You just have to be patient :pwned: Ebay can be quite the treasure trove, I picked up my exhaust on ebay as well, for ~$200, not too bad for a trust exhaust.

Basically I'm in no hurry to do my mods as I want to make sure I do them right the first time, so I'm just waiting for the right parts to come up at the right price. I didn't honestly expect to win the cooler, but I guess coz it was finishing while most people were at work I got lucky :whistling: I was within $10 of being out bid :)

Well hey, it's up in the "taxi" section so... why not here i guess...

Sava

No I quit there about a month ago... heading back to Uni to finish off my degree... I used to see (hear) your car go passed nearly every morning >_<

Cheers dude, and yeah Calder started to stuff things up when we were running the show, bureaucratic bullshit as far as I'm concerned... See what these boys can pull off...

Seems only natural to post it here as well...!

Here's my baby, it's a GTS-t factory manual turbo in solid white - exactly how I wanted it! It's stock atm but in the pic it has TEINs and a muffler. About to attack it with the mods...should be a fair bit different by the end of the year...decisions, decisions ;)

PS: 4 doors ROCK! - they look the greatest IMO...

PPS: AutoTrust I don't particularly like 33 sedans, but I'd take yours in flash!

Hi all, i own a R33 series one 4 door.

Bought it about 5 months ago now in stock condition clock read about 98,000kms

Added 2 1/4 inch from cat back (its a non-turbo), 18" rims, uni filter air filter, window tinting.

Only other things worth doing is slappin a body kit on and then lowering my ride but as i frequently take drives up yourke peninsula in sa, some of the roads can get a bit harsh and im worried that ill be scraping the entire way up.

Have had a few tiny probs, auto choke is starting very low at times, and a fuse blew when i was changing my stereo over......but far out, thats about it. Nothing (touch wood) has gone astray as yet.

Ohhh and yeah, its an awesome ride, really pleased with the purchase.

All the best guys.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
