How much does a tune usually cost? I have a friend who gets his R33 and evo tuned tuned by his friend, evo tuned to e85 aswell but wondering the downsides/risks of road tune vs workshop tune? I mean if this guy trusts his car with him he must be alright?

off topic what do I need to run e85?

Northcote and generally drop by monthly meets. Don't stress about track days, some minor things already discussed. Your first few times are more about getting you sorted than worrying about the car. I had full length cotton clothing helmet, extinguisher and borrowed some blue duct tape. Once hooked you'll have plenty of ideas on how to blow money.

Just bought a GS342 for the 33, mechanic calls today and there's a pump in there flowing basically double what the 342 would.

Y I always get dicked.

What are the specs on the pump I might be interested in buying, thinking of going over to E85.

I used to live just off Greythorn Rd... Now living in Footscray, but regularly back in the 3-1-0-4!

Cool might see you around.

I was asking more what do I need to do for my car not to fail on the track, for example I have been told that street brake pads will only last 2 laps and then be basically useless. Engine oil cooling was another. Do you guys get this or have prepared for that somehow?

I'm in Balwyn. Seen a black r33 with black recaros a couple of times on Whitehorse/balwyn roads. Was that you?

This is mine but diff driver and rims than that pic. Same rego.

Might wanna change to return type cooler piping, a hole cut for piping is a big no no on a series 2.

Nice car though :yes:

very clean car you got there mate.

If there are any meets/gatherings in balwyn or surrounding suburbs, let us know. keen to meet up.

Keen for that, haven't met anyone in the car scene since I got her so far.

Yeh I only figured that out after I had given deposit and signed contract to purchase. It's on the list of things to do but not at the top.

Should do an eastern suburbs meet, Balwyn and surrounding suburbs!

Out of curiosity, with a non return flow can the car technically ever be returned to RW condition? Or if you got dicked would you have to gain a engineers cert?

I bought it with rego and to buy with rego you must provide a RWC as part of the sale, so yes it was deemed roadworthy condition.

Defs keen for any kind of meet.

In other news... got my first EPA letter... damn that was fast. FML

Exhaust noise. Now to figure out what to do about this.

"Either excessively noisy or to have had a faulty exhaust system"

My car is noisy but nowhere neat the volume of a Harley davidson for example. Seems like my first dose of police targeting Skyline drivers.

Edited by jukic.j

That sucks, do you have the standard exhaust still? Makes me a bit nervous, just replaced the exhaust with a straight through pipe from the cat back and mine is VERY loud. Police presence isn't to bad around our area though, apart from the odd HP down Burke road (and It's not driven a lot on weekdays).

But yeah, there's a major police presence at the moment this year. Hopefully you can get it cleared up ASAP mate.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
