De-locking is quite a common mod on cars in Britain - it removes a degree of temptation from dumb kids with screwdrivers and so on. My drivers door handle has a nick in it where someone obviously had a quick go at it (before I owned it) so I was considering replacing it as part of the exterior tidy-up job. They guy I was discussing it with suggested getting rears for the front as an easy way of de-locking at the same time. Sad that you have to think about these things but that's the way things are unfortunately. I am currently selling my old car - a 1995 Jeep Cherokee Ltd SE - just got it ready to sell, spotless, serviced etc - woke up to find some w***** had broke in and pinched the stereo - taking half the bloody dash with it! I would rather they had come to the door and asked for the stereo - it would have been less painfull to just hand the thing over! (Then I would have chased him in the jeep and run him over :( ) Anyway that's why I asked the question - so do we think they will fit and blank off the locks?

cheers

Yeah ive seen a cefiro like that, looked odd. i think a stagea would look like a sedan delivery, seen it done with an EH. Panelvan with low roof and windows.

now if you used r33 2door doors and did some crazy fabrication work... would look better than the small stag doors.

btw i think it would be a neat idea deleting the locks - til your remote lock battery fails...

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Thats the current state of the reo. Bit ew, but GTR Reo and supporting bars are $2000, and 2nd hand GTT ones are $1000... More engine disassembly. The good news is   Various LS weird sounds are apparently normal Everything coming out is in perfect condition The bad news is: Everything coming out is in perfect condition It looks like whoever assembled this engine ~25,000km ago was telling the truth with what's in it and how they did it. Even things I was unsure of like the timing chain - But it's a brand new double row timing chain, spaced perfectly. They even cut up the stock windage tray to keep it instead of being lazy and to work with the baffle. Cam, Heads, springs, LS7 lifters, Pushrods - All look new and have obviously been working perfectly. In other news, we removed the pineapples that were loaded below the superpro subframe bushes. They look a fair bit munted and have deformed the poly bushes that are 'above' them. I'm telling myself that now that there's space 'under' the bush between the little cup that bolts in... that having a pineapple wedged there was bad and basically made the rear end solid. The pineapple and the superpro bush are ... equally deformed (i.e they have deformed one another from being smashed together). We'll see how it goes with bushes only. I am sure this cope will fail and the answer will be to drop the subframe and put nismo rubber bushes in there instead. $400 worth of gaskets and ARP head bolts to replace perfectly new looking gaskets that absolutely weren't leaking  and were installed perfectly with great care - because god damnit.

      Why bother? Keep them under 1bar and be happy, I had it for 10 years and never had an issue. once you go beyond that the budget blows out fast and then keeps on blowing out

      I'd still recommend rebuilding the turbos too. That will eat up a lot of the budget especially if you aren't willing to put in the labor to R&R the turbos yourself but it's a huge risk to ignore it at this point.

      Yep, agree with all of the above added on too. I just love the age old "what boost were you running?" Question without getting any other surrounding data. IE, may have ran 20psi, and lived for 12 years, but it was an 80 year old granma driving it to Bingo once a week and never took it over 2500rpm.
