Coudn't be trying hard enough. I once did Townsville to Canberra in 34 hours, by myself with the help of 15 cans of redbull and 5 packs of smokes. In a $150 1976 Honda Accord! Love to try the drive in a 34 though!

Jakes Performance in Mitchell are supposed to be really good, or Ming in Fyshwick. Neither are cheap however, and you want to book into Jakes well in advance usually.

In a '76 Honda Civic with a 1.2 City Turbo motor. No LSD and occasionally runnning up to 24psi. Fun car.

mine went too. Changed the headlight switch assembly, globes, cleaned all connections with electrical contact cleaner. It now still needs a couple of on/off flicks to come on.... buggered if I know!

I always get parts off Just Jap in Sydney. Fast, cheap, and they value repeat customers!!
-
Yeh true. no insurance payout, fines off the coppers. plus my cars a bitch to start, so probably wouldn't start anyway.

I'm leaning towards a mongoose system at the moment, 3 point, shock sensor, microwave sensor, wired into existing turbo timer for $720 installed. Extra $240 for remote start - would be a good party trick!

s4-5 13b turbo injectors just need the plugs changed. Fit straight into fuel rail, and are 550cc. Many people have got 200rwkw without changing injectors though

Cheers guys, I'll check them out.

Hey guys, can anyone recommend where to get an immobiliser/alarm installed (preferably very cheaply) in canberra? So far Strathfield are the cheapest with 3 point imm., remote central, siren etc @ $449 installed. Thanks>>>

Once and for all.. who iz da king of drift?
timbar32 replied to SeD's topic in Motorsport Discussion & Builds
just read in streetmachine (i only bought it once!!) about a guy with a 5l commodore who reckons he gets all the jap car drivers at drift meets telling him he is "the man"!! Maybe the aussie built commodore is the king of Drift!! Ha Ha Ha Ha ..........!! -
I've got the same prob at the moment. It is a hicas compatible boss kit, i've reset the computer with the wheels straight and the light still comes on sometimes. Turn the car off, then restart and the light is off again. Really starting to annoy me!
-
been told by quickfit that 9's on the rear and 8's up front is no prob. on a 32 gtst

Unless your car is 110% legal, don't bother cruising Civic/Braddon during summernats- you WILL get defected!!
-
if customs pull it up, you are up for duty. Don't send through post or you are more likely to get charged duty (I know a guy that works for customs). Nothing that you can do if they charge you. Either pay or they will sell your stuff at a customs auction.
-
have you checked all intercooler hoses etc. Maybe fuel pump/filter/s?? Just guessing really.

Question about petrol (probably pretty dumb)
timbar32 replied to r33skylinegtst's topic in General Automotive Discussion
whoa, you guys not living in canberra get cheap petrol! paid 106.9 for optimax the other day. p1r4t8r, BP Ultimate is cheaper than optimax, but you can only get it at kingston and phillip. I also think that you'll find that an extra $800 a year is not a lot to pay for Booost. (just over $2 a day- cut out a few ciggies or a can of coke or something!!!) -
sorry can't tell you his name but there is a guy who works out of queanbeyan (next door to canberra) who has engineered a few of my mates cars no hassels. 78 civic - 1.2 turbo, Vl - rb20det, TE Cortina - 5 litre. Check with a few performance shops and you'll probably find someone a bit closer to you.

Dont know about blitz timers, but my auto timer has a screw(i think) on the back to adjust how fast the time goes up. Check the back of it for other buttons, screws etc
-
Probally a stupid question ....
timbar32 replied to Mitchyr32's topic in General Automotive Discussion
A turbo timer is not going to stop a car from stalling!! Try turning your car off (with timer still running the engine), them put it in 5th and drop the clutch. I guarantee it still stalls!! -
anyone played xbox online yet??

Who own the black r32, rego "sinista" Dont know if its a canberra car or not, but very tough!
