i was talking about EVL R33 but yes macka in a better form can whoop my arse too. nah i seee no poin tmaking a idiot of myself theres far more worthy cars the deserve to run than mine i'll just stick to my more playful gigs i do on the street that i shouldnt really do but i do anyway. Pretty funny friday night one of my friends dads Type R's went passed so i waited for the lights to go green and caught up in the process of doing 100 in a 60 zone i passed a radar on the other side of the road - i slowed right down fro the next 10kms just incase they decided to get on the CB and get soemone to pick me up late on down the road haha

everyone speeds - fact of life - you dont have cars like ours to drive like grannies anywhere! besides the only private road i used to love has become public so bugger it i will still speed on it - cops are a raretity on it anyway. Its the only way i let loose with built up anger the more pissed off i am the harder i drive.

i dont know i like drivers that challenge my skill - weaving etc lurve it except when im blocked in by soemone in the left hand land and someone in the right hand land doing the same speed aghh most annoying! After two beers and a bad day - hell i can drive :P thats all it takes and im queen of the road - well so i think anyway!!

    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • 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  
    • 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
    • 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.
