  1. Yeah id be keen on one of those too, I need to upgrade my fuel pump anyway in preparation for eventual ECU/Tune so might as well.
  2. Even worse is hampton downs just under half tank fuel surge which is after like 2 sessions
  3. Hmmm, at least i know for future, though im too scared to run it below the 1/4 line which is ~45L
  4. Inc reserve? 7-8L on fuel light seems quite a bit.
  5. I thought mine didnt have a low fuel light it since ive had it on the empty line a few times with no light. I found out it does have one however after coming back from the coromandal, and that its also hidden from my eye line by the gauge pod on the steering wheel thing...Was a bit scary seeing it on and havign no idea how long the light has been on for.. Filled up 53L, anyone know how big the GC8 sti tanks are? v6?
  6. Got my old pink rims fitted with second hand dunlop 03G semis, plastidipped them black. Really need ot get my spoiler refitted..
  7. Yeah, im pretty sure thats what helped cause it/why i keep cracking rotors too. Though I bough the pagid yellows which seemed to help last time, and now have semi slicks for next trackday in april, so might pull the abs plug out and try that as well. Yeha I was doing warmup/down laps not using the brakes and rotating the wheels while parked up with handbrake off. The pad to the bottom had even less meat on it, like 1mm or less. *the pad in the middle is just an oem style pad for comparison*
  8. I must be hard on brakes bendix ultimates after 2 trackdays in a stock sti on road tires.
  9. +1 pagid, tried bendix ultimates but found them ****, only lasted 2 trackdays before completely melted. Worked ok for the first couple of laps then turned to ****.
  10. Winger North shore, and I think Greenlane as well, told me they couldnt get new v7 sti blocks when i asked last year
  11. THIs one? It just kinda pulls over
  12. I think mine just had clips on the side you pull to the side them it pulls out. I remember it being rather difficult to get off though. Ill take it off and grab a pic if you still need to see it.
  13. if you dont have the factory one then you will have the abs gear in the way since those models dont have abs. i just unplugged the rear wiper and redirected that pump to spray water. strongs can do the button, it was like 50$ i think so didnt bother.
  14. see what these go for http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=806265313
  15. Theres a few 3g gps trackers on ebay/aliexpress that have tons of positive reviews for ~$50. I keep meaning to get one but forget. Has realtime tracking as well for just the cost of keeping the sim card topped up. Can do the txt for gps as well, but as far as im aware the data cost is **** all.
  16. Would def be keen on this if i dont find a cheap linkPFC beforehand.
  17. Got some new wheels 17x7 rays with 225/45s. Also just noticed some **** has stolen my sti valve caps
  18. I remember before about reading about GC8/GF8 rear strut bracing compatability and some people saying yes wagon brace will fit sedan ok? Which of these is most likely to fit? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=790863464 http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=790866756 http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=790866972 http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=790863819
  19. Bought a headunit for it since the pioneer that was in it is a bit old and scratched up. Bluetooth calling is nice, but its actually slower to read/start playing music off my ipod than my old one. WOnder if tis to do with just using USB on this one, and a proper designed for ipod cable/port thing on the old one. Really need to get a proper gauge hood.
  20. For now, yes. Im kinda liking being able to see out the back window... Also swapped over the locks form my old boot to the new one so I can actually open it with a key now. Only other issue with the boot is without the wing it springs up so fast when you realse the catch if youre not careful itll take your face off.
  21. Rear end looking a bit better. Pulled out the pushed in corner and repainted/alighned bootlid. From: to
  22. Im pretty sure hes quite sick of seeing my car now, but yeah very happy with it. Its in at the panelbeaters now getting the rear end damage pulled out and straightened up and my bootlid painted. never ending money expenditure it seems.
  23. engine run in finished, bpoost back up, 17psi is heaps more fun than 8...
