  1. We were in my car though (R34 4 Door) Gave you a wave as you boosted past
  2. Followed a nice white V35 350GT Coupe through Cardiff today at 5pm, lady driver. Plates BFK75D. Sounds real nice
  3. Is the rattling coming from the head or bottom end? Rattling sound could just be lifters. Did you replace the oil recently? Is there enough oil? Run it for around 20minutes and see if gets quieter/goes away. This is a pretty common problem. -Brent.
  4. Hey dude, spotted you too, only just saw you in time, and didn't get a wave in! My car isn't that stock, it has coilovers, exhaust, Origin rear bootlip and R33 GTR rims
  5. Could also be tie rod ends? I've noticed the same feeling you're describing, and my tie rods have a bit of play in them. I'm putting the problem down to them. I'm yet to replace them, but when I do, I'll let you know how it feels. -Brent.
  6. Anyone sourced any yet? I'm in need of some...
  7. That was me in the R31 And my twin bro in the 32. I'll get him to post up here. DV11SH makes me want a Black R34 4 door very much Looks awesome.
  8. That thing is always in Cardiff. It just sits in slightly difference spots all the time because it's for sale. Atleast it looks better than it did. I beleive it had a Veilside kit when it was for sale in a car yard at Edgeworth. Also I spotted a Grey or Black R33 in Cardiff (Cardiff Toyota Intersection) at around.. 8:00pm-ish.
  9. Hey, just looking for the guy I was cruising through near redcliffe tonight around 6:30. White R33, with SAU sticker. I have the White R31. You know who I am Sorry I forgot your username already lol.
  10. Spotted an R33 pass me Northbound on Sydney/Newcastle Freeway and then spotted it going Southbound about 15minutes later. Looks very nice
  11. Followed a Grey R32 GTST from Glendale today, he pulled into the Mobil I think. Looked shmick. Plates were BAE-xxx.
  12. Spotted Grey R33 at roundabout just before Salamander Shopping centre. Gave me a nod, I waved back.
  13. Spotted White R33 S2 with silver/polished aluminum rims, nice dish coming out of Cardiff Industrial at about 3pm today.
  14. Spotted white R33 S2 in Beaumont street today. Also spotted 2 White R33's together at intersection of Tudor and Parry Street. Thought one was MzSkyline's car? Not sure though.
  15. Went over 100,000k's on sunday Was going to take a pic but cbf.
  16. Are you saying all R33's have VCT? If so I didn't know this... No mechanics told me it, I just read it somewhere... Probably wikipedia or something inaccurate like that. It was a while ago. Hell, I could even be imagining that this is the case. Maybe previous owner didn't know or was lieing that it came out of an R33. Is there any visible way I can tell whether it has VCT? Thanks... Here is my engine:
  17. Hmmm. My RB25 made 115rwkw, with catback exhaust and a pod. I didn't think it would make much difference though? Does anyone think any internal mods could have been done? I've always wondered this myself, but the previous seller never stated so. It's only out of an R33 Series 1, so it hasn't even got VCT.
  18. I have an R32 with an RB25DE, but it has had the conversion done.
  19. Have you got any mods? If so, what mods. My RB25DE with only cat-back exhaust (probably makes no diff anyway) make 115kw aswell. No other mods, I am sure of that
  20. Yes please mate, I would appreciate it. I tried photochopping it, but any colour is hard to match from black in photoshop. -Brent.
  21. Nah, the coupe pods don't fit very well, and the 4 door pods are very hard to find, and will cost too much I think i like your first idea
  22. Well actually, when we were getting the front bar sprayed (soon I hope) to same colour, the rear bar was going to be sprayed too, because the condition of it is a bit scrappy (can't see the other side). Thanks for the ideas though mate, I really think it will help just thinking about it now -Brent.
  23. Hey, I was just wondering if any brand makes a rear bar for the 4 door R32 which isn't so bulky like BN Sports, Vertex etc. As you can see in the picture, the sideskirts were a genuine factory option and aren't big like the other brands, so I need something that will suit them, as well as the Type-M front bar which doesn't come down too low either. Basically I would like to achieve a subtle kind of look. Yes the front bar is black and will be sprayed soon Thanks alot, Brent.
  24. Hey, well i'm in need of some quick advice before tomorrow. I need to know some reasonable settings for taking pictures of some drifting at Oran Park tomorrow. I've been taking photos for a while, and am not shit at it, just don't use custom settings for aperture and exposure etc. I have a tripod and will be using it. So, my basic question is how can I setup my camera (Nikon D50) to take some pretty reasonable action pictures of motorsport. For Example: (Hope you don't mind Mike ) Thanks a heap, Brent :sorcerer:
  25. Well the R33 Autech 4 door is a "40th Anniversary Edition". There was also a Nismo version of the Autech version lol, but both I think are the same year model. I've searched thoroughly for about 1 hour or more. And finally come up with that.... Skylines were first produced in 1957, making the Autech R33 a 1997 model. Hope that can help Some reference links: http://www.jbskyline.net/R33/4door/ http://www.autech.co.jp/HISTORY-SV/R33S01/index.htm Oh yea, I couldnt find out how many were made. But somewhere in posts previously, i have seen the figures 400-500 ish.. Meh, another add to the post. First skyline was built in 1957
