  1. yeah kero should work, but again, be ULTRA CAREFUL not to get it on the tyres.
  2. Get someone to sit in the back seat while you go for a drive, they might have a better chance of pinpointing exactly where the noise is coming from
  3. metho will remove the staining, but if you want to give it a go, be EXTREMELY careful and make sure you don't get any on the tyres. Put the metho on a rag, apply it directly to the stained areas and rub. *Disclaimer: If your tyres melt, i won't take responsibility for it! If you want to try something a bit safer, have a go with some autosol.
  4. If you get pulled over, they can still do an interstate licence check. It just means you have to sit around and wait ages while the operator contacts authorities interstate to verify your details.
  5. At Sandown today:
  6. 103.4 sounds reasonable, I would probably have expected more with the mods it's got. ...the manuals have less loss of power via drivetrain, add in the extractors and chipped ECU, and it's not an unrealistic number. My Ti (auto) was dyno'd at 101.8 with only a pod & advanced timing. Why do people always blame the dyno when they don't like the numbers other peoples cars produce.
  7. Be aware, that the people at VicRoads have bugger all idea when it comes to these things. (In fact, the people at VicRoads have bugger all of an idea when it comes to anything, most of them would probably need 10 minutes and 2 other people assisting them to work out what their own name is) If you're banned from holding a licence in QLD, then you can't transfer your suspended licence to a VIC one... so yeah... if you're licence is going to be suspended in QLD, get down here asap and make an appointment! and lol @ james & SCMODS (glad i'm not the only one here old enough to remember that)
  8. This should answer your questions. Don't change your licence until you're a resident.
  9. Are you serious? I really can't imagine anyone wanting to downgrade from an RB30e to a RB20e

  11. There's no registered trader here with that name. Is the one you're after performance-wise?
  12. I thought about locking this....... but I decided to leave it open in the hope that the thread starter would see the error of their ways and offer an apology.
  13. ah.. ok, i knew it was modified, but i didn't think it was hugely modified. i'll shut my trap and wait for your pics
  14. I think with the carpets from knox, they only mould them, and you have to cut them out yourself? ....this is based on "what I heard" so it's probably wrong Are you able to confirm this either way Shan?
  15. I miss this guy (formerly known as :uh: iirc) Which was then replaced with which just wasn't the same. Then both got replaced with
  16. A belt buckle attached to a seat would be extremely ineffective in an accident.
  17. Spotted on Chandler Rd in Noble Park last night..... I think the plates were STAGEN? Very yummy.
  18. Unless it's an import! (But I only know of one of these in Aus) Series 1+2 GXE Pintara Series 3 Skyline You'll find more information, specifications and pictures in this article (But NismoR31Jet pretty much covered everything already)
  19. I was under the impression that it was a standard feature in the Passage?
  20. I just went up to the car wash to clean the tree poo off the wagon.... Some time in the last week, they installed a "dogwash" cubicle! So now you can go and wash your car, and your dog, then put your soggy doggy back into your clean car to give it that lovely "wet mutt" smell. Some dude wandered into my wash bay while I was minding my own business, so angled the hose to ensure that he copped maximum overspray. I also had a nice play with the brush while I was there.... that thing is sooooo soft. You'd have to be trying really hard to scratch the paint with it. The biggest danger to the paint, is if you start moving too fast and the hose slaps against the car. Some people seem to be under the impression that it's as stiff as a decking brush or something.... i think the people who started the stories of "don't use the brush, it scratches the paint" are the same ones who started the rumour of "you have to put your pod filter in a box for it to be legal" I also checked all the signs while i was up there. All the signs have "Melbourne water" on the bottom of them.... The "NO BUCKETS" signs are painted directly on to the concrete pillars which divide the bays. Perhaps there's a "Melbourne" in California? I use the brush, and it cost me $1 less than Sir-D, who took a bucket with him! My method: Put your money in $1 at a time so you don't have to rush. First dollar, Rinse car well from top to bottom, Rinse brush in last 10 seconds before time runs out. Second dollar, Foam brush, starting at the top, apply as much foam as you can to the entire car. When the buck runs out and the brush stops foaming, the car will be covered in foam, and you can pay special attention to any areas that you missed while you were rushing around. Don't put the brush near the wheels until you're finished with body. The brush isn't stiff enough to clean my wheels, but I give them a run over anyway, just to get the surface dust off. Third dollar, Rinse. (Drive off under brakes to cook any excess water off) DONE!
  21. The seatbelt buckle is attached to the rail, not the seat. If you swap the rails over, the buckle goes with it.
  22. Try using explorer. http://www.takakaira.com/ doesn't like firefox.
  23. Got a set of GT-R seats sitting here, so I just had a look. The side of the seats which sit near the tranny tunnel are angled slightly upward to accomodate the tunnel. If you were to swap the gear straight over, you'd end up with one side of your bum higher than the other. You could probably overcome this with some custom rails, or spacers might do the job, it's not a HUGE difference, it's only a couple of centimetres. Other than that, I can't tell if there'd be any major problems (but I haven't pulled them apart, and don't intend to)
