Ok its come time for me to sell my pride am joy to fund my new project

Ive had this car since february this year, i can honestly say ive never had a problem with this car, its reliable as all hell and i used to drive to nourlunga everyday for tafe so the last 10,000 kms are pretty much highway driving and it gets serviced every 5000ish.

Only problem ive had is i snapped the belt that runs the waterpump, watched the temp go up a little an pulled over an diagnosed it straight away. happened almost a year ago an its never overheated since! even on those 40 degree days driving to adelaide

Other things you should know:

Interior is mint bar the rear side panels and bubble in the dash

Passed regency no worries 12ish months ago

All new bushes throughout the car

I have tried my best to remember everything but theres probably some things ive missed.

ANY mechanical check is welcomed as long as i dont have to leave my car anywhere (as its my daily) and as long as it doesnt cost me. as i said it will be on the dyno this week so ill see if there are any problems and get a power reading.

UPDATE: Pulled just under 160kws on the dyno @ 9psi with no boost controller. Guy from jazmac couldnt believe how healthy the engine is!!

Boost controller set for low boost= 10psi at around 165ish kws and high boost= 14psi at around 190ish kws (may even crack 200) will get it on the dyno again if i get time.

    • Hah, I have no issues with what you are doing whatsoever! You clearly know what you are getting yourself into. It's just funny reading things like this. "What's that noise?" "Oh, that's normal. That's just the engine not getting any oil. Nothing to worry about. It'll go away in a moment"  
    • Yeah I'm keeping an eye on it and might take it out as a once off if this doesn't fully charge. I did some research that said it's normal in equalisation charging. Voltage I thought was 20+ (faulty battery in multimeter) but now its on 15.9v, the max it should go to is 16.2v as per the manual. I'll provide an update once hopefully it's actually fully charged and in float mode. Waiting for it to go to 16.2v and not higher and see what happens. What I suspect has happened is that even though it's not an old battery, I did leave the car turned off for almost 4 weeks at one point then left it off for another 2 weeks which might have erroded the battery and is taking a long time to do this equlisation charge.
    • I wouldn't be using the seats a lot since it's on Historic rego and will not be driven a lot, however I also don't want to fork out 3k for something that won't last. Havent looked at BRZ seats, aiming for something of the same era I did speak to him on the phone once, and I do see your point haha. How many kms do you think you drove before they started wearing out? Just had a look at yours, certainly looking for a reclinable version. The Brides don't look too bad! I would still like to sit in one just to make sure it's what I'm after.    Thanks for the replies fellas. 
    • I bought my Bride reps from Crank Motorsport. He is, um, a trifle disorganised. I would have to look back at the e-mails to make sure I got it right, but I think he sent me normal fabric ones when I ordered the "Alcantara" ones. So he had to pay for shipping 3x and I'm sure that f**ked him off big time. And asking technical questions where nuanced English is required is a no go. It's simple English only. And....should I have bought the Alcantara ones? Well, as it turns out, they are great, feel great, etc, but the fabris wore through on the point of the waist bolster in <2 years. Must have caught a rip from a rivet on jeans or shorts, or something like that. So now I have to patch it somehow. A bit shit. My fault, ultimately, because it is Chinesium Faux Alcantara, not the real thing, and it turns ot that it has the tear resistance of a soggy tissue. But the seats and the reails are great. I probably should have gotten the R34 style ones, and now that they price is up in that ridiculous sort of number, I could have sold them for a profit!
    • Another recco is to just let it rest for a while and go back and reconnect later.
