OMG, that means the dealer lie to me... well, he probably didn't even know what's on the car anyway...

by looking at the photo, it looks like I don't have the full kit then, my front and back bumper are original... mmmm.... but anyway, it doesn't look too bad.   :)  

I got back home at around 3.30pm, and I did have a look at the car park, you guy weren't there anymore, just missed it.

Man don't worry bout it, your car looks hot as it is :)

Oh, i just realised where Mill Park is :Oops: ,

I live in Brunswick East but can be seen getting around Preston / Thornbury / Thomastown etc of a weekend...(still trying to get all the tid bits for my new place)

Give me a :wavey: if you see a silver R32 with rather WRX looking gold wheels, So far, with the exception of one guy in a Silver R33, all my waves / thumbs up have been fogged off... im starting to think its the NSW plates :Oops:

Car may be back on the road this weekend, if there is a brunch going on Sunday id be keen. :)

Better have a re-run then. Anyone interested I will be brunching at the same location at 10:00 (am that is Shan as in the daylight hours) and welcome all to join me.

The Lakes Cafe, Mill Park Lakes estate. This time I will attempt to have the staff ensure the fountain is running.

BTW that is DT's 34 and it looks sweet.

Anytime you want to pick up the dremel tool. I also have some thoughts on the indicators if you want to bring them and see what other tools I have in the garage.

I am planning on whipping into the city in the morning to pick up some new gore-tex so hows the afternoon sound?

Actually since I need to give you some cash, better make it tomorrow afternoon.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
