  1. ah damn... i posted too soon. i just read in my notes that gauge pressure measures pressure differences from the atmosphere, so i was right. thanks anyways everyone
  2. hey, when people refer to how much boost they're running in a car, for example 7psi in a stock skyline.. is this a relative pressure reading? it cant be absolute right? atmospheric pressure is 101.325kN/m^2 which is just about equal to 1 bar... so if it were absolute that means the turbo would be working backwards (for cars running less than 1 bar)... right? which is nonsense obviously. does a reading of 7psi mean 7 + atmospheric? thanks
  3. sexy car man. seen it around. are u willing to swap, dude?
  4. I'm with him. What's the point of doubling?
  5. anyone have a pic of tinted on a black 33?
  6. ey SK. had a slight problem with one of my parts (specifically the rear sway bar), been trying to PM you but ur inbox is full. Will try again
  7. interested... noob question though, does this bolt straight on? got a hks cat back, stock cat (not for long) and stock turbo (probably a bit longer)
  8. group buy maybe? find out how much it would cost to make
  9. link? wouldnt mind seein those.
  10. Yeah that's my main hesitation really. would it be a clash of styles? let's say the whole thing will cost about 3.5k with genuine bar and bonnet, still think getting r34 is better?
  11. thanks for the interest guys, all pms replied to, all parts sold.
  12. Hey everyone, just after some opinions on this conversion. anyone seen one in the flesh? are there many around? post pics if you have them
  13. Hey SK, So all those suspension specialists you listed on the first page, I'm assuming they all have your tick of approval? Got a few quotes which range quite a bit so wondering what the difference is between them.
  14. hmm. did u find out about what they do to keep structural integrity? are there supports/braces etc added? I am interested, but i'm a bit worried about leaks etc.. and i kinda wanted it to open inside like a factory roof. plus it is quite a bit of money. i also have an alarm sitting here which needs installing, so if the price is right i could get them both done i guess.
  15. Hey mate. did you get a price on the Hollandia 700 too? I kinda want it to open inside the roof like a factory sunroof.
  16. hey ppl, my cousins just purchased a 2way, so he's selling his r32 locked diff. its still on the car so no pics, but it works well. $80 pick up only located past roxy. also 20mm vented wide body guards for r32 unpainted brand new, $200
  17. hey thanks for all the replies... unfortunately didn't read them all in time I ended up using some DOT 3 penrite with a dry boiling point of 275 degrees celcius. Pretty damn high if you ask me considering the dot standards.. Dry Boiling Point Wet Boiling Point DOT 3 205°C (401°F) 140°C (284°F) DOT 4 230°C (446°F) 155°C (311°F) DOT 5 260°C (500°F) 180°C (356°F) DOT 5.1 270°C (518°F) 191°C (375°F)
  18. Hey Gary, Did you get my pm regarding my shockers?
  19. Hey people, Installing some new slotted rotors + pads tomorrow so I'm gonna get my brake fluid flushed and refilled while i'm at it. The reserve says to use only DOT 3 fluid. So is it not safe to use DOT 4 or 5.1 which are supposedly better?
  20. so no one knows why braided lines won't make a difference on an R33?
  21. i cleaned my engine bay with the degreaser and highpressure water both from the carwash. didn't really do all that much, but the water had no adverse affects at all. i've got a series 2 though, so starter motor is down with the ecu (right?), and i covered the snorkle and a few other little bits with plastic bags. next time i might try a canned degreaser.
