Staying blue , the door jams are blue and i cbf painting all of it :) . I swapped another 25 turbo on it today , it has the same bloody noise , so im just going to register it and change the whole induction setup , im putting all the goodies from the cefiro on it so it should see Atleast 250rwk , might even go for a ethanol setup since it will be used on the track mainly . I also put new coilovers in and bought some 33 gtr rims which i plan on using instead of the buddy clubs :) . Now i just need to pick up a bonnet and she will be ready for rego!

No luck fixing the turbo , started it with just the housing on and it was noisy , took the housing off and it was all good , put the other housing i had spare on with no piping all good , put the piping back on and the noise was back . So i won't be making the drift practice in a fortnight , rego next week then td06 etc may aswell go on and see if that fixes it! . Also tried to put some subframe bushes in but someone has over tightened the nuts that hold it up , with all the proper stuff i still managed to round the nut off so i gave up for the afternoon! . Another point of interest for me was , whilst it was on the hoist i noticed it had excessive movement in the right rear wheel , but im not looking into it until Friday 13 is over!.

Yeah i still haven't worked out the image thing , you're quite welcome to explain lol

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
