Thats awesome news for you!!! im looking forward to getting a similar phone call in a few weeks haha

What sort of stagea did you settle on? I think there are a few stageras in perth now

Main points -

ask them if it is black wiring.

check with them to see if it meets australian standards for alarm/immob's. (you can get lower insurance premiums)

also ask if it has the ability to add things on later. a lot of aftermarket alarms allow you to add (for very little cost - $15 to $50) things like glass breakage sensors, shock sensors, tilt sensors, as well as automated window shut (if you arm it with your windows down it will automatically wind them all up - very cool).

as well as automated window shut (if you arm it with your windows down it will automatically wind them all up - very cool).

--------------------that would be cool. looked on ebay and mongose seems to be a reputable brand, just gota check which model it will be, here are sum pics of the new stag

Mongoose are a decent brand. Cyclops also do very well (heaps of add-ons as well as heaps of places stock them).

Another thing - make sure you get an alarm immob that will recognise that you have a turbo timer and have a delayed immobilisation,so that if u fit a timer later you dont come into dramas.

Go to www.dynamco.com.au and have a look around. you can build your own alarm with features you want.

Hooking up the window winders is pretty easy - just a couple of relays and some clever thinking.

Is it an autech version?

$17k plus freight and rego? how about compliancing etc?

Do you remember how much it was in Yen to purchase the car initially....? Dont need to answer that, im just trying to organise my own car atm and still getting a feel for what i should be getting for my money etc

no, i wish, it was only has the front bar

$17k plus freight and rego? how about compliancing etc?

that includes compliance and after market warranty, 5 yrs. spotted the car a few months back and inquired about it and found out it was still i jp, put down my deposit a week later and have been playing the waiting game, think im gettin a good deal as it has twin sun roofs, leather and electric seats, some sort of coilovers, maybe ohlins, 3 inch cat back zorst , rims and the body kit

not sure what it cost in yen as i saw it advertised on their website in aussie dollars. when chossing ya car from jp try to keep the mods to exhaust, rims and suspension. any bigger mods will make ya compliance price increase, woul think you would be looking at 14 to 15 thousand for importing yourself. dont know if you have thought of going for 1 already in aus? shure it costs a few more grand but if u can get an afftermarket warranty it could be well worth it, saved me about 4 grand on my first stag as the gearbox went= 2 grand, coilpacks went= $900, a relay behind the dash stuffed up+ another few hundred. the relay and coilpack seem to be common problems so be wary .

Nice S2. Looks great! Plenty of good deals around on S2's if you are patient... Mine took 8 weeks to find (S2 RSV RWD with similar fruit and only 59kms) but is still not home yet. Been in Brissie being complied. Was finished 2 weeks ago but waiting for compl. plate appr. etc. (taps foot...) Have been through this twice before but still hate waiting! Is your car 4WD or RWD?

Jerome looks nice ;) cant wait to see it on a cruise...might have to organise a chrissie or new year stagea meet so we can have a looksie :)

was hoping to make this cruise and all was looking good but a few delays and well, just gona have to be the next one

also found out that the car had auto start but it was removed for compliance :( . tryin to get it back though, dont like my chances

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
