$100 + pickup from wherever you are? you can keep the game, faceplate and memory card.

actually your cheapest possible way to get more noise out of your induction would be to remove the factory resonator that connects to your airbox.

hehe that's what you get for askin technical questions on a sunday. your best bet is to get a metal pipe to go between your turbo and your AFM (otherwise known as a dose pipe around thomastown). it'll amplify the volume of the air induction and any pressure variations (flutter etc) that your system will have. i've got a twin plate clutch, which lets the world know when I'm changing gears... usually followed by them looking at my car as if something fell off.

the SAU wiki got broked during the server upgrade I think... we've been maintaining that wiki for a while... will ahve to get onto PranK to get that back up.

have one of your mates sit in the passenger seat and give him one of these Have him go "zu-tu-tu-tu-tu" every time you change gear.

you are "sitting" in these seats right? that's a lot of damage.

ebay? let the people decide how much its worth. i don't get people who sell numberplates for more than they're worth either... but hey, if there wasn't an idiot somewhere willing to buy em, no one would sell em.

hahaha vic.... my R34 GTR is matte black... oh yeah... giggity giggity. All my cars are matte black... f**k TCS n all that crap is shit... you can't corner properly while on boost and give it a squeeze of nitrous without the TCS going "danger to manifold and directing you into the nearest wall. what do you use the clutch in teh drags for? launches? I've only ever used the clutch for drift to clutch kick the car. I'm still using a civic for drag, s15 for drift, r34 for grip and a 350z for high speed shit. I should probably sell the civic and get a 180sx for drags... keep it in the family. Ryan Cooper is a fag.

yeah i noticed every time i put mismatched wheels front n back on my GTS4, my mates IS300 gets all retarded. its ATTESA people. two T's, one S, no L's!

just use bumper black on it. looks tough.

just the fan button (press repeatedly to control the speed)... if you press anything else it goes back to climate control mode and pwn's your ass.

the problem that the R32 owners in canada face is that their headlights need to be DOT approved to register the car (sorta like our ADR's that our cars are complied to meet)... its an american standard, and as the R32 was never sold in the US it doesn't have that marking on the headlight. Also the angle of the light is slanted so that it doesn't glare onto oncoming drivers on the right... but in canada the oncoming drivers are on the left... again... sucks to be attached to the US. so unfortunately you HAVE to change your headlights to something DOT approved like ghey honda lights, or S14 240SX headlights or something like that if you wanna keep your car legal. There's a company now that makes Garage Infini style lights over there, which kinda solves the problem. At least the R33's ahve plastic headlights, so changing em to comply with DOT regs will be easy as.

ahhh lol makes sense.

to disable climate control on the R32 is easy. you hold down the hot or cold button until it maxes out (ie.. 18 or 32) then it'll hit FC (forced cold or f**kin cold, whichever you prefer) or FH (forced heat or f**kin hot). Then you can use the fan button to vary the speed of the fan as it auto defaults to full fan speed too. if you just want the fan to go on and not engage the climate control, then switch it off (nothing on the screen) then press the fan button. It'll turn just the fan on and blow whatever's outside thru or cycle whatever's inside. you'll also notice that if you don't turn anything on, a steady stream of air trickles through. if you want to turn it off, then while its off, just press the recirculate button, and there'll be no air movement at all thru the system. hope that helps... if your climate control isn't workin properly then its most likely that flap... sometimes its easy to fix yourself if its just jammed... I might post a DIY on how to lubricate/clean the lever assembly. I gotta clean my aircon filter this weekend.

lol chameleon is so 1998 sydney style. unless of couse its Midnight Purple 3... which is porn. MP1 & 2 were just straight pearls.

or an ebay account http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...em=320180032411

demo? full version came out a couple of days ago.

i used to be pretty active in the NA section when i had a gts and an ae86, now that i've sold both I don't really come in here to clean stuff up. I rection Eug could be a good candidate.

your postman delivers on a saturday?

a hollow tube tapered to a narrow inlet with no filtration whatsoever will give yout he loudest noise. you have an N/A, you won't get any noticeable induction noise unless you use a shithouse pod that has horrible gaps in it that makes a noise as air goes thru it.

i'm sure shcumaker chucked a hissy fit too when ferrari told him he had to use flappy paddles on his "auto" F1 car. harden the f**k up.

here's a couple of examples of where a stretched tyre is practical: From the US: From Adelaide: Here's an example of a "drift style" car with a 4wd ride height remember kids, stretched tyre and gap between wheel and car or 4WD style ride height = punch in the c**t. Do it properly or don't do it at all.

I've heard of bosozoku, yankee and highway racer style applied to them, maybe zokusha is slang for bosozoku or something. They're just a group of enthusiasts who style 1970's and 1980's cars kinda in the theme of the then race cars, and then some. They're pretty much the Torana and Gemini drivers of Japan. Anyways, they've been around a lot longer than the drifters... and the reason they stretch tyres is: 1. its a lot cheaper to stretch a narrow tyre onto a wider rim, than buying a wider tyre. 2. its part of the "look"... so even though they may own a $50,000 KPGC10, they'll still stretch the tyre because its part of the tradition now. 3. They don't give a rats ass about performance. Its the stigma they care about. Now fast forward to Australian "drift look" cars. I use this term because half the muppets running around these days with BN Sports kits and vertex kits and "omg dishhhh" wheels with stretched tyres, would get their panties all up in a bunch when you ask them to drift their car for real. I mean... who'd want to gutter bash their $3000 Professor SP1's right? And no fishies down a wide road or getting your arse end out around a curb in your neighbourhood doesn't cut the mustard either. So onto the real reason for stretching your tyres if you are a drifter: 1. 99% of real drifters aren't sponsored, are poor and can barely afford to keep their cars on the road. Wide tyres are out of the question. Find tyres that your local tyre shop or service centre is throwing away (out the back, ask for em) and make them fit the wheel. 2. You car is stupid low to the ground, your guards are flared and your wheels are just the right offset that they sit flush with your guards, or just slightly out. If you were to run the right sized tyre for your wheels then you'd scrape the f**k out of them with your guard when you corner or when there's weight in your car. So you stretch the tyre, and the angle of the sidewall corresponds or tucks nicely with the flaring of the guard. If you find a so called drifter that's running wide wheels, with stretched tyres and you can fit more than one finger between the top of his tyre and his guard, then go over to him and punch him in the c**t and tell him to either fit better tyres or lower his car. Seriously... I'm sick and tired of looking at 4WD height drift style cars and posers running around with "omg sickkk dishh" wheels and $4000 paintjobs on their vertex/uras copy kits claiming to be drift superstars.

i'm sorry... that looks ghetto. it doesn't even fill the hole properly. you should get an eyelid and cover that nasty gap... then it'll OK i guess. still doesn't curve the same as the indicator etc. we don't have to worry bout DOT approvals on headlights here so we don't have to do ridiculous headlight swaps for compliance... thank god.
