Any updates ??

Nothing yet, not sure what to expect ?

I have asked to have the cam advanced for response without worrying about what it does to the top end.

It was suggested that with my set up , it would tune close to what I want on E85 but unfortunately that would only be used when available and that would not be too often. I want it to be as good as he can get it on 98 pump?

So I will wait and see how it turns out :/

V-Cam ?

Does it ever end when you chase a dream :no::yes::no: ?????

They lock them so no one can see their tunes, they did the same thing to my FC and Scott was able to get around it I would have expected more down low then that, you need to get someone else to tune

Mercedes are so over rated, my oldman has had E and C class... the amount of times they've been in for repairs :rolleyes: he's going back to Jap built cars, the last straw was when the sunroof dislodged the whole roof limning assembly on the C230, just out of warranty too. Some of thier engines are nice but as whole they're not as good as they once were.

This is where you're a bit wrong. It should read 'they weren't as good as they used to be but they've rediscovered themselves and are now awesome again. Your old man has an old model car. C230's were a fair while ago. I'm massively biased (I'm sales manager for an MB dealership) but the current product is incredible. We've got the new model C63S sitting on the showroom at the moment and it's a work of art! The twin turbos sit in the Vee of the engine and looks amazing. Everyone needs to do themselves a favour and go into a dealership just to hear one start up and rev. They have a bi-modal button that when you press turns a great sound into a sound you would happily donate your left testicle for. Seriously!

You forgot to mention how the early C63s head studs corrode and they loose coolant, and eventually do the headgaskets.

Only took 3 years for them to rectify that one...

On a serious note, yeah, they are cool cars. I thourghly enjoyed monstering a CLA45 on the track. In a straight line those little turbos are mighty impressive.

Ha ha, yeah I'm not going to say the current fleet are perfect until they prove themselves but compared to the 80's, 90's and up till 2013ish models, they are a huge leap forward in terms of styling, build quality and handling.

Our DP got to attend the AMG GT and C63S launch at Bathurst 2 weeks ago. He's not a car nut but he was amazed. Flogging AMGs at 270km/hr down Conrod straight is enough to convert any non car lover!

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!

      http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?

      Intro/R33 owner

      By f00stx · Posted

      Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).

      Second time Skyline owner (R33 GTS-T and now a V36 370GT)

      Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
