i just love the way that the government only looks at "quick fixes" banning young drivers from getting in a high performance car..(i know this isnt exactly the argument here, however) it only fixes things short term... and in most cases acts as a mild deterent.. but like i said ... vlanket bans dont fix the problem.. and the government fails to look at long term solutions hmm anyways ... as for speed... thats correct the chances of dying in a car at 100km/h is FAR FAR greater then at say 60km/h .... however ... the fact is that is doesnt take alot of speed to kill you with a sudden impact..,,.. its the manner in which this speed is being treated with.... eg ... unmaturety and lack od reguard of safety generally leads to the fatal "MIXTURE" there are so many variables on which this could be argued.. and im sure some of the people on this site could argue thier view til christmas ...although hard to achieve.. ever since grade3 when i got sick of my teachers punishing the whole class for something one student did... i have surrounded myself with the attitude that people should be treated individually.. and on that note i belive there are lots of people who should just never be allowed to drive due to thier behaviour and level of maturaty... however this is allmost as hard to categorise as knowing when someone is singing to thier radio or using handsfree lol... so i shall end my reasoning here. nb. the fact that i am a 17 yearo old on my L's with an R33 gts-t shal not enter into me being bias towards a certain opionion lol -Ruffels

thanks Damo Monster ...... Nozilla... i dunno what u mean about the rca from the head unit going to the positive on the battery lol..... however yes i have run the two wires together...... i ran them together down the centre and under the console .... so the rcas and speakers wires are together yes ... do u think i should seperate them? -Ruffels

power wires? its a 33... the battery is in the boot only thing i can think of is that my power wire for my underbodies are running along side the speaker wires ans rca's.... dont know if it makes a difference.. but its only a small power wire.. no bigger then the remote wire

hey guys i just installed my whole system... 12" and amp in boot and speakers in the car... the front speakers are amped anyways the front speakers have a whine coming from them and its really annoying.... does anyone else have this problem... or know how to fix it? cheers -Ruffels

^^^^ yeah but how often do they walk out to the carpark and look the car over.. they are usually women behinf the counter that take your money for rego and if u are transfering rego they will look at briefly and stamp the road worthy ... aswell as collection thier gay 4% stamp duty lol other then that they never look at your car at vicroads as far as i know they didnt look at mine

its all good.. i rethreaded it using the bolt in the opposite dirrection and then just hacksawed off the end of the bolt that was all screwed... problem solved

yeah im thinking that... its really annoying me lol

was just putting on a new bov.. and stupid me rushed it... i think it missed the thread so i caught it at the wrong angle.. the bolt is still fine... but the thread in the hole is all f**ked lol is there anything i can do to fix it? -Ruffels

thats correct.. its on the outside -Ruffels

haha thanks dave...

ouch.. i dont like the sound of this.... its onyl a few drips.. its not large amounts of oil.. i know its not my engine.. i had it compression tested and other factors point to the fact that the engine is in tip top condition which if what some of you guys are saying means its the turbo :S are there any tests i can do with out completely removing thye turbo to see if its on the way out? -Ruffels

^^^^ Using a small foam paint brush, spread the paint across the letters nice and evenly ^^^^ Finally all the letters have been painted ... let this dry for a further 1.5 hours before applying another coat if needed.... ^^^^ Once the paint had dried carefully get a stanley knife and carefully cut around all the letters seperating the paint from the masking tape ^^^^ Then attach back to car and marvel at how bored you got today -Ruffels

Ok well i got bored today with the old silver "SKYLIN" as the paint had worn off the "E" ^^^^ As you can see! ^^^^ Start by removing the rear garnish and using very fine sandpaper remove the existing paint (if any) ^^^^ Then once you have done that get special masking tape which doesnt leave a residue (as its a bitch to scrub off later) and carefully mask around the letters ^^^^ Keep going... its very tedious lol Finally ... all the letters have been surrounded.. and its ready to undercoat ^^^^ I chose to undercoat the letters because i didnt know how well the paint would take to the plastic surface, however in hind sight i probably wouldnt have bothered with this step ^^^^ Here we see that the undercoat is finished.. and we let it sit for approx 2 hours before the paint goes on ^^^^ So that i could get the paint spread across the letters nice and evenly i decided to add extra masking take so that i didnt get any paint on the rest of the garnish

sorry mate i know your after 32 pics.. but this is in my 33... i just had to measure up heaps til i get the exact place where it would sit flush as thr stock holes on thr brackes didnt match... and left me with the gap too.. so i had to redrill holes in the mounting bracket.... this is how it turned out -Ruffels sorry bout the shitty picture

hey guys every week or so i pop the bonnet just to check on shit etc.. anyways lately ive been noticing that there is quite a substancial amaount of oil on the blled valve... just wondering if this is normal? lol sorry if this is a blatently obvious quesion or what not.. im new to the skyline game -Ruffels

nah.. i dont live in the west... i live in the northeastern suburbs -Ruffels oh yeah.. thanks to Allblitz (hus) for the stealth wing.. very happy -Ruffels

standard afm will give up around 210rear wheel kw mark im led to belive could be wrong -Ruffels

hi everyone well i cut and polished my car the other day... and before anyone had a chance to let me know i accedentally went over my rubber winscreen and rearwindow rubber seals with the rotary polisher and now the sals have all dried out and gone white and feel quite ruff just wondering if there is some sort of product i can put on them to rejuvinate them and make then nice and black again cos the stand out heaps and look crap all white Cheers -Ruffels

well as a guide i got some cheap stuff done ... front bar and grile sanded , refibreglassed and resprayed... sideskirt refibreglassed as it was cracked to the absolute shit, then resprayed and then stealthwing (which was just raw fibregalss) preped, primed, fitted and painted all for $700 -Ruffels

i got bleeder valve and pod only on my 33 and i got 151 @ the wheels so i dont know what your doing wrong?

$20 postage to melbourne i allready aksed c'mon people.. my cars at risk of blowing up ... the faster people get a sealed battery.. the faster i can stop my car form being at risk lol -Ruffels

^^ that is indeed correct... and aslong as you are 17 years old.. you may register any car you like... providing that it is road registerable -Ruffels

i think you are talking about R33's i can register a ferrari if i really want... its not illegal to own and register one... hell you can even inssure one.... how ever you aren't allowed to drive them. simple as that werd

i had a compression test done before i bought the car ... and i got 5% .. its a 93' S1 33 ... done 114,000km's had been running 10psi for 4 years in australia.. and possibly more in japan.. stock apart from bleeder and i got 151.3kw i was told this was fairly good also good to know that the theory that rb's are very hearty is true -Ruffels

haha yeah ... i wasnt a fan of the gtr badge... i bought the car with it on... and never removed it because the grille was shit all where the gtr badge was... but last week had the front bar, sideskirts, and grille refibreglassed and repainted.. so i removed it also the Stealth wing is new -Ruffels
