A few new goodies for the ol' city

Postby snareth » Thu Jul 28, 2011 2:03 pm

Been collecting a few bits n bobs for the city, have been putting most of the easy stuff but im going on a world trip next year, so the turbo and such will be waiting till i return :)

turbo, intercooler, BOV

Recaros

Image

New carpets(in black, woo woo!!)

Image

Analogue dash ( thanks mikey nz)

Image

And de-baged

Image
Image

Have rims to, but they are too wide......gets the rubbys.

Image

also got a turbo timer and some H22A injectors( i belive they fit? ) And need some suspension.........if only someone on here was making some...... :)

Also i know this has been asked before, but has anyone found a set of suspension bushings and engine mount bushings?

That is all......

What is your old carpet like? If its not worn I might be interested.

turbo is a garret t25, old carpet was pretty knackered....had a bad case of the stinkys....unfortunatly its gone out in the inorganic :) The new carpet from Autodec was $285, but thats not incuding the boot mat......that was an extra $80

sweet ^ just so everyone knows some soap and a water blasting takes care of stinky carpet!

Also what kind of stinky? if moisture stinky may pay to check that the drain tubes for the sunroof are not blocked and all the rubber plugs are in the holes in the floor or your new carpet will end up the same.

mostly age stink......but was a lil wet on the passenger floor......windscreen gets the dribbles if its raining and really windy.....but its getting garaged soon while i go away, then stripped down down n all fixed up when i gets back.....ist got a bit of cancer around the windscreen that needs to be done....though im pretty sure the rust will be much worse when we get it all stripped down.

just remembered there is a couple of citys getting wrecked on trade me.....i asked one guy if he had any carpet, he some grey ones from an auto in good condition for $40, ill see if i can find the auction if you like?

i was just thinking about the repainting......anyone seen a gunmetal grey city before? like the gunmetal on r32 skylines......any good? either that or a nice metallicy silver?

Its the left hand side sill drain holes they will be blocked and need clearing.

If they block in wet weather it back fills the sill and normally leaks in to the floor wells.
