bolts look dressy mate

did you have fun getting the parcel shelf out ?

drop by next weekend and see if your interested in a mint steering wheel at a modest price

tempting you.... :whistling:.

a rear wiper delete plug or place cap over wiper nut (or spray black till your ready)

Getting the parcel shelf out wasn't that bad. But the drivers side lock that holds the rear seat in was a bitch. I was very happy with how clean it was under the seats. I didn't have to do much.

Wanting to go out and put more parts on currently but it's -4 outside and well.... It's warm in here. Will wait for the sun to peak out properly.

  • 2 weeks later...

Didn't do much on the weekend due to the weather being crap.

Pulled the washer bottle and radiator overflow out for painting (again but with good paint) and will be adding a few minor details to those, lets pray the weather is nice enough to paint this weekend.

Polished the radiator and the catchcan. Ordered a couple more braided lines. Attempted to pull the spoiler off but it does not want to move. Will have to be more careful when i have more time.

And cleaned the headlights.

Re did all my vacuum lines with new aeroflow ones, and painted the symbol on the lid of my washer bottle red. Makes it look heaps better.

And polished and cleaned most of the car including doing a complete interior clean.

Also ordered more OEM parts. Got so much crap coming i forgot what i ordered :\

    • 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
