yeah Roo that why you dont show up to the auction at all send your man in your place and have a phone link with him muhahahaha

thats actually very good advice. Make sure you also tell the agent that if the vendors insist with the auction going ahead that your offer may not be there at the end if it gets passed thru for less.

[Damo_R34]

lol craig. might still go with the new rays colour "luminous yellow"

[heslo]

Cheers Pete, let me know the final cost and when you want the bickies

[Luke_ENR34]

i might be interested in the n1 pump to Pete, Im just waiting to hear back from my jap mate for the final price for that one.

I'll let you know. cheers

[SLED]

no worries guys....let me know soon as you can Luke (ENR34)

[Min_R32]

SO...

Good news- Passed regency! (Thanks to Rad33, Lukeenr34)

Bad news- Dude at regency said my car is missing a turbo solenoid <--- =/ didnt know 32's had a turbo solenoid.

[Damo_R34]

does he mean boost solenoid? have you had an ebc before min?

[heslo]

Congrats Min! Hopefully get mine passed next week so I can get back to driving it again!

[Madaz]

yeah i find that funny he says its missing a turbo solenoid possibly means boost solenoid... um doesn't he know what they do

[Min_R32]

Nah this is what he meant. Theres the hose which goes from the turbo to the actuator. He said that apparently this was not meant to be, but there was

meant to be a solenoid that went in between it from Nissan factory. At this stage he had already passed me so i wasnt going to argue much, but i mentioned

that i thought they only came out on later models like 33,34. Bleh i dunno lol >.>

[Min_R32]

Congrats Min! Hopefully get mine passed next week so I can get back to driving it again!

Thanks Luke, just pray you dont get one of the younger looking guys. They looked fairly tough. (As in following the book down to the line@!) I got a middle aged

bloke who happened to be in a happy mood. I guess i got lucky!

[Luke_ENR34]

good to hear my baffle plate worked

[Min_R32]

Yeah i was getting pretty nervous when the inspector starting looking close to my cat!

[Ryanrb25]

My new tie rod ends has arrived awesome anyone fitted these before? Should I fit them myself I'm not sure because getting the adjustment exactly dead-on on both side looks to be a pain or should I have some suspension place do it so they adjust it and get an alignment done aswell?

If you need a hand mate, ill help ya out!

and MIN, yea Boost solinoid was a two stage bleeder which switched from 5psi to 7psi at 4000rpm on RB25DET!!! The Guy is obviously confused..One of robert's 33's didn't pass tier 3 because of this exact reason. The hose from the compressor housing to the actuator is stock so no stress mate.

[rad100]

well done mate!! ps anyone got stock 32 reo bar?? min said my gtr bar fitted well on his reo heheh
