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

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
