Yeh as Howie said.........and then a S1 is pretty cheap these days also. Just remember when buying a car to check the service history and to get a check done on the car to make sure it's mech A1!

Yeah ruffly the price i was thinking for a dealer one for the s2.

Was going to come down to boostworks the other week and have a watch of peoples cars on the dyno, work nights though :P so never got up in time.

Was gonna get inpecta car to do a check when i find a car i like, does boostworx do that sort of stuff as well ?

Yeh you should have come down for a look, we were still there after lunch also!

You might wanna give Shaun a call about that, I'm sure he could, but he is quite busy these days and i don't know what he would charge for that sorta thing!

Boostworx do it, its ~$95 but theres usually a 2 week waiting list as hes a busy guy. I got mine checked at tillbrooks for $100 with a days notice. Wasn't the most thorough check but they did a compression test which was the main thing I wanted.

Had a look around the car yards today was interesting lol , couple of nice ones in redline and sinergy. Weird that redline seems to paint the back part and wheel arches of nearly all the cars they have there, worries me a bit :) Is this a major prob or in the end if mechs look at it and its ok, dont stress about it ?

Sinergy had a nice white s2, had a clear plastic skyline badge on the boot thought they were all ment to be colour coded on the s2's ?

i wouldnt worry about the painted wheel arches and stuff mine came like that from a dealer... also 2 secconds arround the corner from tilbrooks is a little import yard hes got a couple of nice lines go say hello to him hes a very nice chap too

    • That's it. Too rich for me. I'm out. If it does start to sell in pieces, I'll probably register an interest in the diff & axles, gearbox & tailshaft, and maybe the brakes.
    • I tried my best, well I see how it is though... It's time to be ruthless! I'll up my bid with a JVC sub and an amp to run it, 8 stainless steel drink coasters with a rubber backing, and a photo of Tom Cruise. Oh, I can increase the cash portion by 20 cents if that helps. 
    • Or if it's grey, is it watery? Does it do it after you've been for like an hour long drive it will still do it, or just near the start of the trip? As GTS said, does it seem like oil (blue), water (white/grey) or fuel (black)? Sometimes the colour can be hard to see clearly too for what it is, as GTS says, what's it smell like?
    • I wonder if part of it has to do with when you've each bought the kits. I honestly have the feeling that the silicon joiners in the 2000s were actually better quality than most of what you can find these days. Even in the same brands. Everyone racing to the cheapest price while still trying to make profit means lower quality parts. For coolant, I personally would be going with rubber, OR, converting the radiator and engine to use the huge AN fittings hose for radiators.
    • If shift solenoid A is bad, that explains limp mode --- now you're in the same position as I mentioned previously, in that the next step is to confirm loom/wiring integrity from TCU to gearbox connector with a multimeter (the TCU cannot detect a broken wire, which can happen ..ie; rodent damage, loom rubbed through)...and then finally measure resistance (at the gearbox connector) for shift solenoid A ... ...once you confirm shift solenoid A is bad (open circuit, really low or greater than 40ohm resistance), then it's a job ; you have buy a complete solenoid set, get under the car and drop transmission oil pan, and remove valvebody assembly (the solenoids sit on top), replace solenoid set, and reassemble....it's not exactly a fun task, but readily doable.
