Ok, I ahve an r33 as most of your know. And I'm after some parts. I was just wondering where are some wreakers for imports and such. Or who you go to see when you want a part or panel.

I live near tingalpa, and I have been to cresta in capalaba, but want to look around first before I pay $165 for a window motor.

What is the adddress of Cresta? I just have the phone number, but have heard its good for that sort of thing.

I got my heater box & heater core for my r33 at:

All Jap autoparts (Northside)

1860 Sandgate Rd, Virginia

ph: 3865 2221

There is also a southside, but they don't have any skyline stuff when i rang them.

I also had one in my old door which you could have had for much less than that, but that has *probably* been turfed out by now, but if not give kamikazeeR33 a PM, as it was at his place.

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
