Manne Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 That's ok. Worst case scenario I'll do the tint, guards and mesh and get KYP to do the electrics and whatever else they need to get it pit ready.

Manne Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Oh, here is a photo of the freshly washed R33 4 Door, nearly ready to get some plates slapped onto her. (not embedding because the photo is huge) Theres so much bird poo burn on her, as well as weird stains that I just couldn't remove and some weird blue-tacky glue stuff that's somehow leaked onto her. My current tools were not able to remove those. Also plenty of scrapes and dings but hey.... the car was less than $3k and I'll sort those out in time. http://i.imgur.com/2L4mPAo.jpg Current plan: Mesh Grill, Remove rear Window Tint and Fit the Wheel Arch Guards. Then either drag my mate around to fix the Electrics, or if he really can't make it, drive the car to KYP, have them fix the electrics and prepare her for the pits. Take Car over Pits, Get Licensed. If the car doesn't get licensed, fix whatever they want and take it back.After that I need to save some cash, and then I move on to fixing the body and adding a few things (Reverse Camera, new Head Unit), and then we shall see about making the car perform better. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/456618-new-wasteland-wa-topic/page/115/#findComment-7723136 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manne Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 (edited) The car has a front mount intercooler, GFB bleed valve, Splitfires, Pod Filter. It's currently running the stock Turbo and BOV. It's also had the Oil Filter re-routed for easier access. Here is a photo of the engine bay, taken just before I fixed the leak: http://i.imgur.com/8AMJuJm.jpg Did I mention it was rebuilt 50,000km's ago and was resprayed candy apple red? along side all new piping (which was tig welded, but needs a polish). It's plenty fast enough for now. Truthfully, I have no idea what to do with the engine...bigger turbo? aftermarket B.O.V?, ECU + Tune?.. no idea yet. Things I definitely want: Coilovers and Sway Bars, New Breaks + Rotors, Braided Break Lines. edit: fixed some bad spelling Edited May 5, 2016 by Manne 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/456618-new-wasteland-wa-topic/page/115/#findComment-7723138 Share on other sites More sharing options...
t_revz Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Def ask before spending on engine. Trap for new players is that many advertised parts on eBay etc are crap. Not crap built but design. Standard bov is fine Many threads with newbies who bought a tone of cheap engine parts then join Sau to find out why their car comes onto boost at 6500rpm and only has 250hp, if it didn't blow up first Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/456618-new-wasteland-wa-topic/page/115/#findComment-7723141 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manne Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I'm aware of cheap ebay parts and I will not use them. I don't intend on doing anything to the engine (other than maintenance) for a few months anyway, my priorities are: get it licensed, fix up the body.

turboedsloth Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Good plan right there. 25's respond to minimal mods half the time, quality high mount/manifold/gate/exhaust/injectors/ECU. Got one down here putting out 600hp with standards internals bar head gasket and cams 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/456618-new-wasteland-wa-topic/page/115/#findComment-7723223 Share on other sites More sharing options...
