I'm need to borrow a stock boost solenoid for obvious reasons ASAP. So *somebody* must have one sitting in there car, or garage unused.

If you have any sort of bleed valve or other boost controller installed, you will have a spare one. Hell, even if you don't know what it is, I'll come show you. If you have any sort of boost controller, it will be sitting in your car spare and unused.

Needs to be an R33 valve, although R32 could be the same (anybody know for sure?)

Need it ASAP (by wednesday at the latest). Will return the following week.

come on.. don't make me slap you all...

u all got one.. i just need to borrow it .. i'll come by and pick it up, even take it off your car for you (5 min job).

Most of the time its just sitting in there for decoration, as most workshops just leave it bolted on and disconnected once they install a bleed valve or EBC.

raza: thanx, if u could track it down that would be great. Its a little cylinder thing about 5cm high with a couple of house points into it on the left strut tower (just below power steering reservior). Most places just leave it bolted in. If they put on an EBC they should give it back to you.. its yours after all.

riggaP: why else does one return a car to stock for a day? Mine was long since removed unfortunately, so don't have one to stick back on.

Thanx Ula.. yours is a GTR though - doesn't it run different stock boost to the gts-t's ?

will keep it in mind if I can't find one of a GTS-T

Eastern suburbs preferred as well :D but will come collect anywhere if i have to.

Well I had lined up with Raza.. hehe... ok, might be easier seeing as you're eastside too.

I work 9-5 during the day in Box Hill. I'll give u a call tonight most likely. Can meet somewhere lunchtime and borrow it. Will be much appreciated!

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
