Yeah i didnt think that i could barter much wiht them, i think that i did well to get out of the yellow!

I ended up having 5 beers and a Red label and coke... was feeling pretty happy by the time that i got to bed. I so love that Little Creatures beer that they make in Freo.

I had a bottle of wine the other night and it was sooooo nice... might do that again... Of course it will be while i am cooking dinner... :)

Nose front... what the?? i have witnesses.... haha

Is yours just running badly? Might just need some TLC and a service!

Haha wish that i could work the street, somehow i dont think that i would get much, if anything i think that i would end up with less!! ha

Just got to get that damn lotto win in hand! (Mmmm wish list)

Oh, why cant it be Friday already i hate mondays, so many days till the week is over.

nah had a service on April - but it get sserviced by a trev so anythings likely ..... from my experience most of my problems with cars stem from fuel .... maybe this needs a S-AFC or sumthin.

hehe i got major air on friday night - poor car bottomed out ..... i feel sorry for the punishment i give it specially since its an auto.

i didnt win lotto on Saturday - no fair!!

Bought a Gameboy for my trip to SA on Sunday..... there went $250 dollars.

I got major fuel problems too, mine is running heaps rich.

I still cant believe how low yours is, looks awesome. I have got a few pictures left to take amd then i can get the roll of film developed that i was taking.

I thought that your car was a manual!

I didnt win lotto either, most i had was 2 numbers, and that was on two lines and that was it, but the time that i forget i know that the numbers will come up.. knowing my luck!

You are so going to need the gameboy on the way over, it gets so boring... i have done that thing 3 times now and i refuse to drive it anymore. I will fly if i have too.

yeah thinking of sticking mine on the dyno just to see what the curves are like - i know the power sucks :D .... used to be heaps quicker than what it is just think ive thrashed it a bit too much.

nah shes a little auto :D

hehe yeah i warned you it was low :)

sorry had tot ake people around

I think I "guessed" you richie - tall skinny bloke with brown hair and the purple? 180?

weather last night was bullshit. I kept waking up thinking that basketball sized hailstones were about to start falling on me motor! but it was just the wind!? Ive never heard wind so loud!!

Richie - for what it's worth, there were some quick S13s there too..... :)

I dunno if i would call myself skinny but yeah i had the purple 180 with the nice concept 5 look alikes on... i will admit that there were some quick s13's there... but damn.. those lines were awesome... Pauls flames were wicked... just wish that i could have driven and taken pictures!!

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