Well, I looked, I rang, I browsed ...

There are no type M bars available in South Australia ... privately, wrecking or imported. Fail :P

edit - JIS have one three advertised on their site for $350.

unless its sold... i thought they are usually pretty good with keeping their site up to date with stock

Depends on how much Paul hassles Koji to update stuff.

yeah, thats what gave me the idea chad. Plus my chances of finding a stock driver seat in the same trim pattern for the same price as a pair of coupe seats + a bit of metal and time for the fab work, its goin to be reasonably comfy too

Anyone know the rough costs of having a worn gear changed in a manual gearbox?

I haven't done a gearbox in years ... and couldn't be bothered doing it myself anyway :P

ruby this is a breakdown of getting my gearbox rebuilt

synchro ring sets-1,2,3,4

input shaft

3/4 synchro hub

synchro keys, spring and sleeves

input shaft bearing

input seal

3rd gear

plus labour in/out plus gearbox oil

total with gst $3,500

got my coilpacks! yay.

That is bad timing - just today I bit the bullet and decided I will sell all the R34 gear I had accumulated, but not yet fitted to my 34. Including a set of Super Spark coilpacks with 3 spares.

Ah ha! Missed them. Cheers, I'm browsing their site now. Will call tomorrow and pick up. :)

These be suitable for 33 series 2 Andrew ?

Edit: Hey Ruby, pretty sure they have 1 series 1 and three series 2 front facia's in stock. One of the series 2's has the factory lower lip on it too.

I've seen that one at JIS - been there for ages.

Tossing up between these 3 that I can see online:

I like this. Complete and just in need of paint.

I can throw this one on without paint for now, being white.

I like the look of the grey S2 with the lip ... but no lights, and will it fit the S1 model?

Dumb Q: is type M and spec M the same thing?

Its meant to be Type M... Spec M is something relating to one of the R34 models.

Thought so ... the two, one labeled "type m" and the other "spec m" looked identical :)

I'd wanna see the bumpers before deciding. I'm also keen on some Work mesh dish rims. :D

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
