You should get them a couple of days after Oxford transfers the money and it clears.

the buy is sposed to be ending tomorrow guys please advise if still interested!!so i can finalise the buy.

at this stage we have only 10 people that have paid up and a few that have pulled out, but there are a few remaining that have not let me know if they wanna go ahead.

so 10 ppl does that mean have to transfer $45 instead of the $41?... (since most ppl have transferd $41)

count me in for '90 RB26

will send payment once i get which price to pay lol

I paid last week, you really need to let people know if they're payment has been recieved mate. especially since the end date has come and gone...

I'd just like to know if the money has reached you or not...

hiya all

just to let ya know that the group buy will be finalised on monday and all the deposits from people will be paid to the distributor on tues or wed.

so hopefully they will be sent out to you guys by the weekend.

but if you would still like one i will be buying a few extras to have if ppl are still keen, only difference will be they will cost $41 plus postage(instead of $41 including postage)

cheers oxford.

...now that i do have the valve and can finally get around to changing the engine oil, what should i replace the oil with? (weight, brand etc)

hiya andy

i use MOTUL oils in both my bikes and my cars, they are good quality without being horrendesly expensive, 5ltrs of turbolight 4100 which is a 10/40 weight oil should set you back around $45-50 depending on where ya get it. when you do the oil change don't forget to put a light smear of oil (clean of course)around the gasket surface of the valve to assist in it sealing correctly.

as these oils have scrubbers added in them when you change it, it should come out black as this means it has cleaned the carbons and silts out of your system.

if the oil comes out cleanish so to speak it means it has not really been decarbonising anything inside the engine, which over time can lead to earlier than normal bearing damage or failure.

hope this helps.

cheers oxford

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
