does the owner also have a big "KICK ME" sign tattooed upon his/her genitals ?

-D

Please tell me you have seen the light?

Blue mesh rocks dude! :)

But no ... don't worry, its not going on the 33 :)

Any idea how much 19" Impuls would sell for second hand. Not sure I want to keep the impuls on the car.

condition of rims and tyres?

Rims are in good nick. Minor rash on one. Tyres are driveable, but one rear could use replacement due to camber wear. Seen these going for between $1100 (quick sale) to $1600 (sau for sale) and even $1500 (ebay).

Might throw an ad up in the FS section shortly.

Overall, car is in great condition. Interior is immaculate. Engine bay is tidy, no leaks. All panels are straight as. Interior is totally stock. Stock ride. Cops will have no problems with this 33. Only one problem ...

... previous owner before the guy I bought it off cut the reo bar. Gotta find me one of them. :)

Shopping for reo bar, bodykit, and 17"-18" rims.

Not bad!

Just having a cup of tea with some Gingernut biscuts. Yourself?

mmmm gingernut biscuits.....had an annoying headcold for a week now....starting to clear up now...every morningi wake up sounding like barry white

ruby, interested in swap for 18's of the same rim?

Have to weigh up if i want the cost of 19" tyres to replace first though.

I would be interested yes! For the same reason you're pondering over: replacing 18" rubber over replacing 19" rubber :P

PM me when you're ready

Shopping for reo bar, bodykit, and 17"-18" rims.

Join the list of 33 owners seeking reo bars :P

i say get a gtr front bar, and some rear pods, should be plenty, bodykits on a daily are a pain in the ass on Adelaide roads.

And get some 33gtr rims on it!

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
