Hi all,

With the help of some people on here, and the Japanese auctions, I've finished converting my S2 prime edition from woodgrain to silver (that was always my intention).

I still have all my woodgrain bits in good condition, sitting in a box in bubble-wrap, and I really need to move them on. I also know that some people on here are closet woodgrain fans...

I'll endeavor to pull them out to take photos in the next couple of days but you probably know what these are anyway, so here is a list for now:

All these parts were removed from my S2 prime with 88,533 on the clock, and I think the prices are fair considering what I've paid for these trim pieces in silver:

Buyer to pay postage please, should be $15 max for even the larger items within Australia, let me know if you want registered, express etc.

  • woodgrain centre console aircon vent surround with stagea writing & emblem (fits above stereo) - good condition, $50
  • woodgrain stereo surround (xanavi style) - good condition, $50
  • woodgrain ash tray - good condition, $20
  • woodgrain tiptronic gear surround, bare except for cigarette lighter socket, rubber square around shifter hole, and a small 'knobbly bit' which is barely noticeable on the crease of the cigarette lighter socket (probably ciggie lighter related, I'll get a photo) - good condition, $50
  • woodgrain cup holders (mount in centre console under radio) - good condition, $25
  • woodgrain driver's side door switch plate, without switches - good condition, $25
  • woodgrain passenger door switch plates, without switches - good condition, $25 for all 3

That is all the woodgrain pieces that were in my prime edition when I got it, except for the wheel (which I have swapped with a woodgrain fan on SAU :) ), and would give your S2 a complete factory-standard woodgrain interior.

Please note that to the best of my knowledge the tiptronic gear surround will not suit series 1's as theirs is different (no tiptronic).

I think that the rest of the parts will fit series 1, but I can't guarantee it... recommend you try a search here first or ask someone.

Feel free to ask for photos, I have a digital camera and I'm not afraid to use it...

Cheers :P

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
