Just joined up and expect to have my R33 on the weekend. Looking forward to catching some of you guys on cruises etc. Btw can anyone recommend a good place to have an R33 looked after. I plan to do alot of work to the new car and would like to find a good workshop who can do the work and keep the car in tip top condition. (Someone that can work on PFC)

Look forward to meeting some of you guys in the future.

Welcome to the QLD SAu community :)

Depending on how far you are willing to travel but theres a few places. Theres Gavin Woods - Autotech (www.autech.net.au) down the coast at Labrador that many forum members use or there's Mercury Motorsport (www.mercurymotorsport.com.au) over at Wilston that are a sponsor of the SAu QLD club. I personally take my car to Gavin and have been for the past two years. Never had a problem. There are a few tuners around the place. Gavin Woods, Mercury Motorsport, Matty Spry, just to name a few.

A great way to meet some of us is to attend the regular thursday night meets which are posted in the events section or the Cruise out west which is coming up within in the next three weeks. Also, the next Massive Skyline Cruise will be held by the end of this year.

I'm going to use my psychic powers to discern that your last car was an SR20det 180sx relitavley modified. Now you have a white series 1 1/2 r33gts25t with worn handbrake boots and a steering wheel that looks slightly worse for wear. The car will have approximatley 85-90k "genuine" kilometers on it despite the wear on the steering wheel suggesting otherwise. I see a front strut brace and a cat back exhaust, i think it's an HKS super dragger, and stock rims that will soon depart. HOwever I'm happy to say that in my vision I can't see any roll cage holes.

LOL nice guess Charly. My last car was a 180sx with a few mods. My other half is into v8's her last car was a VX2 Clubsport R8. I have always liked Skylines and ready for a new project.

New car is a 94 R33 GTST with 65k on the clock. R400 body kit custom paint. Engine has catback and pod filter and was told GTR injectors and fuelpump. Going to do all the standards add ons like full exhaust, FMIC, PFC and boost control.

don't forget the front mount. we'll have to have a look when you come out to see what else your car has. Also if you want flames you'll have to smack out your cat.

If your preference is for mountains I would also reccomend some aftermarket suspension.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
