  1. the d2 group buy is the perfect upgrade....complete, cheap and you will never need to upgrade again
  2. great idea to get the tips from John Boston, he knows the car backwards as well.
  3. I would certainly start with a commecial engine flush product. But having said that, I have cleaned old motors out with diesel (fuel) before. Just not to any car I liked.
  4. I wouldn't worry too much, the DBA catalogue is pretty unclear on the 94 gtr rotors so they just made a simple mistake.
  5. I have been on the lookout for one of those, it was a factory option. I've previously seen threads claiming the wiring is already in the car ready to plug in, maybe see if you can search back and find them.
  6. that would be much less funny if it wasn't so damn true....the club has been around for 10 years now! I seem to remember a lot of burgandy series 1 r33s getting around.
  7. we can particularly if you remove your front driveshaft. mine is out atm from a dyno day the other day....fun for skids
  8. I did....thread approved
  9. BTW I have mad mspaint skills. (I faked that pic if you didn't guess)
  10. issues with seals? only if you drift in the wrong neighbourhood
  11. hahah yep, the motor nissan *should* have put in these heavy girls
  12. did the mini have vacuum boosted brakes? if so, starting the engine created vacuum that sucked fluid into the system enough to allow you to bleed it
  13. ahh sorry I don't know the specifics of the turbo, it is small and garret bb core. and there is the rb30 bottom end like Andrew mentioned.
  14. here's mine from the SAU day last weekend. it also made 130kw.....at 3,000.
  15. secondhand? I'd try a WTB thread here on SAU, and contact anyone who has posted up that they are parting out a 4wd skyline/stagea lately
  16. you know, it would be a lot easier to suggest some cars if your profile included your location for sure these are great value these days
  17. welcome back....I thought the nick was familiar
  18. definately the easiest fix is a second hand replacement (I assume the uni joint is the issue). 32, 33, 34 anything will fit. If you want to reco what you have, a decent driveshaft place cat remove and replace the uni, the factory one is not rebuildable. When I had my (tailshaft) uni replaced, they cut and welded on a new one which was rebuildable (held by circlips, not pressed in)
  19. mine was very close, even more so because the turbo has a heat sheild; however the stagea factory strut brace does sit very high. I could see a highmount turbo fouling a strut brace pretty easily.
  20. cool pic Joel. this was my result I love how early the car makes full boost.... 180kw at 3,800rpm
  21. I put mine on the dyno at the SAU/Unigroup day on the weekend
  22. I'm surprised by that statement, maybe the budgets are bigger in Victoria. I reckon more track GTRs are running these brake kits which are substantially cheaper and have great results. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/413182-big-brake-group-buy/ The other common option is various big brembo kits, the 356mm FPV kits in particular are excellend value. Not to say there is anything wrong with the alcon kits, just that you can acheive the same result spending far less money
  23. Thanks for putting the day together Sean, Eric and the rest of the committee. And thanks to Mark and Yavuz for their always professional day
  24. we all just have crushed sills mate the car still works the same
  25. thanks mate thanks mate, that is the kind of really simple and obvious ideas that really shit you when you've never thought of them I know how I'll be installing upper arms from now one, on my car they are an absolute bastard
