I WAS going to download and watch this show - thanks for the spoilers Damo :spank:

Haha dont get me wrong, its a good show to watch, but man they drag it out! Series 2 is a goer apparently, thoroughly looking forward to some substantial results haha

Big problem is that it is a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG way to tow a car home. And my car is my daily, so it would be an even bigger problem if I broke something. I remember the old days at AIR - every 2nd car broke something on a big drag day. Plus it is the definition of sucking to be expected to drive 9 hours there, drag all day, then drive 9 hours home. If you don't do that then you have to pay for one or 2 nights accommodation thrown in the mix and be away from the family .... the cost all up is just too high (for me anyhow).

car transported home is 300 bux already sorted if needed and split accomodation will run u like 60 bux and theres something pleasing about using ur daily as i do and then running it down the strip and still make the trek it shows if not anything else its a full tuff street car no trailer queen :cheers: plus all the boys have a great time man camp rocks few brews a larf and drag racing does it get better :worship:

anyone know how i can work out what dash fitting i need for 80mm and 60mm piping?

Or someone got a chart to convert mm to dash size?

80mm = 3 1/8" = -50

60mm = 2 1/3" = about -35

i think im right? you gotta convert mm to fractional inches, then fractional inch to dash

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
