Nice car, even better price... how do you like the 34 Rims on it? Do you have spacers with them?

the R34 rims suite the car nicely.. gives it the stealth look. I was even thinking of getting them painted gold.

PS. i didnt have to add spacers at all, did you have to with your car?

I don't have spacers on my car, but i don't think the wheels fill the guards enough, so i want some :)

Go to http://www.racepacemotorsport.com/rpmgtr.html there will be a photo pop up of Bens car with R34 GTR wheels, he has spacers on them in that photo, you can see how they fill the guards a lot more.... the wheels still look awesome on R33 GTR's, mine have been repainted and darkened a bit from standard colour (they came with the car like that) but i was going to put R34 GTR rims on any R33 GTR i got anyway.

Good luck with the sale, good price for a series3!

Hi

The Twin HKS exhaust, hows the cutout done, I mean is it factory or has the hole been increased at the time when it was fitted. Might sound like a stupid question, but never seen a twin pipe on a GTR.

Is speedo factory original?

You still have the factory R33 rims?

Thanks

As stated, its a twin exhaust straight from the turbo. Single front pipes come from each dump pipes from each turbo. There is no Y join like other front pipes, its basically 2 exhaust pipes comming from the 2 turboes. Each pipe has a cat on it (in total 2 cats). Hence this exhaust being Rare....

The speedo is a aftermarket Nismo 300km dash set. Sorry, i sold the rims 2wks ago after i bought the R34 rims.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.

      I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋

      Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.

      So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around without a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
