ok for a start... its for a mates car.... RB25??? pft... if it were me id be goin RB26!

yea... so anyways... i aint spending the money Andy, its a mates car.. he is spending the money.. not me! so ner!

Ill give trojan a call, but is there anywhere else to compare prices and all???

Thanx guys.

But on the other topic... Ill buy your car Richard... or trade.. and you can match it with a bit extra cash... :wassup: :):D:D:D

Congratulations Leigh, You made the top of my list.

All the others have been previously removed.

 

I will deliver your prize.

:kewl:

(personally!)

 

Mwahahahaha!

lol sinista come on tridentt still has to be on top :) one comment from me and i make the top oh well i am feeling the love at least :) haha

All I can say is, Ed quoted me on a few things like swapping turbos etc.. and I was taken back.. so much so that I decided to do it my slef.... Man... I know hwy it cost's a bit, changing the turbos on a GTR is one ****ing anoying job, and not one I'll rush into doing again. And yeah I belive he is fairly priced, but you are paying for experiance and the ability to drive in... drive out.. dont even have to clean your hands, thats a pretty big deal.

If you have the means to do it your self (and the time) I say go for it, it definatly saves money, but be prepared to be with out a car for a few months and have lots of band aids available, be prepared for pain and frustration.... taking an engine out is no easy feat, the concept is simple, unbolt pull out, put in, bolt up, but there is alot more to the application..

If you have the means to pay some one to the the job in several days, Pay it!

Ed's work is top notch! and he is a top, bloke, you get what you pay for!

Trojan are also a good work shop and reasonable priced, I dont know the guys there, but I do know Ed very well. Have known him for 4-5 years, out side of the whole car scene, He will give you no end of help!

Good luck with you decision.!

Cheers

Stirlo!

Still doesn't answer the question.... what's the conversion?

well depends on how much your mate is wanting to spend... if he has an endless budget then tell him Signal Auto in japan do a great job, lol. i dont know many places in canberra i thought only ed but maybe try looking for places in syd? and yes knowing what conversion he is going for would sure help....

thanx all...

if it was the RB to an RB in my car id would be doin it...

BUt its a mates lancer... i dont relly want to say much more about it, as i dont really have his permission, and i dont think he wants it let out... if you know what i mean..

Ed was ment to to the conversion within the last week or so, but has now decided it cant be done for another 2 months... thats y were just after another place to go.

Trojan just finished a heap of conversions and they all looked very neat and tidy to me. You havent even told us what the conversion is and to what etc... But yeah i'd see trojan.

They were cai18 to rb20 and an rb25 in 180's

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
