  1. And for the lazies... http://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/khanazed.wmv
  2. Bump steer on the road is THE worst thing... Quickest way to find a gutter!
  3. Said like a true Bogan... But agreed on no replacement for displacement... Drool over 6.0L Twin Turbo...
  4. Joel, if your GF only puts out twice a year, get a new one... You're thinking of a wife... And Prue, all you need is a few booty calls and you're fine...
  5. C is the course to do. Way less under steer then on course a when I did it. Plus if you do it like Reece, you only use opposite lock...
  6. It's great for moving A to B, and towing etc, but it sure as hell is no performance car... If it is, enter it at the next track day, BOTH OF YOU!
  7. Get rid of the woman and you'll cruise every week!
  8. Can we redo the exhaust, and take it to texi? 3Rd gear off the mark frying tyres?
  9. That turbo that when pop... Well, just for the sake of laughing at you, I hope a tiny tiny piece got into your engin and fuxed your bore... And I don't have issues... I just feel the need to replace things often...
  10. It's actually very tempting to part the whole car out where it sits you know... ButI'll probably drop a new bottom end in and sell as a whole.
  11. Chubbs, as Andrew said you NEED to use the sender that came with the gauge. The sender in the car and the sender that came with the gauge will send out a different signal for the same pressure, hence your gauge going off the dial. Swap senders, all perfect!
  12. The opening paragraph had me laughing! This should be done, how people realise halfway through a project they should have done it! Screw the motor, make it steer and stop first!
  13. Not everyone is a pedobear either. If you want something to track once a month, buy a dedo track car, buy a Commodore for daily duties, get the track car setup for like improved production (So you keep it "stock") and just drive the doors off it! My R33 GTS-t will most lkely be up for sale in Jan as I'm looking atspending a lot of time over seas.

    Rage!

    To put it simply, it looks like 90% of the things bolting the wheel, to the car body, are bent. And phatlavish expanded the abbreviations... LOL Sorry bout that.
  15. Interesting... Very interesting... I need to redo my centre console, and that looks f**kING ACE!

    Rage!

    By the looks of that the LCA is bent, UCA is bent tie rod arm, most likely dont something to ATLEAST a sway bar link (If not the sway bar). You'll probably find the chassis could be bent slightly too, or at least the mounting points. I'd be having EVERYTHING stripped off the front, assessed, and put through insurance.
  17. Wait, so where did the air con controls go?
  18. How did you make that centre piece (The one looking like carbon fibre) Is it just a piece of metal with fake carbon "sticker" over it, or is it proper carbon fiber?
  19. So... I always thought transformers was just a bit of sci-fi... Turns out it isn't... My R33 went 300ZX... And going on holidays overseas has now thrown a spanner in the works again with this project...
  20. Coilpacks on an R34, depending on brand, $350 - $1000 depending on what brand you buy and what the exchange rate is like at the time. They basically all do the same job for 90% of people. On an R34 GTt it is a bit of a longer more time consuming thing to swap them out over an R32/R33 but if you want to learn to service it yourself, you'll need to learn how to get them out quickly so you can swap plugs. The R34 boot *might* be big enough for a body board. The other thing you'll need to be aware of, the Skyline is one of the most often pulled over cars for a "random check". This can get annoying especially if it isn't dead standard. Something like an XR6T, or an EVO often goes unnoticed even when modified.
  21. If you don't: Throw a leg out of bed. Spin a bearing. Smash a Gearbox Leave a diff on the ground Or Eject the axles from a car, You're just not trying hard enough!
  22. This man, is correct... I was running "250RWKW" or so the dyno claimed (Injector Duty Cycle and AFR claimed around another 100RWKW), and even sitting at 130KM/H on semi slicks, I just couldn't put that power down without rolling off the throttle as it came on boost... On the street tyres it even turned them in 4th if you quick shifted 3rd - 4th. If it were a GTR, it would have started to spin, attessa would kick in, and it'd be all over... Although, there's nothing like giving it a big crack of throttle for the first time to overtake and ending up sideways trying to grab 4th... Sorry Mr Baxter... but your ute just didn't keep up!
  23. Oh, I agree that Repco is just some other manufacturer with "Repco" writing instead of their own brand... But they have take some abuse, and are starting to give up a bit now... The Snap On stuff we had, well, it was rubbish. Haven't tried their ratchet sets etc, but the pieces we were buying, we sent that many back from snapping them cleanly in half...
  24. All of the mechanics I know all say the words "Steer clear of Snap On" when buying tools these days. They used to be great, they really did, these days, they're rubbish. My fathers business was originally buying snap on gear (About 9 years ago now) for these special allen key pieces that go on a breaking bar, they were listed as "Unbreakable, with a lifetime guarantee". We used to send them back every month for replacement. In the end, brand name change (KingChrome), haven't broken one since. I have "repco" tools personally myself, they have a lifetime guarantee, and I'm about to send back my ratchet, and my extension... The extension is bending, the ratchet has gone "floppy" and no longer sits at 90 degrees.
