  1. and I'll think you'll find the 34 isn't as chunky as you think.....shorter and lighter than a 33 actually
  2. Dave, grab my number from my profile and ring me if you find it please
  3. has anybody been able to find the 1991 or 1992 bathurst on Video or DVD yet..........Andrew (Nightcrawler) any luck bud?
  4. absolutely Luke.......the gears will bring the power back down to more useable rpm level and possibly widen the power band. I definitely would never have cams without the adj gears. shoot Ryan ISC a PM for price
  5. yeah spot on Ryan, even Shaun from Boostworx will tell you that 1 psi more boost can in some cases do what cams can do and its free. As you say, for a big HP ie. drag car (which I'd love to build), cams are a must.
  6. yeah that was me Nick.....hope I was behaving
  7. thanks bud, I'm looking at someone near you tomorrow so take them to work with you and I'll pick them up in the morning sometime if possible
  8. yeah both Ryans make very good point here. Although my favourite is the 32GTR, occasionally you see a nice clean 33 like Ryanrb25's (I think I told you that on the boards a long time ago Ryan). There are obviously alot more 33's on the road than the other 2 and too often they are ruined by wrong kits so it's a pleasant surprise every now and then to see a tuff one like Ryan's.............IMO they stand out alot more than ones that have been turned into a Concorde airplanes.
  9. Interesting that the 34 looks like the 32's big brother (wedge shape) and the 35 looks like the 33's big brother (rounder shape) I'd like to get that Top Gear vid on DVD if anyone has it, please PM me.
  10. don't forget guys that at this time of year and at that time of the morning, most hills roads have a sheet of ice on them
  11. Thanks for the info guys, that's great......Ryan, I'll be sending you a PM shortly. Dale, that's exactly the info I've been looking for. I'ts clear on the graphs that even though you're not gaining a huge amount of power, you are definitely making it earlier, particularly between 100 to 160 kph (in top gear I assume). The more I've been looking into it for 26DETT's (can't really comment on others), the more I feel that adj gears will make more of difference on the street than cams and definitely more useable power. I realize there are other engines out there that work better with cams on the street but even Martin Donan agrees (after a lot of testing on the dyno) that the $1000 for a couple of kw just isn't worth it.
  12. yeah thanks for that guys. I probably didn't come across clear enough though......I'm wondering whether you guys played with both gears or just the exhaust (which many of you do), whether you are retarding or advancing the gears and by how much. I know SK in NSW tends to retard the exhaust gear only, by about 4 degrees (which is 2 marks on the gears) as a starting point and I was wondering if that is the norm for the rest of you.
  13. ohh no!! Were they really?
  14. Funny you mentioned them, I might shoot down to Aussie Dyno now & catch up with John Keen who I haven't seen in years then I was planning to catch up with Steve Cramp from Manta Racing who has some suspension for sale
  15. I want one of those please
  16. That's one of the nicest & cleanest Stags I've ever seen
  17. WANTED Late model R32 GTR V-Spec......must be reasonably good condition.......must be an Aussie delivered model PM with pics, details & price please
  18. very much so Damo!! Unfortunatley I couldn't edit my original post so I've deleted it instead and will post the new one with more info
  19. This topic has probably been discussed numerous times but I'm interested to know what people are dialling in their adjustable cam gears at, and with a brief outline on the running gear supporting their dial-in figures. Also if you have before & after dyno runs with & without the adjustable cam gears.
  20. just my opinion, but I reckon the 32GTR (as cheap as it is now) will go up in value over the years due to its iconic status and being the only true Godzilla not to mention that its the only car to ever be banned from the Bathurst because it was too good......obviously this will only apply to immaculate ones in original condition.
  21. I remember the impact of the 32GTR when it first came out and hit the streets of Panorama NSW......I've dreamed about that car ever since. I went for the 34GTR because it looked like the bigger brother of the 32, moreso than the 33's rounder style (although very nice too). Stevo, nice vid and would be even better if he got rid of that boat suspension and could keep up with the camera crew in the Falcodore, haha...........errr, sorry!
  22. I might be interested in a couple actually but would love to see and try them on if thats at all possible somehow. Is there an outlet anywhere that sells those (or similar) that I can go and try one on with the young fella....normally XLarge but it can vary with different brands
  23. hoooray......its about time my boys got up over the cows!! Nightcrawler's missus will be tearing up & down Hindley street tonight..........errr, I meant Queen st, Alberton
  24. errrr, no Kel.......thats reserved for Stevie
