Last time I heard a squeak under the hood, in my previous car, I thought something was up thought I'd get it checked later when I can get around to it then BAM no power steering! $500 later for a replacement pump fitted....

Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

haha looks good matty u do much country driving?? they will certainly pay themselves off quickly on country roads!! :)

those "light bars" are the best investment ya can make, bolts in place of the numberplate......well i tek screwed thru the bar into the reo just in case hahahaha

Looks good :) im thinking of getting a xf ute now, my ford got hit on the side today by a 4x4 with a big f**k me bull bar and spent 5hrs at flinders :bunny: the damage didnt look that bad but i got bad whiplash and spent all my time with a neck brace on. The guy that hade hit me was in a customers car and worked across the road where he hit me on Raglin ave, pulling out of castle plaza car park and didnt see me :P Iv got one witness(castle plaza security) but the flamin mongrel of it all is i hade to pay for the towing of my car to the towyard then to my place $296 and wait up to 3 months for payout its only a xf but it was so clean and my daily plus i spent $400 getting all my stereo put in.

I heard on the radio the other day... Apparently we are turning in to a bunch of metrosexual pansies as a high percentage of males know very little to nothing about their cars nor do they perform any work on them.

There was a few other things.. Owning a pink shirt was one of them.

So Aussy males are apparently becoming in touch with their feminine side. :S

My self I'm quite the opposite; old school line of thought. :D

So buy some cheap super cheap knuckle busting tools and do it yourself. :)

      Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.

      Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits.

      For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise

      Engine model

      By Bwagz · Posted

      I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
