  1. Well well well, looky here http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=83189
  2. Oooooooooooooooooo, bad day, bad day...... I heard martians are invading.
  3. Is that the cooling pro ones? I got one of them last year with the top and bottom hoses to match. No probs with old radiator but for track and drag i will help in the long run. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=117584 Thickness of top tank is 40mm, radiator width is a little less if I remember correctly. Shroud did not fit back onto mine
  4. I just had a quote on respraying my bonnet and fixing some rust + respray on my rear shotgun arch. $450 and $800 respectively. Bonnet spray included fender 'runover' for a better matching colour.
  5. Whats wrong with that I had very badly worn Wanli's when I bought my car. Turning in the rain was always a joy. Power output was 193hp at the rears back then. Launch out of first......hit speed imit...................hit red line, change to 5th and brake.
  6. I have suspension going on my car in early Feb so I will probably make this one, but I will post interest when/if I have a 'working' car by then.... Things have been known to go wrong STILL WITH THE STREET TYRES I am the resident street tyres lap times measure
  7. ok, nearly a half price drop, this is one insane GTR for well under what its worth Good luck mate although its taken nearly 3 years
  8. By taking it apart and installing it that way would be like installing it the wrong way around..... The bar is not supposed to run over the twin turbo pipe as much as it does. I might just ask where I bought it from if they have GTR and gtst ones anyway..... Stupid inconvenience.
  9. I ordered this 2 weeks ago and was gunna get it installed with my suspension next month, but know I am wondering whether I have been given the wrong type! Heres the right way around and the bolt holes don't match up But it does match the other way around.... Could this be an R33 or a gtst strut brace? Heres what the side of the box said
  10. The VE's are ugly, way to 'waste' a billion Holden. The Walkinshaw title cannot be claimed by that green machine. The Walkinshaws aerodynamic kit was developed in a proper wind tunnel in the UK and is suppose to be one awesome aero package at that. I'll never buy a V8. Did you know only 4 of the cylinders work in the VS's and older, its true..... The other 4 KILL BABIES.

    brace was from Perfect Run. DCS carbon fibre model. http://www.perfectrun.com.au/performance%2...rutbracebar.htm Cost was $201, although my conversion of Y18500 using www.xe.com came to $195 but oh well. Shipping was for 2.7kg which included the brake lines and it came to $59.

    I received my strut brace and brake lines today. Thought they were pretty. Not real CF unfortunately , but it does only weigh 1.2kg Someone at JIC can't spell, lol And along with the reset of this crap I should be sit'n pretty. Going in for the stainless kermit intake piping soon. Hopefully next week if kermit is ready No sticker HP this time but now the R needs rust repaired on the rear guard, bonnet and bar resprayed. I've been putting that off for too long Say Hi to your mum for me
  13. I'll be asking for a quote from Advanced Panel & Paint in Osborne Park soon. I will be getting my front bar and bonnet sprayed. Will post quote soon. How do I prep my bonnet and bumper BTW??
  14. Some of these looks great, I will definately have to get mine done soon
  15. I have similar mods to you (minus clutch) on my 32GTR and have 34GTR turbos. Currently 240rwkw @ 15psi. I have a few more mods planned before I hit turbos (GT-SS or N1's for 300-320rwkw), I spose I can 'hope' for 250kw with these turbos, maybe.
  16. Thats not sex, thats rape Bad luck man, a lot of rear ending going on lately Daaaaann!
  17. Why you ungrateful yuppi Unless you already have an iPhone or a Blackberry or a functional phone palm pilot....... That is one helluva gift to not want. Buy the gift giver something nice
  18. pffft, that will be like $1500AUD, Aussie exchange rate at the moment is phuking awesome Also, 94Yen to the Dollar
  19. PWR's look great, I think when the time comes these will be my choice. Bang for buck is my logic
  20. I think Ants GTR has proved a simple PFC D-Jetro can handle just about any application from street to track to super drag combat-arama. That thing is running 4 044 fuel pumps for sucks fake.
  21. Theres a lot of speculation about what to get lately, is this because of summer? I am running Mobil 1 5W50 at the moment and was gunna put Motul 10W40 in next month for my routine oil change but your saying its no good for ring cleanliness being semi-synth. So Delvac 5W40 (If I can find it for sale) or Mobil 0W40 would be better and cost less?
  22. If you are still in search for them I called Nissan the other day and they are $193 per corner from them, I need to do both fronts very soon also. I asked specifically for R32 GTR, but I have no idea if they are the same as GTST or for R33 onwards. EDIT: Just called again to order some and 32/33/34 GTR are the same. GTST is probably different again.
  23. lol, this guy is quite funny....
  24. I get this misfire once a month on average. It feels ike the engine just skips a beat, I thought the timing belt was slipping the first time I felt it My recent re-tune brought my knock level right down. At start up it jumps up to 80, but once I reset it and drive, even with a cold engine I rarely see knock over 18 now.
  25. R32 GTR injectors are yellow tops, and standard injectors are 440cc. That is all I know.
