First things first...welcome!!! Nice looking car you have there

Crap Isaac!! Alex, just go to your "My Controls" area and change it to whatever you want it to say!!

You can only change that if you are a mamber of the club!!!! I couldnt change mine till I had joined

thanks for the advice, I just go to the gym there and thought i would snap a couple of pics after i washed her today. (Isn't it annoying how many inperfections you find when you wash a car for the first time ?!?!)

Also, I was thinking of putting the car on the dyno just to see how it goes as a starting point and also to check out a noise im hearing (there is a high pitched whistle when the turbo spools up only happens for like a second on full boost between 4000 and 5000rpm i think it is). I rang up FIST performance and they quoted $95, does anyone have any dealings with them to speak of? or anyone else to recommend?

I have only heard very bad things about fist :O

Thanks for the positive comments, there is definately an active community here.

I was actually wondering what they do in a "dyno tune" as opposed to a power run. Is it worth getting a tune if i have just the exhaust and hks pod?

WELCOME WELCOME ALEX! kaos-panda28.gif

FIST... well... as I personally haven't had any work done there, I can't say... but there are things that just don't sit right. They tend to not take things seriously. They will overcharge on items. And they tried to sell me a car which had work done and was tuned, yet still seemed to make piss-poor power figures.

Anyway, welcome, you should come along to Chilleh (it's at ChilLan this week) :mage:

Ciao, Anna xo

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?

      What Duncan said sounds right. Also, it looks like they only have the driver's mat. Not the rest. Because looking at the diagram: KG4911 is just the mat for the driver. KG4900 is the full set if I'm not mistaken and discontinued.   But, it looks like they may still have the full set for the manual S2. Might be worth checking for the other models as well as they seem slightly different. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/misc/G49 Man, I'm tempted.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?
