hahhaha @ 33 owner saying there are thousands like it around, talk about ironic.

Now now, let's not crack that 'ol nut again. I drive an R33, yes, there certainly are a fair few around nowdays but let's not get ahead of ourselves. Excels, Falcons, Commodores and most other commercially sold cars in Australia, there are lots of. This includes the R31 skyline. Although like you say Tom, there probably isn't many with RB25's. However, logically speaking there's gotta be more 31's than 33's around in general. I highly doubt that the number of 33's on our roads, particularly here in WA are in the thousands but i'd say it's a safe bet that there are thousands of R31's. INASNT also made no reference to performance or specs and merely commented that there are R31's that look like yours around.

I personally like this thread cause it certainly highlights some of the "do's" and "don't do's" to all skyline models but ultimately it's your own opinion as to which you think is an utter shitter and which is da bomb.

Peace! :hippy: Dave

there is an r33 identical to the one, around the corner from me, except it is burgundy, same hubcaps and all. must be rb20e urban runners. looks so bad, im suprised they dont have grey bumpers to go with the hubcaps.

mmm this 32 gtr

THat car now happily resides with one of the fang artists, who comes on here as RedR32 (Should be renamed to PurpleR32 soon)

that's the blitz high speed R34, got up to 343km/hr on last count.

I was mainly laughing at ur comments of game over really you must be kidding right?

Dood i don't think he was being full on serious about it. We all love our cars in that special way regardless of what they are. It's like having a gf man, you think she's the most beautiful thing in the world..... but sometimes when ur walking down at scarborough beach at lunch time on a 40 degree day in the middle of summer and look around at some of the talent, you might rethink some of those thoughts! hahaha :P

Either way, Tom's R31 is without a doubt one of the finest around, the photo far from justifys it. If he thinks it's the greatest - then so be. We are all entitled to our opinions.... Whether it be Whales or Fridges that you love... at least we have the R32 to save us. :P hahaha!!!

Anyways guys im getting back into my work before i drift away and fall asleep on my breast.. er *cough* i mean desk. :(

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
