Keep an eye out for an Australia Post 3kg airbag.

I reckon you'll all get them either Monday or Tuesday depending on location.

Darren I'm looking forward to your thoughts.

She should fit like a charm.

Ok, I fitted mine last night

My car is a series 2 Stagea with a Neo Rb25det and factory airbox.

I have a Apexi turbo, but it is a direct factory replacement, so everything should line up the same.

I had to trim the BOV return line spigots approx 15-20mm and the outlet end onto the turbo approx 15mm to get things to line up. I trimmed the BOV return spigot to the minimum lenght to just enough to get the clamp on.

I have not finish fitting the airbox/airflow meter yet, but had a quick trial fit. The inlet end will need trimming approx 15-25mm aswell.

The extra length is easily trimmed with a sharp packing knife and gives the flexibilty of it fitting to all cars.

Only took 10-15 minutes to trim and work out what was needed.

Overall. I am very happy with the finished product

Well done Bass, thanks.

well when i Put my 3037 on ill need bigger hole at the turbo end just wondering if they can make them with the bigger intake holes

I cant remember the size but I think it has 4" intake on them

Hey guys.

Unfortunately I've just received word that the factory is very busy and that the rest of the pipes wont leave for another 7-10 days.

Sorry to be a pain in the arse. With a fast start I was expecting a shipment to leave today or Monday, but my guy has informed me that they are running late.

I'll keep you updated as I go.

Cheers

Oh, and for those who have already received theirs, can you please give me trader ratings?

I've just discovered that they is a 'Top 15 rated members on SAU" and I'm only a few ratings away!!!!

I WANT ON THAT LIST!!!! :laugh:

Fitted mine just now, required a bit of trimming on all ends but easy to do.

Fits well, I'm very happy with it.

Cheers again Bass

Hey Pete, When you expected to be done?

Because if they are done before the 25th of Aug, Maybe you could give mine and maybe Haysey's at DECA? Saves on shipping :huh:

Yo bass,

When should we be expecting the pipes.... I just remembered about it just today.. totally forgot that I bought one of these pipes LOL

Yeah an update would be great, also some feedback on them if any one else has put theres in would'nt go astray.

There are 2 feedbacks on fitment, just have a look above

Thanks.

Hi Guys,

Sorry I havent replied sooner, I've been flat out.

The pipes should leave OS in a couple of days, and, customs dependant, I should have them a few days after that.

I reckon you might be lucky enough to have them around next weekend if all goes to plan. :(

Cheers

    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
    • I forgot about my shiny new plates!
    • Well, apparently they do fit, however this wont be a problem if not because the car will be stationary while i do the suspension work. I was just going to use the 16's to roll the old girl around if I needed to. I just need to get the E90 back on the road first. Yes! I'm a believer! 🙌 So, I contacted them because the site kinda sucks and I was really confused about what I'd need. They put together a package for me and because I was spraying all the seat surfaces and not doing spot fixes I decided not to send them a headrest to colour match, I just used their colour on file (and it was spot on).  I got some heavy duty cleaner, 1L of colour, a small bottle of dye hardener and a small bottle of the dye top coat. I also got a spray gun as I needed a larger nozzle than the gun I had and it was only $40 extra. From memory the total was ~$450 ish. Its not cheap but the result is awesome. They did add repair bits and pieces to the quote originally and the cost came down significantly when I said I didn't need any repair products. I did it over a weekend. The only issues I had were my own; I forgot to mix the hardener into the dye two coats but I had enough dye for 2 more coats with the hardener. I also just used up all the dye because why not and i rushed the last coat which gave me some runs. Thankfully the runs are under the headrests. The gun pattern wasn't great, very round and would have been better if it was a line. It made it a little tricky to get consistent coverage and I think having done the extra coats probably helped conceal any coverage issues. I contacted them again a few months later so I could get our X5 done (who the f**k thought white leather was a good idea for a family car?!) and they said they had some training to do in Sydney and I could get a reduced rate on the leather fix in the X5 if I let them demo their product on our car. So I agreed. When I took Bec in the E39 to pick it up, I showed them the job I'd done in my car and they were all (students included) really impressed. Note that they said the runs I created could be fixed easily at the time with a brush or an air compressor gun. So, now with the two cars done I can absolutely recommend Colourlock.  I'll take pics of both interiors and create a new thread.
