Is it easyer to fix with a brand new cv or repalce the axle with a 2nd hand one in good condition? It has started to click only on the front right side Cheers

^ +1 Like👍

Aw sweet cheers,spencer james type r has them and they sound so dam nice! Keen as for a set,il check fortyone

Hey does anyone know were to buy syms headers brand new? Had a quick look on trademe and didnt see anything apart from redline ones

I would figure out why your engine packed up after 30 000ks first before buying a new block

I will contact my mate i know he will be interested Can you advise on any mods b4 hand?

^ Were are you based?can you give me a ruff price?

Sweet cheers!

So is this about right? -v5 type r gc8f2dd -v6 type r gc8g2dd

Yea possibly bro i just dont see any 98s that match up to that code on those charts its all 99s?

Has been rebuilt by pbms 50 000ks ago all reciptes so not sure if its the original block Cheers 😊

Not 100% sure Iv looked through all those charts and its got me really confused Like i said at the start,the owner told me it was v6,but it was built in decmber of 98 so it could possibily be,he bought it off the importer who also said it was v6 Any help is appreciated

Heres the tag

-Spencer Hes guna send me a pic soon of the tag so il post it up And yea marky i couldnt agree more,this is his daily car and i dont think he wants to track it anytime soon,the car is quick now but would like to get the max benifits if we can maintain the stock ecu,yes i know a link will be better but were doing this on cost Iv seen alot of good replies on reflashed ecus,so i dont see why not if its possible

Lol uh i never said it was a v7 Iwas jus compairing what my mate told me wn he got his v7 done And i dont see how it can be the same price?a g4 alone will cost more than a reflash then its like another 1200 for a tune?

@sequence how can you tell?no hate just wondering what you look for to tell its a v5 And yea obviously link is always guna be the best option,not compairing or nething but a mate of my had a reflash done last year on his v7 and said it was the best thing hes done Im just going on cost,any link+tune is going to cost alot Compaired to a simple reflash,it has all the mods it needs for a street used car do ithink a link is abit over board for what he uses the car for

Okay cool il get a picture today of the tags,he seemd to think it was one of the 1st v6\'s,built in december 98 so it could possibly be? As for the ecu remap its a cheap option,not many people can afford a g4+ tune so for the price of a reflash isnt too bad Cheers

Hmm,ithought these ecus were remapable ,the seller seemed to think it was a v6,but im guessing its only a v5 then?any way to tell?

My mate just picked up this 98 type-r Can the ecu be reflashed?im not 100% sure Its got all the basic mods and looking to install a vf30 and a reflash if possible Cheeers👍

Worth checking all your vacume lines that run off the ebc Had the same issue on my mates car,turned out to be a kink in the vac line causing it to read vac still,my guess was the air was caught in there,replaced the hose and its fine now

95% sure this was on t.m 2months ago, And if i remember right it was running a rs block with unknown kms Prty sure this is the same car As for 29psi-your gearbox and diff would have shat itself,and a rod out the block

Allgd man,yea i found the relay that stops the fan running,stil abit weird thoe. Marc what you mean by ac circuit?aircon stopd running the day the fans started running,iv removed the relay for now to stop it running but still need aircon on this cold mornings!lol

If there was a blown fuse for aircon would that keep the fans running tho?

But dont you think its abit strange that the aircon stoped working and then fans keep running,has to be wiring somewere

Any links to that thread joker?
