Hey Nathan, I got it sorted, what I thought was the year was just the engine capacity. I was told it was the year but didn't look close enough. I did FAST it and that matches the 95/07 build date I found.

Damo I just like the looks of them. Not sure how/if it'll effect driving or vision, but I love the looks of them, as long as they're the proper ones (and not just the simple fold over type).

Not like you can see much, but I know there are some dodgy ones, I like this kind:

I think it derived from the "JDM modders" over from the Honda groups, aus delivered Hondas dont get some stuff but Japan does; if its factory fitted over in Japan its zomg JDM must have it! Its one of those little things that sets off the car when accumulated - window visors, foglamps, indicators, headlights, tail lights, antennaes and so forth...

Mine came with window visors... GG :P

should have said something in the forums when you got it haha, i just got my r33 on the road on thursday, so was doing much the same (driving) spent quite a bit on fuel, don't mind saying haha.

either way looks nice and clean mate, good buy

Yeah Daniel too busy driving it around and getting used to it, mainly learning manual. Picking up on the small things which results in a smoother drive and less injury to the neck (or spillage of the drinks haha).

I went to get a haircut today only to find the barber shut, so instead of going straight home decided to go for a bit of a drive along the beach between seacliff and Jetty road Birghton before going home, just for the enjoyment.

a good place to go for a drive thats not too far out is head up to blackwood and then just follow main road out down past belair through windy point, drive as hard as you feel safe with and just go for a nice downhill drive, windy roads but still a great drive. (it's where i'll be tonight :dry:)

    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
