  3. Remove dash and pull globe for warning light. And, S1R33RWDFTWBBQ
  4. Im looking for standard shocks for the rear of a R33 GTST. I need a spare set of rears for drag days, just shocks are ok as I plan to raise the rear with + 10mm from standard King springs. They must not be leaky. Cosmeticaly I couldnt care less. Thanks, Mark
  5. Thanks mate, I love the pics.
  6. LOL, yeah it was fun up until it got traction and started rubbing, Ive been googling standard height King springs, Ive sent them a email, we will see how it works out
  7. Stupid cars, first run got a 11.9, was really happy as I sort of took it easy, second run I did a good burnout then launched hard, it took off like a rocket, hit second gear and it really hooked up, BUT, with all the squat the tyres rubbed on the guards and made a heap of noise so I backed off a bit then hit it again but they scrubed again so I backed off. Third run was more scrubbing so I dropped my showbags and went home. Its time to either jam a jack and a bit of wood in the wheel well to pump out the guards or get some taller springs, Im going for the jack method I think, free and easy, I just hope I can push them out about 15mm. The tyres are fine with only small scrub marks on them, hopefully it will be done for next Wensday night.
  8. Ive just removed the front floor mats, the car is now preped for racing. Apart from fitting the M/T Street ET tyres on the back that is... All thats left to do is get there and buy a bag of donuts.
  9. Im only going to the drags for the donuts fatboy.jpeg
  10. Im goimg to try and bump from work at 1630.
  11. Good condition $50.00 Pick up only Sydney, near Liverpool.
  12. Im in With sticky hoops of goodness I shall attempt to get my launching right and go for gold. It would be a pity to get booted for a 11.99, Im going to give them a good cooking first up and see how it goes, I might even use first gear again to start. Fingers crossed nothing breaks.
  13. Thanks for the tyres mate, I'll put them to good use, and hopefully get booted on my 2nd run on Wednesday
  14. http://www.earls.com.au/files/2011earlscatalog.pdf 251010ERL -10 Reinforced Viton® with Aluminum Support 150 PSI Max .5 PSI to seal, This is the one I use. There is a -12 available but its a bit more expensive > 253012ERL -12
  15. Because the boat has been good of late I got it a present, plus I need to do better than a 12...... Next Wensday, HEY HO LETS GO
  16. I have no clue on the foam, I myself would get rid of it and baffle it, as for the drains/vents, plumb the head drain into the Turbo oil drain and get a EARLS one way valve for the can drain. The left hand of the sump is a PITA as the only spot to put a fitting on the sump is to low and oil will push its way up. To test it remove the line from where it connects to the can, then undo one of the breathers and block the others, then blow into the breather, if oil comes out of the line from the sump (like mine did) then you either need to move it or put in a oneway valve. Where do you live, if its in Sydney I could show you what I mean if my description of the proccess isnt making sense.
  17. Where are the returns to the sump located, mine were to low and oil was being pushed up them, after fitting a one way valve on the catch can return and moving another to a tee on the turbo oil return all is good. And returning your oil to the sump is fine, the only reason people think its not is because they see the oil that comes out of a non return can, in a non return system the catch can will fill with oil and moisture and also during the cooling proccess it absorbs moisture giving it the milky apperance, BUT, with the return to sump the moisture will be cooked off by the oil getting hot. Its like the condensation forming inside of a car when you are sitting in it, the insine becomes warmer than the outside thus creating condensation, when you turn on your demister it evaporates. There is a stiky thread with oil control in the Forced Induction section.
  18. My boat was having starting problems, put in a new 10mm earth from the gearbox to the chassis and now its all good.
  19. Get a straight edge and run it from the balancer to the PS, I found the difference to be about 5mm, we drilled out the bracket so the whole PS assembly could move forward 5mm, the job took a couple of hours to do but now the 2 pulleys align perfectly. And it was only the PS that was causing issues, the AC and ALT are fine. Give ROSS a call and see what they say, its a common problem, albeit a easy fix if you modify the bracket.
  20. LOL, even will all the driving aids and how idiot proof the EVOs are you can still manage to find someone who cannot point and shoot. I do want a EVO 5 though for a daily, at this stage though, missus says no, unless I sell the boat, which at this stage is not a option.
  21. Have fun guys, sadly Im also not going to get there, next week though Ill be better prepared, hopefully if the planets align and the price is right Ill have some M/T drag radials, they should get me well into the 11s as long as nothing breaks. Post your times and pics RWDFTWBBQ
  22. I believe it was a 30 one. But don't quote me on that. I was pissed it happened, BUT, these things happen when you are using different parts from 3 different engines, I like to call it teething problems.
  23. The offset was off using a 25 pump and bracket on a 30.
  24. LOL.
