  1. Oh yeah, i forgot about my AE112R turbo corolla, that's 4 T's!
  2. yeah i've basically got a Stagea, Skyline and Chaser at the moment. my brother is overseas and i'm taking care of his other cars. would be good if i could afford to own all 3
  3. i think he means the lights are different, as in the indicator and driving lights.
  4. the arse of that silver one looks familiar.... oh wait, it's identical to mine!
  5. my member gallery is still not existing
  6. i'm going to have to wait for DVD for this one, i've never got time for movies anymore
  7. there are maximum weights you can and can't tow, depending on if the trailer has brake assistance or not, and also the weight of the tow car. it doesn't have anything to do with the car being a stagea or not
  8. yeah sure, if you want to meet me at my work again around 12 tomorrow, or any day you can get into civic, i'll bring the 2 better ones in for you.
  9. i have my stock stagea rims, 16", but the rubber is pretty bad on 2 of them, and i don't think the other 2 would pass inspection
  10. what SAU cruise?
  11. that's the main reason i'm not getting a bigger bodykit on my car. at the moment i have about 10mm clearance if that on standard gutters.
  12. yeah i agree, keep it SAU. nothing against other clubs but it'd be good to keep it in the 'family' i'll have my new turbo then so i'll be able to break it in, hehehe
  13. Wheel bearings hub seals: 40323 - 33P55 front bearing assembly: 40210 - 05U00 rear bearing assembly: 43210 - AA100 the rear assembly is more than just the bearing, it has a mounting bracket with 4 bolt holes as well.
  14. Ok gyus, here comes part numbers. now don't hold me to it but i might have them around the wrong way. hub seals: 40323 - 33P55: you'll need these when replacing bearings front bearing assembly: 40210 - 05U00 rear bearing assembly: 43210 - AA100 the rear assembly is more than just the bearing, it has a mounting bracket with 4 bolt holes as well. i'll post this in the parts list sticky as well
  15. oooo, i can't wait for my gearbox and powerfc to go in and start saving fuel. it's all sitting in my garage waiting to my wallet to repair itself from my suspension
  16. i'm actually made of sugar, so yes i melt in the rain. no, i park in a dirt carpark at work, so i'm not about to get on the ground underneath my car.
  17. just so you know, they're from an R33 GTSt, not special stagea ones. that should make it easier to find part numbers.
  18. i paid about $340 for camber arms, and then about $240 for the upper arms, i can't remember the name he gave the upper ones. they're high quality ones, my mech wouldn't put anything less in it. if i wanted cheap ones he said to go do it myself. i'll get the brand of them tonight, he kept the box they came in and it's raining outside so i don't really want to get under the car atm. What i gathered from the more expensive ones is quality in construction, and durability. bearings in the joints are a big issue, if they're shitty ones they'll break down relatively soon. when you start putting more adjustable joints into suspension you need to increase the quality of the parts so they don't become the weakest link in your suspension setup
  19. a camber kit is just a set of bushes with an off-center hole in the middle that you can rotate inside the camber arm joint to adjust it in and out a few mm. an adjustable camber arm replaces the standard arm to allow much greater adjustability
  20. i've been averaging 16/17L per 100, then a few weeks ago when i last had my car, i had a freakish 13.4L/100km. i have no idea where it came from, but i'll see if i can do it again
  21. so if you had say, converted your auto S1 to manual, it wouldn't really matter?
  22. My R33 had a similar problem, but i never found it out. could be a faulty sensor inside the car to detect the temp, and as such reverts to default 18 is cold, 32 is hot? i thought this might be the case as my temp sensor for inside the car was broken whens someone ripped the dash apart to steal my stereo.
  23. Got my car back, man it drives straight now. i've always had it pull to the left no matter what my suspension mech does to drive it straight. turns out because the wheel bearings were tired it was pulling to one side. my left front and left rear were shot, and the front right was rusted together. i have the part numbers for the bearings, but i'm too tired to get them from the back of my car. my rear camebr is now set around -0.4 degrees, rather than the -2.5 it was previous. they're just R33 GTSt custom camber arms, i can get the brand but i'm sure as long as you get a good set they'll do the job. so no more squeeky wheel bearings, no more bad camber. handles like a dream now. pics coming soon.
  24. i see that car at the melba shops up the road from me all the time, i think it either lives or works in that area.
