  1. guessing by up south you meant down south, you guys have turbo tune down ur way too don't you?
  2. does your car have the standard suspension in it neway?
  3. how far north are we talking here? I know i might have replies to this but up north is also Tilbrooks and Morpowa. Haven't been to Morpowa and dunno if Tilbrooks have fixed their dyno yet but they up north too
  4. i'm not sure but i'll beat ppl to the punch and say boostworx! Pretty sure they are down south.
  5. spotted a couple of white 34's near the east side of the city today just passing thru
  6. er, no. ur wrong! mate got alpine type r's from autobarn last year from mile end store i think.
  7. yeah i agree with you guys, really liking that millenium jade colour. dunno if i'll be able to find one that colour but we'll see how i go.
  8. spotted a black 34 on north east road in gilles plains today
  9. It's not suspension but my mate bought some speakers from autobahn for his 04 WRX and he told the chick what speakers he needed but she assured him that he needed different ones. They were top of the line Alpine's i think and when he got em home, guess what, they didn't fit! He took em back and explained that she was wrong and stuff and then she was like "Oh, you meant for a 04 WRX, I thought you said a 98 WRX". THICK AS! The ones he needed were a different price and he refused to pay that price because she stuffed up, the ones he needed weren't on special like the other ones. She was like but I'll get in trouble with my manager and my mate was like well you should have done your job right the first time and we wouldn't have had this problem, DUH! So, he ended up getting top of the range Alpine speakers that were meant to be close to $300 for under $100, haha suckers! Good luck with your suspension though mate, hopefully you know not to use them next time.
  10. dont they sell em to you from the nissan dealerships? probably expensive but have you asked them yet?
  11. kool, didn't think of searching it like that. thanks dude, you were a big help!
  12. howdy, was wondering if anyone can help me find samples on the net of the actual colours themselves? i have looked at the codes section but that doesn't show me what the actual colours look like. tried searching on google but it isn't helping. ne help would be much appreciated, thanks
  13. i've tried searching this on google but it's not helping me much. ne1 know where i can actually see the different colours of 34 GTRs that you can buy? i know we got the paint codes but that just tells me the name when i would like to see the colour. ne help would be much appreciated.
  14. On behalf of Brady, just to clear up the record, the compression test was conducted twice, once a issue was found the whole process was repeated twice for just to verify its authenticity (snapon leakdown and compression tester)i just make note that anyone having anyexperience with gtr's will tell u the first cylinder to lean out is always number five, just a combination of ineffeciencies and intake maifold design , having a repeated and confirmed result the vehicle under instruction was simply put on the dyno just to check afr's down low and see if possible pump failure had occured or similar setup, a full run was not completed as found not to be safe but a extremely high figure was recorded (irrelivant). i can't explain why the leakdown was not the same as urs thru my error or faultly equipment, but i had no question it was accurate because i've tested more gtr's than most would've ever seen, being the owner of a gtr and doing my whole apprentiship on these vehicles specifically i stand by my evaluation of the gearbox aswell, mark also noted it was sloppy, consistent with high horsepower gtr's being launched, the gearbox itself is attached to a transfer case s/h i presume, just because the gearbox is recon doesnt mean the transfer case had been over hauled. i admit even doing a half load on the dyno wasnt appropriate but to support the leakdown test is usually backed up by a cause and avoid another engine. You were very correct in saying if you cant trust the dyno how are you to trust our equipment, the difference is one was known to be incorrect the other i can explain. Only one vehicle ever blew up wilst on the dyno any that was danny vahoumis's drift car, a boost spike problem on a standard engine and 300 odd rwkw, a fault of danny's, i dindnt chase payment a explained to the manager why, the other thing i will clarify is i left tilbrooks, for issues concerned with management pay and frustration at the continual problems which werent being addressed, i sincerely appologise to yourself for the circumstances which occured i will not however take the blame for the whole situation, many variables still exist which i frustratingly cannnot explain, also wish to appologise to any of the customers inconvenienced during my time there, tilbrooks have undergone many changes but since my departure management has been forced to change their setup rather than relying on myself to carry the place and i hope them all the best their a bunch of top lads. thanks Brady
  15. Like what you say here mate, it's exactly what i meant. You buy the car cos you like it for what it is not the attention you get from other ppl while driving it. Just want to clarify at the moment that i'm not calling ppl wankers if they get pulled over by the police when they haven't done anything wrong. Seems like alot of ppl have thought thats what i meant but it's not, like i said and other ppl have too, you get plenty of idiot cops out there but there are a few good ones out there and if you want to get rid of these dickheads you gota report em! Remember to get badge numbers ppl and then report them for misconduct or whatever they did.
  16. jeez you don get on here much do you, member since feb and two posts! so which skyline you getting gavin?
  17. can't you get a max speed check on a dyno?
  18. 23's not too bad, i'm gonna be 24 next month, hopefully have a big one even though i'm supposed to be working cos its on a weekday. probably celebrate it the weekend before.
  19. i'd come down but my car needs a dyno tune anyway
  20. spotted a P-plate gunmetal 32 driving to the city from down near paradise. loud up front, quiet at back :laughing-smiley-014:
  21. :laughing-smiley-014: i'm guessing you were joking
  22. :laughing-smiley-014: wonder how many replies we gona get in here with rolling smiley faces :laughing-smiley-014:
  23. hey, y not? if a cop gets enuf bad comments put in for him/her, they get put on notice or something like that. there is the occasional cop that also likes to admire a nice car and take note that we actually look after our rides aswell which is always a good thing to happen (unless your running late!)
  24. put some mods on your car like an exhaust and upgrade your stereo to drown it out, you'll soon forget about it.
