The ***ALL NEW*** AUSubaru.com.au Forums

I'd be replacing the entire clutch as a kit, including pressure plate, clutch plate and thrust bearing. No reason at all to go genuine, any well known aftermarket brand should do just fine. $480 is an absolute rip, I got my pull type turbo Exedy kit for less than $370! Surely a non turbo clutch kit ...

LTurbo - ok, I didn't know that! That would turn me off Datto's for life!

4Muff - I agree with you 100% The R33 and R34's will always be the pinnacle of Skylines, regardless of what they release from now on.

Thanks for the delay Mattims. *Should* be ready by then.

I wouldn't mind giving the 4MUFF WRX a run, I seem to remember there was some significant work done to it? I kinda want to be beaten on my first run so the Leone doesn't stand out so much...

You can buy them new online.

I only know this because I own an MY, unfortunately this mob don't do an MY top!

I think they called it a fairy - ie figment of the imagination.

I've seen 4 photos all up, 4 different Brat's. One was an obvious photochop, the others were done better. I seem to remember a post on the old board or USMB maybe with someone proving they were fictional.

Does this mean they won't cost me? :P :P

I'll have to catch up with you soon, shouldn't be hard seeing as you've only got an EA82t.

LOL. Cheers, glad it made sense.

MAF - Mass Air Flow. Basically this sensor counts the volume of air entering the engine, and from this the ECU calculates engine load and thus adjusts the amount of fuel accordingly. The 02 sensor is the telltale on this, basically lets the ECU know how much fuel was actually burnt. BAC - Bypass air...

I'm pretty sure that's a photochop Aspro.

Brumby Crewman eh? Considering the size of a rear seat in an MY (or an L for that matter) I'd be wondering why you'd bother.

I think it's great, I am very happy they kept the 4 circle lights at the rear. better than the 350z. They have to if they want to call it a Skyline. The four lights are synonymous with the name. Well except for the R31 wagons that is... I think it looks like a bad rip on the Z. That's 180 degrees f...

Well Subamike is the one to talk to then, his MY runs an EJ18 SPFI.

AFAIK he runs the 070 bosch pump, WITHOUT a surge tank!

I used the Nulon Lifter free stuff, we sell it at my work. It's crap and I won't sell it to anyone after using it.

Super X all the way.

idle is meant to be controlled by the ECU... so it being higher now is a little odd. Dave You can adjust the idle via the idle screw on the side of the throttle body (touches the throttle linkage). Subaru did this when my mum asked for the idle to be turned up slightly on the Forester. The screw al...

As well as you could expect a low compression 2l to run...

I'll help with an EJ20T swap...


Actually I'll help with anything if I'm bored

As per phone call, I'll be up for 2.

Oh, and AFAIK EJ alternators differ slightly model to model, my EJ20G alternator has 4 wires as opposed to EJ22 ones which have 3 wires. At a guess I'd say the EJ18 would have a three wire as well, but you'd prolly be able to wire in whichever you find. As for the mounting brackets, I'm really not s...

Im not aware of any ea81 model car having a return line. Not in Australia Dave, but our friends across the Pacific had them in their "Turbo Traction" models. The stock VL pump as fitted to them off the production line was apparently a really noisy unit. The Bosch one can be noisy too, but only if i...

LOL! Sorry, I'll side with smoov on this one. Only BMW I've ever driven was a 2002 320i - and to date it's the most refined car I've ever driven. Not bad considering it was the pov-pack. As for the extractor issue, its not pointless on a boxer engine. It's pointless on a siamese-port engine with hea...

I don't need to steal one, so I'll let you guys sort that out.

Maybe I should give them another run. When I went on a cruise with those guys last year I was surprised that I had nearly the slowest car there.. only car slower was a GX-RS swap that was otherwise factory...

Maybe we should gatecrash the RS meet...
