sold yet? -
1998 * 1.4 = 2797 3379 / 1.4 = 2426 what gives then? RB24? what suspension are you planning btw?

great site in general for wiring if you don't have stock wiring still (ie: someone else has butchered it before you).... and for nissan's specifically http://www.installdr.com/Harnesses/Nissan-Wiring.pdf don't foget to give 12V to the aerial also, it's a single plug with a black/red stripe wire - your radio reception will be arse without it!

aha - good point. I was taking the rules too literally when I was reading them I guess! with regards to the Rb30 bit - typos for both of these entrants (here and here) or am I missing something? also, can someone explain how it can be eligible for both classic and modern at the same time? with Tim Possingham doing so well the past few years, seems they are coming down a bit harder on turbo imports. doubt they would notice something like a R34 cooler in place of the R32 one though.... besides, it's only cheating when you get caught breaking the rules
-
you still looking to do this? I potentially have some gear for sale that will be close to your budget, blow away the merc system and fit into an R32 no worries.

Gfb Mach1 Bov - Excellent Condition

Sold pending payment -
I'm planning mine to be CAMS for classic adelaide. can't even change the intercooler. or run a GTR body kit! trying to work out what the deal is Targa, in modern they let them run coolers and GTR kits, and then some ran in classic last year with RB30 base engines!

Gfb Mach1 Bov - Excellent Condition

this won't be a direct fit to a RB25 guys. needs a different adaptor. -
is that legal as per the CAMS tarmac rally reg's? I thought it was 1mm overbore only (and even then, that might be for NA only) the car falls under M3 regs (section 11 of CAMS manual)
-
updates? how are you going?
-
Mine came in the post today. thank you very much. I hadn't picked up they were leather - not "pleather" - bonus! will post some pics when fitted.
-
they do look really good on the R34. something about factory wheels a few generations newer on cars - can't beat it.

nothing wrong with being self insured guys. you just need to remember that without third party, you are responsible for any damage to other people's property. it's one thing not to have your car covered, but to not cover what damage you might cause to other people's property - with no means to pay it back later - it socially irresponsible IMHO. 3rd party only is VERY cheap, I like to refer to it as "rolls royce" insurance - ie: you won't have to fit the bill for a rolls royce if you hit one Be ready for a shit fight mate, insurance companies often fight hard against people with no insurance. they will automatically assume that you won't be able to afford a lawyer also and will use theirs to try and put some blame onto you. You'll also have to respond to all of THEIR demands if you want your money as you don't have someone to keep up the fight for you. It is very hard to battle against an insurance company as a layman. watch 'em try and value your car at around $13K as a start too - this is redbook low end for trade in value. and be careful with quoting costs for modified parts - got a quote on a factory exhaust before? it will cost WAY more than any HKS/APEXi/TRUST jobbie you can find, used or new. I saw someone try and up receipts for mods once, the insurance company argued that the cost of all the factory parts should be DEDUCTED from the cost of the vehicle prior to adding on the cost of the aftermarket pieces. They may even begin to bring into account the relative roadworthyness of your car if you start quoting things like coilovers etc - if they can do that, all of a sudden blame starts to head your way"in court "His car was un-roadworthy and un-insurable, look he couldn't even get insurance, his car should not have been on the road! your best bet is to find cars in similar condition and level of modification to yours for sale and argue the value that way. Be VERY careful in your wordings, make sure all your correspondance is written and get legal advice - QUICK. the couple of grand a lawyer might cost for a couple of quick letters (like, tomorrow or tuesday) may mean the difference in $10-15K payout.

excellent advice :up: I've seen some pretty shit cables. like, completely unshielded ones where it didn't matter where they were run they picked up noise, even from tiny factory power to things like interior lights. a set of $20 Jaycar ones solved the issue.

where are you located in Adelaide mate? I can let you listen to my Audison/Focal/Alpine setup which I reckon would shit on any factory system from a great height. CR's budget gets the thumbs up. could be repeated for around the $3K mark if you spend wisely. i'm close to the city, happy to go for a drive anytime!
