r32 window strip rain protectors
WazR32GTSt replied to WazR32GTSt's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
havn't been on the net for a while but strips are still for sale they are not black, they are a golden see-through colour but you can spray them or whatever if you want. they are in good condition for a strip that has been exposed to the elements for 10 years! anyone still interested? -
i dunno what i'm writing i've just come back from hitting the bottle! good'ol thurs nite... ignore my message i think i meant the bearing loose and squeaking. dad just changed the bearing on his 'vette and his wheel was squeaking just like described. ignore the brake bit.

2 point is just the immobilizer which is one component of the alarm. you may even be able to upgrade that part of it...i dunno. jb hi fi is a bit more expensive than hi-fi and i don't think they stock many cheaper items - only those over 500 or those that are that sh1t that you don't want it. -

well its actually made by code which is a v.good brand but its their second brand that they make so its the same electronices apparently but different gizmo's (ie doesn't have the fancy sh1t that code stuff has). This one actually gives a warning beep if you lift the handle or hit the car - it has a shock sensor and you can get them to make it as sensitive as you want. i made it so that if i'm parked and someone with a 5" exhaust hoons part the alarm doesn't go off, but if there is soneone who hits the car with a trolley or tries to key the car then it goez bezzerk! sufficient for a student who is lacking $$$ and needs something. if you have hi-fi supermarket up there in brizzie then check them out and wait for a sale (i did - got $150 off inc installation!). i don't think the car needs to turn into a robot and rape the would-be robber just because they were 5m away and had an indecent thought about stealing the car. there's got to be a limit. -

i paid 300 fitted from hi-f supermarket its a zylux (same as code apparently but no name attached) it has sound sensor so goes off it you hit/break the windows. alarm attached to boot/bonnet/doors has back-up battery so if you etach the car battery then it will go off and you need the key to turn it off. also remote central attached to that. that was suffiient for me, but i'm not too paranoid as i don't have $2k work of goodies inside. if i get broken into i will break the arms and legs of everyone within a 1km radius - that's my fix for any problems! -

tint is for looks mate...i was trying to say don't worry about performance mode just yet. get your car smelling like a shag (bacause you just shagged some nice cuttie in it!) and then later on go faster. the chicks don't care how fast it goes. on the alarm subject...i dunno mine is only 2-point immobilizer so i can't really talk about 7-point! -
maybe wheel bearing rubbing against the brake

you say you are brand new at this whole car thing, so you havn't even had a chance to enjoy the skyline for what its worth! they made a fantastic car so have some fun in it - get your seciurity and maybe tinted windows and a nice set of wheels if you like. wait till you think you can handle boosting in the wet and can get yourself out of many situations which you will experience in a fast car...then think about doing mods. a 12sec car right now will be your demise... -
mine doesn't i don't think. u sure its not running rich? maybe an O2 sensor is gone or something fuel related and you can't tell
-
hey i've got the same problem it goes away when the car is warm! its the timing, hey? my dad rekons he checked the timing and it was ok...hmmmm i dunno. does the car feel faster now that the timing was checked? also is th problem definately fixed for good?
-
does ANYONE still have the stock airbox???
-
power means nothing man, its all about how you transfer that power into a quick road car - ask rev210 all about it
-
mre, don't u find that after about 6500 rpm the power tends to ease off a bit? i back off the accelerator at about 6000rpm and so it usually reacts by 6500rpm and changes then i floor it again...seems to keep the car in optimum torque range but i think this causes you to lose boost. only really works for 1st -> 2nd gear but just thought someone else may have used this approach...

vendetta...that signature would have to be one of the most rediculous things i have read on a car site. makes you look like like an idiot before people even get a chance to judge you... on the topic of the thread, it could be the AFM or even the air filter if it is dirty and not enough air getting through. Also maybe injectors dirty - run some injector cleaner through before pulling things apart in case its something small. try fiddling with the throttle polition sensor (there's a thread on it) as well as this could be the problem.

a v6 commy would kill an NA r32 as the commy's don't go too bad seriously. but there would be no point getting a NA skyline if you are thinking of turboing it later on just save the hassle and go for the turo now. from my experience there is not that much a difference between the v6 and v8 commies of that era in terms of 0-100 they both do about the same coz the v8's weigh heaps more and are only like 180kw.

ma70 turbo supras came with a front-mount intercooler as standard didn't they? what do you mean it's a water cooler?
-
question: when going WOT with an auto, is it best to keep your foot held to the floor and let the car change gears after going to 7300rpm, or would times be better easing your foot off so that it changes at about 6500rpm in the ideal range? this would induce a loss of boost, but the power seems to "trail off" if you just plant your foot and hold on. anyone drive an auto and know how best to approach it?
-
which supra? ma70/jza80?

thought i'd start this seeing the CAI thread that is sticky is more about partitioning a pod than about stock airboxes. I have sepnt hours trying to find where the piping going into the stock airbox comes from. I decided that it opens up to under the headlight where there is minimal airflow. i tried to take the headlight out to see more but failed miserably -> 2 hours of taking out rediculous bolts and then pulling the bloody thing till it didn't come off and i didn't want to break it! Then i tried to cut a hole into the pipe going into the airbox but couldn't get one bigenough to do anything so i gave up again (there's a trend here about giving up i know). has anyone tried anything with the stock airbox still on (r32 here), like maybe removing the pipe going into the airbox (how?) so that there is just a hole directly from under the headlight into the airbox. i need fresh air! Waz...

but every man and thier dog has an r33 now-a-days... good 'ol r32's!! i think kaige is looking at a cheaper NA car rather than a $50k honda s2000 or otherwise the price of insurance would not be an issue...
-
why don't you look at a non-turbo suprs (93+) as these are as quick as a gtst and still are missing any form of forced induction (easier for insurance) ...not a bad car if you ask me. looks the goods too.

is that what you did to fix your problem, supafly?

rw-tension?? what does that mean?
