Ask for ID tag, should be 707160 -7

only if the powerfc has a serial # in the format GTR33

if its in the format RB26 then you need FCC NT or product code 414-N001 or the new EL hand controller will work as well

Thanks, forgot to ask the seller the serial number, I've taken the plunge and bought FCC3, will find out when I have the new toy.

they fit the profile of N1's 0.60 a/r compressor and 0.64a/r rears

but why would you want n1's. they are the worst of the twins in terms of lag/power/response

either stick with your stockers which are 0.53a/r and 0.48a/r rears or go for GT-SS or garrett equivs (in my sig)

you would be insane to buy 2nd hand turbos and put them on your nice fresh engine == timebomb

if you remove the turbochargers, new would be the only way

N1 aren't that good, -9s are much nicer. I picked mine s/hand on my old R, it is fine and still is.

Cool.

Do the rear pods wrap around the rear bar?

Trying to work out of their eb or type m

Pods doesn't wrap around the bar so it's type m.

Yo peeps!!! Do you know anyone that brings in second hand rims from japan that has a site which is updated with pics???

There used to be a guy on NS or Sau that had a thread with second hand rims from JP with prices

Eugene (aka MXfly or something)? I think he's trading under JDM Performance now. If he doesn't do that anymore, try importmonster.

Lawllll

If I was balls deep in a Girl infront of you guys I would still be a virgin to yalll nigas

You sure?

i got no issues with "should be fine" with 2nd hand units

the question here is, if you fit 2nd hand stockers, can you afford rebuild if the rebuild light comes on when the turbocharger fails?

if yes buy 2nd hand, if no, buy new

its a calculated risk

just be wary is all

hate to see him fit 2nd hand n1's only to have them shit a bearing

and your up for 5k rebuild to save $1000 on turbochargers

I don't trust 2nd stockers, I do trust 2nd aftermarket turbos providing it is in good condition before it is being whacked into the motor.

    • 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.
