I think that era of accord is the way to go.

And that one comes with sick subwoofer

That was the only thing about the ad I didn't like.. Unless it's some old nob trying to appeal to young cats, in which case I'm fine with it.
I'll refine the search down to accords and see what's around.. Current search criteria narrowed my search down to 9000 cars... There's no category to filter out ugly cars

Also, i drive passed those country mcmansions on a big empty hill and assume its always galeforce winds up there, plus heaps of noise from the freeways.

And birds, if you planned to capatalise on R33 prices once americans can import them, why spend all this money on a barrys build?

The barry build was started before GTR prices went nuts; I'd already spent the bulk of it before considerations of selling. Truth be told I'll probably swap a stockish RB26 back into the car when I do sell, and move off the dirty 30 to a drag nut for not that much less than it cost. I mean, as GTR prices go up so do their parts...the 26/30 will probably be worth more than I paid for it, if not already. About 6k has been spent thus far; long block form with sump. Not uncommon to pay upwards of 10-12k+ for one assembled by a known workshop.

Found out how to make power with the STI, seriously though I wonder what point or power level it becomes worth an engine swap, surely a 1j, 2j, rb swap would cost you shit loads. Unless you're going for 1000hp +, just build the ej

Looking for an intake for 2009 Honda Jazz. Anything from a known brand is like $400 for a bit of silicone hose, MAF holder and air filter. But space too tight to make something up yourself. Honda mods be criminally priced yo

Usual mods are exhaust / intake / dyno tune at 18 psi good for about 200kw at the wheels, no Ford barra or coyote power i know.. adding flex fuel 230kw but decent torque increase

ok so need to do a service on my ute, decided to try out sparesbox.com.au as seems much cheaper than the usual places.

for over 50$ they have free delivery up to 15Kg

to get all the fluids filters and such I want was apparently over 15 kg (mainly as 2x 5L oil bottles) so was 30$ delivery.

 

so instead did 2 orders both with 1x 5 l bottle and some other stuff, ended up with free delivery anyhow and they now have 2x delivery costs....

 

good business model

New DECA sounds great. Super excited to see what can be done with the back track.

This might kick me into gear to get pulsar out.

Lets race!

    • 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.
