1995 Silver Manual Coupe R33 GTST Series 2 Pushing 220 RWKW nice 18's on her and most importantly RWC. I think he might need to change that airbox for RWC. We'll see. He's an SAU member as well, saw this thread and contacted me. Not worried about the slight front bar damage for now, guy just had it resprayed before it got done in car park or some such.

Haha my knowledge is also not awesome but my understanding is that it's called a front strut brace and it is put there to stop flexing andprovide rigidity between the two suspension strut towers. This improves handling, reduces tire wear and reduces metal fatigue.

Basically the handling feels more precise and responsive.

Funny it's the fanciest looking thing on the car isn't it haha. Some people actually install them just for the tuner look.

right, thanks that makes sense and knowledge has increased +1!

that's awesome because I like the look of it (i love metallic blue) and also it actually serves a purpose! will look at getting one ahahhahah

a civic........HAHA.

shopping for a 34 though.

Yeah I noticed some of your posts, I was looking for an R34 but it wasn't worth the price difference IMO. I'll get an R34 when I can afford a GTR

I hope it doesnt have airbags after seeing the cooler piping :whistling:

Ok ok you got my attention, obviously as a series 2 you know it has dual airbags. Spill it, what do you know. WHAT DO YOU KNOW~!!!! lol

Cut hole in the battery tray is defective and being a model with airbags it can't be engineered I'm pretty sure. Uv bought it with rwc so just be careful not to get done :ninja: . Good luck, car looks alright though.

Wellll I haven't fully bought it yet. Have paid $500 deposit and signed a contract to buy it with a RWC. how can I get done for anything if it has RWC? or will RWC address this issue? Can't you get a flange to reinforce the hole and that makes it legal? If It has a RWC do you think I get to get it mechanically inspected pre purchase style?

It's tuned to 15PSI but no wideband should I get a wideband ASAP?

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
