if it involves a pm it mustve been a fair whack.

got a clutch, now i need it fitted, recommendations/prices?

my mate shannon got his fitted by a local guy to me with a hoist in his shed, and there is also Just Jap @ jacobsen cress. they do excelent work great rates and i just had my water line replaced from the turbo with them :) from me

Thats cos you dont have a front diff sitting right under your oil filter, and you have skinny little arms :)

it would mostly be hard due to your fuel rail and plenum being right over the top

this is the cooler/relocation kit that i got (not using the relo kit cos i already have one).

HKS rip off, speedflow lines

$239

Question:

Braided lines are considered defectable by the police right? So what happens if you get Pirtek to do the lines. I'm sure their standards exceed AS and therefore meet ADRs if used on motor vehicles?

:)

Reuben, I passed Regency with my oil cooler installed with Speedflow lines and Earls fittings... they didn't have a problem so long as it's mounted correctly and the lines aren't tracing all over the engine bay (ie. nice and tidy)

I'm sure Pirtek would do the lines also :)

My turbo oil line is braided from Pirtek. The water line is stock.

My auto oil cooler line is braided from Davies Craig.

My brake lines are braided from Maltech.

^^ this work exceeds stock standards so I cant see how its possible to be classed ultimately as illegal modifications

thats the thing, Ive got a massive list of mods but could only count a couple that need to be engineered. doing that atm, pretty much.

nothing wrong with getting other braided line made up by Pirtek, the only one that they can't do are the brake lines and i'm pretty sure that if you ask them they will refuse to do it anyway. If you get another place to make up brake lines and they don't put the ADR sticker on them then they are illegal and you will fail an inspection.

Here's my oil feed line the Pirtek made up;

Hence why (as radical as it is) my bike is completely ADR approved.

As much as I've been tempted to remove certain stickers for show purposes (see below), I haven't or else they are no longer approved brake lines.........they could then be anything!

Don't suppose anyone's got banjo bolts for the front R33 calipers lying around, or know where I can get them (most wreckers prob won't part with them)?

Wanna fit the 4 pot calipers and ditch the 2 pot ones.

:D

try Steve at Nisswreck or Pete Hall at Jap Motorsport Roo

Thanks Pete. Was going to drop in to Nisswreck on Saturday if I have no luck with the brake mob on The Parade today. While I'm out there, I'll swing past JMS. Going to lunch shortly to do all that. :D

so ive found out that my engine in my car is from an R32 GTR V-Spec and was purchased from Autotech of all places , and had 80,000kms on it at time of being swapped into my car which in actual fact means its done over 100,000kms , never been serviced and had the speedo in the half cut wound back.

lol. yeah i heard about it around then LOL gotta love corporate email... im glad that news of important things sweeps adelaide quickly

As someone who moved here from interstate, it constantly surprises me how tiny Adelaide is - especially with stuff like this. You find out that your neighbour knows a guy you work with, or that some guy you met on the internet knows a friend of yours, or ... the list goes on .. It boggles the mind :P

Nene has some serious real estate. :P

A project I'm working on at the moment, and I found this:

"Nene Valley". Not far from "Blackfellows Caves"! :P

Ah ... back to work.

    • 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.
