Picked up a white '97 GTS25t on Monday in Melbourne, got home and spent most of yesterday giving it a good clean (was in pretty dirty condition) needs another polish and to fix a couple of minor body blemishes.

Just sorting a few mods and will post some pics.

Only a couple of pics from tonight as the battery went flat and I'd had enough in the end... the new BMS R33 that will be used for some R&D and daily transport - for now it has bolt on FMIC kit, Apexi N1 exhaust, K&N pod, R34 GTR rims and a few other things with more under development. My wife is thinking of giving it a run at the Baskerville Hillclimb in Aug, if not her I certainly will as the RX7 is far from finished with the engine still needing to come out...

hiuhih the SX4 is getting an exhaust, the cold air intake is being made and the ecu is on order, i knw it, 3 weeks on and i already want more power.

Saw the odl girl in a sory state last night at the dealer, dam it they arn't looking after it very well.

very tidy skyline there T01

Yeah its still go a ways to go before I'm happy, but nice for sure. Although I think it would go well with the rims I'm not sure if a CF bonnet be look a bit much?

Well I don't post much on here but I thought I would cause I'm bored lol.....

Some of you may know of my Cressida . Anyhow I have been royaly stuffed around with a few parts causing me to rethink the whole project. I am now going to remove the 1jz in favour of a 2jz with a gt35r turbo - can't wait :thumbsup: . If you wanna know what business's not to deal with, shoot me a PM as there is a pretty big list of some well known companies.

In the meantime, so I can get out on the track, I have bought

r31 to piss fart around in :P Don't expect me to scando the straight though lol - Small steps baby haha

Cheers Dan.

P.S. Does anyone know how to get my user name changed to Drifterdan like it is on the other forums?

Wicked 33 Stu!

I LOVE the rims!

Jealous much? :P

Yeah it presents well hey... although its keeping me from spending on the RX7 the 33 is coping some more upgrades including Splitfires, new seats and some Nismo tidy up stuff.

I reckon 34 rims on your blue 33 would look pretty awesome.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
