  1. my mates silvia does this all the time but only when the aircon is on.
  2. S15!!!!
  3. im gonna do the VH45DE most likely, my parents both drive holden v8's and always have, so its just something about the sound of them that cant be beat. I REALLY wanted to put a GEN 3 LS1 in it but its too heavy and wouldnt be able to use force induction later down the track i also doubt it would fit but it was just always in the back of my mind.
  4. i have asked so many people what that little motor thing in the boot before and no one could ever give me an answer, thank you for solving my most unsolved mystery of my skyline, haha, not that it matters as it came disconnected cause my car came with an aftermarket exaust but i still wondered what it was.
  5. try some jap import wreckers and then get a mechanic to change it over.
  6. Just wanted to let u guys know that i spoke to an engineer today and his figures were different to the ones u got "ANDY32". Im also in brisbane the engineer told me: For Turbo Engine Displacement Multiply the cars weight by "4" Therefor for example an r33 GTR Weighing 1530kg's Could have a maximum displacement of 6120cc's And for atmo the weight is multiplyed by a factor of "4.82" Therefor for example an r33 GTR Weighing 1530kg's Could have a maximum displacement of 7374.6cc's This he read out of a book while i was on the phone to him. After a lengthy discussion my mechanic is researching the engine for me and i am almost definately going to go ahead with this conversion, and eventually after i have finacially recovered will add a "screw" type blower to it for some serious power.
  7. Bump
  8. i always refer to my car as my baby, and my gf gets really shitty and jealous. MEH!
  9. ummmm how did u come to the conclusion it would fit in the glovebox?? i tryed this and there was no way in hell that it would fit unless i removed the actualy glove box and custom made a piece of fiberglass to fit around the x box and fill the rest of the empty space.
  10. ive beat a hell of alot of manual vl commo's, my best friend and i actually had a proper standing start race and over approx 400 meters i beat him by 4 car lengths and also roll on my car shits all over it so slips would probably kill one.
  11. lsd's work to a point the allow a certain amount of slip, hence the name "limited slip", if u have one on grass and one on tar the one on the tar is still moving ur car but the on the grass is moving slightly faster, not sure how the skyline diff works but in commonwhores the amount of slip is controlled by springs kinda like a clutch, tuffer springs equals much less slip and the other way around as well.
  12. haha, mine is either my baby, or i now get darth vader casue of my new front bar.
  13. just a question while on the topic are both high and low beam sposed to be on when high beem is clicked on or only the highbeam lights and the normal ones turn off? if that makes sense?
  14. Still able to come, please!! and if possible one for my mate in his silvia, can pay as soon as u want the cash! dont need nemore then a week or 2 notice.
  15. 7grand clutch dump, if both wheels spin u have an lsd if only one spins u dont have an lsd.
  16. hmmm this sounds sweet, i think i might do some research into this.
  17. AFM = Air Flow Meter S-AFC = an apexi computer "Super Air Flow Controller" it intercepts the signals from the airflow meter and tricks ur computer into thinking it has either more or less air, givving u the ability to adjust how much fuel the computer gives ur car in return.
  18. they were his 2 options. r34 gtr or m3, u know which i told him tyo get but he liked the bimmer more, it drove smoother, ive driven it! oh my god what a car, but i must say i have never driven a 34 gtr but i creamed my dacks just sitting in one and revving it. haha. oh well.

    Redline Oil??

    cheers
  20. Neone in bris no where to get redline oil, i need to do my 100 000k service soon and i was gonna try some of this oil that everybody swears by. Cheers John
  21. bout 500 bucks, not totally sure yet though.
  22. it may not be bullshit, one of my very good friends is 17 and he has a brand new m3, half of which the money used to pay for the 160g beast was legitemetly earned by himself. I respect him for being able to do that. Im like greg i worked sinci grade 7 for my parents company, lasted year a bought a vl did it up and sold it for twice what i payed for it and as an end result had 10g's in the bank, my parents where nice enough to give me 6 so i could have a decent car, and i now have my line. They woudltn let me have a turbo charged first car not only due to insurance but they thought i would of killed myself and i know for a fact i would of. Im still only 17 and work my guts out for mods for my car but its worth it. Some people just have it a little easier, but dont be ashamed to say u have nice parents that were willing to buy u a car, its not a bad thing just dont bullshit about it.
  23. no clue, mines ecr33 and have hicas that doesnt work "apparently" and no abs.
