A saw a mighty boy for sale, it says 4wd turbo.

So i had a closer look and year it was fully evo running gear...

The owner says its stock as a rock and runs a 55 lap round QR sprint... Thats quick as...

But when you car weighs less than 600kg's i guess thats expected... :)

Would be fun!

Well im off to my "State of Origin" lunchen, then onto the XXXX brewary and then on to the game to enjoy front row seats on the 50 metre line and then back to XXXX keg room to finish the night off...

Enjoy your day people... Ill talk to you all tomorrow night when Im sober again... :)

Bring me back free beer.

Yeh used Du Point acrylic. My brother painted the car, he needs more practice before he did an out side job, just been doing mates car for around 8 months.

how 'durable' is acrylic compared to 2pack do you know?

i need my car done, and wanna get it in midnight purple/pearle, same as my engine bay. any idea when he wants to do 'outside' jobs and what he'd charge? i can rub it back too, soo all i need is some1 to spray it

Acrylic is easier to spray and make look right, 2pack is thicker and harder to spray and get looking nice. I'd say due to the 2pack being thicker it would be more durable, however you do enough coats of acrylic it will be fine, plus with enough clear it'll look deep.

He would do it now, but I doubt you would be happy. He still has a lot to learn thats all.

Normally it's around $500 plus paint for it to be sprayed.. Depends weather you supply your own cutters/polish (some people prefer certain products). You get what you pay for eh

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
