This is more 'chuckable' but will bite quicker - The VR could be chucked around all day and not lose traction (for me anyway eh Jim? sorry m8....)

This is far more mad so requires far more respect - did some mad wheel spinning chasing my mates HOT 200SX did not realise it would wheel spin so easy /Hmmm

:inquisiti

should be around 400bhp without the NOS - going to see Gary at APT to look at emanage and look at the map on high boost (1.2)

Smokin.............
it was 45 , the ayc was showing 2 bars , but don't forget that was with your old wheels and tyres on , still not a patch on the V6 though

[bradc]

nice bonnet, what model is it?

[Quail]

Thats a lovely 33gtst. Id say 400bhp was easily attaintable with that engine work :)

Bit scary through the rear wheels though!

[Smokinmasta2]

What the car or bonnet?

Jun style bonnet, and a very NON standard GTS-T 2.5 R33 single turbo

[The Vee]

No flames from me. That looks good

" A trush what sir"
Trust FFS

5 mins later and several spelling corrections later..........
"Will it be used on the track sir"
"Of course not"
"Ok, it will be an extra £208"
"Can i decrease my mileage"
"You can sir, any reason why"
"because of how much you fecking leaches take off me every year"


So anyway, not too bad an increase, was actually only another £140pa with reducing my mileage to 5000 ............of course i did not tell them everything, just the main stuff like NOS, exhaust, wheels, Intercooler and boost controller.

/yes

[mr p]

:smoking:

[enigma]

Not a wise decision....tell them everything, or it WILL hurt!

[jakester]

Thats a lovely 33gtst. Id say 400bhp was easily attaintable with that engine work :)

Bit scary through the rear wheels though!


The car puts out close to 400 through the wheels without the N20 :)

[Smokinmasta2]

.................Jake was the previous owner :thumbsup:
Now an owner of a super grippy Silver VR4 :thumbsup:

Smokin............

[Wodjno]

[
- going to see Gary at APT to look at emanage and look at the map on high boost (1.2)

I have some E-Manage Ultimates on order.. /yes Should have price in coupla :days.. happy:
If you can wait that long.. /Hmmm

Sounds like an awesome motor :thumbsup: But i can't see it at work PC for some reason .. /grr

[enigma]

Same Jakester from WON site?

Whats the best 1/4 you have done in it?

[pezza]

Great looking motor indeed... Gotta love the R33... :evil2:

How long have you had this beast? :leer:

[Smokinmasta2]

:thumbsup: since Saturday m8 - will have to come down your manor and go the Ace cafe meet one evening!!

Dave - think it was running 13's without the NOS, so 12's should be possible.
Might be asking you questions about emanage soon - still have figure out the alarm first!! I could not get the engine to turn off yesterday and nearly resorted to diconnecting power to fuel pump :embarasse

Smokin............

[pezza]

I guess you mustve been ragging it too much that the turbo timer calculated an hour to cool off?? /pan

Ace cafe would be good indeed... A few fellow skyliners there you could share a bacon roll and a mug of tea with am sure!

[enigma]

Smokin............

Seen a post where it did a 14.4 with no Nos..............also one stating 300BHP not 400......

I guess its had some more work done?!

[jakester]

Hi Dave, yes it is me off the WON site, and, it has had work since that 14.x, I added the emanage, injectors, z32 afm, gtr fuel pump and regulator, other bits and bobs and had it all mapped at ATF Power is wisbech. I ran a 13.9 a couple of months ago without the N20, so, I really think the car has a 12 in it with the right conditions and on the gas.

[Nick VR4]

VERY NICE CAR :thumbsup:

[jakester]

John, what sort of probs are you having with the alarm?

[enigma]

You wil probably need a bit more than 50 to get the 12s, but respectable none the less......

Still cant figure the insurance out though....normally nitrous scares the crap out of them! Loads of places wouldn't touch me without the gas..........and I imagine Skylines premiums are worse just because they have a certain kudos!

[jakester]

Skyline premiums are kinda crazy, that is one thing I am glad to be rid of :), as for the VR4, bloody marvellous car, I love it.

sorry for the hijack john.

[Smokinmasta2]

John, what sort of probs are you having with the alarm?

Cant get the turbo timer function to work mainly, also i get lost trying to remote start - every whirs into life, ign, radio etc but does not fire up.
Do i have to leave to ign toggle switch armed?
I keep trying diff combinations in the instruction book/manual!!

Do you have the sparkplug cover BTW?

[jakester]

Yes I have the plug cover :).

To get the turbo timer to function......

After a drive, with the car still running....on the keyfob press:

clifford, clifford doublestar, then, press the unlock button and switch the ign off (and the toggle switch if it is on). The doors will unlock and the car stays running. get out, lock the car and the turbo timer will switch off after 40 secs.

for remote start, just press the single star.

[WildCards]

That looks awesome, lovely bonnet. But, where do you guys get all your money from?!?!?!

I think i'm in the wrong profession.

Nice one, hope you both enjoy your new cars.

[Smokinmasta2]

....................I now a VR4 again!!!

Welcome back dude :-) :thumbsup:

I understand what you mean about auto drifting :D (well without AYC anyway)

Whats it like being back in the VR4? Glad?

Like the new electronic additions to the car? Even quicker now too...

Is this a permanent swap or just till fairer weather returns?

Cheers

P

PS No more questions y'honour

[Smokinmasta2]

LOL Pezz - no a permanant swappy!!
The missus is more happy than me :thinking: - as 90% of the time
i had my lad (5 years old) in the back :baby: ...........and had a few 'moments' !!
/help

HJM - Japfest - would love to, but i think places are taken already? and will have to look at funds. Unless someone wants to help me out :) :) ;)

May 20th aint it??

[Smokinmasta2]

BTW, it's certainly a lot noisier and bit quicker with Jakes mods...............:2thumbsup - although it was misbehaving this morning with gear changes.............

[Brunty]

....................I now a VR4 again!!!
Jake and i swapped back!!

So I was a little premature with my PM eh? You only changed your profile last week - you need to change your car listing from Skyline back to VR4 again now!

:2thumbsup

[moosejuice]

A man with similar taste, but with 2 big dogs there was no option for me but a tasty VR4 estate. Once I trade the hounds in, a GTR will be top of my list. Is it true you cant get hold off R34's now due to SVA type approval?
Cheers Moose
