Oh dear....is it bad? Photo aint clear :/

[MGZRod]

Yeh was about 3 degrees and shaking like Michael J Fox. Bonnet, bumper, possibly wing and front slam panel section. Non fault too, apparently junctions don't mean stop any more

[Shenanigans]

Oh well..fingers crossed its just cosmetic.

[OlberJ]

Ouch, sore one Rod.

Thinking of changing it or fixed and back on the road?

Don't know. Was planning on selling and had my eye on a lovely S14a 200SX and if that failed, an RX7 Type R.

But, that's 3 non fault claims in 1 year so I believe my insurance is going to jump up, a lot. So those plans will be out the window because of imcompetant tools who can't drive.

Break it for parts mate, is the engine good?

Decided to finally sign up on here, I know a few members quite well. One being Rod. Anyway here is my car, EK9 Type R.

4-2-1 Mugen Manifold
Mugen B Pipe
Mugen Twin-Loop Exhaust

Gave the wheels a rattle-can paint a few weeks ago as the paint on them was knackered anyway, new tyres were going on and I'll likely get them properly refurbished after winter:

TBH, I think I still prefer silver wheels on it.

Love the Jager sticker!

unknown ecu , i take it the car is mapped for uk fuel ?

[DaveTaylor]

Ye it's mapped for high octane, vpower is all I put in. We think it's a Jun ECU as it has the same markings in Japanese but doesn't actually tell you when plugged into a computer.

You know when you get those squares when your computer can't read a Japanese character, that's what the mapping software does. But it can read/write etc to the ECU

Dave got his at around new year. Was a fresh import through Torque, think one of our mates has bought the car you're on about though.

[DaveTaylor]

Steven's shell went up north for a k20 swap out, Andrew bought Vito's old EK9. Mine as Rod said was imported over new year last year, it was around this time last year I won the auction in Japan and it arrived in the UK on the 12th January.

One last thing, got any "all out" video to listen to the sound it makes?
