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:)

    • I'm thinking that this is such a small part of the problem that you could easily forego the vac pump and just achieve 90% of what you need, which is keeping the gate open when off boost. It's not as if there are not already techniques to keep a gate fully closed under boost. After all, you have boost. Just use a wastegate actuator that will allow you to apply the boost on the appropriate side, just like every external gate out there.
    • Heres another fitment photo. redrilled the pattern to 5x112, and threw my audi´s rims on. had to touch the upper control arms with grinder, because the "sharp corner" was sticking about 2-3mm on the tire path. i have the "fender lip" mostly cut off, otherwise these (too) would contact with it. 20x9.5 ET25 rear    265/30 20x8.5 ET20 front    255/30 they are temporary, and look too big for the chassis. searching for 19s to it.
    • From experience, it will come back to bite you haha.
    • Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
