  1. If you can find out prices i'd be interested in a set for 32gtr. 260deg 9.15mm lift. Cheers. Mick
  2. XTC in coburg can retune 32 GTR computer....cant remember the exact address though.
  3. I use a 10% ethonol mix in my lod corral, though i cant remember the name of the servo that sells it. Works a treat for me, even if it is in my old car, get better fuel economy per tank also. Correct me if im wrong, but ethonol has a high oxygen content, so when added to your fuel it increases the oxygen in your fuel...thats how they get the extra couple of RON i think. Like xRHETTx said, got good reviews in HPI provided you re-tuned your computer to compensate for it running pretty lean. Will definately try it out once the gtr's back on the road. By the looks ok Scathing's quote, its should be available on tuesday, has anyone tried it yet?? Cheers.
  4. Hmmm, does anyone know if this can be mated up to my GTR?? Can you hook the awd gear up to the 3ltr block?? And would i need to mess around with different engine mounts, etc?? Cheers, Mick.
  5. Bass Junky - Yeah, heard you/fuel topic this morning on my way to work. What a f**kwit the guy after you was...I was gunna call up after him and say he didn't know what he was talking about..
  6. Yeah, I'll give PRO-TEK a free plug also. Cars currently there getting Autronic and new turbos put in. Well priced and good to deal with. Good Luck.
  7. Hey all, Its time to upgrade my cooler to something that will flow a little better. So come on people's, let me know what you've got to sell. Will pay good money for the right unit. Cheers, Mick
  8. Hey mate. Whats the price on the complete set and control unit??

    Insurance

    Well, im one of those people that fit into the "dont have any" category. Got it on my little (stock) corolla. Cost me $1800 full comp with Just cars. f**k i hate having a bad driving record, it really pushes up your insurance, guess the loss of licence for speeding really doesn't help my case. Reason the skyline doesn't have any is because its been off the road for the last (nearly) 6 months. Will be getting some once its back on the road.
  10. That shit cracks me up...They seem to be able to drive pretty much anything they want over there as long as it goes..
  11. Im originally from Woodend, bout an hour between Melb and Bendigo...Guess you could call that country, though not as country as Moe.
  12. Go for a cruise along the great ocean road. A must do in summer. Couple of nice spots to stop and have a feed (lorne, apollo bay). Good twisties, only its shit when you get stuck behind some old couple from NSW. Depends what your into... Casino for a night on the booze, then maybe the strippers...gotta make a little stop in king st when your down. ha I'll come up with a few more later.
  13. Just a free plug... Picked mine up last night....and already saved me a fine from an undercover cop on the way to work this morning. Good little unit. Think i'll get my money back in no time. Cheers.
  14. Come on guys....Any help would be apreciated.
  15. Very Impressed!!! I think it looks stunning. I just feel that its sad that they dont make a limited edition run of cars like this..
  16. My GTR's my hobby i guess you could say (prob like most of the people on this forum). So thats what i spend my money on. Some people are collectors, some people are sports fanatics and some people are car nuts. Every1 has something that they spend there cash on, and i dont mind blowing my hard earned on my car...why...cause i enjoy it. But, when you go to sell it (like im ever gunna do that) then it becomes a huge waste of money. You've only gotta look at the fact that you can pour thousands into a GTR (any car in fact) and get diddly squat back when you sell it. Im sure there are a few people out there that could have bought a small/medium house with the cash they've spent modifying their ride. Just my 2c.
  17. Hey, Just looking options on what sort of alarm to get once i get my car back. Did a search, heaps of results, but nothing that really helped me out. So....im after something from the top end of the market/maybe one of the tracking companies. Anyone had/use a tracking company or got a top quality alarm that they could share there opinon on. Also, what brands to avoid?? Cheers, Obes.
  18. Hey mate. Sent you a PM. Interested in the fuel kit, if its still for sale. Im from Melb, so wouldn't mind coming to have a look at it.
  19. Well guys, guess im off to the local hardware store to pick me up a couple of picks....Just incase someone steals MY carpark... HA.
  20. Correct me if im wrong, but i thought that the correct ethonol/petrol mix could give you a little more power if tuned correctly??
  21. I reckon about approx 400k's is pretty standard for my GTR, and that'd be with a mix of highway and city driving...plus a little squirt here and there.
  22. Mrr330 - When i got my GTR tuned, it pulled 235.5kw at all 4 with just exhaust, pods, and some more boost...1.15 bar to be honest. and 220kw on 1 bar. But like flipmo said, dont run more then 1 bar, as THEY do blow up..just like one of mine did. (although i was told that they had steel wheels in them when i bought it) Depends on what condition the engine is in to.
  23. Are 12's the new 13's??? I reckon it depends if the cars running 12's with slicks or not. On street tyres i think 12's are quick for a street car, definately if its RWD. About 3 years ago i had a VL that ran 13's and all my mates thought that was pretty quick...not anymore. Now there seems to be quite a few cars that run 12's, even high 11's when you go to the drags. With the times that (new) performance standard cars are running nowadays i dont think it'll be to far down the track that 11's will become the norm...
