That stream is terrible.

The name is from the colour of the oil

DIfferent varients of the Garrett turbo http://homepage.ntlworld.com/tbroom/Turbos.htm Googling helps.

No indication OP is tracking his car.

Try Redline lightweight shockproof a.k.a. smurf's blood.

I don't think my controller skills will get me into the top 45.

Start by checking all fuses and the links at the positive battery terminal.

Change the headlights switch (remove surround, unscrew switch, screw in replacement switch, plug in and test). If you want to take things a bit further (you should always upgrade ), wire up some relays for your headlights. I'm glad you found a broad minded R32. Some tend to be narrow minded and dicks. My R32 is trying to kill me via it's HICAS, pretty sure it doesn't like curries .

How about this? I changed the oil on my GT-R on the weekend. Out came 5L of 10,000km old Penrite Racing 10, in went 5.5L of Premium 5. It shut the head up on cold start (few seconds of valve train noise).

Dude, you're an engineer, nitpicking and talking about specifics and higher level driving! Average user, roadholding tends to be handling.

That's what I was aiming at. Take a corner @ 60 km/h on shit tyres = poor handling. Take the same corner at the same speed on stickier tyres = better handling. But you still need to look at the other aspects. On the flip side, you can have an awesome suspension etc. and have crap tyres, and still get poor grip. But it depends on what you want from your car though (seeing it's a GT-R, I would say, the higher the grip level, the better). To me, it sounds like the OP's suspension is too stiff and low, with standard-style wheel alignment settings/stuffed up alignment. What wheels do you run Luke?

You just pretty much ended this thread.

That Altezza t-boned that van pretty well. Successfully "tuned" for fail.

JustJap say they're genuine ducts and bumper.

You can always fire up Gran Turismo 6

I'm after a MoTeC exhaust and stronger manifold welds.

AFMs gone?

Maroon R32 GT-R with gold Advan RG wheels and gandor mirrors in Ultimo carpark next to ABC. Nice.

It seems like OP wants to spend a couple hundred dollars on bracing, not a few thousand.

I would look at replacing the tyres first. Think Hankook R-S3 if it's not a daily. Tyres are the only thing connecting you to the ground, so they have a big impact on handling.

If you get a highish maintenance car, you'll spend more time working and less time studying, not what you want. Unless you're rich/have cashed up parents giving you money, you'll have a bad time. If you really want a sports car, there are plenty of N/A options out there, aus delivered ones with lower insurance premiums.

Have you tried sourcing them from your local Nissan dealership? Look on RHDJapan, Amayama. You can simply cut your existing bumper (assuming you have a standard, good condition one) to fit the vents, so you don't have to buy a whole bumper. Note that you can get the vents in factory colours as well.

This thread made me buy an R9 270. Bit of an upgrade from the HD5770.

Hahaha four? Top work.
