Off topic, but +1 to Service SA messing people around. I got told a few weeks back on the phone from them "Yep, you can get your full license. Just come in and get it". So I went down there and the girl behind the counter said "Nope, you can't get it for another 4 weeks. The person on the phone was wrong".

Stupid! 0 customer service skills.

Yep, service SA suck! Was supposed to get my P's back about a month ago, now it'll be another 5 weeks or so.. BULLS**T!!! Had one lesson on my L's the other day (as you have to these days) and the dude said i need to have a few more lessons to 'break some habbits' i have, these habbits are the ones i learnt from the first driver i had before i got my P's 2 years ago.... Its alittle hard to break them seeing i've been doing it for 2 years.. Also why the hell do they need me to do the VORT test? I've had my p's, there for i know how to park, do u-turns and all that shite, so whats the point????? It pissed me off so much when the dude told me that, swear i was gunna hit him at one point, not his fault tho, just doing his job! But seriously why do i havta do all that stuff again, i was caught speeding thru a few red light spped cameras (within 20k's) and this is what i get for it, 8 months (or more if i done pass the VORT) with no licence = bullshit! Stupid system!!!! But yeah i guess... its my own fault... :laugh: dont lose ya licence when your on your P ones.. it sucks what ya havta go thru to get them back!

My rant lol

GTR Pump will fit BUT for the cost of an old S/H pump why not buy a new 040 or 044 and fit that intank.

I fitted my 044 intank, cost $20 for the lower machined nipple a hose clamp, some suitable rubber and a little efi hose.

new pump 040 is like $220 -,-"

ebay my friend. :laugh:

some jecs pump - http://cgi.ebay.com.au/JECS-BOSCH-FUEL-PUM...1QQcmdZViewItem

and then a heap of 044's for around $200 delivered.

Theres also the Walbro which is a damn good pump for up to ~250-260rwkw.

^^ yup, had walbro in my 33, 230 odd rwkw comfortably, stock injectors where @ 100% at times

    • Unfortunately haven’t taken pics yet after it was finished. All the edges are hemmed nicely, just had to cut holes for the gear shifter and seat bolts and seat belt bolts in the rear. The molds seem like they’re done with steam and a layer of glue on the underside to hold a bit of shape but still soft enough that it’s a good fit when it’s all pressed down.
    • When's the rear mounted turbo kit coming? Needs dose and V8 chop idle lol.
    • I was very unimpressed with how the car came up from the A pillar forward, before I hit things (twice). It all has to go. It had to go, but now it has to go... more. So we finally found the very first Shennanigans with the entirely perfectly setup engine that had no problems being pulled apart to improve on 'was perfectly fine'. Cam bearings looked a bit... stock. Which isn't entirely bad given they were stock and this is a ~20 year old engine. So new cam bearings are on the way because it's somewhat difficult to get to this stage to do it later, and it will trash the block. It was quite unusual that it wasn't done when the perfectly new-looking VCM cam was originally installed by [unknown] What IS unusual is the cam that was installed there was advanced SIX degrees. As to why there is no way to know.. however it could have been @Dose Pipe Sutututu's mate who wanted a larger cam sound but also wanted it to come on earlier to be more usable. This is my dyno sheet with the previous setup - This cam is not supposed to peak until 7000+ RPM, according to VCM. This is what lead me down the whole 'my heads/intake setup is running out of puff and can't support the cam' line of thinking to begin with. Anyway too late now - New cam is in! It could be rather funny if this smaller cam acts like a larger cam because it isn't advanced six degrees. In the spirit of everything is working amazingly - the COMP cam required no dialling in whatsoever. It was about 0.5 degrees advanced, which seems pretty bang on. Any adjustment either way would be further out. I'm told as a chain breaks in it ends up regarding back about 0.5 a degree as the chain breaks in, making it bang on. In the spirit of everything was previously working amazingly - The timing gear that was taken out turned out to be was an N-Motion double timing chain kit, with adjustable cam gear (which is how it was 6 degrees advanced) and all looks entirely perfectly new. It also had a Torrington bearing, which was one of the reasons I ended up getting the Cloyes kit which they used in the C5R 24 hour racecar - Because I couldn't confirm what was in the engine when talking to Tony Mamo. I did believe however it was a Double chain kit of some kind... but found no supporting documentation or evidence for it.
    • I recently did this to my R33 with the full set from Car Mats Direct, they can't do the vinyl anymore that's advertised on the website due to a supplier issue so I ended up with the Black Loop Pile which looks great. I went all out with rubber sound deadening sheets from Repco and also added the sound deadening foam layer option with the carpet. Makes a world of difference and got rid of all the weird smells in the 29 year old interior. It was a bit of work but I'd 100% recommend it, Car Mats Direct had awesome customer service and quick postage. Replaced my seats with some sporty ones from Autotechnia while I was at it, feels like a new car.
