A warning to those looking at a Black R33 in morley, I found it in the quokka for 11G which claims its excel condition throughout

has had respray down rhs quarter that looks very orangepealy

has 137km on speedo... has a motor with a 230,000 note on the timing belt had been done, has white pen over the radiator thats been tried to wash off... has a RB25DE sticker under the bonnet

most likely the sticker will be removed now because I pointed it out "oh na mang it was oready rike that"

place looks like a dodge.

so warning to those looking.

that is true, when i was looking for a 33.. alot were very dodge, people saying "oh i didnt even notice that or yeah its not a major issue - car revs a 2000... lol " but i found that the 33s in the more posh area eg hillarys, thornlie (where i bought mine from), subi, etc were alot less dodge then some i looked at in nollamra, balga girawheen etc lol!

      Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.

      In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.

      I’ve read the previous posts so just looking for latest information on how people have dealt with front facing plenum is it a defect etc or didn’t pass roadworthy or was it not noticed? Have a r34 and deciding if I should make a hole on the driver side or not.  I know some people have said blitz return flow but I might get rid of the stock intake down the line for a plenum so I rather set up for that now plus I already have a standard Intercooler. Car is mainly stock  Thanks.

      Actually, if having and keeping the stock ECU is the plan, the correct answer is to put Nistune into the ECU and improve the situation, not just look at it.
