Sim Lim Sq doesn't sell Car stuff!! :) Only electronics like Digicams, Computer parts, PDAs, laptops etc. Pardon my vagueness in my earlier post.

Other place to check out is also Garage R. They're somewhere in the Northern areas of Singapore - Upper Thompson Road area. I've been there a few times to look see. I've seen EVOs and a few R34 GTRs (there was an N1 spec there!). So it's another place. Not sure about how competitive the prices are. But remember exchange rate differences..AUD will win. And don't let them talk shit to you cos you're a westerner! As long as you know your technical knowledge about brands and cars.

Be careful when buying electronic goods (eg. camera etc). There have been cases of dishonest shop keepers. Just look around before commiting a buy.

Interested in car parts, check out this forum... it is however more catered for the S15 market though.

Hope it helps.

Happy Motoring :headspin:

      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

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      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.
