  1. Got a atmo bov? Ever doubt clutch? Either of the two will help obvious double clutching will keep the revs up during changes but the atmo bov kills boost as vents air instead of recirculating.
  2. Hey mate if your interested in selling the led lights let me know.. swapsies with mine of course.. might reduce the cost for buyer or somthing.
  3. pm me what you want for them... lowest price im only looked into them to restore them for a past time and to go on the car if they end up nice.. your call.
  4. What he said, engine reads twice as much air when its pushed back out when you back off.. then floods engine with fuel and stalls it .. the end.
  5. Cops wont like it but no technically its not a defect..but no doubt they'll get you for exessive noise. Same as bov. Defects hey .. you know That phat turbo under your hood is .. Probly that high mount you bolted onto it most likely is.. the wastegate you have.. yeah id say so.. Aftermarket exhaust? Yeap Aftermarket ECU? Hell yes.. Your worried about your noises? lol
  6. Yeah I think I will be going full wide body .. Its just when money and the girl friend allows it .. dont know if its worth it unless its GT spec and im not exactly too keen on it. I.e in cost. Im thinking of throwing the money into an investment, appartment (prob not with current rates) or a new car.. Prob the latter as it wont devalue as much as the conversion..
  7. Dumbest thing ive ever heard.. Get a plumb back if youve got a bigger turbo recirculation helps with smoother transition of gears.. blocking off the bov will make the turbo chuff/flutter and make the car feel like its almost going to stop during gear change. not sure what air your on about.
  8. if its in safe mode its in it for a reason.. running power fc? limiter set? Running a boost controller? gain set at what? Fuel pump on the way out? How we going to help if you dont tell us wtf happened? if you want to reset disconnect battery apply brakes for 3 or 4 pumps wait 10 mins then reconnect and restart. go for thrash, cruise and start stop movement..
  9. well im on northen beaches too if you want $100 ill prob snap it up from you.. think bout it .. trying to sell my atmo too dont seem to move to well.. perhaps try boostcrusing.com
  10. Hey man shoot me a pm when you get the time.. just want to know how you found those wanali tyres
  11. As above however use a 2000grit on the plastic primer this will give a smooth finish and let the paint above look as good as your body paint (sand back every layer except the last - with water) Fyi i dont use plastic primer
  12. Looks like everyone backs the mx5.. But it is a very suss car, if you tint the windows enough u'll be right.. at least your not driving a vw beatle.. Try a mini never driven one, but chicks seem to dig it.. you mate have issues getting chicks?
  13. how bout $80 and a trade you no u wanna Doubt its direct bolt to any skyline the skyline flange is bigggg.
  14. They are pretty good, flashes 3 colours depending on knock level.. then you can set the shift light as you wish.. Good if you cant keep your eyes on the pfc..
  15. 10,000km is fine.. No oil loss or excessive fuel consumption. 5,000km is better when your doing short trips every day so shops and back or if your doing long distances at high speeds for example 110km/h @ 300km distance.. Both of the above will break the sythetic down faster.. use a good filter and it helps more. Obviously with a new engine obviously thats a different story running it in etc. Oh yeah oil coolers reduce oil wear.. as in breakdown.. but also in colder climates can reduce its ability to lube the engine.. Saying all the above I do mine at 5k..
  16. Sounds pretty old, Id say yes.. If the car is stock just buy a R34 GTR pump, a walbro pump (only if the car is stock) or another item Tomei, Nismo Bosch to name a few.
  17. cam gear still mine will get it wednesday weather pending..
  18. Yes.. Yes he is .. And if youve got it id like that turbo shield.. give ya $30
  19. That hood looks mint.. Nice work makes a tough look
  20. Nice work dropping in white under the black gives a great base coat. I went black pearl looks mint with slight gold flakes in the paint.
  21. I dont know how much they cost these days but Id put my money down for a Mx5 sure abit of a girls car I know but dropping it on coilovers will make you look at it in another way - needs turbo cause they are way to slow nonturbo. Secondly Id toss up between a Starlet, Charade turbo (seem to heaps around and cheap, cheap parts) and if you want to throw some dosh into it a GTIR If you want something that will gain money the longer you have it look at a AE86
  22. Just a tip make sure your alarm still works then, turn it up to high sensitivty as if hes found something he likes he'll be back. If he changed or disconnected your alarm while he was their then he may be back for the car... doubt it but better safe than sorry.
  23. no... known fact western suburbs is dodgy... only when u hit the mountains is it semi safe. Everyone knows western suburbs, cheaper housing because of crime, less jobs, more unemployment, more theft, more violence and so on.. I lived in the western suburbs and now im north... big difference Some people have a blanket over their eyes if you dont realise any place out west is a dodgy place. Statictical infomation shows you.
  24. Had the same not to long ago, after a fit of rage I never did see them again. Hope someone lends you a few bucks for lunch hey.. hope they didnt break any windows, they are worth a motza.. Best of luck with it all
