Hey guys and girls, thought I'd just introduce myself.

My name is Michael (username is Mitz), long time reader on this forum and have been a skyline lover for as long as I can remember.

Hope to have to some good chats with you in the near future and maybe join the club ;)

Oh and before I forget I am the owner of a "Black on black" R33 GTSt :thumbsup: currently making 254 RWKW

Cheers.

Thanks buddy, same goes for your car !

She's got a whole new rebuilt engine, internals etc etc with a HKS GTRS turbo running 18psi on high boost. Tuned by unigroup. Sorry for the lack of detail I'm on the iPhone haha. If you want I'll PM you the full details later :)

Yeah. always interested in skylines :D And do yourself a favour and join up SAU NSW mate, for the money its more than worth it! There is a Texi day coming up soon and if you like skids or just want to test your skills then bring it along, you'll meet plenty of friendly people at these days and they are really well run!

Not sure if you have seen the SAU NATS in November etc too? And the cruises coming up! Plenty to keep you entertained!

beautiful thing mate, black on black suits it too well - too many guys opting for the easier-to-maintain white nowadays. must catch a photo next to yours at a meet one day

I think there is a NSW introduction section too mate, one of the mods might move the thread there for ya if needed!

Keen to know more about your setup tho!

cpd - haha that plate was put on by the previous owner.

34GeeTeeTee - I'm definately thinking about it mate, would be great to go on the track and meet some fellow SAU'ers !

squareznboxez - haha thanks man I've always loved the look of black on black and because it's a look that's not as common on skylines. And yours looks so mean ! Definately getting a photo together mate

Should go, its cheap and a whole lot of fun.... I went to my first one last time, car sucked badly with teething problems and was retired pretty much after the first run.... But i smiled all day anyway :yes:

    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
    • lights are on just the one click.  
    • Absolutely matters because, while a temperature change will eventually reach a sensor at the end of a static line, the response time is far far far too slow to be useful. Might as well not have a temp gauge at all.
    • When I was eyeing off the 370GT (after deciding I didn't want to spend 30-40k+ to relive my early 20s in an R33) I thought it'd be a good project to add a turbo to it. Now that I have a 370GT, and I've had a couple of chances to open it up, I'm pretty stunned by how much power it makes 🫠 Honestly, the way the VVEL opens it up, it almost feels like there's a little turbo tucked away in there somewhere. It's like Nissan looked at VTEC and said "hold my beer" 😁 Has anyone thrown a turbo into their 370Z or 370GT? Is there a conservative boost level you can run without having to upgrade the fuel system, or are bigger injectors and a bigger pump a given?
