Just wondering if anyone knew of a Burgundy R33 with skylinesaustralia.com stickers on that was recently written off?

Nothing on the car that would really stand out body wise but has an after market exhaust and a big fmic, bov, etc.

Also R32 4 door, white, with lots of Driftwa, tenagah, and exedy stickers on it, big fmic and coil overs, had an under bonnet fire.

Just chasing any info on the cars and mods etc

we are getting about 80 wrecks a weeks coming through the gates at work, and these are two that caught my eye.

just curious as to what mods they have and if they are worth bidding on when and if they come up for auction.

we are getting more and more imports/performance cars through now as insurance is writing them off with sometimes only fairly minor damage.

we also have a few wrx's and evo's etc in the yard so if anyone is chasing parts/motors etc let me know and i will give you a heads up when i see them getting ready to be auctioned. you'd be very suprised to see what the average wreck gets sold for here :(

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
