in the v8's it was that the lines didn't line up properly with the rail or something like that.

and while holden has had quite a few nissan has had a few as well. do a search on silvia 200sx recalls. (not defending holden, just making a point to the green eyed import fan bois, LOL)

the aussie s15 has had zero recalls since landing in australia

from 1989 to present 45 nissan recall campains have been put out through all the nissan makes in au

and i cant find any recalls for any silvia (can any one else help)

Edited by boot_it

parents have a ve s.

power=sux balls.

but other than that its pretty stable and good to drive.

but has massive blind spot= pillars are limiting, and so is the high boot thru the rear window. cant see much through the rear mirror

I would rather Holden recall them, than to have the problems get worse over time.

People see recalls as a bad thing, when really it's not. Look even Jap cars get recalled (Oh Noes!!!!).

I think alot of people like to have a dig at Holden just for the sake of it, but quietly shut the f**k up when something with their own car goes wrong.

The fact is they spent a shit load of money on them and a pissy little thing like fuel line f**ks up i thought all that desert testing would have brought that to light!

That's exactly right. It is a pissy little thing, but atleast they picked up on it.

I know it cost alot of money, but they can't pick up every single thing when they are mass produced.

I reckon the new Falcon is going to suffer the same way.

Ill admit, i dont mind Holden but the commodores they have brought out in the past couple of years look/drive like pos they shoula improved on the old VL Turbo.

I had one and the thing never died, started first time everytime and went harder than the new commy too

Yeah but that pissy little thing can cause a big f**k up you get fuel right the first time.

All cars have there problems i just like picking on holdens

That's the reason for the recall, so they can fix it.

Or would you much rather hear of people dieing, because their V6 VE caught fire as a result of the faulty fuel line?

As i said get fuel right the first time and then we wouldnt even be talking about it and the fact that they have had other recalls just makes the matter worse.

Well if every manufacturer got it right the first time, than we would have no reason to discuss recalls would we? But the fact is it does happen.

I wonder what the reaction would be if this happened to Nissan? Doubt it would though, because Nissans are the greatest cars ever built, that never have any problems. *cough*

    • That M3 looks like it handles so well, initial slight understeer on turn in followed by oversteer which is cancelled out as steering returns to centre. Looks like such a fun car to drive. In comparison the Skyline and Sierra look like they understeer more and thus need more heavier steering inputs...? 
    • Gday   on the hunt for an rb25 gearbox and clutch to go into my R32 rb25/30 build happy to travel a bit or pay for freight for the right one From my limited research, think I need an rb25 driveshaft yoke to make it fit so I’m after one of those too located Bathurst
    • Common for single gauges to be swapped around. My 33 GTST when I bought it had a GTR tacho fitted, everything else was GTST gauges.
    • Google says for a 1998 Nissan Maxima to pull/pry, and the metal pin might even come out with it. I'd do a bit more googling, there was a few videos, find some where the shafts/needles appear most similar and compare the techniques.
    • Details: Turbo Borg Warner EFR 9180 with 1.05 rear housing Upgraded TurboSmart integrated BOV Sanded and powdercoated compressor cover in gloss black Elbow welded with wiggins clamp Speed Sensor(Not included) (Can include oil drain(heat wrapped + titanium intake pipe with almost new filter for a tad extra). Manifold: 6 Boost RB26/30 twin scroll manifold  e-MAP ports drilled into both scrolls(I was using the TAARKS EMAP KIT) Turbo is in excellent condition. Always used Penrite 15w50 Racing oil(Changed less then 2000ks). Also using the Turbosmart OP regulator and filter. Downpipe: 4inch Stainless steel with VBand inlet and outlet clamps(included) Heat wrapped Dual ports for Dyno/Wideband usage Will throw in free 2.5 inch intercooler pipe(2.5inch From turbo outlet to 3.5 inch intercooler) - Powder coated black. Turbo made 563rwkw on mainline hub dyno at around 24-25psi boost - Pump fuel. Will def make over 600kw on e85. Didn't bother as my e-MAP was through the roof with my setup sitting past the choke line. I have a cnc ported and fully built head on my 3.2. Turbine speed saw max of around 109k rpm. I'm running this on my R32 GTR, with AC, and the original power steering pump. The manifold clears the AC lines, ABS, and everything else. Although I had new AC lines because I just wanted new ones and I heat wrapped them as well. This will make more power on a slightly lower capacity motor with a higher PR. And I have since upgraded to a G45-1500. Have pics and videos if need be.  Absolutely nothing wrong with setup. Turbo is in perfect condition. No shaft play or oil leaks at all. All the work was professionally done. The transient response of this is fkn amazing. I cannot rave more about this turbo. If I wasn't chasing 4 figures, I would have kept it. $5000 NZ. Located: Auckland, New Zealand.
