  1. Being a tad more realistic. Good tool kit, jack, and stands. $500 should easy cover it. Not knowing what the car is but assuming its a turbo... Stereo, at least a head-deck if the orginal is a bit RS. But I could EASY spend $10k on a car stereo and justify the cost. Brakes as mentioned, just the normal if the lines are fine just the fliud pads etc. Say a good $1.5-2k there if your paying for labour. Maybe $1k if your lucky getting stuff on the cheap and do the stuff yourself. Suspension. Probably worth while doing all bushes to be safe anyway, new suspension coils and shocks, sway bars, blah blah blah then install and a proper wheel alinement... $2-3k quite easy. Then with the $50-400 you have left depending on how much you spent on your head deck... You could get a better filter, and or a bleed valve, and maybe someones cheap 2nd hand exaust, maybe... You need to learn how to drive the wheels off the car before getting more power, if you dont know the car more power is pointless.
  2. First thing, you need to get the ECU re-tuned. I think it will seriously make another improvement, and be well worth the money. That or get another chip that can be tuned. Whatever, just do it. Reason for saying that. My graph is very very similar to yours (same power as well), just I dont have cams, or an RB25 turbo, or a FMIC. I think with some more tuning, that will be a very smartly modded car, with very good power for the mods. Either way, thats a pretty good gain for a fairly low outset of money. Just do something with the ECU.
  3. How about ring PWR or something??? Surely they should have some specs?
  4. LoL yeah, the wollies voucher runs out at 100L! Ahahaha
  5. Id go one better, if we do this Autosalon thing, get them for that! Then we could sell the buggers for $40 and people would still think its a bargin! HAHA!
  6. Is yours broken? Anyway I hear november was a much better month that year... I do think it would be a good idea to try and get the sponsours involved this time. Might be able to increase the number of sales that way too. And if I could be so bold, try and make a profit for the club when selling them to non club members. Giving them even more incentive to join up.
  7. That and it (polished) looks real. Not fake or tacky (chrome).
  8. Roy needs to loose weight?
  9. Point is the difference should be pretty accurate even if the actual weight isnt.
  10. Hasnt justdave gone all hollywood on us??? Either way Muds last year were awesome. Only problem was choosing the best pics!
  11. Your not crazy competitive are you??? Im with mud, come try day, I wouldnt mind being there.
  12. Good stuff with the VL hope it goes. Shame as well not instead of. And Im glad I met you off boostcruising not here, otherwise Id feel very hurt by that comment I hope your not going to dissappear on us now. And farewell cruise for the skyline???
  13. Already told you about the weight issue Roy, start exercising that and you can change your drive shaft to a 1 peice, that will shave some weight. But bearings, syncros. The quotes I got, with the 'warrenty' they offered, I couldnt justify the money of fixing it. I do plan on going an RB30 at some stage tho, so that did infulence my decision. Do it once and do it properly.
  14. Hehe, for the next 12months your going to be driving to work and back only at 40kmh
  15. But a little bird told me you are a wanker Col, and Mud said no wankers (JOKES!) Your car for the cover! Anyway, down for a yes for buying. I was in last years *struts*
  16. Hey Erin... So when is Andrew going to get rid of the VL?
  17. For my cefiro (not the same but hey) they quoted me $2500ish all installed and set up, they being fulcrum. I then spoke to SK. I went the bilstein option.
  18. I am an estimator, and I resent that comment... Anyway, IF I have my car back by then, I might come, see whats doing. No dyno for me tho, $45 to tell me how much power I dont have, better of paying off the car. Good fun to watch for a bit tho.
  19. Weds Mr Eps, the week is halfway gone!
  20. N13... thats like my mums shitbox one... Very sad day Erin. That car was tops, one of the earliest R33s round the place. Whoevers buying it sure as hell got one of the best R33s going about. Out of interest tho, how close did you get to the asking price?
  21. 50 is heaps? Good luck hey. Id put money on there being more Porka turbos in each state, and they are not common cars. Common compaired to a piazza turbo tho
  22. Hi Robbie. Yes I have told him, ages ago in a friendly jokingly manner. This however was before the fraud stuff. Thanks. Just glad you havent followed in his footsteps.
