics T3 Stage V (biggest they offer in that range and larger than the equivalent GT3540R combo'). The plan is to go down one size (Stage III - no stage IV ???) and this should give us the top end power with better response, I hope. We're going to switch to a new Tial EWG too.

On the positive side there already appears to be another 30rwkw (on top of the ~290) in the compressor (more boost) cam timing and tuning once the exhaust combo' is sorted. I'll be happy with ~320rwkw peak power and a useable rev' range of ~4000ish rpm (~3000 - ~7000) anything over 320 will be a bonus. Martini 110 will also be trialed to see how much extra it's got in it until the head runs out of flow.

It's changed a little bit since those early days :rofl:

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
