G'day crew. Here's one for the motoring buffs out there.

Can anyone quote the Australian prices for the '89, '94, '98, 2002 and 2008 Porsche Turbo's?

Maybe I'm lining these up against equivalent GT-R models and their prices(and yes, I'm aware only the 32 was an 'official' Australian car).

Maybe I'm think of a value/ bang-for-your-bucks scenario.

Maybe the new 35 has made it's way onto my Lotto list( after my 32 is finished, naturally!)

Maybe Motor's May issue had a slight discrepancy in it's comparo of the four models on the track...but there wasn't a Porka out there, either.

Maybe I secretly like those overpriced German cars, just not as much as I love Nissan's finest!

Maybe I'm just being a little nerdy.

Anyhow; pricing of Porkas? Anyone? My local dealer has sweet f.a. of a clue about the current range; they'll not remember anything about the older models! Plus they're shut right now, and this crazy idea just came to me...

comparing the R33 and R34 GTR's with the same year porsche turbos is futile. Apart from the R35 (and possibly the R32) the equivelant porsche turbo models (993 & 996) were so far ahead of the GTR's in terms of outright performance it wouldn't be fair to compare them.

To my knowledge, the R35 is the only model with comparable performance to a porsche turbo - the older cars were designed to compete with the lower 911 models (Carrera, 4S, etc)

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
