  1. actually, don't even bother answering and save yourself alot of embarassment
  2. lol, here we go again...........what station are you based at HottFuzz?
  3. this thread is plain lunacy
  4. yeah very nice Jarrad.........bit like the mosquito screams of a high revving F1..... but still love the deep rumble of the R8 more.
  5. Mr Hall is at Outlaw Speed Shop these days. err.........me thinks you'll be waiting awhile
  6. yeah doesn't sound terrible Steve but still hard to get the sound of the R8 out of my head.......sweetest sound I've heard in ages!
  7. haha, lol Heslo, I spotted him as well this arvo in my neighbour's back yard with a 5 litre bottle of poison
  8. all the best with the result tomorrow Amanda.....no point in stressing out until you hear from the Doc

    hmm, so you reckon the eibach springs are the way to go again. Surely there are springs out there that are almost as good and would meet my needs and avail sooner. lol, steve.........I wish I did have money to throw around

    yeah I've tried Steve Cramp........he's very good but a tad expensive

    yeah bud I do. Can you recommend anyone that does a decent pair of springs for what I'm after?
  12. I've still got a low km pair of R34 GTR V-Spec turbos in the shed that I may let go for $650 each otherwise you'll pay at least double that for after market ones.

    I think Fabs32 has pretty much got the message now about the best way to go in relation to his original question, so back to my problem Having a true PSS9 kit with 400lbs (7kg) Fronts & 455lbs (8kg) Rears........I'm thinking of changing the rears to approx 5 or 6 kgs.....any ideas? SK wants $225 pair springs with a very long wait..........I'm sure I could get something quicker and maybe cheaper from somwhere to suit the Bilstein setup.
  14. far out Steve, that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand to attention...............and I haven't even got any, lol

    ok, well that makes more sense then.......so in actual fact you answered your own original question about my price of $2200.........my springs are stamped "Bilstein" but probably came out of the Eibach factory in Europe as well. So I'm assuming your first springs were Whiteline or similar? EDIT: Bilsteins are twice the price of the Jap stuff.........and twice the shock, lol

    no arguement there pal, but you asked a question (see above).............and now you have an answer, lol
  19. do a search on what "truth in sentencing" is all about. Ask any cop about the frustrations of finding a crook, risking his life in some cases to capture him, then get him to court where a Supreme or High Court Justice gives him a little slap with a fraction of a precedent sentence which he'll serve less than half the time..........all in the name of rehabilitation.

    Steve, you could even go softer since your car is 90% street use. Probably even 6 or 7 Front & 5 or 6 Rear...............wouldn't go any softer just in case you wanted to do track work. Been speaking alot to SK, his son Matt and Poly Air Springs in NSW lately.......they are all experts when it comes to spring rates and all agree with the above info as long as you stiffen up the sway bars. Japs, according to Matt, tend to favour the very hard coilover and don't worry about their sway bars. He says it may have something to do with their very narrow carports, garages & driveways, lol
  21. You're kidding aren't you?!
  22. yeah but the R35 has at least 200kg more weight which is why I referred to it as a 300ZX (shape wise), but overweight
  23. Ben's dog has dentures

    not for a GTR bud.........try double that I spoke to Gary & his son Matt twice this week already and that price I quoted is probably on the light side
  25. No flaming from me....you know my thoughts on the R35......great technology jammed into an overweight 300ZX. I'd love an R8.........shame they're twice the price though.
