Legit, between me and 2 mates we got 5 sets are they stamped rays and made in japan at the back where the studs go in then they are real aalot of fakes out there mr pelvin dont get sucked in only cause i almost did once but now have the genuine article

version 8 are still on the expensive side for what they are but in saying that they are nice cars only been for a ride in one once better turbos than version 7s (twin scroll) some say better looks but thats down to personal preference

are they legit rays the 16inch subi rays or the dreaded fakes

took out springs put in new ones rears needed different tophats so took em all out again

yup ethanol fuel is very good most of the dudes in aussie are running it rather than petrol for the exact thing your talking about saif down sides are that you chew through it faster than normal petrol gotta be some merit to it the V8 supercars run on it look how much power they make some of them are 9 sec cars down the quarter

also if your that worried about knock toulene mixed with petrol in the right quantities will up the ron

with subie boy on this only ever use Mobil 98 reckon its 10 times better than BP ultimate... BP's min ron rating is also 97.5 as with Mobils and Shell does have 2 fuels that are better than both they are just not sold locally only in australia.. The first is Shell optimax which is a 98ron fuel and also has better mon ratings than Mobil and they also sell BP 100ron in 20 litre drums maybe we should write to Shell and get them to stock it here

Depends on whos right and whos wrong..... If l fill mine with helium will it give me a weight reduction? Maybe.......... just a thought

touche LOL

was watching the bidding and one of them was cafeprincess

illegal in australia to unless its enclosed in something bro excessive induction noise

are you cafeprincess LOL

its gonna be good

yup had a version 2 96 i reckon the my codes were for countries outside of japan cause aloy of rexs I have seen over the years have been like this like my myo1 version 7 is a 2000 model or am i just talking shit somebody please correct me

always down to give you hand brad dont know much but can spin a spanner like a mofo

yeah pappu think i got the wrong springs

the rears didnt fit unless they are the wrong springs the top of the rears taper in where the standard rear tophat cannot accomadate the taper what am i doing wtrong do i need version 8 tophats spring part number is R-s1s59-010370 GKC

done 2000kms ago so quite fresh all bearings seals waterpump blah blah blah damn sure its the aircon if thats what its is next to the alternator had a listen again when i got home took it for a drive and when the car was warm it was gone

hey you saw my shit box pelvin i only fill the rex every 2 to 3 weeks and the shitbox gets 25 maybe 30 a week if that never do maintenance cause it only cost me $300 i use the old oil from the rex for it only register it for 3 month intervals incase it breaks down and cant be fixed on the cheap 2nd hand tyres for like $30 and a dodgy warrant for $60

got a bomb a bg familia had the club wash it at the carwash fundraiser

Whats everyone thinking now that 98ron is up in the $2.30 mark anyone thinking of letting go of their pride and joy and go cheaper

nah dont think its aircon was gonna try the belts when i got time and take em off one by one will fill yas all in

cool lets hear it or point me to the threads please my version 2 had a tdo5h 90 degree inlet and it was just a rex non sti so am very curious maybe the aussie cars had td04s or something

hey guys just heard a strange whining noise on start up it does not get faster when the car is revved only on start up (cause by the time i got to the mechanic it stopped) and its coming from the front of the car round near the alternator and aircon i think any one had this

all very valid answers but yes slap him
