So I take it the workshop doors be open on Monday? If they are and I'm not too rooted from the weekend, I'll grab the trailer and make a trip up to yours for the bumper etc to get it out of your way.

Back into it this week and a GTR recevied some enduro preparation.

Front and rear diff coolers

Transfer case cooler and a cooler for the seq hollinger.

The coolers all have air guides to prevent damage and to force air towards the core.

Weve used top shelf tilton pumps and they are being controller by independant temp switches in each diff etc.

The car also got a rather large fuel cell and fuel system revamp with a dry break filler and tank venting for fast fills and 0 fuel spilling.

Photos of the tank latter once the boot is finished off.

Next week have the insight motorsports S2000 to re cage and an EVO 7 in for a mild steel cage.

On average a basic half starts at $660 and can go up to $1300.

A full cage starts at $2400 and can go a high as you like.

Most full cages people opt for a few extra bars over a basic cage and they end up spending around $3000.

The majority of half cages end up around the $990 mark once you add things like harness bar, double diagonals etc.

Just a quick mention for a heap of people who have pm'er and emailed.

I'm closing off orders this coming Friday the 16th.

Orders placed and paid for before Friday will be completed on time. For a week or two after the 16th I wot be taking orders.

We are planning a renovation of the workshop to further increase the fabrication equipment we can fit on the ground level. New mezzanine floor is being put up to store the supercars on which will double floor space for fab work.

Expected down time will be 7-10 days but for guys who are needing sumps and other components urgently get in this week.

I was actually looking at a photo of the "big bannana" in coffs harbor just before.

The nanna is ever so slightly larger than the Vw kombi,

That friggin trailer is way larger than the kombi. there is a new bigger banana, we just need merchandise now!!

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • 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.
