    Otherwise known as an Xtreme 9-puck, ceramic, Xtra H/D
  2. "Should" and "Does" are two totally different things, unless you are offering a money back guarantee. On a std engine, you would need more than 17psi to make 280rwkw.Don't mean to discredit your sale, as it has been proven to be a good turbo, just don't like reading figures that have been pulled out of the air. Good luck

    Nothing special about flywheels. - If you want to maintain the friendliest clutch feel stick with the standard flywheel. - If you don't care if the feel is slightly more tricky/bitey, but has a little better engine response go for a light-weight flywheel.
  4. Hi Ian, I have a rb25 hi-flow with a VG30 upgrade. Mine is up for sale ($1100), but i would not sell it to you as these turbos are not that responsive and when approaching boost, comes on hard [ie: A lot of fun, NOT good for a family car]. Experienced track drivers have looped/spun my car due to it's boosting characteristics. I am telling you this to state that any/all hi-flows are not the best option, that is why i am replacing mine with a HKS GT-RS. Refer to attached pic. Pete has the same turbo, in his R34 GTT, with the best tunning, but still acts in a similar manner. Silva33 has a HKS 2535 that would be best suited for your needs, he also lives in Melbourne and has just posted it for sale @ $1500 (with HKS Actuator) or $1300 (with std rb25 Actuator). This is a great turbo, as the power is progressive, thus being safer. The price is honestly awesome too, if he sold this 1 month earlier i would have saved myself $1400 . Silva33's Turbo: click here
  5. My rims were powder-coated in Airport West, for about $120 for all 4, but i knew the guy through my mechanic. Either way, the painter has left the business and the business has moved to another shop somewhere near by, but am yet to find where. Apart from a good clean and a light sand, no prep work was required for my rims. $220 is a great price.

    The new Xtreme distributor is Race Brakes, North Melbourne. You will be better off to order the clutch through them. I am sure there is nothing different apart from the price. Send a PM to Chris (Scotsman) as he used the same clutch for his GTR, but bought it direct.

    These mini cars look absolutely awesome, thanks again Age!! I shrunk it and tried to use it as my avartar, but the stupid computer keeps uploading the current pic. I even deleted this existing avatar, then attepted to upload the new one, but this same pic appears . New avatar size is 120x96pixels @ 17kb, so i don't know why it is not working
  8. Sounds like she got around
  9. If it falls through let me know, i have no problem with driving to Echuca or surrounding area.
  10. Thanks Zero, Unfortunately they look like they may not clear the GTR brembos, as the GTR rotors are 35mm larger than the GTT, and the Brembo calipers are also chunkier. Thanks again and good luck with the sale Alan
  11. Haven't been in the office today, but i got a call that a package has arrived addressed to me, i assume it is the gear knob. Thanks for all your trouble and taking the time to sort it all out!
  12. Do you have these in your possesion? If so, is it too hard to fit one front and one rear wheel to the same side of the car and take a few more pics. The pics above don't mean shit, as the size, stud pattern, offset, etc are all different. We know what they look like just want to see them on a Skyline. If you want to make the sale, make the effort .
  13. Just took my car to the mechanic today, wont be ready for at least 2 weeks
  14. Top stuff Joel!! May talk to you some more about doing a photo shoot. They are the best pics of my car to date!! Can you also PM me a price to get the full res. pics of my car? You didn't get any of me smoking my tyres after a spin out . At the end of the day everyone was smokin' them up in my car , need new rears again now .
  15. Few questions? - Are the rims still available? - Are you willing to send to Melbourne? - Are you able to test fit a front rim on a 33/34 GTR with standard brakes? I have 33 GTR Brembos on my Gts-t, so I need to make sure they clear the callipers without the need for spacers. - Are the rims "light weight"? - Will these fit a Gts-t with sticking out the guards? - The above mentioned "imperfection on one of the rear wheels". How bad is it? Does it require repair? I only intend to use these as "track wheels" so i not after "perfect" rims, as long as they are safe to use, do not require repair and spin true. Alan
  16. Few questions? - Are the rims still available? - Are you willing to send to Melbourne? (i know you stated pick-up only, but these have been for sale since Nov '05 and thought you may make the effort to post) - Are you able to test fit a front rim on a 33/34 GTR with standard brakes? I have 33 GTR Brembos on my Gts-t, so I need to make sure they clear the callipers without the need for spacers. Alan
  17. Few questions? - Are the rims still available? - Are you willing to send to Melbourne? - Are you able to test fit the front rim on a 33/34 GTR with standard brakes? I have 33 GTR Brembos on my Gts-t, so i need to make sure they clear the calipers without the need for spacers. - Can you show/send a few more pics of these wheels on your car? Especially interested to see if the rears are sticking out the gaurds. Thanks Alan
  18. Few questions? - Are the Nismo 17" rims still available? - Are you willing to send to Melbourne? - Are you able to test fit a Nismo 17" front rim on a 33/34 GTR with standard brakes? I have 33 GTR Brembos on my Gts-t, so i need to make sure they clear the calipers without the need for spacers. - Are the Nismo 17" wheel "light weight"? - Can you show/send a few more pics of these wheels on your car? Especially interested to see if the rears are sticking out the gaurds, so pics from the front, rear and above the arch would help alot. Alan

    I think 335mm P-zeros would be pretty grippy But my comment was based on both Tom's and Jarrod's results from the last DECA and this DECA. Doing 360deg dougies dosn't help with times
