a $30 filter could cause over $2000 of damage. it happened to macka 6 months ago

Don't know what it is with you guys and pods.

Have had 2 xR's with em on , took em off , put std box back in with K+N .

NO difference at all, well none you would notice on the road.

Cheers

Keep Macka away from the car, he's nothing but bad news:p

Ken,

True, but I can shear off a sump plug:p

See'ya:burnout:

Sad part was , it wasn't the sump plug , just the aftermarket insert.

* hmmm , can't even recognise a sump plug *:P

Cheers

Adam,

Your still getting a workshop to replace the valve right?

See'ya:burnout:

Hope it is the valve and not just a lump of carbon stuck under the seat.

Adam will be pissed off .

Cheers

i got a headshop lined up for next week

unless its something rediculously simple like a bolt stuck in there in which case tristan should know what hes doing. well have to wait and see, should be a bit of a learning experience nontheless

If it's a bolt stuck in there , you are gonna NEED a headshop cos the valve will be bent , seat scored and hope it hasn't peppered the piston.

Cheers

Ken

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
