Cheers.

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

I reckon the mods should implement new rules for buying/selling. Any member with less than 100 posts can't buy or sell.

That would certainly save me alot of headaches with rip-offs and buyers who misuse the words "definitely want it" and "consider it sold".

:D

Thats the new rule I'm setting for myself now anyway. I won't deal with new members anymore, and they'll only be face-to-face transactions.

;)

I've tried to push for this quite some time ago but unfortunately it was like talking to a brick wall.

I WANT RB25!! had my first drive in one today! so jelous!

Its quite a step from the 20 to the 25 with regards to spool, mid range and general doodling torque.

Now do that again with the 30. :D

haha no worries champ anytime

Installed the splitfire's and the ISC coilovers today with some much appreciated help from ryan (we love u). Some good company and great group of ppl

yep, hj's and bj's all round for me

Thanks for the reply Luke.....I already bought it cause I was told it was the best on the market (definitely the dearest).

I didn't realize there were so many features to setup......I suppose your mate set it up himself so at some stage I'll sit down with the instructions & have a go.

On the matter of belts, waterpump & gears, we may have to have a chat about your rates sometime Ryan.......I've got a workshop full of gear but no time to scratch myself lately.

yea pete no problem! ive been meaning to sus your beast out sometime soon aswell.

Went to my uncles last night (drove with my dodgy front bar :D ). My cousin just bought a 2000 WRX. Before he bought it, the car yard connected up an oil pressure gauge that wasn't working. My cousin pulled everything apart to fit a stereo, and noticed that oil was EVERYWHERE, im talking inside the dash, console, under the carpet, and pooling under the back seat, inside the stereo plugs and all over the cables etc. He's gonna take it back to them, probably the most dodgy gauge hook up i've seen. I told him to follow the line back through the firewall, cut it and tie it off so he can at least drive it. Just a dodgy story for everyone.

that sucks dave.

Does anyone know any coilover places? Looking to upgrade in the 31, been thinking racing logic, isc or D2, anyone know of anywhere good to go and possible mates rates? ENR Luke, im looking your direction :D Or any other suggestions welcome.

wouldnt recommend D2 or RL as they are a generic product where as ISC is manufactured by ISC! We are also based locally In SA so quik delivery and If anything did ever go wrong we are right around the corner.

I need some ideas. My washer bottle has been ripped out now, as the piping for the cooler won't allow it to fit back in front of the RH guard. Any R34 owners want to share what they have done? I was gonna do a custom 2L coke bottle job but might get something more reliable!

      Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery

      The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.

      Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.

      In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
