cheers bec n sarah. yeah sunshine steve, ideally I guess I'd wanna use the R34 one coz its the latest design, but I'm not really picky. I know the R32 one and the R34 one are totally different, but I assumed the R33 and R34 were similar.

you can buy a nissan navara speedo cable from nissan pretty cheap. virtually identical to the R32 one, but might have to change the gear that plugs into the gearbox with the old one depending on how many teeth yours has.

lol... i'll pay that. i was hoping to get a navy blue or silver GTS4, but the only one I could find that wasn't from a snowy region (no rust in the underbody) 3 days before the laws changed jsut happened to be black.

Wierd request I know, but I need to borrow a GTR badge so I can take some measurements off it, and cast it. Would prefer an R33/34 (think they're the same shape) but will settle for an R32. Anyone got one lying around that I can borrow for a week? I just finished silicone casting some model pieces, and have a little silicone left over, so I was gonna give making the GTS and GTt badges a go. If I can get a cast of the GTR badge and some measurements, then I can mock up a clay GTS badge and hopefully cast it to make some acrylic badges.

1080i is the same resolution as 1080p, but each scan only updates half the number of lines, so it takes 2 passes on a 1080i instead of one on a 1080p to change a frame.

hmm... dunno fi I still have pics of all my cars, but 1998: 180SX 1999: same 180SX got a frontend S15 conversion 2001: R32 2002: another R32 2004: AE86 2004 (borrowed Ben's frankenstien Sky80 for a couple of months after selling one R32 and waiting for another car to come from japan) 2005: Sold the R32 2005: Cefiro (now dad's car) 2006: R32 GTS4 2007: S14 (half hot pink, half maroon)... soon to be track car if I don't sell it There's a frew more inbetween that I only owned for a couple of weeks before selling etc. not worth mentioning. Its wierd, most people can only ever remember me owning R32's. Always had one... probably always will.

Call Roshan at Driftline (0425855540). He seamwelded Adam newton's R32 on a rotissary, so he'll have all the info you need.

14K for an R34 GT? That's a pretty good price from a dealer.

deadset serious. i'm waiting on a quote back from an importer who said he can get the tyres for $150USD each plus shipping from the US.Got your PM, will get back to you as soon as I hear from this importer.

I'm in for this too... and I might bring my mate Russel (he's on SAU just dosen't post). He ate the 1kg steak at our pub (he gets it rare too... blood everywhere) and helped finish the other's meals too.

oh yeah, thought I'd mention... The Good Guys have a Conia 1024x768 (1080i/720p) 42" Plasma for $996, which is cheap as, even if its not true HD. Dosen't have HDMI inputs but takes VGA and component. Was considering getting one to chuck in the spare room.

I see your V10 Viper based Sturgis 10... and raise you a V12 BMW bike http://paultan.org/archives/2006/04/30/hms...-dragster-bike/ Here's a better pic, the bike in the background is a harley for size comparison. Looks like a dragster chassis with a Viper engine crammed into it.

lol league.

if you're buyin em at auction in japan, ask the seller mehbe?

how can your car idle at 6000rpm? do you mean 600rpm? coz 600 is normal.

it looks like an R32 sedan... lol bugger all difference. i'll see if i can find some pics

lol welcome to the "i have a skyline" feeling. as above... pics of the beast!

what about it? looks normal to me?nice clean car... did they come out with those headlights and taillights in phillipines? And you HAVE to put up pics of the legendard RB24S "carby RB" engine. Also could you do me a huge favour and check on your headlight if it has the word "DOT" on it? AFAIK almost all cars sold in the phillipines were done to US standards, so that means that the LHD ceffies should have DOT approved headlights and tail lights.

OI! stop takin pics of my house fewl! lol that's my old man's car... and goin by the pic, that was before we fixed the front bumper. lol I drove past your house with my dad, and showed him your black cef... now he thinks they're as common as commodores and everyone has a black S1 cef. Its the stockest of the stock cef's you'll ever find... even the head unit is a factory S15 cd/tape player as my old man dosen't believe in aftermarket stuff (don't ask). The wheels are factory option BBS that came with the car. My old man has this concept stuck in his head that factory stuff are better than aftermarket... if something needs fixing he insists on ordering it from Nissan. drives me up the wall. Should catch up tho, seeing as you live down the street and all.

there's three types of centres for most 3 piece or 2 piece wheels. A, B and C. From memory B centres will clear standard R32 calipers and you'll need C for brembos. They should be marked on the sticker on the inside, or on the inside of one of the spokes.

common swaps are laurel<->ceffy as they're virtually the same chassis, even the dash bolts in from the other and keeps to the same door trim lines. then you have silvia fronts on ceffies (god knows why, they look almost the same) and finally R32 and 180sx fronts. There is a dude who did a BMW 3 series front on a ceffy too in the UAE or something along those lines. I reckon VL Holden front end on a ceffy would look gangster.

Hi Matt, I'ver got 6 hand controllers I can send out to you, leftovers from teh last group buy. If not they're just gonna go on ebay, rather just send one bulk package than multiples. Time was something I didn't manage well in my GB, which is why it sorta unravelled at the end. You seem to have it well organised, so best of luck.

I say Leelah eats the luther burger if Age eats.... The Ham Dog

talk to a compliance workshop that complies R32 skylines. They have ADR clearance/testing data for both coupe and sedan tail lights (sedans are variants on the original docs). This should show factory specification, translucency, colouration and reflectivity. Most of em won't give the info away easily (because they spent hundreds tabulating it, and you could be a competitor) but be nice and they might just give you a copy of that page out of the 100+ page ADR evidence book.

like hektik insane or jus ridecalas insane? nah we're tryin help, but you need to get the right info first.
