When i was reading how to instal FAST, there was a post from you back in 04 asking them to check if your 260rs which was coming was authentic, so you posted your VIN

Body part meaning? Couldnt FAST be in ENGLISH! argh :D

certainly had my vin pretty handy for a post that was 15 months old ...and i`m pretty sure why .....

BTW, NRGIZD, if you want a wing THAT bad, you can always get a standard wing, i can get you the part code

Yeah l thought of doing that, til friend who imports parts found me a couple to choose from, plus a few other nice little customs things that should hopefully be paid for within the next couple of weeks and shipped over soon!! :);)

Jake, na mate, i dont need/use your VIN for parts i just only installed FAST the other day, so i read the thread and remembered it was there :)

I now know my VIN off by heart

StageZilla - Not as easy to ask "what options?". I just look through all the parts and if i find something that was an option, i note it. I dont think there is a "options" section

[ STAGEN ] - Mate, wanna hook me up with a rear wing as well? Id love to get one, pref in white ;) But i would rather the std swept back style wing over a 260rs one (suits a std kitted car better i beleive)

There's an accessories section under the general index menu. After you type in your VIN, click on the 6th button from left at the top, then select the accessories option at the bottom of the menu that appears. This will bring up all the accessories available for your vehicle (or what was available at the time, anyway). You can also see the entire range of accessories available for a model series by simply typing in the model series number (eg WGNC34) but without entering the serial number of a/the car, and then proceed as described previously.

Full part numbers are also available in FAST.....I think I described how to get them in the FAST thread.

Two part numbers for the above visor should be

G3810-0V500

G3811-0V500

Using the guide that SteveL wrote..

"Anyway using the timing belt example (below), go to the initial FAST window and make sure the model series at least or VIN are entered. In this case use R32 or (as I did) your VIN. Now go to the 'Part Code....Qty....Part No' Line and click on 'New', then go to the 'Part No' field and enter the first 5 digits of the PN (ie 13028). The system should automatically enter a dash after the 8.

Now click on 'New' again and a window should pop up with some info about the part (but not the PN....yet). Click once in the blank 'Ord.Qty' box to 'order' one belt (or click as many times as you want for the number of belts you need) - that number should appear in the box. Highlight and backspace to delete quantity. Either hit F5 or go to the 'Tool' menu and select 'P/No Search'.......voila, the PN appears along with a bunch of other stuff in the original 'FAST' window. There's also 2 new buttons in that info list - one gives basic model info, the other gives superceded parts info, if applicable.

"

Hmmm damnit I noticed that my DS is cracked, looks like someone has tried to remove it at some stage from the middle, looks like I'll have to try the good old super glue before getting a new one :D

on that issue, i gotta say i reckon they should be abit stronger as when i enter and exit the vehicle my first instinct is to grab to top of the roof sill edge and ive bent mine abit but not cracked em, as they have been cracked since i bought it :P

anyone have this problem? (i am used to driving a commodore though :D )

I dont grab the top thing, but i find that when others close my doors most people push the door shut pushing on the glass!!

i push on the metal part of the door below the window, but argh, i dont want to snap a window!

Yeah, I've gotta break that habit too - so used to owning cars with window surrounds, and using that to close the door.

I don't think the window will "snap," unless you give it a real push and aren't using any mercy to close the door.

Well, I hope it won't break... ;)

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day  
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
    • Are you 100% sure this isn't tune related?
    • 140-150 across the board. At this point hoping the grounding harness fixes it. My grounds are all tied to the chassis and none to the battery. For SR and KA that’s never been a problem for me but had a few other guys here and Reddit who told me RB really like a very solid ground setup tied to the battery so going to try that next, I’m stumped if that doesn’t do it. Never had a car have spark and fuel and not fire off before. Only thing I can think is the spark is intermittent/weak because of grounds nothing else really makes sense at this point 
    • I am having close to the same issue. Can you help me with what wire you grounded to get your pump to trigger?
