Spotted the mother of all dish/offset, on a 911 No less: :D

RUF3.jpg

oh yeah, this cruised (using the word very lightly) past the ETSA depot at St Marys this morning as we were at the gate.........very much straight exhaust as you could pick the distinct sound of turbo spool coming from the exhaust

*drools*

spotted a nice 32 on the southern express way, looked like it had some bronze wheels on, sat nice in the guard.

i was in the cream R31, just bought the f**ker haha

Might have been me, Black 32 GTR coming back from the city.

Just got her back from Boost Worx on the wednesday.

Spotted the mother of all dish/offset, on a 911 No less: :(

Thats a Porsche 993 ... hence the plates. :)

It would normally be called a 911 but renamed 993 from 1998 onwards, I'm sure.

Mate of mine in Belguim has one. Took me for a spin in it :(

ruby, pretty sure they where talkin bout the RUF statement on the plate,

porsche RUF is the equivilant of HSV in holdens world i believe..... yes?

I'm just pointing out its not a 911.

RUF is the tuning/building place for Porsches that do the 996 conversion to unmarked Porsche chassis, then badge them as 993 or 996. My mate in Belguim normally just drives over the border to Pfaffenhausen for his performance bits from them.

The model name '911' is still in use, the 993 on the plate would refer to the chassis code. The current chassis code is 997:

And for on-topic-ness, I saw a tough lookin 32 2 door in Mt Barker today. Was white black bonnet, GTR front bar, some sort of nice wheels (didn't see what though).

Gave the bloke a thumbs up for a decent lookin rig :wub:

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
