omg very very nice......!!  

all you need now is to put the initial D  "Fujiwara Tofu Shop" sticker on the side and perfect!!!  

just wondering, how much did you buy it for?

don't do that unless you can drive like Takumi. *cough*riceboy*

looks like it's in good condition. Is it an original Panda paintjob or aftermarket?

How much did the 86 set you back?

Thanks for the replies. I really didn't expect such nice ones.

I'm not changing the exterior anymore then it has been modified, and especially no chrome wheels! lol.

It cost all up $15000 which is pretty cheap for a Trueno. They are about 26000 aus in japan for an imacculate condition.

The work so far is

Ae92 4AGE - Converted to carb

2xDual 45mm Solex Sidedraft carbs

272 HKS inlet/exhaust cams and gears

Cusco 2-Way LSD

Roll Cage - (not installed in those pics)

BB Garage Front Bar

Cusco Coilovers with pillow ball mounts (camber, caster etc)

Some crazy fuel pump which is incredibably loud

I'm gonna go and talk to proengines here about some pistons and higher compression to tide me over while I build up a 20V and get back to EFI.

I don't think I"ll sell her just yet, but I know where to advertise if I do decide to sell :)

The original Paint code was 2T7 so I'm not sure if it is original, but it seems to have been many colours in it's life. The last colour being metalic blue.

Thanks heaps of the supportive comments guys.

Cheers

Mark

:blast: :headshot:

OK! I'm likely to cop a bashing here, so please excuse my ignorance :cheers:

I've seen these "Trueno's" in Best Motoring against the GTR's, whats so good about them? "my ignorance will show here" I'm trying to work out what you guys are raving about, at least to me :O it not the prettiest of cars. Although I'm assuming it must have a hell of a motor/running gear, to pump the GTR in the BM vid.

Can someone please explain?:cheers:

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
