Thank you to all at SAU for making my first time at a grip event an enjoyable day. I was pretty happy with the GTR. I think its the first time in 3 years it had a decent thrashing. I just need to get my times lower.

Hope all is well with the Fliggymobile

Great day guys, big thanks to everyone who played a part in organising it! I threw a power steering belt on my first lap of the day...so off to Repco for a replacement. Thanks to the lads who gave me a hand to get it changed over quickly and get the s14 back on track asap! Ended up pulling a PB with a passenger in the car...first time I've done that! Did a solo run after and ended up getting another PB of 1:16.01!! Very happy with how the new tyres/alignment went, was also good to meet a few new faces.

Awsome day taking the new 32 for it's first grip day. Massive thanks for the SAU SA Exec team for organising the day, great work and the layout worked really well. Hope next time I can have decent tyres instead of 205's all round.

Massive thanks to Munro for the burn in the 33, best car I've ever been in.

Had a blast on the burn out pad at the end hence why I went back out. Ended up splitting a heater pipe at the end so spose that's good compared to what else could have happened and car will be fixed Saturday.

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
