Your loss, the west meets have been well organised and the people have been great :cool:

not one car jacking yet!!!

Yeah dude, I was just joking about the reason, TBH by the time I get home from work it's usually too late after I eat dinner and beat my wife :D:D

  • 3 weeks later...
Another westy here, Melton West... so West West side lol.

Will be selling up and moving back to taylors soon though, Melton is a hole and too far from anything, we do have a pretty good selsction of fast food outlets though, I like to call it Fat City, Maccas across the road from KFC which is across the road from Subway with is next to Red Rooster which is 50m away from Hungry Jacks. Then there is another Maccas, KFC, 2 more Subways a Souvlaki Hut oh and we have a Taco Bill!!!

yeah my missus is from melton and we're forever tucking into the fine eateries out there :-)

I'm from Sunbury. Actually see a lot of similarities between the two areas!

im from sunbury as well, i think ive seen your car around.

Hi guys, can someone local please tell me where you get your used import parts from? I'm in Werribee now and have a car emergency to fix asap tomorrow.

Not having much luck finding wreckers online (in this area anyway). :devil:

Thankyou for any help!!

Cheers

Kaz

just go knock on some randoms front door, their bound to know someone in the area that stocks parts in their garage .....

lol great.. thats a huge help.. actually there is a skyline with an SAU Sticker a couple of streets away.. white r33 from memory though, wrong model! Maybe I can help myself to his garage? lol

Well.. the very first night I was here, the garage was full of boxes and I had to leave the car outside that night.. besides I CBF moving it at that point!! It was parked kinda across the road with the bonnet facing a reserve.. some lovely little pricks spraypainted a horrid blue on my bonnet and my front plate overnight.. FFS! Apparently cars are left outside here all the time and nothing has happened in the last 10+ years.. first night I was here tho FFS!! Cops said 'welcome to Werribee'.. yeah great thanks :\

$100 just to replace the plate

Everything has been fine since though.. quiet area.. overly nice neighbours.. much better than Epping.

Anyway I'm in desperate need of a 180sx drivers seat and an R32 RB20 clutch pedal box.. both have broken in the space of 2days! So anywhere that wrecks 180s and R32s would be awesome.. I know where some are in Epping but I cbf driving all the way back there.. :\

    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head. (me)
    • Ha ha ha, so they stopped the bearings spinning on the one you want, but then decided the crank hub should slip instead 😛   Stick to RB, at least you can work on it yourself. And now it doesn't smell of vapour   Also I still believe there's a chance your new flap doesn't "pop", as even though the engine might breath hard, it has a direct path with no restriction to the inlet, which when on boost should pull a bit of suction for you. If you do get pressure in the catch can id be very intrigued. Time to put a boost gauge on it, and a session at the track, then solid cover your vent and do another session
