Hey Guys,

I have been on the forums for a while and had planned on saying hi earlier but have been a bit bipolar as to whether I was selling or keeping my 95 R33 GTR VSPEC.

My car is pretty standard save for a set of -7's and an upcoming PFC/EBC install.

I plan on keeping things pretty simple with the car, keeping it fairly stock and clean (as clean as I can)

Anyway if you guys are planning a cruise or a brew (I am in Merewether) let me know.

Cheers,

Dean

sounds good man.

we do need another piss up... maybe after the track day next week :)

Yep we all need to catch up as its been a while!

Welcome in mate, clean white skylines FTW!

yea we do need to organise some drinks again...

any ideas for dates or venues? maybe something like we did ages ago, and meet up somewhere for a beer and a feed, and maybe a small cruise or something???

I've gotta get moved etc which will take me out for the next few weeks.... PLUS the gearbox has to come out of my car after the track day too so ill have to see how we go time wise, ideally for us it would be around 17/11 or somewhere like that...

sounds good around that time.

might be working, well see

We have two weeks off to set up the house etc (Was the time of for SAU NATS but no kesh for that with the new house)...

Did someone say drinks?

Any weekend but the 17/11 is good

Ill be in Port Macquarie with wifey that weekend

What's wrong with gearbox Matt? You broken something again?

Jarred should be an expert at house stuff by now

Nice 33 as well, I'll keep an eye out for it

Just over a month till my blacks. Cannot wait to start driving the thing. Hopefully ill have it all complete by then!

The car is meant to be finished getting paint repairs next week.

As soon as its out, its getting booked in for:

- Cat welded in

- Flanged Screamer Pipe

- Varex Muffler

- New intake pipe to airbox & new hotside cooler pipe

- Few gauges wired up

And if I have enough left over

17x9 +22 Enkei RPF1 wrapped in Federal 595 255/40r17 :D

Also anyone got any recommendations for the pipe work I need done? (local business around newcastle)

- Weld in the cat

- Make a new diff back exhaust pipe to go to the varex / basic fitting of the muffler

- Cut the plumback and add flanges + a new little screamer pipe

- Hotside cooler pipe (to hole in body)

- Turbo > airbox pipe

Also the wiring of the varex & three gauges (water temp/ oil temp/ oil press).

One person ive asked can do it all for about $1000. Does that seem reasonable?

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
