  1. omg you obviously haven't compared RACV to Jack's $ anytime lately..

    Let alone the quality and one of a kind... 'non-dent' & 'non-smash-frontbar' service that Jack provides :P

    'OMG' you obviously don't know what total care is. If its a tow up to 100km it costs about $0. that works out to about $0 per km...not a bad rate really.

  2. Got some spare parts I need to clear out. Make an offer

    -R33 Series 2 blown stock turbo. Good for anyone wanting a hi flow - $200ono SOLD

    -HKS springs, took these out of my R33 as I had a full kit going in. Nice stiff ride and good handling, pics of ride height can be emailed/PM'd on request. - $200

    -4 x R33 series 2 standard shocks - $200

    -R33 series 2 HICAS unit - $50

    -Brand new Whiteline bump stops/dust cover kit. 2 pairs, $50 each

    -Brand new unopened Whiteline rear camber kit for R33. Part number KCA347 - $120

    -R33 S2 sidemount intercooler - $100

    -R33 S2 front and rear sway bars - $50 each

  3. Damn, that sucks..... but what if someone stole the car now?...........

    Hypothetically speaking, lets say it was parked out the front of your house. I assume it's still registered. Let's say you were intending on driving it to the mechanics (If the quarter panels aren't damaged, then can I assume that the rear axle i OK?)

    Suddenly, in the middle of the night, a nasty person makes off with your pride and joy!

    Would this hypothetical situation result in hypothetical $5,000?

    Just a thought.....

    Too bad it probably wouldn't work. Insurance companies would be all over something like this, although they seem to loathe to return your calls in a genuine dispute.

    you've told them your car was in an accident, so its not worth $5k anymore. its worth $5k without existing damage.

    not to mention insurance fraud.

  4. I am wondering what the difference is between a Bar & Plate cooler, and a Tube & Fin cooler. I have been talking to a couple of workshops who reckon the Hybrid Tube & Fin coolers are better than the japanese brand name coolers, because the jap ones use a bar & plate design.

    The workshop reckons that tube & fin is better because it is physically lighter and flows better. It also allows better flow to the radiator.

    I was wondering if anyone else can confirm or deny this and also tell me which is better for cooling capacity.

    The Hybrid Tube & fin cooler is $1400 supplied and fitted which I thought was a bit steep, but if it is as good as they make out, then I don't mind paying the extra cash. But is it really that much better than the $400 GKTech kit?

    someone posted in the other thread that tube and fin is good for circuit cars etc, as they experience prolonged periods of power...but for street and drag, bar and plate is fine...

    $1400 for a hybrid...ouch

  5. Really? The way I work it out, the PFC cost about $1100, PFC boost controller $400, Tuning $500, that is $2000 just there. I don't think I would get a FMIC + fitting, and exhaust for $1000.....

    I might let the dyno decide. I will do a run before I do any mods and see how the AFRs and power curve looks, if they look ok, then the FMIC will be the go, if they look a bit dodgy, then the PFC might be a better choice.

    One question about the PFC, can I get the factory fuel cuts and things like that removed or changed with the PFC? Will the factory fuel cuts cause any problems with extra boost if I run the stock ECU?

    pfc - $960

    batmbl split dump + hi flow cat - $700max

    fmic $400 - GKTech Group buy

    tune - $500
