    The GTR tank is spose to be about 72L, but when I fill up I put $70 in which fills it up quite full. $70 = 46.6L, is my tank smaller or something??? I usually manage about 380k's, 90% of that is peak hour traffic. I got 430k's a few weeks ago, I was quite proud
  3. Hello, I have this sudden urge to get my rocker cover powder coated and I was wondering how easy it is to remove the 2 side pieces?. I have been told that the front is easy enough to remove and I have had the top piece off in the past. Any helps? Also, anyone got a retail price on a paint-strip and powder coat of the 4 pieces, plus a chroming of the "Twin Turbo" pipe? cheers Tom

    Turbo

    You mean the manifold? That will cost a fair bit I think and most people get stainless custom welded ones if replacing usually. Just look at getting from the dump pipe back (maybe a hi flow CAT as well) which will cost around $1000-$1200 for a decent one.

    Nice one Dan you confused 'im Cold Air Intake - in the form of a huge pipe running from a front facing position to provide max air flow to your pods. Power FC (FC = Full Computer) - APEXi...........yeah Electronic Boost Controller - Controls Boost....Electronically.
  6. I see no R32 love here!
  7. This is stupid and frustrating, I got 21 maximum so far
  8. Jeebus Cat Woman, they don't look PS'd to me, but damn those hinges must be super strong on the white Hondas rear doors. Thats so pretty crazy arab shit
  9. lol, no pics? I did my bit with the brakes. Now you can start pricing up modifications. EDIT: just saw the pics in the other thread, I wish I was brave enough to strip it all down and do what you did, looks awesome
  10. Well, my car had a rebuild by the previous own so theres a few thigns in there that I can't guess the cost of. For me at the mo its.. 1. PowerFC D-Jetro, EBC and tune - $2552 2. DBA4000 rotors and Ferodo pads - $500 3. Accessories (wheel, knob, etc ) - ~$?
  11. Why drive a car you think needs a rebuild, heavy? Do you want to kill it? Are you sure it needs a rebuild? Get it to a workshop so they can pressure test it etc. and go from there.
  12. Depends on who you take it to, but I'd say between 0.30c and $40.00 worth of damage Bad luck dood
  13. Hey dezz, if you will accept payment around mid June, count me in. I am still interested in the rear lip too.
  14. G25 Wheel Some pics You can notice in the pics that this setup has a clutch, 6 speed manual or a toggle switch for tiptronic gear changes Should be a great piece of kit, but its marked at $300USD at the moment
  15. There is on GT4 at least , AFAIK there is in real life too... N1's also have steel wheel turbos don't they.?
  16. LOL, S14 Commonwhore It also says they were all caught doing burnouts........ "Sorry officer my GTR is 4WD" "Yeah, so" "You can't really achieve these said burnouts with 4WD" "Step out of the car please, sir" "But I didn't...." "YOU DON'T WANT TO CAUSE A SCENE NOW DO YOU, SIR?" (*policeman raises vioce)
  17. Shit that sucks, call the cops and a few local workshops..... What area?
  18. I actually believe imports are less dangerous than Falcodores/Camry's etc. Performance doesnt just include the engine, it also includes brakes, suspension (to say the relevant least) and if you add that to normal law abiding driving your actually better off arent you. Media spins always portray import drivers as speeders and as if we are always "on boost" and accelerating hard because the cars make a pssshhh noise.....Its sad that they will never have their facts right because telling everyone import drivers are bad people on the roads is much better for ratings. Its like forum flaming, every opportunity you get to embarrass someone publically, you take it.
  19. pfft, I average sround 2 hours with all the steps I take, plus a short once over the interior with ArmorAll....get used to it I like that front bar, off a series 3 you say, nice!
  20. oooo, gimme till mid June and I'll be in But I would like to know if anyone can get CF boot lips too coz I'd love one of those as well. P.S. How do you fit that front splitter?
  21. Holy Crap, I just got my renewal from Just Car and its pretty damn good, I didn't expect this at all. I joined with them last year and paid $2200 for a year and I thought it would be similar around the $2000 mark, nope, $1175 for renewl , I was stoked. Thanks though to 8005TED for quoting me from Shannons but I had to stick with Just Car
  22. I didn't post here and thought I lost this thread : OK, cheers, what if he's ordered am 88mm gasket? change it or will it be alright?
  23. Sorry, my battery is still in the engine bay, I was talking about stereo power, just posting picks of the grommet through the firewall....
  24. You can also cheat majorly if you run the car straight over the grass just before the second last corner...and also if you full throttle and hug the wall around the Karoussel you get a faster launch out of the corner. None of my laps involve this, really! Kamikaze I cannot stop watching that video in your sig, its preiceless
  25. wtf, was this just a one off or did they expect to get away with it.... whoi took the pictures?
