lol @ BJ Pics and shit tyres comment. Calder Park will never be sold as development because it has thousands upon thousands of used tyres under it. Well thats what I heard on the grapevine of knowledge. Oh and all you privy skool guys fail. I went to Thornbury Darebin Secondary College. So bad that neither suburb wanted to lay sole claim to it hahahaha

^^^ I have no idea what you just said lol! It's a forum dude, not a text message, you can write full sentences

the thing with Nissan and Nismo racing is, they are partnered (sponsored) by Motul so of course they are going to be touting the stuff, not like they are going to "sticker" the car with another brand now are they? Just because it says Motul on the label doesn't automatically make it a better oil, look at their 4100, in the scheme of things it's a pretty average oil compared to the same price stuff from another company, it's a semi synth and not even comparable to their 300v. If Nismo where sponsored by Mobil or Shell then no doubt most people wouldn't have an issue running Mobil 1 or Shell Helix Ultra, hell the Helix Ultra is even used by the Ferarri F1 team so that should be more than good enough for a road or track driven Skyline of any breed... If you believe the marketing etc. Lambo use Agip Oil at their factory, I saw them pumping it out of drums into Gallardo's and Murciellago's on Mega Factories but that doesn't necessarily mean it's the be all and end all of oils. What Birds says is right, find an oil that suits your car and you and you'll be fine. I've used Motul 4100, 8100 and 300v and didn't notice a difference between the 8100 and 300v but from the 4100 it was a massive difference, I have also used Helix Ultra, ELF, Castrol Edge and currently using Mobil 1 that I got for $35 for 5L and the Mobil is doing fine, as did all the others. I used 5w30, 10w40, 5w50, 10w50, 15w40, 15w50 and the only noticeable difference is the thinner oils give you slightly better fuel economy. My Oil goes in the clean honey colour and comes out black as black but doesn't smell burnt and I don't lose pressure or oil and it gets changed out at about 10,000km intervals, sometimes more sometimes less. Haven't done a filter change in the last 2 though cos I can't get the bastard off! Really need to do that *note to self*

it they are removing the roof then it's not paintless dent removal. If it's not over market value then you should have the option to get it repaired i'm not sure how AAMI work on that sort of thing. How the hell does the panel beater know if it's close to market value or not? Unless he is using Glass guide liek the insurance companies do to get it but even then it's an estimate as you may have agreed value on your car insurance, I know I do.

I saw that samw Red 34 with the stripes over it on Burwood Rd in Hawthorn yesterday around 2pm. To be honest they look pretty bad. 2 fat white GT40 style stripes don't look good on a Skyline IMO.
-
you dont need to get panels replaced, paintless dent removal will get them all out except for body kits, wings and other non metal parts. 21K you are not going to be written off. My wifes Mirage was only an 18 thousand dollar car (on road with a few extras) and it was 2 months old and it never got written off, they repaired it with paintless dent removal and it looked like new again, you would never have known it was hail damaged. Get an assessor to look at it and ask them if the option of pantless dent removal is there, I would be surprised if it wasn't what they were going to do as my wifes car was insured with AAMI too.
-
does anyone that is getting their cars written off have salvage rights on their policy? I am thankful that I do so if ever something like this happens to me I get to keep the car for no cost to me. LSV for the WIN!

he's right, the ethanol in the fuel helps to burn the fuel better in the combustion chamber, more burn = bigger bang = more power = greater fuel consumption

hey Monkey, looks like your mate has been using that for curls or something hahaha!! that thing is huge!

GTR was under carport as was wife's new Dualis, we learned the hard way back in 2003 when the 100 year storm hit the Eastern suburbs and there where cars floating down the FWY etc, Burke Road was like a river torrent in the bosses GTiR driving up it was like you were in a jetski with massive rooster tails on each side of the car. Anyway, that time her 2 month old Mirage got destroyed but they fixed it via insurance with paintless dent removal. Came up brand spankers again. Lucky we didn't get bad hail in Melton, just pea to 5c piece sized. Lots of rain though, backyard was flooded and the bloodey SHAMWOW did fark all at soaking up the water!! Here's the Backyard and the laswt one is the water from the back going down the drive to the front, bloody Tuscan Topping and clay soil means no drainage!!

white M35 STAG on Power St in Hawthorn tonight at about 6:10pm I was driving opposite direction in silver 32. Also spotted white 33 GTST on Swan St going towards tunnel turnoff

Dillema? Which Skyline To Choose
BeEnAr replied to Mike Citizen's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
LOL!!! That's some funny shit right there! Define "real-world" for us??? Go the 32R dude, the interior is fine and the seats are way more supportive (although they are a bitch on a long 4hr+ drive), LOTS more parts available for an R than a 34 GTT too -
my money's on atmo BOV with unburnt fuel in exhaust, work everytime

How Much Should A Clutch Replacement Cost?
BeEnAr replied to RuskyGT's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Extreme organic is okay but it will shudder like a bitch, make sure it's sprung centre -
agreed. Some people think because they see someone fall off and are on a bike then they for some reason deserve more sympathy. Not me! If they are acting like tools then they deserve what's coming to them, same goes for a person in the same situation in a car. And I have no sympathy for any bike rider that gets on a bike in anything less than kevlar jeans or proper bike riding gear (read leathers or soft shells) the amout of times I see douches riding around in shorts, t-shirts (or singlets) and runners is rediculous, sometimes they still wear their gloves! I know it can be hot out there some days but to me, getting on a bike without the right gear is like getting in a car and driving it with no seatbelt, sure you're fine if nothing happens but the minute you get hit or hit something, you're getting creamed! Should be a law against it IMO

AHAHHAAAA!!! Suffer in his jocks, Tadger!!

Had a good day although I got there a bit late driving over from Melton, I really want to see pics though. That TT sounded nice too -

BeEnAr replied to Bec's topic in Archived Events
I'm thinking I can swindle the boss into letting me out to play for a little while, maybe I drop her off at her mums house, muhahahahaha. I need to sign up, just keep putting it off and off and off etc. Won't be running on the Dyno though and no one give me shit about the peeling clear coat on the 32... It's getting respray soon. This will be a good day me thinks. Hope to see you all there -
I'd say it was me but I don't have SAU stickers, I have not seen another silver 32R in Melton, there is a gunmetal and a few other skylines though so maybe a visitor lol.

yeah $50-$80 AUD is like $5000 NZD that's a lot of TUI's hahahahahaa

booze bus marking (read Checkpoints in trapster) is a bit dodgy IMO, would make it way too easy for people to go out drinking then drive home with the app on missing the BB. Apart from that it is really good, I drove to Bendigo and back for work today and it picked up a radar about 3/4 of the way there. Was first cop car i've ever seen with no markings on one side (drivers) then on the other, full police markup!
