  1. on the limiter in first is so much more HECTIC.
  2. How much do you want for it, i need a standard RB25 turbo to get the 25>180sx conversion engineered. It one of the last parts i need. Chad i ended up with that TD06-17c but it's too laggy for a RB20. You wouldn't be seeing full boost until 4500+ RPM but it will support up to 275kw.
  3. True but the 180 doesn;t have an engine in it ATM and i dont have the street car that's running either. And i'm still getting knackered at the drop of a hat so i'm still to sick to fix either of them. but i am really saving money because there's no alcohol or petty to buy.
  4. All those people complaining about not getting time off over the festive season; i've been working in hospitality for 9 years and have never had a new years off and rarely get x-mas off. Finally get one off this year and because i've just got over Glandular fever i can't drink for 2 months. So no drinking for x-mas, new years or big day out (first time i'm going). I've also worked every birthday since i was 23. Now where are those violins.
  5. as long as your injectors and AFM are standard you won't have a problem
  6. There's something wrong with your rating system then. I'd prefer a 265 HEMI to an RB20.
  7. Time for the GAS AXE;
  8. Well that answers that question
  9. I think you will find that the rear end isn;t slipping but the HICAS is loosing is shit and letting the rear end track where ever it wants, which would explain why the HICAS light is flashing, It could be as simple as air in the lines. I'd also check the fluid levels for the HICAS/Power steering.
  10. Craig's picking up a couple of the rims tomorrow to trial fit them so we'll see if he's going to take them. I only cleaned them up today and they are in a lot better condition than i though. I also have these which are 17x7 Volk GT-P copies. you can have them for $550;
  11. These would be no good for the GTR because they are different widths
  12. $1100 They cost me $1020 to buy and $80 to get here, so you can have them for what i paid for them.
  13. Hey Craig you can always buy those meshies off me that i bought and not going to use. I clean up two of them today. Rears Fronts
  14. Andrew i'm not saying that i'm an angle infact it well and truely the opposite. But there is a time and place for everything and yesterday afternoon on an official cruise in broad daylight was not the place. If you have 100 cars on a cruise and 10 of them are being dicks then as far as joe public is concerned there were 100 cars being dicks in the hills. It's not correct but it is their perception and that is the battle that the import scene is fighting here, it all about perception. We are an endangered species and i don;t get why other people don't see it. With the harsh laws that have been passed in the last 2 years and the inevitable laws that will continued to be passed eventually we won;t be able to take our cars down to the shops to get milk without being hasseled and when that day happens we only have the blokes like SteveP and 1J on NS to blame when they condone the bahavour of the guys how act like tools on large officially run cruises.
  15. I actually think over the past couple years their big cruises have got progressively worse. I think it comes down to the fact that with the increased every day attention import drivers are getting on the street, people are just leaving their car in the garage most of the time. So when they finally do bring there cars out for a special event like the big cruises then they try and make up for it. You have to remember though that from well over 100 cars that were on the cruise there were probably only <20 that were miss-behaving (there was a video posted on one of the thread for a short while of their antics).
  16. I think that the cops are full of shit. The cruise would have been lucky to pass 125 people and the chance of every one of them picking up the phone and calling the cops is very unlikely. they would have received 20 calls max if they received any. Remember the cops were notified of the cruise because it was an official cruise and they would have decided long ago that they were going to "have a strong presence", so regardless of what happened people were going to get defected.
  17. what reports?
  18. Has anyone get a leakdown testing kit i can borrow??
  19. they're pretty easy to make up craig, Just go to AAA's get them to ben up some 2.5" stainless, flare one end and shrink the other and away you go. Will cost you <$100.
  20. it's just running rich like chad said, you can take it to some one to check your AFR's (Not AFMR's)but there is nothing they can do about it anyway because you can't tune anything with the standard ECU, all they can do is play with your timing. Just take it to anyplace that has a dyno and get them to run it up to check the AFR's get the print out and post it up here and we'll go from there. Shop around because you shouldn't be paying more than $80 for a few quick runs, otherwise wait till someone is holding a dyno day and do it then.
  21. LOL "we got a 187 in glendale, the cops are all over it, we're good to go"
  22. Well i had some what of a sucessful day. got the Cressy i bough a few month ago running (just an ignition issue in the end) but then found that the headgasket is stuffed (which i suspected anyway). So if anyone wants an 1993 MX83 Cressy with 178,000km's on the clock with a blown headgasket you can have it for $1300. Or i'll do the gasket myself and put $3000 on it. Also started pulling parts off the CA to clean them up; EDIT!! As for the R32 GTR Vs' R33 GTS-t Brakes they both have the same diameter but the GTR rotors are thicker (32mm V's the GTS-t's 30mm)
  23. writeoff; how do you get the money from your paypal account into you bank account, and how does paypal get the money from your account when you buy stuff? That's right paypal have access to your bank account!! So if paypal sides with the buyer then they will just rip the money out of your bank account the same way they would if you bought something. The only way you can protect yourself is to set up a bank account just for the transaction and as soon as the money clears pull the money out and close the account, which is too much of a stuff around to sell a car, especially when they can just put the money in your account the way normal people do. They are setting him up, and it is highlighted by the fact they are bending over backwards to seal the deal with paypal (i.e. offering to pay the paypal fees and such)
  24. That one that Steve posted definitely looks like a better buy. Something about that Ebay GTR that looks rough to me.
