$550!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! damn thats insane you might aswell pay your excess at that price tis straight bullshit there.

Yeah rome through the for sale and wanted sections, i was lucky there was like 3 guys wrecking R33 seriesII. Series 1 and II are the same glass fitting they just have different tint colours like mine was a light grey which i was lucky i got but some have a shade of blue in them but if they are going to get tinted don't worry.

Alot of the guys selling on there, willing to take any reasonable offer so $100 - $150 is ok.

Australian Air Express www.aae.com.au to ship overnight. cost $45 from Brisbane to Perth but they won't insure glass so you got to take you chances but mine came through.

Hey Nizmo

I recently changed my drivers window as it had severe scratching to it. I picked up a 2nd hand window via posting on the forums. I payed $100 for the window, in great condition. Swapping the window is very simple, and it's not worth you paying someone to do it. I recommend you do it yourself or im sure there wouldn't be any problems for some of the SAU lads to come out and help a friendly SAU chicky? OF COURSE NOT!! :)

As for tint, i recommend Trent from TKO Tinting, he came and tinted my entire car recently and did a great job for a great price. Give him a call on 0410-585-045.

All in all, im sorry to hear about your bad luck. I had my car keyed recently (with a brand new BLACK paint job) and i hope that whoever did it, suffers from a tragic event in the nether region of their pants involving a whipper snipper.

Best of luck.

yup window now back in .... hopefully the little A-holes will leave my car alone for a while now. Was a bit of a prick to fit tho! :crazy:

Yeah i know, took me about 2 hrs to do, getting it to line up properly is a prick so it closes flush. Also got cuts from little shards being stuck in that plastic film.

Like to go thief bashing sometime. My friends SS commodore got the inside stripped like 1 week after mine was broken into.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
