after many... MANY months... its finally here and in my driveway and OH BOY is it fun

this thing is a sideways animal... it has a mental LSD setup and even doing 15kmh around a corner u can hear the LSD rotating both wheels skidding around the corner.

The engine is painted in a glitter paint which looks pretty cool... the engines been pretty well maintained and all the mechanics are pretty good. It has a pretty bloody big oil cooler on it... could almost use it as a FMIC on a small turbo car

the twin plate clutch is pretty noisey but reasonably easy to use... the noise it makes when it hits boost is scarey

very easy to control sideways thanks to the suspension setup but the front tyres rub pretty bad on the guards... im going to have to get them rolled out even more.

i have a vid of it revving to about 4000rpm but its pretty poor quality thanks to it being from a digital still camera with mono sound... cant upload it tho i dont have any webspace.

body is a little rough, no major problems but the front bar will have to be repaired as its pretty rooted... genuine monkey magic URAS kit.

cant wait to get it on the track.

was a nice drive home from glen waverly to bentleigh east... stalled about 3 times but luckily while i was moving so i could just jump it by dropping the clutch.

thanks guys...

yeah i will get the engine and everything checked out before i go doing any dyno runs... i dont like dynos... i reckon it puts a lot of strain on the engine... but i will definately post it up when i do.

Drifing aint much better! :) It will be certainly hard to resist until it is all checked.

Good to see it arrived in one piece... I am ultra ultra paranoid about mine at he moment. Will be getting it in the next couple of weeks.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • 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.
