they might have kick ass cop cars to us, but if any of u guys have seen the Yellow Monaro in the city (melb) or the other i think glow in the dark silver SS's....they look soooo cool, with the checkered police markings, all shiny and sh*t, look awesome.

what the hell were they thinking when they did those paint jobs??? :confused:

edit: the jap police cars paint jobs i mean. :thumbsup:

btw that wing is a std R34 GTR wing i thought

haa.. i was just about to post the same topic. my gf's sister's husband lives in japan(neither japanese...) and said they use skylines like series 2 r33 gtst's for police cars.

she said they mainly use the r33 gtst's series 2's for undercover cars. wikid.

maybe i should cruise around the streets pretending im an undercover cop :D hehee..

"excuse me sir...... but your under arrest for not owning a japanese car."

ps. please excuse my poor attempt at a joke.:mad:

pps. im lame;)

same!! i saw it at the corner of Spencer and Flinders St, does look pretty mean! :uh-huh:

The silver SS highway patrol cars look awesome as well. Now we know where all the speed camera revenue goes, into the $10K paint job/decal to get the cop cars looking so spiffy :P

yep and i actually have a 15ec video of an r34 police car chasing a white gtr....

the white gtr looked like it was winning....

The police car chasing the white R34 GTR isn't a GTR at all.

It's some Toyota car which not sure which model.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
