Sadface. I wish.

I hardly even drive my GTR on town roads. Spends more time @ Ultimate than it does @ my place.

Speaking of it's going back in next week or the week after. lul.

Spent all day on the VC

It's in pretty good condition

except no brakes :/

- Front callipers seized so got reco ones, rear wheel cylinders seized so got new, master brake cylinder cactus got new, pads worn so replaced, front discs needed machining and bled brakes - All fixed now :)

- then degreased bay, washed, clay bar, polished, polished again.

Tomoz will wax x 2 and clean engine bay and paint a few minor things back to new looking and then clean interior

Then full service and drive :D

Not that im any better....... :laugh:

Crappy photos at night but you get the idea.

$25 on ebay, You can use the controller or just hook up the colour you want.

Thats what i did, just cut a length, wired up the earth and the green, then plugged it into the boot light socket.

I will probably put the rest in the cabin, under the dash and seats, and in the door pockets, all joined together with the controller hooked up to it.

It went to S.A on Monday and back in my hands Today

Recommend for all 32 peeps who have tired looking Steering Wheels, Coz I'm happy to lend my spare while yours is getting recovered.

Total cost = $275 (and a 6pack for me :) )

Sneak Peak on what im currently doing to my engine bay.

And cleaned both front indicators

Yesterday I played R33 Suspension games again.

I found that the Bump Stops I had put on were way too tall and they were actually taking up some of the weight of the car. (you live and learn) :rolleyes:

So after chopping the stops, the Front Lovell Springs were too low. They looked MAD! but rubbed the guards when cornering.

So I've put the NISMO springs back in the Front and have the Lovells in the rear. Sits even.

(eyebrow height is 335mm both front and back)

Then a Wash. :D

Drove out to Sutton and found the ride not too bad but definitely harsher than Stocker springs.

Stopped for a Pic on the way home.

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
