ROFL... Im pretty new here myself but reading the post and replies made me laugh... Hey! Maybe i should go get a set of Ford rims for my Commodore!!! Should be sweet as!!! Fully sick uleh!

OMG....thats the self distruct button!!!! LoL LoL @ Controlling "half or full triangles. Its your choice"

A change in diff ratio would change the RPM on the freeway. Although if you do that everything else will be affected as a result. eg: Take off would be a lil slower...

Ok so far i know there's SEI Automotive 1-5 Brighton Rd Dandenong (Looking at maybe an R33 from here) I think i've seen one on Bell St Preston but not sure of the name... Anyone else know of any around the Melbourne area???

Yes there is such thing...i know they use em on those automatic sliding gates you see outside factories etc... Not sure if it work for ur application though...

Ok im not fluent with Skylines but cars in general i know quite a bit so the things you should be doing first... (Try pinpoint the leak) ***Check all your hoses and tighten or renew accordingly. ***Flush radiator. -Park the car on a slight hill (driveway) so the nose is higher. -Disconnect top and bottom hoses. -Run the garden hose through the bottom radiator hose and turn it on. Now run the car on idle. -This should flush the system of bad water. -Replace all hoses and fill radiator with coolant. -With the cap off run the car at idle again. The water level should drop slightly; top up with water. -Let the car run/idle for approx 15/20 min. Any air bubbles should rise and come out the radiator cap.(Reason you park on a hill)...(Not sure if the skylines have bleeder. If so it'll be ontop/near the thermostat) -When you are satisfied there are no more air bubbles close it up. -Drive the car and recheck water levels. If this has not remidied the situation even if u've pinpointed the leaky hose and changed then you would most likely need to change ur water pump. I suggest you take it to a mechanic for that job. --------- In regards to the thermostat being 'stcuk open' no this wont overheat ur car. The thermostat opens up as it reaches its desired temp hence letting fluid pass through the radiator. When they become lax they simply stay open. The resulting effect is a car that wont warm up as quick in the mornings...

Howdy, I was wondering if it was possible to have a Log In option on the home page rather than having to click the "Log In" button...wait...wait...Enter my details....click "Log In"...wait...wait...then im in! LoLs Just a suggestion...

Hrrrmmm...Jeeze i've already learnt heaps just in this thread alone! I've already read the thread on differences in S1 & S2...did my head in! LoL Seems there are mixed reactions when it comes to SEI Automotive...Are there any other places around melb to look at? (Apart from Trading Post & Private etc...)

Thanx for the feedback guys....constructive critisism is always good! Yeah i'd rather an automatic as im sick of a manual...already got two other cars. The dealer this is from is SEI Motors (South Eastern Importers) Melbourne...Yeah i wasnt too sure on the Km's either as it does seem a bit low. thommo, Are you from CCC??? Im VR_STEALTH...
