^^ Ohhhh were all gettin new cars hey!! Last night i ordered my 19s, today i got Ryan to get me some Coilovers, and im about to book into Auto Perfection for some nice tint and alarm!!

So Skandy what are you gonna be getting now then??

Lee whens your beast land on a dock near you??

Well the legnum was in Brisbane on March 2 - but only got cleared from Customs on March 20! Rang Toll yesterday (doing transport from Bris-Adel) And the car should be at the depot on Monday March 31. Then off to Premium Motor Co for compliance, so expecting to be on road HOPEFULY by Friday April 18.

In the mean time my parents are off to NZ for 2 weeks, so i'll have Dad's 275rwkw XR6-T to drive for a couple of weeks, from April 6 :ermm: So next week should be the only week my wife and I will be down to 1 car.

My mate owns a 309.9rwkw xr6-t ute. Youve probably seen it around. It's red with the numberplates SLOW. Driven it a heap of times including back from melbourne....To be honest id rather drive my 33.

^Don't get me wrong, I certainly wouldn't prefer the XR6T over my legnum, skyline etc. BUT it sure makes a nice daily for a few weeks rather than my sisters old clapped out VT Commodore V6 which was my other offer for a car LOL

So Skandy what are you gonna be getting now then??

dunno, been flirting with the idea of a modded s13 or an ST165 celica GT4, but a few things are changing in regard my living situation, so i know id be better off saving my money... probably means no car for 6 months or so, and the celsior was the only thing keeping me sane, should make for an interesting couple months.

yay, receive final payment on my ute lid tonite.........take it to get taken off tomorrow

securing final details for a canopy :D wagon styles. its going to need a rattle can job (from white to red) but im going to have a shit tin more storage space (its a high roof version, highest point is about 800mm above the edge of the tray :D)

    • Before starting any work, we attempted to adjust the tune. However even after adjusting it to certain extremes like completely stopping fuel, it had no effect. What fixed it was removing the Nistune Board and installing the original EPROM instead. This immediately fixed the issue. Everything should have been fine with the Nistune Board installation, so I am unsure why it has caused a problem. The soldered connector is also properly soldered. This worked when I first got the 550cc injectors, before cleaning, but that may have been a coincidence.  We ended up not installing the fuel pump hanger (at least for now). So currently running stock injectors, stock fuel pump, stock fuel pump hanger – Well everything stock except the exhaust. Now I have around €1400 in Nistune, Injectors, and Hanger collecting dust for the time being, perhaps I'll install them in the future. For now I'll enjoy the car as is 😁 Thanks a lot for all your assistance, I really appreciate all the help you have given me.
    • The turbo can’t be the issue. They’re proven to make much much power than you’re making. There is something in the setup that isn’t correct. - has the exhaust got any silly step downs? - what exhaust manifold?
    • Ok, just the way you wrote it made it look like you had the stagger the wrong way around 
    • I was getting anxious with the DVLA not knowing if the paperwork is fine or not, so I rang them. No update had been given, but I  was reassured that providing the box was ticked on the V750 then the application will go through fine. I've been checking the DVLA website pretty much every day, in the hope that it would have been done. Fast forward to Monday 29th  and I was greeted with a new screen on the check, and it finally showed as Taxed and MOT'd, woohoo! The car was in desperate need of a clean, not knowing when this day was coming it was put off. As far as I was concerned I had another 3 weeks  I'm not normally one for using snow foam, but I wanted to give it another try It hasn't cleaned up too bad considering it's 21 years old and lived on a boat for a number of weeks. The personalised number plate is J2 XBK, an illegally spaced number plate would have it read J2X BK. BK could either represent  the colour black or Baker, which is my surname. I filmed the first drive, the Youtube link will be at the end. I used the same driving route I did with the 323F V6 when I had a new exhaust installed, heres a couple of photos A few more since then Youtube video can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjkFHPzjGDw
