do i see a timing belt changed sticker at the front of the engine bay? Either way, its a good idea to have that changed just incase the japs wound the klms back.

that badge doesnt mean its been changed. its a reminder to change it at 100,000kms.

that sticker is there from factory. to remind u to change ur timing belt at 100k.

i've seen them signed and dated by a mechanic to indicate the change.

but personally, i'd go on emsta2003's advice and change it anyway. i did mine shortly after i bought my R33 because the previous owner couldnt produce the reciept, and i generally dont trust people. lol.

Oh nice ride :)

Why do i see alot of those trim seats in R33s?

Mine has velour, and it's an early series one.

ummm, wouldnt you think velour is better than State Rail Authority graffiti proof cloth trim?

ie. wouldnt you have though that S2 wouldve updated to better trim? obviously that's what i thought.

you're entitled to your opinion...

i'd take my series 2 trim over S1 any day of the week

Ive owned the car for around 4 and a bit months and never been stopped by cops... then again shes fairly stock.

How come your back windows are tinted and not the front?

      Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery

      The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.

      Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.

      In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
