    Flooded

    Pat my bedroom is a bloody garage. i got all of my crap from 1 side to the other. emptied out a good 50L of water with a huge 10L bin.... mouldy carpet smell is awesome...... anybody complain about their garage getting flooded ill personally bitchslaps ya!
  2. sounds like a plan. put me down
  3. not all coppers are tossas. if u wanna have a pod, thats your choice. if u do chuck 1 in, keep your stock air box. great for clearing defects.
  4. clark rubber??
  5. If you require these asap, id suggest you grab the phone book and call your closest Nissan dealership. This thread is for part numbers only and parts arn't sold here. There are some members on here that do work for Nissan and may be able to give you a price but i dunno if they could supply them for you. Cheers.
  6. Like cheez said, 1 intake mod is allowed in Vic. stock piping stock cooler and pod is cool. examples are; stock piping stock air box and big cooler is cool. just as long as its only 1 mod on the intake.
  7. I would shop around for the mode door actuator. I have replaced mine with a brand new genuine 1 from Nissan and the price difference between dealerships is huge! the highest i was quoted was around the $460 mark yet i paid $189 for mine. I recently changed my OS to Linux and haven't been able to look up anything in FAST. i have the part details recorded in my word doc that i keep on my car but i seam to have misplaced this file!
  8. in the passenger foot well is the Temp actuator. that doesnt control the vent position. in the same spot but on the drivers foot well is the "Mode Door Actuator" this is what controls the vent position. either its a loose wire, or it is faulty and needs replacing. read up on the removal and replacement of it in the workshop manual. I replaced mine with a brand new OEM from nissan for $189. wreckers would be cheaper but then again, anything from a wrecker is just as old as what you have and could last a few days...
  9. Just a quick note to everyone, my Windows has died and i cant be stuffed tracking down a copy of windows and then reinstalling it. Linux is working just fine for me. The only thing is I havn't got Wine (Windows emulator) installed yet so i can't install FAST. Sorry guys. Although there is at least 2 people that read this thread that are certified in using FAST (Thats if I assume right) Maybe they could throw some numbers in for a while. Cheers, Ron
  10. lol really makes you wanna guard the car from the neighbour hood kids so they don't badge it!
  11. $95 for a badge?? OUCH!
  12. $167 for a badge?? ouch!
  13. Yea defenately the cover not the screen surround. I found the screen surround several times when i was searching for the cover.
  14. 68411-AA400- OEM MULTI FUNCTION DISPLAY FINISHER
  15. Sorry mate i got "no applicable part number" for this. I have seen a few of these for R32GTR's on Yahoo Japan so i'm gonna have a guess and say that there will be R33GTR 1s on there as well. Good luck mate
  16. Sorry guys, its been a long weekend. Crispyfries, mate if i were you i would call up Nissan and ask them if the bearings can be interchanged and which bearings are the cheapest. i4dat ill have the clips and screws part number/s for you tonight. (thats if i can find it) Same for the MFD cover for you sskylinee
  17. you learn something new everyday! thats gonna make life a lot easier. Cheers mate
  18. that doesnt look like a VIN to me at all. Australian VIN's look like 6U9000 then for example an R32GTR "BNR32123456" The 6U9000 is added to the front of every Japanese VIN to make it Australian. For your car it would be like : 6U9000ECR33 1 2 3 4 5 6
  19. ive got a big list of part numbers for R33 front fenders. 2 of them for a 96 GTST. I don't know the difference as i can't read Japanese. Whats your VIN and ill get a perfect hit on what your after.
  20. if they stuffed it up, they should fix it without charging you a cent, but because you were not the person that owned the car when it was changed, they might not fix it for free. Unless the previous owner is nice enough to take it back there and tell em that he still owns it? choice is yours
  21. Bill has made a good point here. Get your radiator flushed out several times. Oil is a bitch to remove from the cooling system. Talk to the previous owner and ask them why was the head gasket replaced. Was is because there was oil in the radiator? If they say yes, then most likely your motor hasn't been flushed enough to get rid of it all yet. Some people like to change the head gasket so they can add a metal gasket to support bigger boost. Maybe thats why it was changed. If this is so, then quite possibily you could be looking at a cracked head. Compression tests, leak down tests and any other funky tests that your mechanic can come up with will not always show up a crack in the head. My motor is a perfect example of this. Every test thinkable was done and everything was perfect. Car still drove like a dream. No loss of power at all. The only issue I had was I always needed to top up my oil and the radiator always needed flushing out to get rid of the oil. Looking at your options 1st is the best thing to do. Rebuilds arn't cheap Cheers, Ron
  22. ive read countless threads on this forum alone where rb26dett's from r32gtrs have been rebuilt. the search button is your friend. $4k is a fair price for the head to be pulled out fixed and refitted. This involves removing the whole motor and stripping pretty much the top half of the motor. A fair amount of work involved. I had oil in my radiator. This was from a crack inside 1 of the oil galleries in my head. It was not repairable so i needed a new head. I ended up having the whole motor rebuilt with forged pistons and rings. I did this cos i intended on using the car on racetracks and wanted a bit more security. In total, i spent around $14k on my car. This was the motor, powerfc, clutch and a few extra goodies. If its suspected that there is either a crack in the head or the head gasket, you need to pull it down to find out., Theres no sure fire way to tell until you do pull it down. If you do this, maybe look at what you want the car for. Do you wanna have a nice clean car for road only or do you wanna go to the other end of the scale and go flat out round racetracks every opportunity you have? Then look at what to do from there. My 2c
  23. im happy to drive along with ya al. thats if i go along on this
  24. yea 20 would be the quickest, most simplist and cheapest answer yet when i had a cracked head i had the motor rebuilt. then i could do what i wanted while the motor was open and knew that the motor wasnt gonna die from old age
