  1. Would the Greddy E-Manage work? I know they work with auto R33's, might be an option?
  2. Here they are, I needed them but this thread doesnt actually have them in it anymore, thanks Tangles:

    Gladstone, Qld

    If you want someone to say hellu in rocky, let me know
  4. Whats wrong with those before graphs?
  5. When you say "left" do you mean drivers or passengers side? Because on the passengers side, in the boot compartment, well hidden under a butt load of stuff is the ATESSA Controller ECU, which controls the AWD..... might be a switch to put into RWD? Which is not recommended either. Do a search to find out why

    Fuel Pumps

    Well the car will hopefully be looked at today. Noise is not a problem, the Nismo one was REALLY loud, buzzzzzzzzz as soon as I turned the ignition on, so used to it. That is how I am 95% sure it's dead, turn the ignition and total silence...... The stock cradle would be already modified to suit the Nismo pump, and dont know how much the cradle would have to be modified to suit any new pump to be installed, but that isnt really my problem. Price isnt reall an issue either, as the warranty covers up to $1,000 for replacement of the pump itself. Which is why I would prefer to replace with the Nismo, but cant find anyone in AU who can sell me one and send overnight via courier to rural QLD. The major problem I have is that I have a wife and 2 young children walking to school in the pouring rain, yes they have unbrella's and raincoats, but eventually they will get colds and pass it onto me and then everyone will be sick and cranky. Oh that and I have to ride to work in the rain, but meh I just take stupidly long hot showers when I get here So really I need the car back ASAP. I have advised the workshop to try to source the SARD as a replacement, mainly because Dan, (3lit3 32), said so, he is the man and trust him explicitly. That and the SARD can be sourced by the workshop overnight. So once the report and quote is done for the warranty, I'll be waiting for them to approve and then it'll take at least 2 days more to get back on the road. I really appreciate everyones suggestions and help!
  7. Nott installed yet, but soon, yes brand new SARD Fuel pump
  8. ~$5k more and you could have a manual which is already in the country hint hint!

  10. OK So my fuel pump died yesterday, and it is covered under the warranty. Now atm it has a Nismo High Capacity R33 GTR in it, flows at 276L/hour So because it is the only car my family has we need it back on the road asap. I would prefer it be replaced with a Nismo, but yet cant find anyone in Australia who has stock that they can courier overnight. So I am considering the following, which all are available via overnight courier: SARD High Capacity Fuel Pump 280L/Hour Bosch 040 235L/Hour Bosch 044 330L/Hour So can anyone point me in the direction of anyone in AU that might have the Nismo? If not then which out of the SARD or the 2 bosches should I buy? Points to consider: 1. This will be fitted by Rockhampton local mech, who has probably never done this before. 2. It'll need to be intank 3. I need the car back on the road ASAP, riding to work in the rain is not fun I was going to go 040, but after reading a lot of threads about the 040 I am leaning towards the 044, which can be mounted in the tank, am I right? Thanks for your advice. If you are going to post up that I should not use any of the pumps suggested, please backup with facts and evedence, dont just post up stuff like, "Dont use the 040, they blow up!"
  11. Geeze man is that pitcure BIG enough?
  12. Just went back with a mate, most probably dead fuel pump, which funnily enough IS COVERED under the warranty I still have But its a show holiday tomorrow here in rocky, so nobody will even look at it until Thursday, and then god only knows how long till it is fixed, which means I ride to work in the rain and the wife and kids walk to school in the rain. Could be worse though, it could've been smashed.
  13. Spotted, my Stagea on the back of a tilt tray being unloaded at the local workshop..................................
  14. OMG Black is soooo hot!!!!! Nice work getting the surfer too!!
  15. Tell her to pay for it then? Cmon, cant she hear the incesant beeping you should have when you remove the key without turning the lights off?
  16. 2005 maclaren f1? Damn you got diddled, dotars only lets raws comply the f1 up until 2004, sucks to be you noob!
  17. I guess it all depends on how they were used? I mean if they were driven on bumpy, uneven roads for years, or some idiot thought it would be fun to go over speed bumps at a million miles an hour for years.......?
  18. With 205's + wet road = 4wd spin from a standing start, with the 50/50 button pressed or not. It's really weird when the car does not move forward, rather lurches suddenly sideways, following the lean of the road.
  19. I dont have any switches for the seat heaters, probably because my console has been changed to the 260RS............. But as to the switches for the seats. Well the drivers side has the following adjustments: 1. Bottom part Front, up & down. 2. Bottom part Rear, up & down. 3. Bottom part all, up & down. 4. Top part, tilt forward & tilt back. 5. Whole seat, forward & back. But the passengers seat only has 4 & 5.
  20. Yeah I have the same issue in the local supermarket carpark, it is underground, but have open places where the sun shines through, lights go on and off as I pass through them, meh it's not as if i am flashing my highbeams, it's just the low beams. Still I cant count the number of times I flattened my battery in my old R33 by leaving the lights on, but never left them on in the stagea
  21. 30kw and extra fuel economy goes out the window when you start modding.
  22. OK I can categorically tell you this as a fact. I had 18" 235's on and went back to the stocker 15" with 205's The amount of grip I lost was phenominal! And not just in one place, lost in acceleration, braking, cornering. The 235's I had on had SOOO much more grip! And dont even start with me and how the 205's performed in the wet................ Only thing keeping them on is that I have not yet worn through them, which is surprising, going to a skidpan in July but.............
  23. Yeap, just another crappy thing about using a turbo timer. I have not once left my lights on, it's great!!! Robs (quikstagea) old S1 did have it but.
  24. Yeah do a search, Ian sused out a great one aaages ago, I started a thread on this very subject and it has heaps of info in it.
