cheers for the advice badhairdave, regarding the caster - the alignment report has the left caster at 1.4 degrees, whilst the right is 2.6 degrees the guy said he could not adjust them - hence probably doesnt have an adjustable bush

Hi all, When having my car wheel aligned, the guys found that the passanger side rear steering arm is slightly bent. They also noticed different lengths with the castor rods (however look like stock rods).... is this normal? The guy was saying that the car would pull to the side quite badly unless I changed to an adjustible arm/or caster bush. The car does not have any issues with steering or drivability - it actually handles like a dream! Would the difference in rod length, or bend in the rear steering be a major issue if it drives well (seems to have even tyre wear too)? Cheers

Hi guys, I realised my passenger side side indicator is not working, I have removed the cover/bulb, and there is no wiring! I have removed the wheel arch cover and have looked behind the guard - and there are no wires -WTF??? Does anyone know where the indicator wires come from so I can tap into it? Or Do you think I could just simply run a wire from the front indicator to power it? Thanks in advance

another +1 for boostworx. Its not that far from Prospect - I'm at Enfield and its only a 5min drive. I've only had good experiences - prices are good, they explain everything, and are passionate about imports.

Just spotted a very nice white R32 GTR just out side the city - poor guy had the bonnet up having an inspection from the boys in blue. If you got pulled over for nothing, I feel for ya!

Price drop!!! $10,500!!!

Just as J'z-R33 said. move the backrest forward, whilst in the forward position, wind the knob all the way - then its fixed! Cheers

Good old WD40 - its good for everything! I've tried turning the knob whilst the seat is in the forward position - and it wont budge - think I will try pulling it apart. Has anyone done this? I dont want to stuff it up and be without a seat!!! If not I'll get someone to weld it in place!

Well worth every penny! I'm dying to take it to the hills for some windy roads!

Hi, first of all, I'm not actually new to SAU, but really am new to actually posting things. I have experienced two things today. 1. the guys who reply to posts, share information, and help their fellow man (and especially the moderators) - you guys rock!! 2. I never knew a person could be this happy - today I drove my new R32 GTR! I was pretty pleased with my R33GTST, but holy crap the GTR is insane!!!!!!!! Simple pleasures in life!

Do you mean the idler pully? So the bolt in the centre of the pully needs to be loosened? DanShirts - great quote from your dad! "My dad told me this once: Somehow someone put that belt. You should be able to get it off" Cheers guys

Hi SWITZER, I have loosened the adjuster bolts - but it still wont budge. I'm even thinking that the belts are too small for the car, meaning they have been adjusted as much as possible, therefore I cannot make them looser. I was considering cutting the belt off then seeing if it can move (but if I'm wrong I wont beable to get a belt back on!) So there are no other bolts that need to be loosened, just the adjuster bolts (one under the idler, and one under the power steering)?

Hi guys, I've got a GTR and the drivers seat with lever forward, however the reclining knob wont budge. The seat is therefire stuck in a reclined position (little too far away!). Has anyone experienced this?

Edit: Just after the spoiler and coilpack cover (not swapping the lip). Thanks

Hi guys, just wondering if someone can help me. I have attempted to replace the belts for the power steering and also the air conditioner. I have loosened the adjustor bolts, however cannot seem to move either the idler pulley or the air con unit, to release the tension. What am I doing wrong??? Cheers

HI, sorry for the lack of contact. I think my A/C compressor has died. I'm having it looked at today. When its fixed we'll talk (thats if it is not gone already). Cheers

Pics of mine (if it worked). I'll chat to the misses, and give you a call soon.

Hi, sorry I cant PM. How much cash do you feel your car is worth? I have a 1995 R33 manual with 126K on the clock. mods include: FMIC, stainless steel turbo back exhaust, adjustable swaybars/caster, leather look interior, 17inch rays nismo LMGT1 wheels. I may consider a trade with cash my way. Cheers

Hey crew, I get roughtly 11-12L/100kms, and have even been in the 10s. Fuel per tank is about 500-550kms. This is with 11psi, FMIC, Full exhaust, and a fairly heavy right foot when in the mood - frequently I might be one of the lucky ones with my ECU by the sounds of things. Come to think of it, even with higher boost, I have never felt flatspot, or R&R, that is commonally mentioned.

Hey MissR34, I drove past you today on Bridge Rd on my way home from work. Well all I can say is it is a very nice and clean looking 34. Great work! (not that skylines need any help in looking great!)

Update - Well the finger printing came back too smuged so no luck there. The car was found in a factory carpark near the edinbourgh defence force, behind gates of the business. Talking to one of the workers - it might have got stolen near shift change, so maybe someone stole it and bloody went to work there. Thankfully it was left over night and the gates were locked so noone could get to it. Bloody lucky is all I can say. But here is the lesson to learn - he had no alarm, immobiliser, and the worst part, no insurance. So to all of you out there beware, get yourselves bloody protected!

The RX7 has been found!!!!!!!!! Luckily there was bugger all petrol in it, and they didn't make it far (only the next suburb). As far as I know (being finger printed right as I type), only the ignition is stuffed. It is my mates car so all credit on the car I must say goes to him. Cheers boys for your support, and the good news that another car has been recovered.
