how hard/easy is it to get stuff shipped from nz??

Most big wreckers will ship here, I get my stuff from my old work, Napier Auto supplies, (North Islands east coast) ph0011 646 8340101

If anyones stuck for parts remember thats where most c33/a31s ended up, very popular for a while with the taxi companies

OK so whats the deal with the back half of centre console (armrest part) on the late model, does that connect straight to the gear surround, or is there a little piece that goes in between the 2.

I want to do something like this.

Ah k, so if i buy front and back centre consoles and cut the back up I should be able to make something up ay?

I'll still take both if I can.

Excuse my blindness but wtf is the difference between S13 and R32 crossmembers.....i found that even my auto crossmember was same as manual...

Looking good dude, mighty clean 20 you have there :huh:

My rear will fit up to your front, Obviously you'll need to mod it to fit around your H/B Im not sure yet whether I'll use it or not but I'll let you know soon, Im modding a R32 one at the mo so if that works out it yours

those X members look similar but in the pic they are both facing the front (which is to the right in the pic) I think my auto is 5spd cause my auto xmember is goofy looking

Its clean alright only 66k on it they claim

That pic isnt mine dude.

Even the late model (series 3) manual all have the same centre consoles front and back, but yeah I've seen a few people like in that pic use S2/3 auto and merge it with manual rear console. So yeah I'm after front and rear of what you have in exhange for manual front and rear out of my Laurel halfcut (which should include boots).

    • I know it's an entirely different engine, but I noticed practically 0 difference removing or adding 2x 3in (5inch body) 400cell cats (one in each bank) with regards to sound. So changing the cat to change drone I suspect will have very very, very, very, very, very very minimal impact.
    • 200 cell cat will probably help. Do you have room to tee off a Helmholtz resonator anywhere along the exhaust? These can do wonders for drones, with a little experimentation with regards to length.
    • The car revs up through the gears much better/faster now, and fuel consumption doesn't really seem to have be affected either on a Hwy cruise, which wasn't expected  The FAB9 intake manifold has been problematic sourcing though, I've contacted Plasmaman to ask about their intake, which you can get different runner lengths spec'd, and, their different options for throttle bodies  The only real physical drawback with the Plasmaman intake is how to connect it to my current OEM style airbox, as FAB9 make a OEM style back half of the airbox to suit the larger diameter throttle body, and all that is required is a 30°bend silicone pipe to mate the throttle body to the airbox Car also goes in for some exhaust work in a week or so to fit the biggest resonator they can fit clearance wise in the front pipe to help remove some of the drone, there isn't alot of realestate under there, a rough guesstimation is it will only be about 3-400mm long and maybe 90-100mm diameter, and with a 60mm exhaust that doesn't leave alot of space for the internal volume of the resonator to do its thing I'm thinking I may need to bin the "high flow" 100 cell cat for something a bit more substantial, yeah, and restrictive, like a 200-400 cell, to help, but, I have ample room for a really large bodied cat to replace the current one which has around a 4" diameter body I may look around in the recycling bins and see if I can find a massive newish cat that was "replaced" with some new full exhaust system that the local exhaust shop in Western Sydney is doing
    • Hahah look at that smile 😂 Just like those ones on IG where they compare the husband in family photos vs husband going fishing lol. I don't think I'll participate this time, clutch isn't in and also the last time I went there were too many numpties on the cruise sessions. Nearly caused a few accidents holding up people and a few guys initiating massive kerb to kerb drifts with heaps of cars right behind them. Not to mention, there were guys on the track session using it as a power cruise session.
