Look into my eyes, look into my eyes, look into my eyes..... Yes the pretty picture shows a diversion plate. But also a pair of Apexi pod filters linked to some 80mm Z32 AFM's (Actually Bosch units) using the Apexi kit. And there is also a www address to greenline.

I received my stuff this week. It will turn up. Do not worry. It is almost always a timing issue with them.

Nah, just email the local distributor. I would guess (GUESS, mind) that $2k will have a new one in your hands. Ofcourse, Sydneykid is selling one for $1300.

Couple questions: How do you go for brake bias? What mu value do the Hawks have? I am working on a brake upgrade, but my present rims won't clear anything worthwhile. This is probably why I get annoyed at having to throw good money at a substandard set up. Something which, in turn further delays the proper fix I need.

The Quaife (for front diffs) design in fundamentally superior to that of the Cusco (or Nismo). Check the way it works and they manner in which it proportions torque & compare it to the Nismo diff. As I said, fundamentally superior.

I'll see if I can get some photos sometime soon. The thing has been in the shed neglected for a few weeks now so any short term surface finish will have been lost. It is a rear rotor, I presume it is on the outer face, but until I have a look I can't be sure. No brake ducts, DS2500 pads. Rotors aren't that old, but have done a few events. They aren't worn by any measure, although I will put some micrometers on them when I get a chance. Just sell me your F40's Roy & everything will be allright.

My car is an R32 so I can't get any 5000 series loving.

Check here for what the kit looks like & the www addy for greenline. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ai...te-t206016.html

Well in what will come as a massive surprise to people I just found another cracked DBA4000 rotor on my car. Fkn yay.

Greenline.

Just buy the Apexi kit that is for the R32 GT-R & is designed to fit the 80mm AFM's.

Yes I have one. They fit well, are made from proper stuff (not fibreglass) and look bling. Better than looking at fans/wires/radiators anyway. They may even work a bit.

Greenline sells the garage defend stuff.

Baron, maybe you can answer this: Is David Coulthard actually Kryton from the Red Dwarf tv series? Because I am convinced Bourdais is Rimmer.

Well I have a large wager on Bourdais being shown up as the blouse wearing sook that I know him to be. As for the Irishman Tim O'Glock - he never set the world on fire at Jordan, so dunno why he is suddenly a wanted man. Vettel - will see. Looks ok to date.

Sorry Roy, can't get excited about the Red Bull. My money is on Nakajima this year.

They were all sorts of colours. There is a thread for checking plate ID's using Nissan's Fast system. Here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ni...&start=1100

http://www.quaife.co.uk/Nissan-Skyline-GTR...TB-differential Best there is for a front diff.

It is not "an old JPS F1 car" It is Ayrton Senna's Lotus Renault. Only one of the most beautiful F1 cars ever raced, designed by the genius that was Gerard Ducarouge, built by one of the most famous names in motor racing history (Lotus) & driven by the greatest driver ever to have lived. None the less. Nice photos.

OK.

The best spot for it was where the kindly folk from Nissan put it in the first place, ie over the top of the radiator. You need a 100mm diameter pipe or the equivalent cross sectional area to do the job properly.

All R32 Gt-R's start with BNR32.

Yeah, that looks about right.

Do you reckon Clarkson could dumb the content down some more? I mean, I understand what he is on about when he says the motor has more torques, but there is no way in hell I could ever get across the whole concept of a Newton metre.
