Ken, I've seen the 33 ones and thought they looked pretty good. they sit in the middle angles towards the driver. where do the R32 ones sit?

The R32 ones sit on top of the instrument bezel and curves over the lh side next to the wiper switch.

Our Targa Prepped R32GTR has one on but it's in Tassy atm so no pics sorry.

These ones are made from injection moulded plastic with a stippled finish on them and all that is required is 2 or 4 small screw holes in the dash. As the R33 ones sit below the w/screen line, they cant get defected for vision impairment.

They even come with some double sided tape but don't know how strong that would be.

cheers

We have one here for an R33 GTS-T and they sit on the middle of the dash.

$200 and it's brand new.

BTW, they do them for A31's as well.

Cheers

Ken

I'd love that.

Dono if it's worth $200 for it though, why is car stuff so ridiculously expensive? I might have to get contacts in japan to source it myself and see how much it costs.

all about the same price, $200 which isn't bad considering it holds 3x 60mm gauges and most pillar pods hold 2 and are around $150-$180 for good ones.

Cheers

Ken

can you get some that hold x2 or can one be cut / removed ?

On an R33 since you wont be cutting holes, You would have to route the cables along the base of the windscreen somehow with some black conduit or something.

Would love to see one fitted, I'll be happy to get rid of my pillar guage. (single 60mm pod, $60 from Rocket Industries)

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.

      Blue slip

      By Stringycheese · Posted

      Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?

      Should have asked what is the car?

      I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Hey guys,  Way back when (about 15yrs plus), I picked up a beautiful set of Tein 'Super Racing Spec Circuit Master RE' coilovers from Russman. I have legit never fitted them to my car, as it was garaged indefinitely while i bought a house Yada Yada. They look brand new! Anyway its time to pick up where I left off, and have started doing some khanacross and am booked in for a hill climb next month. The car has some hard af Nismo shocks in ATM, which has me wanting to upgrade again, and now I am left wondering if it's worth having these teins rebuilt? I think they where an ok shock back then, but how do they compare to what's on the market now?  Shockworks/mca are 2800+, and I am sure they are great. But if I can have these rebuilt and be better than, say, a set of bc's for around the cost of bc's, I would be happy with the performance v cost trade off.  If they are considered outdated and rubbish these days, so be it, I'll put them on the shelf and be happy to look at the pretty green colour while I save for the SW/MCA option. Grateful for your thoughts on the matter, and suggestions on who could do the rebuild if it's a worthwhile pursuit.  cheers, Rowdy.
