hey guys I'm picking up a flood damaged A31 tomorrow to for parts, (RB20E man) as I need a bit of suspension/steering shit for mine

but if any of you need some bits let us know, but if you want stuff, you gotta come get it, (gold coast area)

i'm going to try and get it going first, then i'll tear it down

its full of mud/ oil / thinners and crap it smells like ass inside so electrical shit won't be much chop

ok I have more, but it isnt letting me put them up, just the one, WTF they are taken off an Iphone, the first one was ok but it says the next is too big!?! HELP!

this car is a clone of mine its the same colour and primer boot like mine, and it was at a tyre shop 100metres from my work, so rocked up and scored the sucker

anyway i'm not super keen to be shipping stuff around the planet, as I don't have the time during the week, but that depends on what it is that you need over in the UK my man, you could shout me a ticket and I'll delivier the bits in person?action-smiley-069.gif

i'll post smaller stuff around, but if yas any big stuff, you gotta come get it,

I need it for the console, suspension stuff, and the 2WS conversion

Need to resize the images.

Think total is 2MB...

I'm keen on the handbrake lever including cable.

Cup holder DIN thing under CD player if it's still got it

I might be after some boot lining and shit (the hard plastic stuff), post more pics and lemme know how much you if you're willing to ship to WA.

Where exactly in QLD are you?

My work has a branch over there and they send shit to Perth weekly, comes in handy for getting stuff from East to Perth unpackaged, free :D

I may need the H/B yet, but prob not

I'll compare it to a S13 one I have and if they are similar, cef ones yours, and I have to have a look at the tray under the radio see if its the same as a facelift one, cause I want all the console for mine

boot trims look intact, just oil/mud logged. i,m smack between briz and the gold coast, work in west brisbane, wheres your brisbane branch?

Work's branch is in Brendale.

I think S13 handbrake is very close.

Do double check, butt he way I'd do it: punch opening in the floor for the main cable, link the main up to the 2 cables, then mount the handbrake bracket/assembly.

Rather than mount the handbrake first

Let me know how you go.

I'm actually just after some really stupid little parts:

1) On the dashboard, in front of the driver, right up against the windscreen is a transparent square plastic blanking plate that covers a sensor of some sort

2) The little bit of rubber that goes between the rear view mirror and the windscreen

3) One of the little round pushpin things that hold the wind deflectors to the top of the doors

4) One of the little grey plastic screws that holds the plastic trim to the B pillar.

Shouldn't be too much hassle to post them to the UK?

Ive had a look at the trnsparent plastic doofa, both lugs are snapped off, in was glued in but the top is intact

I couldn't find any type of rubber in the area you've described, post up a pic

same with you're wind deflectors, do you mean monsoons? if so it doesn't have them but put a pic up

those plastic clips are missing from this car and mine but I used some aftermarket wurth ones instead

and I love your ride thats a minter!

    • Surely the merged entity will be called "Honda" given the relative company values. I've got to be honest, I don't understand how merging 2 companies that missed EVs (despite Nissan making the first mass produced one) will solve their problems
    • If you haven't bought the ECU yet, I would strongly consider buying a modern ECU. Yes it is very easy to setup and tune, however it is lacking many of the features of a modern ECU. The pro plug in is something like 10 or 12 years old now? Can't remember exactly but it is very dated now. In that time the Elite was released and now we have the Nexus platform.  I would strongly consider not buying the ECU that is 3 generations old now (especially as it isn't a cheap ECU!). 
    • Im happy for it as long as it means reanult gets the boot 
    • Sorry I should have been more clear with the previous post.  The block is a sanding block - picture something like this https://motorguard.com/product/motor-guard-bgr161-bgr16-1-rigid-psa-sanding-block-2-5-8-x-16/ The guide coat is the paint It's two separate things I was talking about, there is no "block guide coat". 
    • Maybe more accurately, you aren't just dulling the existing paint, you are giving the new paint something to 'grab on to'. By sanding the existing paint, you're creating a bunch of pores for the new paint to hook on to.  You can lay new paint over existing paint without sanding it, might last a year or two then sad times. The paint will peal/flake off in huge chunks. By sanding it, the new paint is able to hang onto it and won't flake off.  Depends on the primer you are using. When you buy your paint, as the paint supplier what grit of sand paper to use before you lay down the primer.  Use whatever you like as a guide coat. Pick a colour that really stands out in contrast to the paint. So say your sanding/painting a currently white car, using a black guide coat would work well. You very lightly lay the black guide coat down, then as you sand the car with the large block, all the high spots and low spots will stand out as the black paint is sanded off (or isn't sanded off).  When you buy your paint, hit up your supplier for recommendations for what paint to use for a guide coat if you're unsure what would work well with your setup.
