  1. Hi, Ill take all that, but one question quickly about the surge tank - exactly where does it leak from? the welds, where the fittings meet the actual tank, the fitting where it meets another fitting? Thanks
  2. At todays exchange rate - bargain
  3. James, how exactly is she being put out of business?
  4. Even at a 3k loss it was a smart thing to do if their point was to also raise awareness and general turnover of stock. If you were to take the 3k and run something like a direct marketing campaign you would only get about 3 or 4 runs (depending on how big your target list is) and the "accepted" return on them is something like less than 2% if i remember correctly Good on them
  5. That merc looks better in silver tha black IMO

    Pistons

    Hi guys, I need some rb26/30 pistons urgently. Had some coming from OS but im being dicked around by those guys and dont have time to waste. Either: -Mahle 8.5:1 CR -CP 9.0:1 CR -Arias 9.0:1 CR Need to be 87mm, will not accept anything second hand or 87.5mm. Also im in Sydney, so they need to be here (can pickup within the hour) or able to be express mailed. Yes, im in "that" much of a hurry PM me or post up here Thanks
  8. Thats the one, the timeattack one Ill keep an eye on the progress, should be a bucketload of fun when its ready
  9. Oh BTW that porsche looks the goods - an chance of an update thread for it on SAU? Im sure the guys in the motorsport section would like to have a look
  10. Fantastic Looking forward to seeing the winner being drawn
  11. Hi guys Im after a bosch 044, ive already got one but now i have to get another for the surge tank. Max i will spend on one is $120 delivered for a perfectly working second hand one, any more and ill buy another new one Cheers
  12. Someone needs a manual conversion!
  13. Yep you show up whenever you want, then see one of the people with an SAU shirt on (wont be hard to miss, one will be holding a clipboard), so over and say hi, then its basically a case of "join the back of the line"
  14. Awesome pic
  15. lol Mate ive done everything i can, parts just arent arriving fast enough Supra's probably faster on the skidpan though Im rushing it for bathurst early december, snowy said you guys arent coming up this year though
  16. Good thinking Chris, will do Michael, come down mate!
  17. RS? Wow! Im lookin forward to seeing that in the flesh
  18. Hi guys, Ill be very straight to the point This is a GB for gearsets from P.A.R. Engineering, the gearsets can be ordered in a number of different specs. You can choose ratios, straight cut, helical cut etc P.A.R. have heaps of gearsets available for the Skyline (and other make of course) so if you've got a different make/model thats fine this group buy pricing may still apply to you, just let me know what you've got and what sort of box you want Start date: 1.11.08 End date: 1.3.09 Delivery date: Due mid to late March Supplier: Precision Automation and Robotics (P.A.R.) Engineering 19 Saggart Field Road Minto NSW, 2566 Whats on offer: Up to 10% off the price for gearsets (see below) and like normal, the more people the more discount etc When do we pay by?: You can pay and collect at the end of the GB (so everyone has the time to get the money ready) or if you need the gearset in a rush something can be worked out very easily What do we get? Here it is straight from P.A.R.; Note stock ratios for R32 GTR are; 1st: 3.214:1 2nd: 1.925:1 3rd: 1.302:1 4th: 1.000:1 5th: 0.752:1 ...so you can see they're changed slightly. You can choose between PAR's ratios, stock ratios, or your own ratios! Now for pricing this is where it gets really good! Here's a quick comparison of PAR to OSGiken (Based on current exchange rates) OS Giken OS Giken gearset with billet input shaft (helical gears only): $4700 (JustJap) R33 Series 3 upgrade parts: Approx $650 (Nissan, price varies where you go) R & R from a gearbox shop: $700 (Award Diff and Gearbox at Ryde, Sydney) Total: $6050 PAR PAR 1,2,3,4 gearset with billet input shaft (helical or straight gears, can be a mix): $3800 (Billet 5th gear is $640 if required, can be helical or straight) R & R + Upgrade parts + Oil: $1083 RRP Total: $4883 Group Buy Total: $4503 Please note: $4503 is a driveaway price, so drop off your car to PAR, come back two weeks later and drive home! So, you can have your own ratios, helical or straight cut gears with all upgrade parts and worn parts replaced for less than JUST the OS gears. Thats great value in anyone's books!!! The price, like any GB is dependant on numbers, the above pricing is based on 5 sets, so more people means more discount and i will sort out the exact price with PAR once we get over 5 sets Im doing this GB for a few reasons; -I need a stronger gearbox -Japanese based options are getting quite pricey due to the exchange rate -Im sick of hearing about how much some traders are charging for new gearboxes (Eg JustJap sell standard boxes for $3200 +delivery), you would be crazy to not spend the extra $1303 and have it fully built -Doing a reco on an old box just isnt a good way to spend money as you'll break it again without beefing up the internals (this can cost a fair amount and all you get is a stock box again!) Oh one last thing: If you dont have the money right now and want one, i suggest you put away about $230 each week between now and then So thats pretty much it guys, post up your questions and interest Cheers -Steve 1. N1GTR (R32 GTR) Full gearset/PAR ratios/Straight cut 1,2,3 helical 5th/fitting and R&R 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
