Few snaps Ive taken whilst I attempt to take apart most of the car myself in preparation for paint n panel. The A31 panels are much easier to install & remove than my old S13, having less bolt and the bolts are in a much easier position to get to. The rear end is quite easy to take apart aswell... the only bugger I had was getting the tail lights out because they had a shtload of silastic on them!

Although I brought my car as an absolute shitter with alot of panel damage I was happy to see that there hasnt been a front or rear end hit before.

I will continue to update pics as I go along!

I bet you dont hate how much bog ive had to use :blink:

Here is a pic of the car when I brought it "online" - http://www.innaloo.net/~jai/cefiro/cefiro01.jpg

And in freaky negative effect! - http://www.innaloo.net/~jai/cefiro/cefiro01_damage.gif - mmm look at those yummy flat panels!

Everyone would say "stear clear of that one" - Never I said... NEVERRRRRRRRR!!!

haha it looks like the titanic when i hit an iceberg :cheers:

and yeh i was thinking that there was a lot of bog on there. How much you paying for the full job.

My car is COVERED in scratches and I am debating whether to respray in the same color (cheap).

Seriously, that car will so good !

I dunno what its costing yet... will let u know when its done!

Kit was $2.2k... and im respraying in the factory diamond black. Was going to go the same colour as Huddy but it was going to cost me another 2k.

Yeh but the 2k price tag is so worth it for not having the hassle of shit fitment!

My kit was 1k and sticks out to the sides, needed heaps sanded off the sides and doesnt have pre drilled holes.

I would def go for a genuine kit next time just so I dont have the hassle :P

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
