should be the offical sauwa mascot car, ahahah i love it, i got 50m 100mm pin striping, im sure we could wack some gt stripes on it hahaha, chrome paint the dubs, a shopping list, and a drift wing up on the roof ahahha should make it pull high 10's :D

bunkys are the shizle though, i had a performance bunky i had one of those really old toyota celicas ages ago, and while i was inside watching tele at a mates house they drcuded to sneak out and have some fun, they gave it 2 crooked as fudg racing stripes, painted the rims and wall of the tyre red and white, wrote 05 over it everywere, including my name on the boot ahah i walked outside after about 30mins to find my car totaly bombed up, not with tape, all spraycans, ahahah was a good laugh, ahhh how i miss her now :)

now thats a beast hahaha

gotta love bunkys and being able to go to the shops and dont bother winding up windows or locking it or bugger all haha

the joys, go over speed humps at 100kmh, over large curbs, drifting into curbs and laughing when ya hit it haha, bent plenty of axles in my old bunkys :) cost like $50 for a complete engine, and f**kin other parts people give away, and u can park it in some dodgy train station carpark or whatever and dont give a shit about whether its there when u get back :)

those where the days :)

Haha yeah the main reason I bought a N/A 33, at least 400kms per tank. Also got an R31 Pintara, must be 550ks per tank.

EDIT: Which reminds me, Pintara is for sale. Slow but looks fully sick uleh! PM for pics if anyone wants to know more.

just picked up my new car, bit of an upgrade from the R33

it pulls a scary 51 flywheel kilowatts @ 5000rpm.

today i changed the oil and spark plugs, removed the rear louver, and dumped it on some new 13" hubcaps.

pimpin.

man.. bunkys are where its at, when they work that is. Mine is going at the moment but its using just as much petrol as my GTST, which kinda defeats the purpose of buying it... but i do get to fit an arcade machine in the back of the van

I get 420kms to a R33 GTST tank.. but its only pulling 226.9rwhp at the moment :rolleyes:

I'm doing about the same with 225 rwhp! 48 lits for 420km. Which is not too bad, considering the fact that i'm stayin on campus in uni, and i only take her out on the weekends. A take lasts me 2 weeks? :rolleyes: But that will all go down the drain when the avc-r and pfc + new turbo. :D Oh wells, hopin for 300hp in the not so near future. Just can't afford it for now. :mellow:

Dude, these vans are the ultimate machine.. I got a work van, (suzuki carry, holden Scurry) same thing, and the are the hardest thing to kill.. I just beat it every day, started it up, rev the shit out of it, drill it when it's cold, go through the gear box up and DOWN without using the clutch. And it just keeps going.. it's insane

done 350 000 since new, on it's 2 block and 3rd head.. when I got the thing, the head gasket was on it's way, boss told me to keep going till it died in the arse.. well.. when I drove around with the seat up and the radiator cap off, and jsut poored water in it every time I stopped I new it was time to get it fixed. That and you poored the water in the radiator and it came straight out the exhaust. :(

but yeah.. new headgasket and shes on her way again.. damn things are unable to die..

Yeh man it is cool, but i have a problem when I try and start it sometimes. If i put fresh petrol in it from nearly empty, it doesnt start. If i park it on a hill, it doesnt start. I figured out if i leave it for about 2 hours it will start up fine. Im guessing that theres water in the fuel tank and it gets sucked in when it gets swished around the tank. Also its bad on fuel at the moment.

Any ideas?

I know I had to put a new fuel pump on both of the ones we have, the stock one sits just next to the tank, ditch it off and get one from coventries or something, but new fuel pump is defenetly the way to go.. Also a common problem with them is they have trouble starting when it's really hot.. like 32c +

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
