I see now,

thanks Dezz.

steady on boys...im not saying i know which 1 of the 2 it is...im just saying whoever told whoever could've easily made a mistake with the numbers

so we can assume its either 8 evo 9's or 9 evo 8's :O

i know SFA about evos...so dont look at me :P

Dezz,

It was a genuine thank-you for drawing my attention to the fact that my post seemed to be aimed at Ruffels, when that was never my intention.

It was a sarcasm-free thanks.

Phew! these forums can be a real minefield!

I gotta learn how to get what I meant in to print!

Peace

lol, relax mate...i wasnt even havin a go at ya :O

just sounded like saff thought i had the facts on this stuff....i was just pointing out to everyone that 8 evo 9's and 9 evo 8's is a very easy mistake to make :D

Don't the cops call off pursuits after 150km anyway? Then call in the air wing.

Don't have a problem with them driving fast cars. Would expect them to be supporting the local car industry tho. Parts ought to be cheaper too.

And whats with the low profile lights they are using now? Just to make them harder to spot? Or do they have 'clearance issues' =p

the point of my post was to point out that rather then doubting his information based on something youve seen doesnt mean what Ruffles posted was wrong. He was told they were EVO9s by someone reputible in the industry that would more then likely know the difference between an EVO9 and an EVO8.

Assuming that just because the car has the EVO8 wheels which i already took into account it doesnt mean it is one. Lots of people put different wheels on cars for whatever reason. GC8 STis often put bugeye rims on them and some leftover bug eyes (yeah wonder why they were left over... theyre almost as ugly as the new shape) even got sold with the 04 titanium coloured rims but that doesnt make them a the sexier 04-05 model (which if u took a similar side on shot not showing any real distinguishing marks other then the rims is hard to tell them apart).

My point being that you shouldnt have a go and be a know it all without seeing the whole picture rather then trying to be a know it all i take it on face value.

As you've found things can be easily misinterpreted on the internet... yay for non expression text.

My my.

Them's Fightin' words!

Maybe a bit of past injustice and self-doubt in there eh?

Henceforth, you may be known as, "Righteous Defender of the Terribly Misunderstood".

Well, now we know where we stand, we can all have a good lie down.

This should make your VIC guys cruises into exciting high speed chases as they will now stand a chance of keeping up!!!!!!

Unless you have a GTR, you wont stand a chance of getting away.

Nah not all the facts dude but just a thanks for the most logical explanation of the thread so far.

honestly get over the disagreement, who cares and lets start bitching over cops getting evos...

sif... all their cars should be evos and GTRs.

unless i fail making it in... then they should all have to drive daewoos and hyundais

do you guys drive around with no license plates?

you do realise they dont need to catch you, just get your plate and they have more than enough info to catch you ....thats if you dont wrap urself around a pole before they get to you...

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
