k as some of you have read, i wrote off my lovely black ceffy

I since have bought another but white and intend not to crash this one

Its as stock as they come, auto rb20de but the slightly more upmarket version of the old one with heated wing mirrors, rear window wiper and the beloved hicas- which i think ill keep

I plan to salvage all my mods off the wreck and continue where i left off, im also picking up a uras kit tomorrow which came with the car, also bought 25 box yesterday

Ill get some better pics once i get day light, but for now here it is

Yeah there's a mod called "hurry up, the vultures are getting hungry!" :(

Get matching coilovers and revert to A31 knuckles with 5 stud hubs! with different brands of coilovers (unless theyre rated the same) it must feel a bit weird to drive ?

Should be making a sexy dyno sheet once all that gear is in.

Kits gotta be ordered or created in Perth, cost would be roughly the same as shipping one from over East (might as well get some vented guards at the same time), a mildly modded Ceffy goes around 10-15k in Perth, but quiet often alot more (half cuts, rolling shells or damaged ones go around 5k), so again, sometimes cheaper to buy over East and get it shipped.

NZ Have Ceffies laying around for $1500 ... :happy:

Yeah this newy is servin me quite well, as for kits yeah eastern states are probly best for sortin one, I think there's roughly

15-20 ceffys at most in perth sum hiding away in backyards, sum with more than one haha.

Yeah sorry I havnt got back to u yet nic bout the parts, just been caught up in sooo much shite atm, but don't worry I havnt forgotten u haha

I'd like to get this all finished asap but work is always full of cars and I need a full weekend to get it all sorted, then it'll be off to all star garage for pipe work and tune, it's been toooo long without forced induction, I'm almost tempted to stick 35r onto the na 20 in my new ceffy haha just for shits an giggles hahaha

Do you know anyone with a spare Ceffy laying around in Perth? I might be needing one, dunno yet.

I know of about 8-10 road registered, and about another 5-10 track only, definately rare in Perth, JustCar had to ask me all sorts of shit about them because apparently they've never insured one before ?

Putting the 35R onto the RB20E ..... LOL, mad bastard, poor thing would last 5 minutes, tops, before you start seing pistons and gear teeth on the road in your rear view mirror.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
