Have u guys been stopped yet by peeps asking u wtf is that vehicle and damn why did a 4 door "family" car just beat them at the lights when they drive a commodore/ford. :)

Come to think of it I have been stopped 5 times last week alone for peeps at gas stations / red lights and young guys asking to buy the car. :)

Maybe being a minority has its advantages.

Gonna go pick up my cef tonight...

Its a dark grey ceffie, stock as a rock, auto, RB20DET, with the only mod being adjustable dampning suspension.

Bought it because it was the cleanest cef on the market with reciepts and logs maintained by the owner for absolutely everything (got some for bushes he changed recently). Even comes with original Kansai factory option rims.

Was held up in customs due to paperwrk issues with DOTARS, resolved now. I do however get slung with a huge holding fee for keeping it at the port. Ah well.

The car's for my dad, but he's thinking of getting something else, so I might sell it.

Ceffo:

Im from Sydney. got news that my poo-brown interiored cefiro will be arriving soonish (hopefully next month).

But Ive got a mate thats got one too. So i think a cruise or something should definitely be organised.

BTW. His cars got a pod and passed blue slip no worries. Also passed with full roll cage + extras

Hey boys, good to see that there are a few others out there.

the run down

HKS 2510 turbo

ATS LSD

GTR front mount

7 point roll cage

bride racing seat

R32 gtst interior

exhaust 3in from turbo

bbs rims

apexi boost controller

JIC suspension

few other things

made for doooorift

Hope to see some of you on a sydney cruise

yeah they got a good power to weight ratio, better than any maxima i've ever driven.

Also the RB20DET that comes with the ceffy has lower compression, so it has a bit better grunt than an ordinary RB20DET I reckon just from driving both.

I've driven a stock as a rock R33 coupe and a stock as a rock auto A31 ceffy, and they both feel the same. Don't expect a noticable effect when boost comes on or anything, I was pleasantly surprised. The ceffy feels a lot more maneuverable than the R33 though, probably comes from the Silvia suspension setup.

i own the domain japtaxi.com and have plans to start up a website dedicated to Cefiros primarily and eventually cover other 4 door jap cars(chasers, 4 door skylines) etc.

hahaha awesome... well if u need a hand to get things up and running give us a bell.

Cefiros are about 40 or 50kg's lighter than the r32's so thats a big plus. The laurels which are also a very similar car are about 100kg heavier than the cefiro's. Im thinking about a laurel or a cefiro once i sell my rb20det onevia. I want a 4 door as i need something for taking clients round and mates.

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
