Also, going to Chasers Motorworks on Monday. Ordering in a Nistune board and also booking in my 90k km service with them.

All up, including service, supply of board and tune should cost me $1100. Hopefully they'll look after me... Cant wait to see the difference after a tune!

Chasers seems alright, a lot of nice show/ race cars are always in there. My old office in the same strip. Good bunch of guys but that was 3 years ago.

Let us know how you go with Chasers and the work they do. I would be most interested.

That looks like a nice car. Very rare combo of black, factory RS4s manual and sunroofs. These cars don't come up very often in that factory spec.

thanks mate :) i'm looking at possibly a new front end though... just have nfi what to look for at the moment!!

i wish my rs4s was black :(

I love black, but its a bitch to keep clean!!

Also, looking at a front grill...

These guys alright? Or pain in the arse with shipping and customs??

That won't fit your car as it is for a series one and you've got a series two. Check out Import Monster, I got my NA grill (pretty much the same as the one in your link) through them for about $180, and it only took about a week to get from Japan to Tassie. One like this:

Thanks mate. That should fit straight into my S2? Or do you need to modify it further to fit it?

That should fit straight on as far as I know. Series 2 grills have the holes for the fog lights, series 1 grills don't. Apart from that they are pretty standard as far as I am aware. Mine just fitted straight on when I got it.

Dont really want to buy both for the sake of seeing which looks nicer haha

Seeing as I'm located in Deer Park and fairly close to you, happy to let you take mine off and trial fit it on yours to make up your mind. :thumbsup:

Mine is the second grill and painted black but it now is a bit flakey, suppose it'll still give you an idea how it'll look.

I have the second one on my white car, but it has been painted black with the badges unclipped, so no chrome.

I'm happy with it on a white background, might be too much black for a black car.

It came like that imported, but I did notice you can get similar mesh at all the auto (and hardware?) stores :)

never had a problem at all, had the car well over two years now, and not a single problem from the po-po

(considering I've got a carbon fibre hood, bov, fmic, pod, no cat and 3' turbo back... :D)

they prob like... hmmmm volvo... nice volvo... now where's the skyline that has that bov.. *turns head*

I vote get the mesh and see what you think dude .. I think it looks way better than any of the stock grills.

Edited by atomaly

If you are not too sure better to spend less cash and get it looking a little nicer while you make up your mind.

Although most member seem to have stock grills so I'd keep yours

Heres the front of mine with the series two grill if you want to know exactly what yours would look like

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
