Get some susupension bushes m8 appaerntly they help with traction off the line quite alot. U get less axle tramp and that kinda stuff so u can really throw it off the line. Do a search for 'pinapples' and u should find something. :D

Hicks, your black r33 looks incrediably like a r32 to me. Maybe I'm going blind. To run into the 13's you need a low 60 foot time, around 2.1-2.3, which means you need good off the mark traction. Whiteline make a diff craddle kit, its 4 poly-urethene bushes that adjust the rear craddle for maximum traction. Also a good set of tyres, dunlop f901's or sp9000's will do the trick and depending on your rim size. If you've got a nice set of 17x9" deep dish rims you can stretch some 255/35 or something over them, maybe 235/45. you want something with a fair amount of sidewall for flex when you launch. btw: I've only got a cat back exhaust, electronic boost controller set to 0.8bar, hks pod filter, heavy duty clutch and a set of 225/55 r16 dunlop sp9000's and I ran a 14.11 wednesday night just gone. Rev210 (dave) has got a turbo back exhaust, running around 8-10psi boost and he ran a 13.8!

nah, its deffinetly an r33. The only difference on mine is that I have had the rear nissan badge(boot lock) removed and filled over. Some tosser ripped it off!

My rims could be a problem, there 245's but theres not much side wall as the rim size is 19''. Looks good though!

i think i saw you on leach hwy near risely st a couple of times, the bootlock has been filled, and its still got grey primer right?

I have seen 2 different black R33s there, but i definately saw 'hicks' i could be wrong about the primer though.

Nice car all the same.

mine does that.. sometimes when i turn the car on it does so and the climate control wont turn on until its all clicked out.. im thinking its the air directional doozies or some crap *shrug*..

if it aint broke.. dont fix it.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
