  1. i cant find any struts so im probably getting mine custom mounted, something to think about if you are having trouble like me.
  2. oil/water lines also included. $950
  3. I organised today to take it to a bloke to get them custom mounted. If you can get them ill just go down that road, but if not ive got a backup plan. Import or aussie GTS, as long as they have the 4" spacing between the centre of each calliper mount hole. Its the part that the shock sits in, and calliper bolts to. good luck
  4. After racing a number of rb20det powered cars, I am of the opinion that this is a bit of a waste of money... UNLESS you are going to do it properly and go something like T3, full exhaust, fmic + chipped ecu, as RB20DET's with boost/exhaust in 31's and 32's in highway roll on's are not a lot quicker than me (RB30E with exhaust intake and timing). If you are going to use a front mount, slightly bigger turbo and the other usual stuff, go for it, but if its going to be pretty much standard, you might be a bit dissapointed after spending all that time and money for a small improvement. RB20DET + mods + R32 brakes =
  5. just got swaybars on, and new front tyres. Need neg camber on the front, and brakes to go on, and then its all systems go. Having major trouble finding front struts (the bit the calliper bolts to, and the shock sits in) with 4" calliper mount spacing (same as yours scott)... this is the only real holdup!

    Skidpan Day

    skidpan day is NOT cancelled. it is still GO GREEN LIGHT BOOGIE HAPPENING COOKIN and all of the above. Im bloody keen, this waiting is giving me the shits, but i cant do anything about it. Its all good kids
  7. erin i will check for you. They do porches, mercs, track cars, everything. Tomorrow night i will have an answer.
  8. Excellent. I'll talk to steve about a date and time. I have a real ' thing' about tyres, so Im keen as. boxhead - its only the toombul brance AT THIS STAGE. It's a particularly good place and hes really pushing for it, but im trying to get statewide discount cards.
  9. i think they are 7", its printed on the wheel. "X"JJ - with X being a number, denoting how many inches wide they are.
  10. Yeh but nitrogen is fairly inert. It will leak out just like air. Imagine a drink, 80% coke, 20% rum. Mostly coke, but it'll affect you, wherease 100% coke is totally different. My Bob Jane guy gives free top ups after you use nitrogen. Im going to try it, you never know if you never go.
  11. Bob Jane T-Marts are looking after SAU QLD with discount cards. My local BJ is the Toombul store, owned by a very enthusiastic bloke named Steve. When I told him what the go was with the club, he took me on a tour of the place, whacked 50 or so VIP discount card in my hand, gave me a discount on my tyres, and talked to me about having a little get together there. He wants our business, a lot. His store is set up so that no matter how low a car is, it will go over the hoists, as they are sunk into the ground, uses soft rubber chocks, does everything from track cars to XF's etc etc. Very picky with his balancing as well (took great pride in it). He proposed we could have a meet up there, maybe BBQ and some drinks (light beers only) check out the facility, talk to him about tyres, handling, talk about nitrogen (talked to me about it, very happy he did) and maybe put your car up on the hoist if you want them to have a look at something etc. The car park is secure and could be blocked off, and the traffic islands are painted on, so no damage to spoilers (the guys a bit of a revhead) Thats the situation. (jeez i sound like a BJ ad) Who would be interested in a little meet like this? Thoughts/opinions/interest please.
  12. Need price for R32 GTST 4 piston callipers front - on an R31 Australian Skyline. How long does it take to get them? pics please.
  13. what a load of bollocks. Drift is drift, its not about who does it, where, or in what car, its about mad sideways action and very large testicles (or boobs for girl drifters). Nothing more, nothing less.
  14. Parts holdup....HOPEFULLY be ready by then scott! i have no a/c system so i wont have that problem. marc - u know you want to.
  15. R33 GTS-t RB25DET head for sale. $999 Complete head, comes with following extras still attached- Injectors + rail, intake manifold/plenum, exhaust manifold, throttle body, spark plugs. PM or reply with interest.
  16. maybe its due to the relatively sudden rise of the front of the car that may make attesa think they car is being launched?
  17. Guys, relax. We have been around a long time, and not much will change at all once we get the club officially set up. Just a little bit more professional, im trying to get a higher standard of event organisation going, more/better events, but NO BIG CHANGE. The club is going, it has been for a long time, just making things official. Once everything is finalised we can come out with total clarity and detail, we all work long hours and we are getting there, just a bit of time.
  18. Yeah good cruise guys, next time I will gather everyone around and implement a system used in trail riding, where at every turn, you wait for the person behind you before turning off, that way, noone can ever be left behind. Who was in the R31 that was behind me and belgarion when we were chasing the commodore up tambourine???
  19. 3l. The idea of having a motor built while the car is still on the road, then the bonus of being able to sell the old RB25, helps further tip the scales. Exactly, and when you go to sell the car, its got an RB30DET with big hp = good resale to the right buyer. You know what to do
  20. Im still good. Who's leading through the mountains?
  21. ive been quoted 800 for a new lsd centre installed only, no new bearings, nothin. Every quote for full bearings/lsd install is over 1k. Unfortunately, its one part of R31 life that is relatively expensive.
