  1. I have no idea, it was bought for a stock R34GT-t , it's an Exceedy friction plate and it's an RDA kit so the rest will be at least OE quality, if you're looking for a clutch that you're gonna kick the shit out of I suggest doing a search on here , there'll be plenty of recomendations , all starting at round abouts the $1000 mark and keep counting , if you're looking for a good honest clutch kit at a bargain price you've found it.
  2. I've had a couple of WRXs both 00s and I found they were happiest on 15x50 but both were 2ltr and both had over 90000ks on them, the 08 will be the 2.5ltr and there were plenty of not nice things with that size in the early days particularly the US ones, give a search or two on REXNET theres heaps of good stuff on oils .
  3. I have been mighty tickled by the BMW 318iS , I drove one at the same dealers as the unmentionable Merc , an auto which would possibly be the most out of tune vehicle I have ever driven that was still actualy going and even so it gamely put on a small show of enthusiasm in S mode that surprised me and promised a possible little , in a small way , of go-er potential , now I realise there is little real biffo potential in this model but it was a nice tight feeling car in spite of that and enjoyable to drive in spite of it being not well. The dealer being a shyster of obviously low , indiscriminate and random breeding wanted to much to much $ by far so I have sourced a Nov build 97 in Sydney with one owner (whom I'm buying from) complete confirmed by BMW service records that show the servicing is beyond up to date -and nothing missed- only 61000ks- a bit of fruit -like sun roof ,-to provide the rain component in the climate control ,--before anyone else jumps in-- a 6 stacker ,always garaged etc. It is a manual even though I wanted an auto because of my back issues but there is a certain point of concession past which I cannot go and I think the much softer clutch pedal in the Beema will be the point of concession --and what appear to be excellent sports seats. Deposit has been paid and I fly to Sydney tomorrow to pick it up---and drive back--yeh FRAK THE BACK !
  4. Thanks for all the reply's guys , I actualy did a quick roady on a 99 C200 on the weekend---ah hem--dealer asking $13950.00 knew I was comming--changed the 3 to a 4 , nice , pm me to find out who this clown is , started it , power steer or the AC pump screamed like a stuck pig--and no it wasn't the belts, it settled down to a muffled painfull squealy grindin , orf we went , first bit nasty bump passenger side rear suspension hit the bump stop--so at least one rooted strut , split air con -ha- passenger side worked , drivers too -on cold- turn drivers to just air--hot hot hot , that coupled with the paint which looked so good under flourescents and looked like the possums had been having a party on it in sunlight had me runnin for the hills, performance--about what I expected. What was I thinking---

I've sold my R34GT-t and just got these pads which I had on back order so I'm selling at cost , brand new, still in packaging, full set front and rear only $110.00 including delivery (in Australia)-- these are the SS street ones.

  10. I think my car is sold that is I've accepted a rediculously small deposit with the balance being due in folding by 11am tomorrow , and whilst out and about came across a very nice low Ks Mercedes C200 , about which I know bugger all . Does anyone know anything about these cars and have a good , bad or ugly comment on them they'd care to share ? Any thoughts or info would be gratefully received. http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/result...e=25&Nne=15

  12. Thanks Mate, Forgot to mention in ad------------ + ALARM
  13. Bad health forces sale. Fastidious 61 year old owner is offering his beautifull R34GT-t at less cost than you could import and comply one for , if you are looking for a car that has never been modded out and is in in beautifull all round condition then this is the one you're looking for-- 206KWS ATF from the factory and fully serviced up to and including it's majour 100000k timing belt one , everything which has to be replaced and or serviced has been including things like the water pump which aren't even service items , the complete serviceing on this car has cost over $2500.00. with receipts to show for all parts and labour , not just a service sheet from one garage where they may or may not have actualy done the work. It also has all its Japanese log books and papers from new and I believe the 84400 klms is genuine. It has the following minimal mods . *Kingsprings OE ratio, 25mm lower than stock with all new OE struts. *Turbo back custom exhaust- 3" dump 3" high flow cat 3.5" follower and mid muffler and 3'5" in 3'5" out Varex muffler, hard- -wired, isolator switched. *Wheels / Rubber -- Stock OE 17 x 7.5 with Nexen 225 x 45 x 17 rubber 80% tread. -(can come with Enkei RPO3 17 x 8 --8.1 kg by negotiation) *ICE-- Pioneer Carriozera DD head unit with CD, cassette and minidisc, works realy well,it has been adapter plug installed ---so the OE wiring is mint and I'm guessing that any new pioneer will likely be plug and play with this adapter. * Drift airfilter * Tints *locknuts on wheels. Everything on this car works as it should to factory specification ---and-- no rattttttles bbbbbbumps or gggggrinds.and the paint and interior are in excellent condition. PRICE---$16490.00 Please pm or post to contact. The car is in Helensvale/Surfers Paradise QLD. Payment details--Cash or bank cheque on pick up or Bank direct deposit prior to pick up. Could also be interested in trading for a BMW 318iS Auto Coupe or an FTO with cash adjustment my way. **This ad cancels and supercedes any previously posted ad and price.**01/06/10
  14. Thanks very much for that it has clarified my previously uninformed thinking , I wondered when I bought an Rx7 FC how on earth it had got through compliance , it certainly wouldn't have passed a competent roadworthy , but after following this topic all becomes startlingly more clear. Just as a thought , how much would a good condition FTO with trip cost (approx) landed complied and registered ? I know there's as many models as fleas on a dog and that the last build was 98--I think--so a recomended on whatevermodel/year also would be good. Just an off the top is fine please don't spend heaps of time on this as I've still got to flog my R34 GT-t.
  15. Thanks mate--jeeeeeeeeeez why couldn't I find it it --stupid ole fart
  16. I would also consider a trade on an FTO in nice condition (+ some cash my way)
  17. Hi just tried to find the good ole FTOAustralia forum/ site and got a go nowhere do nothing sort of mess , anybody know whats going on with the site ?
  18. Are you downhill in Perth -some places are cheaper to send from rather than too ? i.e. Its cheaper to send a car too Melb from the GC than from Melb to the GC. BUMP
  19. Thanks for that you have PM.
  20. Thanks for that , just as a point of interest I wonder how much it is to ship to Perth --I'll find out what shipping is from the Gold Coast to the major capitals it'll give me a reason for another shamelessly gratuitous .BUMP
