as for pics, the closest thing right now is in the car chase thread. Looks rather similar to that, cept more concentrated on the LHF side, and more crumpled. Also managed to push the bonnet down a bit so it looks like that :)

withdrawals are shocking to cope with. Tried calling you to ask if you could come pick up the shit that was in my boot, but, it's in a holding yard already :(

You know the corner out the front of the pub next to sutho station on east parade? on the bus stop side of sutho station

Aw well, $2100 excess to pay, IF the claim gets accepted. Im spewin, $2100 better spent on a turbo kit, or pistons, or what ever

I can relate dude, I took out the front of my '97 ser II a month ago and the withdrawals are so f&*kin bad it's not funny anymore, I have to see it everyday and not being able to drive it. Look on the bright side and stop whinging like a girl....at least you were insured ! I was on the back of a 3 car pile-up and I wasnt insured (Im 31 and just cars tried to get $5700 out of me for it) so my R33 is going to be the last car repaired after the other two. I'm up for at least $20 big ones so yeah, stop crying like a f*&kin girl and accept the fact that there are people worse off than you out there ! The only light shining at the end of my tunnel is that I still have my boosted VL Calais to get to work in.

    • We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.
    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
