Can we have it shipped/trucked up here?  And any idea how much that would cost?  

3:00am Ghostrider do you sleep? lol

1. You would have to get your cross member and rear trailing arms to SA.

2. After modification they would then be reshipped to QLD.

3. 0300, I am a security consultant and work a lot of nights.

4. American Beer? get a few GMD's into you, a six pack goes down like water, but it kicks like a mule.

Can anyone recommend a good Aussie intercooler?? I've priced up DNA + Hybrid + GCG and they are all roughly the same price. Im hoping to fit a GTR size behind my standard front bar (600x300x76 core size).

All the places I have contacted have not been able to give me an exact pressure drop

(I figure it will be about 2psi) or tell me if they have been bench tested. I think DNA will be my final choice, as I have heard good things about them.

I have thought about using a standard R32 GTR intercooler as many people recommend them, but want the w**k factor of a nice new, clean and shiny intercooler behind my front bar. I've been told that R32 GTR coolers only have 0.5 pressure drop across the cooler and that if they were S**t, they wouldnt use them on a GTR, but I'm not convinced.

Re the Shirts - I'd be keen for one - what colour and design????

i went with the hybrid as i got it for $600+postage brand new, i read on the powerdigger site that the hybrid 600x300x75 intercooler had "0.5psi loss at up to 40psi" and can cool around 500hps' worth of air flow. hope that helps!! had the piping made from 2 1/2" press bend mild steel for $450 installed, all up about $1100 fitted..

Alright looking to put coil overs in my car. I see the easiest option to be an s13 setup, changing to a macpherson strut setup in the front using s13 hubs and so on and going to R32 style brakes at the same time. Anything wrong with my thinking here?

Also for the rear I remember reading someone has put s13 rear coil overs in a R30, I just can't seem to find the post, I was just wondering if they bolt straight in or is some type of modification needed?

I have only really had a quick look at a silvia suspension setup so I'm no expert.

Also interested in the replacing of the boots as mine seem to have dissapeared over time, but for a DR30

Cheers for any help

the S13 rear coilovers fit up all good except they are either 2 hole at the top at the back, whereas DR30 are 3. basically u have to drill an extra hole to line up the S13 coilovers at the top. pretty simple job though. just stick one thread in an existing hole, then drill a one that matches up on the other side. i havent done this to my car but todd with DR30 on these forums has, im sure he will pipe up soon to confirm what i just said :rant:

i mite be interested in a shirt depending on it's design and price i guess.

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
