Pm me your address; I'll post some to you. I has a shite load of them.

Try to get alloy ones, some places will try to sell you plastic ones; they work; but they'll crack eventually...

Spotted a blue AR-X in Springwood today; couple of MTB's on the roof.

I know I've said it before, but Damn that looks great in red!

It's a good thing they did a neat job; overspray would make that look terrible...

Lol, well I get a different speed going in two different directions on the same piece of road; so anything's possible... Maybe if they bring the satellites a bit closer to the earth? They're miles too far away, IMO...

Mike Rann is a hateful bastard...

Oh noes! Does that mean I'm Like a Baws.

This is what I run; it gives around 3% error (100km/h indicated= 97km/h actual) against my GPS.

Yeah man, I'm going peripheral port! Lol, the stuff I have at the moment reminds me of a cheese grater; it's got to go!

Received my new sheet of plastic grille mesh today; the Black "Leb Mesh" just isn't doing it for me; the weave is too small. That, and I've decided to remove the centre spar from the grille opening. Link; http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180717963410

Nah, I used to have stupid Yokohamas that would flat spot overnight, and I'd be driving down the freeway trying to hang on to the wheel for the first 20km until they warmed up. Then they'd be fine. F**kin' Yoko; ruined the Beatles, and my car...

Looking forward to seeing these in the car. Nice find Chris.

Sorry, double post.

It's almost as if you're not actually listening to any of the people who use pressure washers here... I've been using them on my cars for years; no dents. NO DENTS! Has it occurred to you that it might be a hail damaged car, that he's trying to pass off as clumsiness? My daily was hail damaged a while ago; (for the 3rd time ) had LITERALLY hundreds of tiny dents you didn't really notice until you got up close. There was over $4000 worth of PDR (Paintless Dent Removal) required to repair it. You could be in for some heartache. Maybe have a PDR specialist look at it if you're not sure.

I'm pretty sure that's the unbelievably expensive Carbon Ceramic option ON EDGE is referring to. Wasn't the full set-up somewhere north of $60k? Everyone else seems to manange it for $20k to $40ish?

Wheels look fantastic mate The 3mm you wish to remove; is that because you you have zero clearance (wheel will turn but has a bees dick of clearance) or -3mm (caliper is fouling on wheel by 3mm)? You are going to want at least 3-5mm spoke to caliper clearance; just in case you catch a small stone; it'll trash the front of the caliper, and the back of your nice new wheels. You'll be safe with taking the script off the calipers, but I wouldn't be going further than 1mm unless you are prepared to pop the pistons out and actually measure the material thickness on the front face. Either that or look towards Pipster's find; 350Z/ Murano twin piston 325mm budget upgrade, the s2 G35's in the states run this same setup.

Might be worht having a look at this thread in the V35 section; http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/372826-my-v35s-build-with-before-after-dyno-runs/page__p__5946381__hl__osiris__fromsearch__1#entry5946381 Seems like he was very happy with the Osiris. I realise it's QLD based, but the tuner may be able to refer you somewhere. Have you got a bigger pic of the beast with it's new rims & ride height? Looks a bit more menacing now mate.

A couple of the Stagea boys have bought coilovers through him; said he was great to deal with.

Can you clarify something for me? I currently have a set of R33 GTSt calipers waiting to go together as a brake upgrade, and I was intending to use 32mm wide rotors. The rotor groove in the caliper is 34mm wide; ample room to take a 32mm rotor. How much wider is the rotor groove in an R32 GTR (non Brembo) caliper? I previously used R32 GTR (non Brembo) Calipers on 32mm wide rotors, and I'm sure the rotor recess was no wider than what I have currently. In fact; the caliper looks to be identical. It's always been my understanding that R32 GTR (non Brembo) and R33 GTSt front calipers were virtually identical; except paint colour. Keen to hear exactly what the differences are. Perhaps the difference is actually a (1mm) thicker backing plate on GTSt pads?

Woah; so he literally got no money back on a Clubsport wagon? Should've sent him my way... One of the guys I work with was arguing that his Sportwagon's boot was larger than the Stagea; It wasn't... Then he was boasting about the hinge being back from the edge of the hatch to reduce opening space; Yep, got that too... And the Stagea doesn't look like a Commodore.

Is the locking collar on the bottom fork mount done up tight? If this is loose, you'll hear a knock.

Interested in CB's; can you PM me some details (range, battery life)? Happy to come & pick up. Cheers, Dale.

Got a bit done today; New Plugs fitted, new passengers side rocker cover gasket, and an oil & fiter change. A little oil in the rear plug recesses on the passengers side; but not too bad. Also slipped some hardened washers under the Plenum bolts, as the Cap Heads had abraded the alloy a little. Recieved my pack of 8mm rivet clips from Hong Kong and replaced a bunch of cracked trim clips. Time to look at my Brake Upgrade again I think...

Fair enough then, I thought it was either full reset, or just wait for the ECU to see the AFM enough time to reset itself.
