  1. hi guys today when i went out to my car i didnt notice but people from my school had put peices of wood behind my tires. So what can i do (in the sence of car-based revenge) to them??? I was thinkin of unpluging his o2 sensor but will that f**k his engine? All help greatly appreciated. EDIT: I would hit him but i have been suspended before and i could get expelled if i start a fight. My school is tight.
  2. Wouldn't this drain your battery real low and provide less power for your engine :S?
  3. I can't get mine clean either. I just thought id mention to be careful what you use. You dont want your steering wheel to end up really slippery.
  4. Yea i just changed my oil / filter. I bought a 5L container of oil and didnt have much left over (prehaps 500mL.) Be sure to get a 5L container
  5. ive used it a couple of times and once i accidently knocked it all over my quarter pannel *whoops!!!* (Ofcourse i washed and scrumbed it straight away). But i havent had any problems and ive been using it since Feb EDIT: i never wash it off, but i think i will from now on
  6. A catalytic converter for an r32 start around $200 (IF your lucky that shoudl include installation aswell). But that is just a regular catalytic converter and not a high flow. EDIT: julion if u want to be sure if your catalytic converter is making that sound quite simply punch it. Lay down beside your car and knock the cat, obviously dont punch it as hard as u can. If it rattles the noise is ur cat
  7. Does it happen when idlling? Is it possible to describe the sound, does it sand like someone has put a coin in a metal jar and is shaking it? I was gonna say it could be your catalytic converter but if its comming from the rear left side then it wouldnt be.
  8. I use 10W30. But ive never used any other oil so i don't know what my R33 N/A would run like if it was on different stuff
  9. How old is your skyline? This generally happens with age. There is a guy on the gold coast who sands/polishes headlights for all types of imports. If your interested hit me with a PM and ill get his name and number for you.
  10. its done around 98000km i have had the car for 6 months and therefore its the first winter ive had it for
  11. i thought that it was for a batton holder lol... you can fit a small sized baseball in them... not that i would know... Can u buy the flares in australia? and how much are you guys selling yours for
  12. i have an '94 R33 NA and recently the oil pressure has been getting to around 6kg/cm^2 This normally happens on a cold start, but it only stays like this for 2 minutes or so. So i was wondering whether i should replace the current oil filter?? cheers
  13. why would you have a flare in your car :S but since everyone else likes them ill buy some!
  14. Here is a link about that tapping sound you get behind your dash. This thread also has a link on how to fix it. I'll give you a very basic overview. You must: 1-remove the dash 2-replace a cog inside your a/c (a second hand cog will cost you around $50 or so) 3- put the dash back on EDIT: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=85225 (didnt include the link in the first post)
  15. Hi guys I'm Rob and I'm from bundy aswell. i have an 1994 R33 GTS with a couple of new body parts. It also has 5" A'pexi Dunk Megaphone exhaust with 4" catback, podfilter and strut brace
  16. have you actually seen the glue that is holding the spoiler on, or are you just guessing that there MAY be glue. If there is not any glue just undo the 4 screws (on my lip spoiler there is 4, so i assume other spoilers are the same). But this means u will need to take the carpet off to get to the screws
  17. Took it into an exhaust place today. I drove it up on the lift, and within 10 seconds they told me it was the cat. Thanks for your help fellas
  18. BUMP This morning it only made the weird sound below idling point (below 800RPM). This occured when i would slowly change gears without giving the car any gas
  19. i forgot to mention, recently i have had a "bit more than usual" amount of white smoke comming out my exhaust pipe. And 4 days ago my car nearly stalled when i tried to start it. Normally it starts perfectly 1st time every time
  20. yea, im definately having it checked tomorrow.
  21. Its a non turbo. It has virtually no engine mods, except for exhaust, pod filter, strut brace. Does that narrow it down?
  22. is that expensive to replace?
  23. I have an S1 skyline. Do you think i should i get someone to pour paint stripper over the word SKYLINE. Obviously being careful not to spill it onto the rest of the part
  24. Today my '94 R33 GTS was driving fine.. no worries. Then when i went to drive home from the physio i had a strange sound comming from under my car. The sound was was comming from middle (underneath the gearbox) or towards the back of the car. I noticed it when i was stationary (in first gear with clutch in) and in neutral with clutch all the way out. I could hear the sound most of the way home and i was driving in 50 - 100km zones. When i pulled up at the lights the sound was terribly loud. But when i raised the RPM to 1200-1500 the sound was gone.. but that really puzzles me. But then again I dont know if it was drowned out by the loudness of my exhaust because it is a 5" exhaust. So moral of the story is that I hear the noise whenever my car is on, but it is loudest when idling. I thought maybe my exhaust had come loose but i checked and it looked fine. Prehaps a screw has fallen into the pipe (is this possible?) Any help is greatly appreciated.
  25. I have a JR air pod filter are these any good? I have never seen them in any import shop so im guessing it was purchased in japan. What type of air pod filter will give me the most KW and should i get a cold air induction whilst im at it. Cheers
