All's I'm saying is i'm not putting a f**k ugly flat hatch on it, it will look gay. I want it to still look like a 180. I just want it to be fast, which will involve a lot of aero components like Wings, canards, splitters and diffusers. It will also need a lot of power to be competitive. It ain't gonna grip like a F1 nor be as fast as my Drag Car but I still want to go fast.... maybe as fast as a V8 Supercar at least :woot: .

anyone looking at doing a brake upgrade for there car, im getting rid of my brembos of the 33 vspec. fronts are 324mm rear 300mm. t4 slotted rotors and remsa pads.. 500ks old if that. 1000 tops. let me know if your interested, i want to put the new ones on and get rid of them in one go.

when would these be available? i'll be down that way mid feb

i was looking at towards end of jan or there abouts. if your keen on picking em up then i can sort it all out so they off and ready for you. car will prob only do 200km per month. so will be bout 1500ks of light driving on rotors and pads.

nice... ive gone to singe now... bit of a delay so i dont get in trouble as often haha.. be a good upgrade for the gtst.

nah mate, the GTST is dead. Hit some guy that ran a red light. Parted it out and got insurance so I got some good coin back.

I want actually going to buy an R34, then decided on a R33 or R32 so I could spend the money I saved on house renovations.

I have a pair of HKS2530s here lol (Thanks Ben)

I wanted a dark grey, non vspec just so it was a bit cheaper.

Agreed value with Shannon's insurance was a win. Then bought the wreck back for $2k and sold it in parts for well over $10k.

So, I'm not complaining haha. Been slack though. Been driving a 1995 corolla around for the last 18 months. Haven't settled on what I am going to buy yet

lol... saving money though and not throwing it into the bottomless pit.. i wanted a vspec or nur for the aero kits so i didnt have to add much to it asthetically, prob cheaper your way though lol.

Changed my gearbox oil today to some Redline. I thought the oil that was in my car would be extremely low due to the gearbox noise and crunching but it turns out i still had 2.5L of oil left.

Haven't got to drive the car faster than 2nd gear yet since i'm still at work so hopefully it solves my 5th gear crunch and i don't have to buy a new gearbox!

Fark yeah my Nascar Brembo Brakes tunred up in the mail today.....sucks I'm at work, will be the best 15th Bday present ever.

Fixed

You have far to many Birthdays.......

I'm getting a bit keen for a new car. I said I would wait till this year so I've kept the promise I made myself, but think I should wait till I have my engine up and running in case it decides to self destruct 4 days after it starts

    • 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
