I have just finished a spending spree on my car today, ending with some discounted products from Supercheap (10-20% off stuff :) ). Heres my list for the month of Jan 15th-Feb15th (I get paid monthly on the 15th).

I am still waiting on the top 4 things from Nengun, ordered 3 weeks ago today :D

-Remote Oil Filter Kit

-Apexi TT + Harness

-Wheel Spacers

-HICAS Lock Bar

-DBA 4000 Rotors

-Ferodo Front Pads, Lucas Rear Pads

-Mobil 1 Engine Oil

-Oil Filter (from Nissan)

-Oil Flush, Radiator Flush, Brake Cleaner, Ultra Cool Radiator Coolant

-Demineralised Water (5L, is that enough for the GTR cooling system?)

TOTAL=$1,344

This month I hope to buy a PFC D-Jetro (+ Harness, Nipples & Sensors) and get the HICAS and TT fitted and the computer tuned.

Good Fry B)

Tom

,4 Feb 2006, 04:17 PM]1.3k thats nothing :P i'm not going to dare add up what i spent this month on my car, it will make me cry :D

hahah, dooo iiiitt! B) **shakes fist

Well, The PFC and tune is gunna cost me about $1600 anyway, so that beats my 1.3k this time around, I might even have to get a PRofec B-Specc II as well coz I have no boost controller at the mo ;) . This is the most I have ever spent on my car in a short period of time though.

ive spent minus amounts on my car this month :P

ive got alot of parts sitting in the shed, new and used, so im trying to sell stuff now that i want to sell the car :D

hell, ive even got brand new custom number plates that i havent even put on the car yet, still sitting at the DPI... should sell those.

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
