  1. umm you can't change your tyre if you get a flat? my suggestion....get a set of metric an imperial impact sockets. bash the ones that just fit on hard, then undo it. throw the lock nut in the bin and repeat 19 times. put normal wheel nuts on, or locknuts you have a key for. or just throw your spare tyre and jack out. no point lugging it around.
  2. OMG benm has an impostor! I would start by looking for a boost leak, especially if it is not idling properly. there are lots of vacuum hoses and a single split could cause an issue.
  3. I appreciate the offer, pm sent.
  4. so WTF is an MA09ERT? I have one downstairs?
  5. you replaced the rack....did you try replacing the pump? sounds like it is dying and pushing variable amounts of pressure
  6. are you certain you are checking for flow at the right fuel hose? you need the one that does not connect to the fuel pressure regulator, ie the one with the filter in it. where are you disconnecting the fuel hose to check?
  7. when you say knonck...do you mean on the powerFC or a regular noise from the engine directly? If its the former just get it to a workshop, if its the latter start saving
  8. some ill judged posts removed. please keep this thread sensible. and while on the topic, while I'm not suggesting the driver is covering himself in glory now, remember he was just as innocent in the accident.
  9. you mean this sivlia??
  10. mine snapped due to an oil pressure problem. you would expect lots of other things to fail first but that wasn't the case this time.
  11. yeah that's Brian's trailer, he towed the red r32 gtr down on it.
  12. looks pretty healthy to me for a 100000klm car. Missfire could be a lot of things, but most of all it is a chance to bargain the price down. whatever it is, it is probably not expensive or internal.
  13. yeah a great piece of road, very quick a hillclimb, it is up to 3 lanes wide in places. unfortunately I can't be there, got my weekends wrong, this clashes with the state champs at eastern creek. good luck aza!
  14. yeah mate, it was and by a long way, about 1 sec I guess the new track is quicker and those tyres are great. sid....put your bloody name in your profile or I will call you speedwhore for ever! Almost certainly just a bad batch of fuel, even so I would get yavuz to take a little timing out of the midrange for safety. Octane booster does very little....each bottle is 0.1 of an octane rating, so 1 bottle in a tank of 98 only gives you 98.1.....
  15. F stands for f**ked if I know. I was in that one. I can see Street, Club and Open in the rules: http://www.island.net.au/~rdavies/renew/2011%20Lap%20Battle%20Championship%20Regs%20-%20final%20draft.doc Congrats on your time today, you were damn quick and I wish I could catch you lol
  16. I'm scared of you liz. And you are scared of chinese toilets. where will this end?
  17. yes but not in the standard location, i run a remote filter and oil cooler
  18. yeah sounds right...I had to run a seperate earth on mine too. most sandwich plates run an o-ring to the block so they are not earthed.
  19. your stagea has hicas? my s1 does not? but yes I guess any lock bar will work, they are all around the same size, you adjust the tie rod length to suit.
  20. but...i learned the other day that ANDRA/WSID do not follow the same standards....so check that as well
  21. I run the K-sport/d2/g4 on my race car when regs allow, and also have them on my rb30 stagea. they are excellent for the price, and very much proven.
  22. yeah Duncan the track seems faster to me. I went 1sec quicker than I have before although I was on better tyres too (federals). The exit of 5 is larger, and they have fixed some of the ripple strips too.
  23. ahh, in that case, thanks for the loan of the compressor Jimmy
  24. yeah that was me, good to meet you perhaps in different circumstances next time the 300zx was not being driver by the owner, or Dan, and apparently had a braking issue (like others don't see how you could get it so wrong any other way, so it makes sense). Hell of an unlucky incident, if Eric and Reece had not have been there he would have absolutely drilled the wall....the accident took place 10m+ off the race track on the pit entry road. Other than that, I hope everyone had a good day out. The renew boys took out the overall win with a 1.04.986 in an rotary powered evo 9 Very quick time for any tin top, well done. Brad yes I do think the track is a little quicker, they have tidied up the top of the hill and rebuilt ripple strips at 3, 5, 11 which is all good
  25. the most common headlight failure on the r32 is the switch itself failing. maybe contact fatz he is near springwood and probably has spares you can swap to try
