James, good news and bad news hey..........

Well, I hope it's looked after by it's new owner. Does this mean we will see a dark car of Russian Descript, lurcking in the shadows, trying to hide it's vodka riddled shell, waiting for the perfect time to lang at it's target?

I remember seeing Golgo the first time on Chapel on night many moons ago.

Other memories (some good, some bad :P)

Golgo being broken into a few years back and all the cool ricey stuff stolen from inside. I hope those f*ckers were caught and hung by the balls!

The sexy side of Golgo on O so many cruises. Cruising right next to him and then blasting away after dropping to 3rd :) Ahhh, Beauty and the Beast.

Pulling over on Swan St for a bit of a chat under the bridge. When a simply honk won't do :D

Giving Golgo a righteous fang around Winton and then looking like a complete f*cktard when I spun him and then to make things worse, another spin with the windows open totally filling the interior and engine bay with dust. Dusty brown interiors aren't very sexy.

James calling me recently asking questions about how to maintain the GTR when sh!te goes wrong. The ancient art of removing a battery from a 33.

The "Accidental Lock In" was also hilarious.

The bike rack on Golgo at MAS this year was a classic. Truely a family car.

"GTR Support Vehicle"

Last but not least (as I'm finished thinking) FLAMES ON DEMAND!!!!!!!!!

Good luck to the new owner. Please treat Goglo with the respect it deserves.

Sad to see her go James, but I can always offer a ride if you feel nostalgia for Purple and bronze TE37's (although you may find things happening a leeetle quicker :mellow:). Whiteline kit with Bilsteins is so sweet.

It's taken a long time and I hope the joy in the pocket removes some of the pain in the heart.

Cheers

I thought I had seen this GTR before and then realised that yours looks very similiar.

Nice car mate. Sad to see it go, especially if you've had it for a few years.

Good luck with your new project (even if it is a house)

    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
    • lights are on just the one click.  
    • Absolutely matters because, while a temperature change will eventually reach a sensor at the end of a static line, the response time is far far far too slow to be useful. Might as well not have a temp gauge at all.
    • When I was eyeing off the 370GT (after deciding I didn't want to spend 30-40k+ to relive my early 20s in an R33) I thought it'd be a good project to add a turbo to it. Now that I have a 370GT, and I've had a couple of chances to open it up, I'm pretty stunned by how much power it makes 🫠 Honestly, the way the VVEL opens it up, it almost feels like there's a little turbo tucked away in there somewhere. It's like Nissan looked at VTEC and said "hold my beer" 😁 Has anyone thrown a turbo into their 370Z or 370GT? Is there a conservative boost level you can run without having to upgrade the fuel system, or are bigger injectors and a bigger pump a given?
