  1. r33 i assume? if so then that is a stock dump pipe. if youe want to complete the exhaust you need a dump and front pipe as well. if your cat is also stock upgrade that to a highflow. there are a few traders on sau selling these components. search aroung in the classifieds and you'll find something to suit. also id recommend doing a bit of reading b4 you purchase. there are plenty of debates on here about each of those products and you'll learn something bout your car as you do
  2. mine lights up. '95 series 1 coupe
  3. those pics will be useful when you want chop some big brakes behind your car with a different style rim. not very practical are they? where is the brake dust gonna go? and any heat?
  4. does changing the intake pipe on a rb25t r33 to ss or silicone (ie the gb bass junky is running) count as an intake mod? can i change the pipe, run stock air box with hi-flow and chuck on a fmic?
  5. you mean clear? do those light up red? i want to find tinted lenses. i have the spray i just prefer something designed tinted from the start.
  6. what are people's thoughts on the endless sss or ssm pads? looking to get these sometime soon. 90% street work, the rest on twisties or track.
  7. dont go through your dealer. you're gonna get reamed on price. head down to the local jap wreckers.

    Sunday Night

    there's not many of us around cos we are all in the same boat as you dude. its the lucky ones like Mr. Events Co-ordinator here who dont have uni to contend with that can take the time to get smashed. it really sux cos now that im on placement, all our tutors at the alfred really cbf coming in to teach us for an hr. therefore we get the day off even though it not a uni holiday. im finished on the friday though. wooties! will definately be going for a long thrash thru the hils and shit and also get off my face (separate occasions - not an idiot).

    Snapping My Car

    its safety related. they dont pass the u.s regulations.
  10. haha thats what happens when im trying to avoid stuidying. hence the ridiculous ones at the bottom. sory dude i dont know where would be the best to source them from.
  11. wingless on a r33 is cheapest and therefore shittest looking. the rear quarters aren't level with the boot. if you want true wingless you're gonna have to shell out for a flush fitting boot. which actually does look good. drift/stealth wing is ok but im not a fan the gtr wing on the other hand looks the best and is my pick. doesnt matter if your car is a gtst, just replace the bits on the side with plain ones or nismo as mentioned above. gt wing can work but its difficult on r33s cos of their roundness. also is a lot less legal than the rest few other options. (dont do this to your car) EDIT: that wing is the jun one as per :
  12. smack me for being a noob but what/where is pikes peak? just curious
  13. i was damn sure that they did. now you've gotten me doubting myself. lol. i'll go check in a bit for ya
  14. i was just looking up specs on r33's the other day and i noticed that some came with a 5spd auto instead of a 4spd like in my car. i also noticed this is only in N/A cars, namely the GTS25 TYPE G and TYPE G SE sedans and the GTS25 AND THE GTS25 TYPE S coupes. im assuming they are series ones, since there is no mention of any of these post '96. now to get to the point. is it feasible to chuck one of these in a turbo model coupe of the same time frame? i have a auto type m, and purely in the interest of fuel economy i am considering this. few q's to guide discussion: 1 how hard are they to find? 2 are they different in any way to the turbo slushie? difference b/n sedan and coupe?(dimension, weight, fitment etc) 3 cost wise is it cheaper or more expensive than a manual conversion? (guessing cheaper) 4 will i have to change my ecu to run it? thanks fellas. btw i got the model info from here
  15. you dont need a skyline to be involved 'round here. im sure you are more than welcome to bring what ever car you have to the meets and events happening around where u are. meantime, hang around, you'll learn a hell of a lot bout the car you want simply by osmosis on these forums yeah it is dude. i think of it this way, if im not allowed on public roads with my car, then its the perfect opportunity to mod it properly. that way it doesn't matter if its held up in a workshop somewhere. and also its an incentive to get more involved with sauvic motorsport/events etc (at least i'll be enjoying my car) why not pat? i mean they can defect us for anythiing right now, how is this any different? EDIT: i realise that they can't do shit if the mods are legal, so ignore the above point i made +1. No need to rub it in
  16. which car are y'all using? im using the 'eyeline gtr'
  17. it does make it pretty easy to stall for a launch.
  18. patientce dude its only been 3 hrs. i heard you can use petrol to wash it untill it runs clean
  19. didn't nissan bring these out from factory? *runs from the stagea owners* i wouldn't go with any car that had a stronger engine in it already (eg gtr). whats the point?but definately something lighter like a s14 or something. you do change the dynamics of thse cars quite badly when doing this ive heard. all depends on what you're using the car for - drift? circuit? drag? street? something to think about
  20. haha that reminds me of my old school caretaker's buggy thing. it had two pedals too. a big green one that said GO and a big red one that said STOP. maybe the pedal is bigger because us auto drivers have bigger feet. and you know what they say bout big feet....
  21. have a good one guys
  22. long stretch of road or not, he had to have hit a traffic lights at some point. its mentioned that he was 'weaving in and out of traffic'. either way like you said he would have been past the cops w/o seeing them. but all they need to see would be his plates. or they could have caught up at the next lights and he wouldnt have known he was in shit till the lights started flashing. also does it really matter if it was 200 or 160?
  23. does it come with the two little dudes in blue?
