The 33 is going ok. Took it to bridport yesterday for a blast. Its going really well but i have to get an exhaust for it as its very loud on the highway. It only has the 3inch dump pipes into 4inch collector :).

Stock cat back FTW :)

Yeah i know there is not much if i increase the displacment, it's more of a "can i do this" approach.

Hay GMB, do you need a hand with the liner to get it back on the road. I am seing a man about a dog today, i'll see if he has any rear quater windows for you.

Yeah i know where your coming from cobber, i look forward to seeing the project take off :P

Motor is out so now i have to strip it down, swap everything over and attatch the box then drop it back in. Whilst im doing that i have to take the FMIC off and drain/flush the 4L of oil i it :)

Do the piping for the FMIC so it flows better with less joins, see if i can find an auto electrician to give me a hand to tidy up the wiring in the engine bay and look at the headlights. Then there is a matter of all the little fiddly things that i have put off since i first got the car :)

Be great if you can find a window cobber, it would be much appreciated :)

Cheers GMB

Ok so i've decided to keep the car till the end of this year and do a few little things to it.

Im praying for some dry weather so i can drop the motor and box back in and get the thing running and on the road again.

Oh and i found a 1/4 window and its on its way :cool::thumbsup::sleep:

Now where did i put that shopping list :laugh:

hi GMB. ill come and give you a hand on the auto elec side of things if you like. i could make the trip down for a day and do it all for you. if theres one thing i love its tidying up wiring on imports.

i could give you a run down on some of the cars ive worked on but that would be bragging.

let me know anyway (pm)

HA HA HA thanks cobber but its a bit of a drive just to give someone a hand on there car for the day :P

my can Has been dynoed and tuned....and we have joined the 300 club .........301.8 rwkw for the R33.......happydays!

Pretty impressive figure cobber, any plans to use the car for anything in particular at all???

UPDATE FOR ME:

shopping list is getting smaller and car is getting closer to being on the road again :rofl:

My electrical issue's will be the "slowing factor" as its a bigger job than i anticipated, damn Japanese and there scotch locks :laugh:

whats up with the electronics?

Its dodgy and doesn't work in some cases and i want to tidy it up.

Trying to trace back some of the wires is an absolute nightmare though :woot:

I have to modify and rewire my headlights so i can actually see at night, fix ALL the wiring behind the dash and wire in the gauges.

Where the little shiznits broke in and destroyed the ignition barrel/wiring i have to fix that as well along with removing the earth kit that was in the car.

let me know what you think

So come on Leigh

we all know you've been working on the 33 so time for some pics and specs :O

No, haven't done anything to the car for ages. Going to put the cage in that I have got very shortly, but thats about it.

    • So you're now accepting offers of 10% more than the cost of the turbo kit fitted?
    • No......not yet Minister for War and Finances has stated that the Commodore has to go first Not that I am going to modify the NC any more than what it is already modified now.....
    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
