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.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
