Is yours a copy of the stock one or does it extend further back? (mines not stock - it goes back to the fire wall)

On the gtt i believe you need a gtr bar & lip to fit the diffuser...which then requires a gtr bonnet and front fenders - not really worth the effort.

I'm sure i've seen a gtt bolt on diffuser somewhere though..

Nah mine only extendeds to before the sump, it's pretty average...

Haha yeah think I'll do that :)

Thanks ant! Will do, not sure what I'm doing this weekendbut will let you know.

Could also add beer and music :D

Yeah I've seen a diffuser on a gtt altia body kit (my front bar) looked awesome!! But isn't worth the 1500 the guy said he paid for it haha.

Lol - just asking as I may buy another (sacrificial) one in the future. It's a little annoying when you drop something in the engine bay and it don't fall out the bottom.

Ha yep, makes it easy for servicing too, easy to clean the oil of the engine after it pouring out when removing the filter to ha

I think I still have a 10mm socket in my engine bay somewhere

Dropped it while working and didn't fall out the bottom, do you think I could find it? No chance

Oh Martin, I dropped a 10mm in my engine bay when I fixed my valve clearances. Took me so long to find but I refused not to find it cause every piece of that set is like a baby to me haha. Found it sitting under my turbo heat shield in-between the block and the turbo intake pipe. Took sooooo long to knock it out of there and into my face haha.

Hmm a happy worker isn't always an efficient worker huh? :)

If it is pouring rain, my driving ability will be limited... Picked the car up on low boost and E30 fuel and still getting wheelspin through to 3rd in the dry, I'm not looking forward to rain :P

Very nice result

Maybe have to start running semis or some KU36's on the rear

i normally do run them but had crap tyres on for the dyno and for the diff to bed it, but will get some RSR's or something very soon as its pretty useless.... Good for the lolz! :D BUT it also restricts me from being silly on the road and with the car being so nice to cruise in i am happy as it is..... Will show you guys :)

^Sounds good mate.

Weather looks like it could be improving, either way from the responses above, i think it will go ahead as planed rain or not (check this thread on sunday morning for updates, if theres nothing, than it will be on!), if the rain worries you, just bring another car and come have a chat, some food and beer!

Also, i will be bringing my DSLR along to grab some pics of the day, if you want some pics of your car just let me know on the day etc.. i have been playing around with photo editing abit lately so could use some extra images to play with :).

Cheers,and see you there.

Its times like these I wish I had my full licence so I could take the S15 out so you could take some cool pics.

A bit disapointed that the previous owner hasn't taken care of the paint better though. Notably There is a scratch on the front right quarter, stone chips on bonnet, scrapes on the front bumper (from not angling on driveways Im guessing), and scratches on the rear bumper from backing past a nail out of a fence (which gauged into the side of the rear bumper). It also has tree sap damage on bonnet and bootlid.

Polished it and waxed it for 4 hours the other day...still lots of grime on the paint thats yet to come off. Also unbolted the plastic front wheel arch linings, and got a buildup of mud/grime out from between the front quarter and the sill. Luckily there was no rust, but got all the stuff out then hosed it out to remove all the crap.

I can get you a driver for the S15 if you want.... He is actually an S15 driver anyway but some fool P plater slammed into him so its in the panel shop for another 6 weeks!

    • 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).
