G'day All,

Hey, I've searched around on these forums, and have seen several posts raving about these new EL dials for R33's. I think guys here such as pushead and scotty have these, and have read their thoughts on what they're like

Well, I found a set of these on eBay here, http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...item=2446012735

So my question is, is it worth it? Fortunately I'm in Melb too, and also have an auto........so far so good. The one on offer also, has less km's then mine too so yeah, its all good. :cheers:

Just wanted your guys thoughts before I place a bid an all.

Cheers!

Yo,

Yeah, it was me who recently bought a set, and despite my initial hesitations, I'm loving them now. :cheers:

They're a pretty funky way of ricing up your car, if of course that's what you're going for. hehe, but all in all, no complaints. Personally speaking, I was originally going to go for the simple EL dials, but opted for these instead........personal opinion I guess, just thought these were cooler. hehe :D

Hope that helps...........yeah get em, you know you want to. ;)

yah thats cool...just helping out chubby so he dosent pay to much for something that is worth much less...if u have time u could also fit it yourself.

what i dont' understand is why the normal el's get sold for like 250 bucks?? whereas these are half the price??

Hey,

Errr, my MP33's were sold aaaaages ago!! hehe, how much are they going for? Got myself a set of X14s now. How'd you know I had these???

But I digress, nah, not me, and no I'm not selling my el dials also. Sorry, I actually got mine cheap. 130 at some place in Springvale. I suggest you ask Pushead, cos I've already forgotten the place's name. I'll see if I can track it down for you. But sorry strutto, can't help you out in getting any more. I The place was going to charge me 95 to get them installed, but fortunately the the boys from JSpec helped me out and they did it for me for free!!..............boy those guys sure know have to look after their clients. :D

I am bery bery sneaky... :)

Did a search on all your posts to see where the EL's came from. Saw you had a set of MP33's for sale from ages ago during the search.

Checked out the eBay sellers other items for sale and wadda ya know... hes selling some MP33's too! Seemed like it couldn't be coincedence but hey you know what they say... great minds...

He's got them listed for $900 no reserve... Good price? Not much of a golfer myself... Stupid tiny ball makes me so cranky...

If anyone can track me down a set like the ones on eBay... I'd be most thankful and interested...

Oh, wow, that is very clever!

$900!!, err tell him he's dreaming! keke, actually if they're in a good condition, then its about the market price...... sold mine for 990 though hehe, but that was like a few months ago, so yeah, its all good. Stupid ball, yeah tell me about it, reason why I sold mine to begin with, couldnt use those ones.

Oh well, back to the topic, where's that original post? I cant find it.

Hey All,

Thanks for your input, and thanks Scotty for showing me your car. Nice ride dude, love the rims. Anyway, tried calling motorware and they don't have them for Skylines. Only for Honda Civics and the like.........Guess there's a greater rice market for these cars.

Oh well, still keen to get these, I guess depending on how the auctions go, I'll get it from there.

Thanks again all for your comments.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
