yeah my chrome fail comment was a little broad

As long as its not a genuine m3, has altezza tail lights but no engine mods and 3 tv's per vehicle occupant, those rims are acceptable..

their those CCW wheels yeah? they look damn good and are pretty cheap too

Last time I priced up a set of CCW classics (when I still have the Celly), I was looking at a little over $6k shipped...

really? on theyre site it says theyre $2500 a set. how much was the shipping?

edit: even if you went the powder coat and arp stud route youd only be adding around $850

Shipping was was an astronomical amount. Somewhere around the $1500 mark. 22lbs a wheel, in customs sizes and specs with upgraded hardware. Though it 'starting at $2500' 3 years ago when I was looking at them.

I am getting so f**king excited about this car and everything it represents. Starting weight of 1180kg for the base model, and 1240kg for the range topper, with the same power as the last locally delivered S15, and all with fuel economy good enough to make it suitable for daily duties... Yeah, I'm pretty keen.

Has been confirmed by Toyota for sale in Australia, and Subaru won't be far behind when they figure out how they're going to market it without their symmetrical all wheel drive safe tag, Tom's and TRD are already looking at warmed up versions, Toyota themselves want owners to modify and personalise theirs. So refreshing.

Non turbo 2.0 litre boxer direct engine with 147kw, STi BRZ may be turbo, 6 speed manual, or 6 speed paddle shifted auto, LSD, rear wheel drive, and all in a 1200kg package.

As for price, Toyota is aiming for the low $30k range.

Yeah according to Speedhunters, they have already released info to the Nippon Aftermarket Committee so manufacturers and tuners can start production of aftermarket parts! New car owners will have the option to change out the suspension and add aero mods on day 1 of ownership!

I am getting so f**king excited about this car and everything it represents.

THIS!!! What a revolution. Best thing a car company has done in a long time.

Cant believe Nissan tried their darndest to exclude the GTR from the aftermarket scene, why not encourage personalisation and stimulate the aftermarket economy!

In short, the car gives me a hard on. Looks wise, not so much, but the potential.... huge.

I'm a big fan of the way they look.

That second photo I posted shows a couple more or less confirmed options for when it goes on sale in North America/Europe, fixed back seats, harnesses, and TRD gauges.

It's something I would never have expected from Toyota, openly embracing the aftermarket. I imagine the options list will be pretty immense by the time it hits dealer floors here.

    • 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. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂
