  1. For the little extra power achieved I rather not either.. If I was at the limit and there was not mods left to attach to my car and I was really trying for those extra few Kw then maybe.. But for everyday driving not for me..
  2. just from my experience i wouldnt bother buying the expensive DBA's like i did unless your upgrading your dia. and caliper size its just not worth the money.. sure the pedal feel and stopping power was improved a little.. i just reckon the money should be out into a larger fit out.. if i was doing it again thats what i would do!!
  3. I'm using ar1m pads in the front with standard size dba 4000 xs rotors.. They dust more then I would like and still the rotors are not big enough.. If you feel you are going to be heavy on the brakes I would def up the size.. I've got the hpx on the back with slotted rotors
  4. Just letting ppl know there are shite loads of ikh22 iridium densos on eBay at the moment.. I got a set shipped for $70 god bless the exchange rate!!
  5. I do the jobs slower as I know it's an infinate list that will never end!! No point trying to rush to have so free time that's just silly talk!!
  6. Spotted this axis too old pac hwy south of berowra bout 1:30 pm mon arvo..
  7. no cruise control I was being very gracious on the pedal.. I have to say you can drive a better economy without cruise I used to do it in our maxima.. Yeah was a good weekend.. Was the wifes birthday the inlaws and her friends are up there.. Didn't quite get the same Economy on return trip was trying to race the clock to catch the F1 race..
  8. I'm interested in a rear one to start.
  9. ^^ might come next week!! When and where?? Spotted spoolin this morning on my way to work in frenchs forest
  10. jdmyard on ebay usually has them in stock.. i got my rears from him, RDA slotted if i remember correctly only 210 shipped. i know its not as cheap as those you were looking at but not too bad..
  11. For me I am getting it purely to lengthen the life of my turbo.. Don't care bout economy/power increase.. I'm much more worried boutthe cost when the turbo blows.. Which will come just hopefully not too soon!!! I say for $400 odd dollars it's a good investment over that under-engineered piece of crap Nissan call a dump pipe!!
  12. Just got 785kms from Sydney to Byron the other day.. Filled up at twin caltex heading north got to Byron fri night and then some on sat morning!! Was happy with that! Definately better then my around Sydney economy..
  13. reminds me of when a mate and i went for a jet ski we only had a single trailer and didnt want to drive 2 cars so we put one in the back of my old sigma wagon!! was the funniest shit ever!! didnt quite back it down that far however!! in regards to the insurance job yes dont do it.. and even if you were going to dont be silly enough to talk about it!! I had a small accident a few years back in my girlfriends car was so worried they were going to void it coz we were trying to sell it and it even had the carsales ad on the back window, it was no where near write off damage, but they went the about it another way thinking they would just offer us $5000 less market value i.e cost of repair($12000) and hope we would be happy since we were selling it anyway. my girlfriend goes off and says no way fix my car.. but paperwork had already been written we had to give them an earful but they finally came up with the extra $5000. so it was a loss to them for having to pay out the $17000. anyways back on track dont do it my premium already rose from moving house i dont need it going higher from your AQUA-STAG
  14. Was travelling with a gold arx this morning on way to work 5:30 ish From burns rd to forest way.. Anyone from here??
  15. Second time I have seen him.. I have to ask though it's looks way lower then mine and I struggle so much with bottoming out on speeds bumps, carparks etc. Does yours scrape alot??
  16. Our old maxima had $7k damage and it was a ti 2003 maxima it was written off.. We got 16k I'm not complaining though coz that's how I became a stagea owner!!!! It doesn't hav to be much damage they factor everything in like for yours the time involved to source parts and also there can also be the chance of structual damage that is undiscovered they would rather write it off in case a serious accident is caused later due to this then the insurance company can be liable.. They have so much money to them it's no loss over a few thousand bucks..
  17. Spotted spoolin.. Well I think it was coz of the blacked out lights.. In davidson today around 1:30 we were in our white cube!! Your car looks incredible.. I really need to get some rims..
  18. Good to see your ok.. Bad to see what happened to your car due to someone elses incompetence.. Hope everything else works out good for you!! Since that will surely be a write off are you gonna still be looking for an M35 as replacement?? Or something else??
  19. Spotted a silver autech M35 this arvo bout 3:10 heading down forestway... Just after monavale intersection.. Anyone from here??
  20. they look the goods! want to do but am worried about screwing them up!!
  21. this is how i live my life... and i have 2 black eyes to prove it back on topic the closer it gets to xmas the easier the excuse is!!
  22. ahh yes mine are gonski as well.. but they are however at the end on my current to do list on the stagea.. but part numbers would be great,, cheers
  23. i picked up a cheap A/F meter on ebay a while back incase this happens to me also.. hoping that is your problem though, its an easy fix you should find one very soon..
  24. Jdm yard on eBay sells the rears quite cheap I got rda slotted for 240 for the pair worth a look.. I am running standard size dba 4000 cross drilled and slotted on the front and they have even started to warp a little after 2 months no heavy driving.. So it may be worth a look at going larger I.e gtr and aftermarket upgrade.. Just shows you how underbraked they are!!
  25. i have a few things i would rather not say about beaurepairs (that is where you car went wasnt it??).. but thats just from a few of my experiences with them... what the hell i will say one thing.. i drop my car off for a wheel alignment (17" rim corolla, no camber bolts perfect fit without guard rolling for my simmons) they ring me saying the camber is all out of whack i say how can it be?? i go down there and my front left looks like this \\ and the right like this \\ im like wtf did you do?? they said you gotta buy a set of camber bolts to straighten it up!! i said show me where, i looked and told them to get the bolts they had aready installed and never touch my car again,,, rip off F%%ks trying to sell me a set after installing them already at wrong settings to make my car look crazy with positive on one side and neg on the other... Anyway back on topic.. I reckon it would fit only because with my car lowered even though i only have standard 17's there is bucketloads of width available, but yes when you raise it this disapears, and yes im pretty sure they have double wishbone F+R i was looking when doing my brake discs, Very GRAND TOURING!! MAKE EM FIT i want 9.5 wide too your my guinea pig!!
