Nice silvia.... respect 2 the 2-tone and respect 2 the brown interior .. gotta love the old school cars. The clear indicators give it a more modern look... i like :)

^^^ Thanks guys... I'm starting to feel a bit better about the purchase :D

The front AVS rims are in the mail! Picked the rear rims up for A$60 for the pair!!! :)

Car is looking good now.

It's a signal to the Yakuza... so they know who's fingers to cut of next :)

Seriously, they're temporary number plates for de-registered cars. I need them because I'm still trying to fit as many cheap Yahoo auction parts as possible... I'm doing well!

So far:

4x Yokohama AVS VS-6 wheels - 10,000 yen

2x Yokohama DNA GP tires (80% tread) - 2,000 yen

1x Silvia 'GT-R' grille - 2,000 yen

2x Tein Adj. Pillowball upper mounts - 4,000 yen

2x clear indicators - 4,000 yen

2x '92 Silvia black mirrors (as new) - 2,000 yen

1x CA18DE air flow meter - 1,000 yen

Total: 25,000 yen (A$300)

^^^ Thats with 4 WHEELS and 2 TIRES.

Needless to say I'm having a ball ;)

chances are it'll never happen as that car's doomed to go to perth :)

LOL... the olde Melbournian 'Perth piss take' on cue... try a bit harder next time hey mang? ;)

^^^ And don't say your not from Melbourne Shan, some Melbourne guys here told me about your AFL footy shorts fetish... :)

My fetishes revolve totally around NRL and union shorts thank you very much. I may live in melbourne, but my sporting tastes are very Sydney based where I grew up.

And I support the Balmain Tiger's if you must know.

I try to avoid Perth pisstakes, other than for the odd business hours, boer water and the horrid heatwaves, its actually a really nice place. What I inferred was that your car and mine will be on totally different sides of the continent.

nice S13 Rezz! looks exactly the same as my previous car, same 2 tone, same brown dash ect... mine also had cup holders above the centre console box (rare factory option?) also beeped when in reverse and at 107kph :lol: was a nice car, i sorta miss it after seeing these pics :D

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
