Just putting my feeler's out lol

I have an R33 GTS-T that I purchased early this year but am still on my P's :D :D

I'm from Kiama and unfortunately Jamberoo is as far as i get to early on a saturday morning to charge the battery.

So until then i'm seen in a little shiny lancer buzz box haha

look forward to a cruise in october... :P

I also from the gong, but I drive a holden torana with a RB25DET in it. I'd love to catch up with fellow members and talk cars. I've sent you a pm.

Hey that was my silver s2 in WAS.

WHI-51L i saw you driving today driving past lights, you were on your way to drive down crown st.

Looked nice and clean Luke, how'd you find dealing with Kon?

I see your car got in after mine and beat me out... :D Bastardo! :D LOL Least yours doesn't crop up a billion issues... :( (My car has done it for 18months... LOL)

Yer dealing with Kon was great, hes a good guy.

haha. what you got done to yours? what problems are you having with it?

Had been doing an RB2530 backyard conversion on it... From 18 months ago now...

The motor has had considerable problems, and just me being slow working on it etc, and getting piping all done.

But got it all running, and late last year blew the head gasket apart. Guy I'd bought the motor from used an RB20 head instead of the RB25... So had to buy all new head and what not...

Got all that on and sorted, car decided to catch fire (Hood lining dropped onto the turbo)

Then I just got the shits with it, took it to Kon, got him to do a heap of flushing of fluids, major tune (Tune was going from a scaled tune from a 25DET with stock turbo to a 30DET with huge turbo and 850cc injectors)

Also getting things like my power steering leak fixed up, all brakes bled in preparation for the track day on Friday, but last Friday the car decided to melt a coil pack.

That's one of many things in a long list of very small setbacks for the last 18 months... LOL

    • Yep it's an r34. Usually people remove struts without removing the front upper control arm (fuca is what i assume this is?) So not sure why mine wouldn't fit. I know on my other car I did a similar job and it wouldn't fit until I removes the ball joint nut even though I didn't remove it prior.   The upper arm doesn't seem to be in the way (the part that's bolted to the chassis. The part that's bolted onto the j arm I'll check that out though.   I was going to compress the spring and put it in with the compressor attached but not sure if it will work  Haven't seen anyone do it.
    • I have a small lip on the boot of the E90 and I've been toying with the idea of trying to mould it in to the boot to remove the gaps. I guess shaving the seams? No idea what the terminology is here.  What I'm wondering is, if it's current double sided taped down, what would I do to more permanently attach it so it makes a good base for the filler? It only has edges so no way to bolt it down unless I add some braces. I've done a lot of fibre glassing in my time so that's nice and easy but I'm not sure what my options are here.  Sorry, this is the best pic I have and I'm 4 million ks from home ATM.  
    • Based on this comment I went googling. A052's in the sizes I want are certainly not cheap, but I couldn't find anything in the V70A anywhere. How much do they run/where do they get sourced from? From what I know (nothing but internet searches and reviews etc) the R888 has pretty much fallen off from anyone's actual use, and the AO52 is the king of "road legal" rubber. Nobody is driving around on their daily for Z221, AO050, DZ03G. At that point, for purely track only tyres - Why not buy actual slicks? Why does nobody actually do that anyway?
    • This an R34? It shouldn't matter though - it should be the same as on any of the others, and by "any of the others" I mean R32, because that is the car that I have had the front end apart on about 50 times this year. Sometimes, it is much easier to get the lower shock eye onto that pin when: a) you have the upper shock nuts backed off a few turns so you can wiggle it a bit more freely. When they are tight the bottom of the strut is much harder to move that _leeeetle_ bit you might need it to to win the fight. b) you have the outer bolt(s) from the FUCA out and so you can move the lower pin around freely too. Then, all you have to do is put the upper arm back on when you've got the rest back together, and this is where jacking under the balljoint can help.
    • One question before I make a bigger mess potentially, do I need to undo the nut on the outer ball joint?
