oh erm. anyone in the army reserves?

Skylinegeoff is full-time army I think?

I expect no holding at Singleton for Sydney anymore! :P last week we did 3 laps of the Army base!!!! haha....

It's a pain when that happens! I've met the guys that work that sector. I work at Newcastle/Williamtown Tower and TCU. The biggest jet we see is prob a B738, plus the military stuff.

The civil ATC system is based upon a computer that can calculate your SY slot time pretty much once you have departed, and that'd be why the controller had to shaft you with the holding :P but hey, if I know the flight number, I'm sure we can sort things out to make you an easy #1...hehe

btw do you really get a fuel bonus?

The car is in Bris, and should be ready for Sydney pickup around the 10th. That said, it sure feels good to know it's here finally. I don't think I'd import again - a nice 92 model sounds like the ticket! :P

Cowie.....SSSssshhhhhh.

Just got relocated to Technical Integrity in Army HQ. Something to do with policy and implementation. Over it already. long service in May and home to Qld (brissy) and out of the green.

Hey all, I work for a large Global outsourcing company (EDS) as a Senior Project Planning specialist mainly doing large IT Infrastructure projects. I'm working out of Canberra ATM on Customs and Tax.

its rumoured that i am a panel beater/gearbox repairer,fitter/engineer/welder/fabricator.....just clarifying its not true... i dont know anything about cars.......

Yeah bullshit Troy!!! U built an R34 GTR from scratch, with a piece of sheet metal!!! :wassup:

Also looking for a better position in 3rd level desktop support, 2/3rd level network support... let me know :D

riggap: what area of support are you looking at? I think the position "consultant analyst programmer" is available, not sure if its been filled yet, but I will definately let you know caus we get a $3k headhunting fee at end of probation :D

    • 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
