Ah that sux... :P

You mean the rubber strip between the top of the window and the door thingy? or the plastic between the window and the door (ie. when you roll the window down that plastic strip)

Try justjap? or someone selling R33 parts?

lowlifes!

scary enough - i had been having problems with my central locking. It would lock but then would not unlock. Had to open my car using a screw driver and a coat hanger a few times until i had time to take the door trims off and fix the problem.

I took the lock barrels out of my door locks and filled the hole with arildite to make it a bit more difficult for some bastard to steal.

Now im a but scared because i can get into it so so easy.

Good to see ya car wasnt nabbed or anything taken.

Which car park at Castle Towers and where?

The original (old) cinema car park, or the new cinema car park?

Looks like what they've tried to do is push that button on the drivers side which unlocks the passenger door. Disable this switch asap if you haven't already. Take the door trim off and cut the wires.

which coloured wires do ya have to cut to disable that? dun wana go cutting the rong wires, lol

is there any way you can activate electrical current through your door key hole when you arm your alarm so if someone tries to stick a screw driver into it it'll do a bit of damage?

theres an idea for alarm manufacturers!

rofl!! just hook up the 12v batt to the keyhole so when the alarms on it would zap any1 that touches it :) ... if needed put in a small step up transformer, for that added "ouch" effect :)

can't remember. Use a test light and see which one lights when you push the door unlock switch. :D

There is a thread somewhere.

    • Great to hear you are bringing it out of the shed again. Unless you have specific issues I'd just add the wideband, get a good tune and enjoy it. Certainly no point changing coils etc if they are working. If would add fuel pressure and e85 sensor if you are doing a general update but not if it runs OK and you are just getting it back on track. The other thing is smaller, modern twins, -5 are OK for motorsport but pretty laggy and old tech for street use (of course, if performance is the priority a modern single with twin scroll manifold etc is the go but not cheap). The final thing worth considering is switching to an ethrottle if drivability is still an issue, it should make things a lot simpler and smoother
    • Yeah pretty sure they are m4, but best to check, and perhaps use new hardware Also don't over torque them......there was that one time I lost an expensive engine after a workshop overtorqued one of those bolts and it ended up in the oil pump (no, I don't know why they removed the intake mesh either)
    • I might have to shoot them an email. Pity the exchange rate is so bad at the moment. BTW, thanks for posting that table makes interesting reading. 
    • Add these Sensors -Wideband, Oil Pressure, Fuel pressure, Intake air temp Good inspection of ignition system of coils, plugs and loom (12v feed and good ground)- a r35 kit is best bang for buck upgrade. A decent tuner should be able to see any issues with the trigger system- a link has good filtering but a good simple upgrade is the nz wiring bolt in kit. Check and replace all the fuel filters- you would be surprised at intank filter after a few years. Also good to check for any leaks on vac hoses and pipe work as has been said. No need to go overboard and spend big $$$ to enjoy the car. A quality tuner is getting harder to find as anyone with a laptop thinks they are a tuner. A link has great features to check sensor voltages and frequency inputs and easy to see live by pressing f12. The link can do a TPS & RPM fuel/ignition mapping on ITB cars then add a 4D table with MAP and ability to add a 5D to it (can help with economy at cruise with wheel speed vs TPS) Where are you located as that will help narrow down a good tuner ?
    • Reviving an old thread, I reckon my stagea is starting to slip. Car usually gets parked on a hill, narrow driveway so cant go up the driveway smoothly, anyhows, lately first gear feels "sluggish"? Not responsive. Feels like I gotta run the engine more than usual to get off the line...  Any recommendations for transmission servicing in Sydney? Or possibly just an excuse to go manual ?
