Short story...

Went up to Mt Baw Baw, car was good and really fast on boost, heaps of grip but still slides nicely. Got to the top and ba bow! Split a heater hose and dumped all the fluid in the car park :P

Spent and hr trying to fix it with the ski teams tools and garage but no deal, so RACV Total Care to the rescue, got home at midnight :down:

Anyone know where I can get a heater hose kit OTHER THAN Nissan? They say only comes from Japan and looking at $200 for 3 hoses!

Thats ma girl!!!

Hahaha fkn thing!

Ask Just Jap to get some in. They do a whole GTR engine set for $300, so surely they must have a contact for an RB20 one?

JK

i mite have some off the r32. bring the broken hoses on sat and u can match em up with wats there

i thought Mt Baw Baw roads are too tight for any slip?

Ah cool...I'll pull it off and see what we can do.

Most of it is tight but there are a lot of good corners for sliding, although with so much lag I could only do a few open ones (and the surface there is mostly crap)

dang... chaser or mark II?

Chaser....hope he got it out ok :S

It was resting up against a tree and looked like roof damage but have to wait and see how it pans out. Made me appreciate my 10k Nissan. If I crash.....RESHELL :)

So it was recommended to me that to rekindle my love for the Cefiro I should give it a wash and polish (for the first time in a year of owning it).

Utilising my day off work for Uni exam study, I went and polished it up...bit of a difference hahaha! You may notice something missing in these pics...A FKN REAR BUMPER :P

Surprise! Swapped the Rega's for a set of Work Kai's (17 x 9 +17 all round) and lowered the car onto them.

Also discovered a lot of oil in the turbo intake coming from the catch can so that will be the next job, re-route that shit!

    • As Duncan mentioned it's likely a remapped ECU, like the the one listed in the link I post earlier:  https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/444260/car/444612/2099320/parts.aspx He quoted 444PS with an unopened engine and twin GT2510s @ 1.1bar boost... sounds about right?
    • That’s great to know. I spent some time looking for info last night but had a hard time finding anything relevant 
    • Ah ok the turbos looked standard when I had a look at the car. Didn’t look it was ever removed but very hard to tell. These are the best photos I have if it helps identify anything.    I know it’s basically impossible to see anything 😅
    • Its only a guess, but it likely doesn't have cams; probably a Z32 Air Flow Meter and slightly larger turbos. It was very common to chip and remap the standard ECU back in those days, but it means you won't be able to modify it further without replacing the ECU 
    • Amazing! Thanks for sending this through. Feel safer knowing a reputable shop worked on the car before I decide to purchase.    Do you know much about how they would have tuned their cars through chips?    From what I know, the car sounds like it has very small cams, the usual exhaust and air filter mods and a chip in the stock ecu. Motor sounds healthy and starts right up with no hiccups or smoke, compression is around 140-145 cold (wasn’t able to test this while it was warm)
