  1. Some points I agree with, some I don't. As mentioned, you don't know that every E10 is 95RON (Mobil/7Eleven list them as 94), so treat them as 91RON ("up to 10% Ethanol"). I wouldn't risk running an engine that's designed to run on 96RON on anything less than 96RON, but hey, your money and car. I sure as hell won't be buying your vehicles off you if you consistently run E10 in a standard Skyline. But like a lot of people, saving money is the key here. So choice is a good thing really. In NSW the government tried to get rid of 91RON and then later changed their minds. I don't run E10 on any cars I fill up. Either put up with putting 98RON or sell your car and buy a little commuter car designed to take E10 so you can save even more money! Or you can fill up on cheap days where the price of 98RON drops 10-20c (it's usually 15-20c more expensive than E10).
  2. fatz reckoned the same, so it didn't take much convincing to get it off his hands But they are Jizmo's, looks good on almost any car . Original white colour as well, I'll be keeping hold of them for a long while.
  3. Totally worth it for the sound though.
  4. Get a quote from jesse streeter for a Nismo one.
  5. Saw a few people checking out my car on Sunday. Even a couple of photos were taken! Shame the body is rough
  6. R31 Skyline. Plenty of power for a new driver and cheap. It's still a Skyline. Win win.
  7. Okay the pricing was off by $1k, but something like this: http://www.aaq.net.au/shop/detail/autolift-167212e/ http://garageworkshop.com.au/car-hoists/2-post-car-hoists/dmj-6.html?gclid=CKLSjeeZw7wCFVdxvAodGjEA_Q
  8. Yep
  9. Nice pictures! I was supposed to bring the DSLR but my dad used it the night before, couldn't find it in the morning.
  10. It's been a while, a friend showed them to me. The price may be drastically different, but I remember them being more than $2,000.
  11. To import, ask jessestreeter, or rhdjapan or importmonster. Or, you can pick up a cheapie from ebay. Works fine, but you need to replace the bottom bush with a factory one.
  12. No surprises there, who ever you are NY911.
  13. Penrite or Nulon (because they're Aussie)
  14. Some casualties Driver of the white Lambo He skipped a few too many leg days A Lotus garage drew a crowd while changing a gearbox I think Team Nismo packing up way too early Ooo a pit stop. Pretty cool watching it from the other side. It was quite remarkable how close you can get to these awesome machines A Porsche rocking an esky haha Ferrari engine, yum 300mm wide slicks stretched on. I saw 325 wide in a Porsche pit. Makes my 265 wide tyres seem like snow tyres Came out of a Porsche, They got the car back out I believe. The deceased R35 and the Ferrari that caused the demise. A tad awkward being garaged next to each other haha. At least it was a racing accident and not from dodgy driving. Some Kelly bloke walked into my photo, sheesh This Ginetta sounded pretty rad and looked like a small Corvette from the back. Shame it retired. The well deserved winners.
  15. Okay, time for some crappy phone pictures Mmmm fat slicks The Michelins came pre-stretched Nismo team were going well What a great day, perfect weather to test the endurance of the cars Then it happened This Datto was pretty cool Running R32 brakes Respects to the King Some rad as hell cars. Not everyday you get to see one McLaren, let alone 5! I do love engineering a lot Some fine BMWs These would make cool little dailies The two R35s rocked but a bit later in the morning. Great stuff to see. A bunch of spectators had a good perv. Sun was blazing, was approaching 40°C in the afternoon.
  16. 18x10 +20 265/35/18 Guards lipped and a bit of camber (-2° front -1.5° rear, roughly)
  17. I want a hoist Anyone has experience with those portable ones you can roll around? I think I saw some for roughly $2.5k-3k
  18. Sorry for disappearing, I was walking with you guys, stopped to watch the race on screen, turned around and you were gone! Lol.
  19. Nice!
  20. Anyone bought from there? How's the shipping?
  21. My car's engine is standard and the AFMs are playing up a bit. New AFMs + Nistune = 10L/100km mixed (that's the goal anyway).
  22. Well my GT-R just did 9L/100km Sydney to Bathurst return on full tank (29L/320km).
