Exhaust sits much nicer now. Wondering where you purchased your Magnaflow muffler from and how long it took to arrive.

The inside of my rear muffler is broken and looking to replace with a decent quality one once my car is back on the road.

Been playing with it an hour here and there every time I get a chance and have got a little done but haven't been able to finish it due to parts suppliers being closed

Started looking like this

After a bit of measuring and cutting I was able to fit the crank sensor, not the cleanest cut but with the limited room it was the best I could do

Also as a side note I had a 500hp ati blanacer sitting around and it will not fit with this kit and either will the factory balancer. So am going to buy the big ati balancer when then suppliers open back up and try that

  • Like 1

It's not the wheel, it's the bracket that holds the sensor sits proud and the edge of the balancer lines up with it and won't allow the balancer to go all the way home

The bit circled in red is where is hits

Finally got a chance to work on it today and got the crank trigger all wired up and working through the ecu

Here's what it now looks like

Next will be to fit this little puppy

Been a bit slack with the updates but time hasn't really been on my side either,

I got all the interior back in and everything looks as per factory apart from 2 little bumps under the carpet against the sill

Got the ecu to recognize the flex sensor and wideband sensor but haven't enabled them as I will leave that for jez when the car is dropped off to him.

Fitted and wired the 3 bar map sensor but once again I will let jez enable that and hook up the hose, just cause the on board one needs to be disabled at the same time.

Also went to the local United and grabbed 80L of car God juice

Am proud of the sti as it fits 4 jerry cans with space to spare

I just gave it a very over due wash and tomorrow morning it's booked in for a wheel alignment to fix up the castor after installing the rods, then straight up to jez for touch up and then enable the flex fuel to see what these little turbos can do

Tuning has started and one of the first things jez noticed is how smooth the rpm signal is with the crank trigger set up

The blue line is the rpm signal and there is no wave in it what so ever

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
