The rim is a Desmond Regamaster, i think production stopped in the late 90's. I like the rim because it suites the era of the car.

Not the best pics but you get the idea

Al,

Shit, these are nice rims... Hopefully it's fixable, cos I know how awesome they are and not many of these around.

Hope you get this sorted.

Cheers

Grant

Hahaha, the Business policy is straight off their website.

I've personally bought something there before, but did pickup and there were no issues with it (a cusco strut bar).

Means a lot to hear this though as I was about to purchase a swathe of stuff and it might pay due to check them over well.

Thanks mate.

judging by the first post, it would have to be *i just got edited because i can't help myself*? plus i know he had a container come in recently (mate of mine does quarantine on all his shit)

always seemed like a nice enough bloke, although i've never bought anythign from him, hes seems to be on the straight and narrow compared to alot of other people... if it is him, his english is a bit fobby at times, maybe he came across a bit hostile when it wasnt his intention? did he offer any reason as to why it was cracked? i know alot of his stuff comes in and boxes and he doesnt open it like mentioned, because for everyone one of these cases, there will be 100 others that say 'whose been going through my stuff? i thought these were brand new/you ripped me off'

not defending him in this case, just trying to understand whats happened (if it even is him lol)

So we can form a lynch mob and ridicule someone who crashed his car, even if by himself, not 'trying' to hurt anyone, and using actions most of us here could admit to..

But we can't name someone who would screw over ANY ONE of us? Someone who tries to take advantage of a system that cost's us money? Someone who knows they'll never feel sorry when crap hits the fan?

It's a rather convenient excuse saying go to Ombudsman's etc, when we here could make the difference. :<

Some one PM me the name.

if this is the attitude displayed by traders, then we will look into it.

SAU traders are expected to be reasonable, if they aren't we will get rid of them.

Your thread Ash, on fordxr5turbo.com seems to be well-accepted > hopefully well-heeded.

Good communication and empathy on your part! :thumbsup:

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
