try this guy,

jeff, nis-power on 5559-2222, he's in carrara just off the high way.

i know he might have most of what you need,

the rear calipars are the same as the MR30 aus version, he'll have second hand brake cables, if you want new ones i know a place just across from harbour town that will make them for $55 each.

I have an MR30 Hatch just about to go to the TIP and it has a complete stock HR30 rear end if your interested.

Don't know Adam, but RSX84 suggests Pioneer Coaches might be pretty cheap if your interested.

I just listed the complete body as the body/engine number holds an engineers report for a/mkt turbo application.

PM me if your interested in this or me acquiring lower control arms hear as any hatch is identical to yours.

Cheers,

Hey Ghostrider,

What diff do you have there and how much do you want for it?

It's only an R180 Open Diff 3.9:1, I kept the 3.9:1 LSD for a spare, but it may go up for grabs a bit later, but you would need to get in line for any R200 LSD on this forum. They can't be bought for less than a grand these days as they are getting very rare. The R180 if you want it has only done 60k so keep me informed.

The decision to scrap it will be made this weekend, so the rear calipers & handbrake cables etc will be available, if you don't get new ones in the mean time.

Cheers,

Dennis

RSX84,

Whats the name of the place near Harbour Town for the hand brake cables?

Cheers

Michael  :O

Adam,

I'm not leaving this body sit here forever, if no one takes up the offer by Saturday it's going.

If you want the rear arms let me know and you can have 'em.

Cheers,

Dennis

any idea on what freight to Adelaide would be on the rear arms to Adelaide?  I've bent something, possibly the rhs rear arm

Yeah that would be great, I was just going to keep quiet about it as I'd rather see someone take the entire car off your hands and rebuild it than take a few bits off it and scrap it, but if no-one buys it the arms, particularly the rhs would be useful to me.

Is the bit that bolts the diff onto the shell the same on a wagon as my coupe? I may have bent that, I pushed the car backwards out the shed and while that exaservated the toe out on the right rear (its jacked the car up on that side pretty much) the left rear wheel has pushed out at the back a bit, so either I was running toe in on the back before I smacked the right side, and its that toe in which is making the left wheel pop out a bit when I pushed it backwards, OR I've knocked the diff across... I didnt think that was possible, especially given that it wasnt an overly hard 'crash' (hairpin on a dirt/gravel road, swung out slightly too far and put the right rear into the dirt embankment on the side of the road) but atm it looks like the left wheel is sitting out, right wheel is sitting in, though it could just be the result of the current alignment and me pushing it backwards

Dennis,

I dont mind that its an open wheeler. Im realy just chasing one incase mine goes BANG. I found the rear calipers but I might still need those handbrake cables. Just name the price as I have to get my car back on the road, I'm having major withdrawls from not driving it.

Thanks again

The R30 Van/Wagon has a different rear end set up entirely to our coupes, it has a live rear axle as well.

The bit your talking about??? is it the diff support, looks a bit like a spring or the cross member the trailing arms mount to???

Maybe you have bent the 2 posts the rear support slides on to or sheered some bolts off, as thats the only way I could see the diff moving.

But I shipped a complete rear end assembly for about $70 along with a couple of gearboxes etc to Adelaide a couple of years back and freight rates are only about $50/tonne. The rear end would be cubic, but still I can't see it costing that much.

Are bits that hard to get over there in SA.

Cheers,

Dennis

Just want to know if they have rear arms and the bit the arms bolt on to... may have bent an arm, may have bent the brackets

The bit the arms bolt on to is the rear cross member. The pivot points are welded to the cross member.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
