They will most likely fit straight in as DIN fitments are generally a universal size across most models of cars. But whether the wiring will fit straight in is another story all together. More than likely the wires will have to be spliced and fit in with the factory reading - If it supports it.

Luckily for me I'm in the Ford building so I don't have to put up with (much) all the MITA assholes. Seriously I believe the apprentices have more brains than the staff there. The only person I respect from MITA is Mr. Bishop as he is now looking after us in the Ford building and he knows an absolute shitload. Bottom line - MITA=shithole

Unfortunately being an auto, that average price is substantially lower.

Im down

Also think of the resale value of your R33 if you were to put 12k into it. Could cause you a lot of drama's and there is no way in hell you would even get close to getting that money spent back. If you want a nice turbo car. Buy an XR6 Turbo instead and kill all the skylines on the road

Well if it's a twin filament globe or a faulty connection sometimes when you turn to low beam only the park light can come on in some instances. Take the globe out and check it

Mufro where is your apprenticeship at?

Fantastic night apart from the moment when I got bogged on the hairpin at the top of the hill and when I spun out of the final corner and almost hit the wall on the opposite side. I was pretty pleased with my effort as a first timer. But the rest of the night was great. There was a lot of media there. Are we going to see pictures/video's sometime soon?

I think compression would be one of the issues with that sort of conversion. The clearance at TDC of the DE would be lower than that of a DET one but I'm not sure what sort of clearnace the RB20 head may give to add to the compression? Definately interesting conversion though. You will have to take in the pro's and con's of the DE vs DET block and whether the RB20 head is up to the task of flowing enough air. Look into it

Go to supercheap or some place similar. Buy a can of degreaser (worth next to nothing) spray tons of it all over the car where oil needs to be taken off. Then hit it with a high pressure spray from your local car lovers. Done

Sounds interesting... Will definately consider

Ah Sean... He is the new car fleet manager here is he not?

The price difference between the two I believe is too great to favour buying a NEO RB25. The fact that it is newer, yes is better. But most people are mislead by the power difference between the two. In a sense a R33 tuned via a power fc and a R34 tuned by a power fc will produce almost identical power figures.

Sean.... sean.... Was he here on work experience?

One word describes that car - SICK!! I wouldn't go down to the drags to see that thing do a pass but rather do a burnout. Hah while your at it put it in the donut pit. I'll pitch in some tyres for it :lol:

Yup NuFord is in Wangara

Haha nice another MITA apprentice. What year are you in? I'm in my second year atm going onto third year soon and work for NuFord which is about 100m from Northside Nissan. They are actually moving next door to us to join the masses of AHG delearships along Waneroo Road.

I go to MITA on thursdays. It's an unfortunate thing that the pay is so pathetic to be a mechanic. Most people don't understand how difficult it is nowadays to diagnose problems on late model cars. There is so much wiring, electronics and computers that makes life a living hell when trying to figure out what the problem really is. The thing is that pisses me off is that mechanics have built themselves a bad reputation. When a completely different problem goes wrong with the car after fixing for a seperate problem it is <b>there</b> fault because they believe the car was not fixed correctly which led to another issue which is in no way related. On the other hand if a doctor (because we all love doctors) treats you for a problem and diagnoses you incorrectly, they aren't the initial people to blame because of the reputation they have built for themselves. /Rant over Just to let you know I did high level TEE subjects at school before deciding that I wished to do mechanics instead because I prefered on the job training compared to the completely irrelavent content we learned at school. If you love cars become a mechanic, if you love money don't. Plain and simple. I'm actually working in spare parts at the moment due to a broken wrist and these guys have no qualifications yet get paid in some cases more than the majority of the mechanics.

I'm with Driver I reken that thing looks the part and it's a very impressive conversion

I can't wait for that purple sedan to get on road!

Believe me make its not easy. I'm an apprentice mechanic working at a Ford delearship up north. MITA is the only place that you can go to and they will find an apprenticeship for you, thats where I went through. Otherwise start doing some work experience where ever you can get into and start getting noticed. If you need some help send me a PM. Cheers,

Most places pump tyres up to 50 psi for dyno runs. The tyre pressure your running atm is fine. I run mine at 30psi but yours being a low profile tyre means that its not going to flex much anyway

May i ask why you were removing an air vent if it was already in good condition?

Was Kung Pow that one with the karate cow? Just went and saw one lately in the cinema's and some bits were funny but most of the jokes were plain unfunny

Damn I never knew the dockers traded there #1 pick for Trent Croad. When they could have had Luke Ball, Brad Hodge or Chris Judd. Hahaha.. I'm sorry Dockers Fans but that is a pathetic effort and terrible mistake. Also watched the eagles one as well. Ah well there a couple of drug dealing hippies but they never said anything bad about there football.
