Guys, i don't want to preach that i know alot about cars, but give these other guys a break. They are out trying to learn something, and it doesn't help that you're all giving them sh*t for their mistakes.

Everyone has to start somewhere. Learn them, don't diss them

Just reading these posts, IV never came across such arrogant dick heads. The guy is asking a question here that’s why this is called a forum. You know the thingy you click on called Skylines Aus, yeah guys have a good look at its a forum, which means people ask questions. If you think someone is asking a stupid question why give him a stupid answer, you guys are really showing you age here, 12yo? 13yo? In my opinion it wasnt a stupid question anyway, did you guys know what a waste gate or BOV was when you first started in the car scene??? I think not so why be smart asses about it, this guy should be encouraged to ask q's not bagged.

To the person asking the questions and getting bagged out, ditch this forum mate and go to Performance Forums they are much more informative there and iv never been bagged on it.

Great forum but a few rotten apples here.

I agree with Bart!! Leave this bloke alone, he is only trying to findout about the cars that WE ALL love to drive and talk about. I'm picking up my first GTS-T on Sunday morning, I'm sure that I will have some questions soon as well. Thats what this site is about or have some of you forgotten that? I'm 33 years old, he is 16, what does it matter, a question is a question! Maybe you lot should find something more productive to do with your time rather than bagging the newb's!! I'm a newb to this site why dont you bag me or do you lot only pick on 16 yr olds?

Thanks DJ Brave

Yes Iv been a member less than a month? Does that mean you should tell me where to go and bag a 16yo?? Is it forum condition that if someone has been here for less than a month they must bugger off because you say so? Gee if that were the case you would be pretty lonely here.

You must be pretty stupid and slow as you have obviously been here a lot longer and still haven’t realized that this is a forum. What does it matter even if IV been here for 1 minute. Perhaps anyone else who has been here for less than a month and decides to encourage others to play by the intended rules (ask questions without being bagged, insulted) should watch the door also?? And please don’t confuse your arrogant behavior for constructive criticism, there is a difference.

Enough of this shit, my only point was just treat others how you expect to be treated. If you had asked me a question like what is Ohm's law? I wouldn’t bag you for it just because it’s common knowledge to me. As I have work around it every day for over 10 years.

No I would answer it the best I can and would probably say to you if you have any other questions don’t hesitate to ask me.

It is a forum after all isn’t it?

By the way I’m 30 yo does that comply with your condition??

Where are the moderators on this??

:P

age shouldt play any factor. just trying to initiate some initiative from newbies whether they be 16 or 30 to do a search prior to askin a question as its probably been covered already so you atleast have some idea of the question that your askin. i sure did when i first joined and still do. i agree that some of the posts were quite harsh, learn to brush it off, get back on the horse and ask more questions be it a little more informed next time.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground

      Coolant leak?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.

      Coolant leak?

      By Chupapy · Posted

      Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
