  1. Bosch also make cheap regs. If you want the best you can't go past a Sard. T.
  2. A 1/4 toluene is even more than I'd like... 1/10 to 1/5 is enough on 98. Should pump you over 100. T.
  3. it's for an rb20/25det. my server provider has been up and down like a whore's panties. T.
  4. I'd be reticient to put shithouse tyres on the front. On the back, yeah because you guys are just gunna burn them up anyway. I ended up with shithouse 245/45/17 at the rears for $155??? Hankook silica? Not too good IMO but I had two nails in the back so... I'm after a set of 255/40/17 but I think I'll end up with Nankang NK2 as they seem to get high marks from the D1 teams (for the wrong reason I would imagine). T.
  5. I'm kidding about the front mounts and shit. They got defected for the usual things including dangerous suspension, bad seatbelts, unsafe LPG installs. But also there were some false Centrelink dole cheats + sort immigration issues (but this is almost expected from Sydney cabbies is it not?). T.
  6. I just saw on the news about a bunch of cabs being defected. Bald tyres, bad suspension, emissions, blow off valves, front mounts, beaded seat covers. And I felt a sense of deja vu. "Welcome to the party pal!!!" *apologies to Bruce Willis T.
  7. Here's a pic: http://www.nitroware.net/~tony/jap_dump.jpg Came off my car which was straight off the ship. mild steel. Pickup Syd. Bolts to standard or a/m front pipe. T.
  8. Cars are NEVER 'investments'. I think it's short sighted to say... "I'll buy an S15 as it's a better long term investment". Gimme a break. Go buy a house if you want to invest. You buy a newer, more expensive car, you lose more money on resale. The bottom line is that the s13/14/15 or r32/33/34 are all COMMON cheap RWD cars. They have no collectability, they're all reasonable expensive to run, maintain and they'll all tank to some degree on resale IF you can find a buyer. I enjoy it for what it is - a fast, RWD car. Poor resale means that I can afford a car like this. It's all about bang for buck and IMO the Skyline has it. If you want something rare to a degree, get a V-Spec GT-R. T.
  9. An r33 GTS traded for $400 AUD??? You sure you don't mean 300,000 yen? My '95 came with 69,000 - now it has 77,000 km. Not for want of trying. I've had maybe out of the ordinary dramas with this car let's just say... T.
  10. Hey can one of you guys remove the rear bar from my car? It's in Homebush right now. It's a 400r rear end + Bomex spats. How da hell do you get it orff??? T.
  11. There were basically two big brands, nismo and "c's". "C's" is not blue. Could be a custom kit. T.
  12. It's probably cheaper having the wheels sent over by themselves then fitting them with tyres here. They are roughly $800 apiece in 17-18" sizes. T.
  13. It's low as fark and it hits everything. T.
  14. What size is it for $130? I really don't give a shit about backs. As long as they smoke up good. But I want 255/40/17. Preferably even 265/275 even. T.
  15. You got the money? They're damn expensive. T.
  16. The wide offset TE37 alloys have more curved spokes. 17 x 9 18 x 9 etc. T.
  17. Last time I looked at this it was $2,000+ for the '97 GT-R Xenons. T.
  18. Steve, This is what I'm doing (or done!) right now. OS Giken exhaust cam gear (dialed up to a few degrees retard). Standard cams. Later I'll most like go Tomei/HKS in./ex. cams + ex. cam gear. Discard the in. gear and old OS Giken cam. T.
  19. If you have a lightweight carbon bonnet you pretty much need pins to hold it down. The standard catch is not enough. T.
  20. Either Frankie Lie, Gavin Cato or Mark Pakula. T.
  21. http://www.jpmphoto.com.au/Galleries/off_s...0703JPM_005.htm http://www.jpmphoto.com.au/Galleries/off_s...0703JPM_006.htm http://www.jpmphoto.com.au/Galleries/off_s...0703JPM_007.htm T.
  22. It has to be off if the car is running AND the screen is viewable from the drivers seat. There's no law applicable if the driver cannot see the screen. T.
  23. $6,000 is MORE than reasonable. People want everything for nothing and get all their pricing info from the cheapest, dodgiest places around and expect everyone to match. T.
  24. Maybe we need to set up a TV there as well. T.
