leech - Car looks great. Very nice ;)

I might be in the market for a black series 2 in a few months too !!! I had a phone call yesterday from the assessor that is dealing with my car accident, and he said it was a write off ;) So I'll be looking for another once the money comes through...

Sounds like SVI have been treating you good :)

Hi Jay - good to hear from you - was wondering what was happening with your car! I don't suppose you can get at any of the bits off the car - you would probably make a few bucks selling them off---

Anyway - if you change your mind at decide to look at a white r33 with big chromies and exhaust then PM me - mine is for sale!!! ;);)

hey jay good to hear you may beback on the road with another line. SVI have been good to me i will admit very informative and keeping me in the loop. IT is also good that they tell you what the cost will be after everything eg the car, shipping, complience etc etc. that is the main reason i didnt go with Prestiege as they were like we can get you the car for like 22K but the disclaimer says doesnt include tyres changing items etc... only thing i will say is set a budget and stick to it though. i was told for what i wanted it should be between 22 - 24k however this one that i bought went for a little more at auction and i had agreed increase my max to the 25k just as a safe gaurd... oh well i am getting exactly what i want so i cant complain to much. and a few extra $$$'s now may save me a couple of thousand later.

Well i know you are all getting very sick and tired of me raving about the car hehe but SVI have now picked it up and taken it back to get complience done WOOT also the stereo was not stolen so i am pretty happy with that considering i still got my alpine one from the pulsar... i will see which is better then sell the other bits off for a few $$$. anyways here are a few more pics and a big thumbs up to SVI again been great through the whole experiance mick even did a walk around of the car for me tl tell me exactly what may need the dent doctor and what wouldnt all up he said it was pretty damn good eg a couple of pin size dints and one small dint i think...

so yea the 4th picture looks the best :P

    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
