  1. Joe you joined over two years ago dude - you should know to start with a search. And it's hydraulic not hydrolic Power steering reservoir = power steering fluid Boot reservoir = ATTESSA reservoir = ATF unrelated fluids. The others you'll have to check for yourself dude
  2. Ed I have a set in Blaxland dude. If you are coming through feel free to pickup and you could show me how to test those speakers we were talking about!
  3. I think we should ban all movies that have a car chase scene. And any that have a car speeding. Or leaving their car and not locking it. Then the roads would be safe again... stupid kneejerk reactions
  4. Nope. East Bear retail covers for your sedan lights so they look like coupe lights. I think Powerplay Imports in Sydney could sort out a pair of covers for you. That said, a lot of sedan guys love the different look.
  5. Guys you should always be wary of who knows where your car lives. Does the CD installer REALLY need to know your address or could he just have your mobile number...? If you have time, have a look through http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=83129
  6. I agree. I would have thought if he had half a brain he'd make the price cheap yet plausible. Maybe $45k or something like that. You wouldn't see a roadworthy R32 GTR for $10k. Does this guy know how to convert currency or what? I wonder if I could sell him an Australian bull as part payment.
  7. I recently read that Sydney Water wastes 145 (yes one hundred and forty five) Olympic swimming pool-equivalents of water each day due to leaking pipes. That is actually more than Sydney consumes for the same period.
  8. CC you should PM predator. Gordon recently converted his car from auto -> manual and had minor issues with his reverse light. It was a different problem but he most likely went through all the wiring related to the light. FWIW
  9. The GTS-t Type M has different brakes to the regular GTS-t and the GTS, hence different pads. It depends on whether your car has the larger Type M brake calipers dude. If it does, they will not fit. And as a general note, as far as imports go, assume retailers (Repco/Supercheap/Bursons/etc.) have no idea until proven otherwise. I love the stores but I always go armed with part numbers.
  10. My wife loves her horses and I make jokes all the time about resprays and having them lowered If she'd just go to semi-slick horseshoes she'd be so much faster around the track.
  11. Roy would you mind posting price and pictures once you've had that done please? I'm sure (at least!) half the R32 guys would be interested in how you went.
  12. If your alarm is a Brant then yes they did but they have been purchased by a group of employees and will honour warranties on alarms purchased prior to May 05 (or thereabouts). Brant are now conducting normal trade. More detail (and more accurate! ) is on their website.
  13. Nice work on the masking. It's one of those 'measure twice, cut once' things Looks good Marcus
  14. Thanks dude. I was hoping my AAC was incorrect and it'd explain my 1200rpm idle. Cheers
  15. Remember kids: stay in school and say no to chrome.
  16. Could you please let me know what your AAC response was like? Mine sits at a continual 2% and the TPS at 0.41V Were your results similar? Thanks! Mark
  17. Far out Ed, I can't believe I never made the connection! I wonder which badass sub-culture will be the next Point Break remake? Maybe underground skateboard clubs.
  18. Ah, yeah. Subject matter experts on ADRs...
  19. It was interesting to read "SKYLINE" across the back of the car. I thought Nissan was pushing it as a separate model - the Nissan GT-R?
  20. Hi Sidd. The 'grain of wheat' bulbs are the same in R32 and R33. The link Craved posted would be great for replacing with 12V bulbs. I tried Jaycar unsuccessfully - didn't realise DSE had what I was after in 12V with wires only. If you are interested in the LED route, this post and onwards has bits and pieces on how to do it. Very simple and effective. If your dash dimmer also dims the climate control, I recommend 3000mcd LEDs, otherwise 1000mcd with the 500mW resistor. As the bulbs are the same between Skyline models the LEDs will be substitutes also. The steps and a few reference pics are in the thread/post below. I hope it helps Mark http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...dpost&p=2145079
  21. Are you R33 guys sure they are factory and not fitted as part of R33 compliance?
  22. Man I feel like an ass. I was standing in the shower a few mins ago and realised I'd posted that the 'speedo cable' going to the 'tacho' may cause hassles. Far out. Cheers BB. You beat me to it.
  23. G'day Curt. Could the tacho be due to a different speedo cable from RB20 gearbox to RB26 gearbox? Could the 4 lights be due to your different ECU? Not that this post is terribly helpful, but it may help solicit a response from SAUers smarter than I am
  24. I agree (on both counts!). For comparison, JustJap retail new GTR indicators at $195 each.
