Just my thoughts after having the car for 3 weeks.

Firstly great looking car nice rims chrome around the windows looks nice. Only fault no driving lights on front bar should be standard on all sp models. Secondly top engine lots of power smooth acceleration. Theres been a few post about fuel economy been not so great iam getting 520klm per tank which is unreal considering the performance you have on tap. Good quality interior nice layout love the music box. The standard audio is actually not the bad good bass from the front speakers.FAULTS to me are the steering seems quit heavy as soon as theres a defect in the road the car will pull to that side in a hurry which can be a pain. Suspension is quit firm can get very bumpy at times nissan should have had a setting for comfort and sport. Saying that it handels great around corners. So all up I realy like the car but its not for me I think it was more of an impulse buy and will be selling it soon. Hope to read some replys on other owners and there thoughts

At first I was like :happy:

Then I was like :woot:

Afterwards :unsure:

And now :(

...why are you selling? PV36 is where it's at for the money!

Around the 4-5k mark for a decent system including a decent management system like Accuair. So it's not cheap.. but it will likely make the ride softer than what you currently have, plus then you can run whatever height you want. Need air tank(s), compressor(s), bags, lines from compressor to tank, lines from tank to bags, fittings, management system.

It's technically only legal if you also have the auto levelling system installed with it (and probably an engineers cert), however this will not allow you to adjust it on the fly, only when parked. I think driving mode is then set at the minimum legal height for your car too.. which doesn't sound overly fun.

If you don't go around slamming it and pumping it while driving then it's not likely that you will get done, but if you're spotted playing with it, or hard parking somewhere with it on the ground then you may get some unwanted attention haha. But it would be tempting!

    • 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
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
