it was a dip with no warning signs that was behind me before i could even say "what the f**k is that."

had another look just now. castor brackets are bent, castor bushes are leaking, cooler core has been bent and damaged a little bit, bottom edge of the cooler and the pipe work has been pushed back about half an inch, exhaust is now a smaller diameter than it was, front guards need the lip hammered back up again (tyre has gone up into the guards, caught on the lip and pulled it back down), leading edge of the sump has taken a small hit but looks fine from the front (if not, kts high cap sump kit here i come), but the rear end and the rails look fine. the castor brackets absorbed most of the impact at the front end.

but yeah, my fault, even though there were no warnings, if i hadve been paying attention to the road instead of my passenger id be right. shit happens.

:) Yep, pretty much, the great bin incident of '08 :)

lol.

probably. but itd be a lot more effort than its worth.

and they could easily come back with 'you were exceeding the speed limit' (not by much, but i was, plain and simple) and 'if your car wasnt so low, it wouldnt have been a problem', which is true. if i had actual ground clearance i wouldve just scraped my exhaust.

Holy crap! Pretty lucky there Dave i'd say!

Oh and Luke, any tricks when fitting or is it pretty straight foreward?

Guess it will be off with the HKS pods then, just for the extra points with the ladies :)

Piece of piss really, just a tight fit. Handy tip: Fit the AFM's to the box first, then fit the box into the corner, then attach all relevant pipework.

If you need a hand, let me know :)

Will do man, may inlist your help mate, give you a chance to give it a look over too :(

Sounds good mate, just let me know when and I'll be there.

I got mine from someone selling it on NS, managed to pick it up for $450.

As for the bigger sump, the motor will have to come out, a mod I'd love to do on mine but I've always said if the motor comes out, I'll rebuild at the same time

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
