  1. Would the pads make noise when I'm not braking?
  2. Here ya go... 18 x 8 +30 - 350z track rims. Completely stock suspension... R34 GTR rims (18 x 9 +30) fits fine too. I don't think 9.5 +30 will have an issue. 19s will definately look better... Go with the RS with the standard single din cd player. Save yourself the headache of having to replace it when the intergrated stereo dies... To be honest I think the stock sound system isn't too bad. The bass is alot punchier and clearer then my 2010 Mazda 3...
  3. I just dont think its worth it. When I had new rims put on my Mazda 3 they offered Nitrogen for $10 a corner...what a rip...
  4. I don't know man...can the air con drainage make it THIS wet? And this is just from using the defogger intermittently...
  5. It rarely happens but tonight its been happening constantly. Only happens under power....hmmm
  6. Went for a drive tonight in the rain and noticed that when I accelerated a creaking/clicking sound can be heard from the front passenger area. I had a look under the wheel well but cannot find anything suspect. Thought it might be the CV boot but I thought that only clicked when you are in full wheel lock? any idea?
  7. Well save it cos I might need it LOL... Weired, its been raining and I've driving in the rain for an hour and the floor isn't damp yet... must be heater or air con issue...
  8. Can anyone step me through how to remove carpet so I can check for water intrusion? Also how to check if the AC drain pipe/roof drain pipes are clear? The moisture in the front passenger seat area seems to be directly over the dump pipe? The basically very warm there, and moist...
  9. Nitrogen doesn't do jack unless you're tracking it... http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/2694/is-it-better-to-fill-your-tires-with-nitrogen-instead-of-air
  10. Well according to that guy's advert, he spent 17k on the Haltech alone??? Not trying to say that he's got a crap setup but I would think for that kinda money spent you'd get more power....(responding to PN MAD's post)
  11. Well for a 20k+ setup u hope it better do 6/700+ HP!!!
  12. How long does.it take to warm up the tyres? Cos it takes me about 5 to 10 min to get to a servo...
  13. How much higher can it go? There's a buy it now for 60k...so can only go up another 10k max...
  14. Check this out: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/360130-eoi-z33-circuit-car-part-out/ rebuilt VQ35DET with APS kit...pushing out ~450rwhp... Am I the only one to think that's a pretty low number for a 20k upgrade? (engine + turbo + ecu+ other shit) Then again max power isn't everything I suppose!
  15. well good thing I didn't go 9.5"!
  16. Hi all, A friend of mine just recently imported a modded R32 from Japan. Its got some extensive mods and looks like it could put out about 400awkw once tuned... Unfortunately the ECU was replaced and a stock one is in the car now. Just wondering - is the PFC the best option that's not going to cost an arm and leg? Other options explored was Motec (too expensive) Haltech (not sure), Link ECU (again dont know anything about them) Nistune, etc... If there are any con's with the power fc, what will it be? any feedback much appreciated!
  17. Cam - yeah the economy is pretty bad. On 98 I get around 14Lp/100km around town. 10Lp/100km on the freeway. I expected probably a max 15% increase in consumption but looks like I've gone to 30% in consumption...so while the price/km ratio is still a shitloads better then 98, its definately not delivery what was advertised by the ALPGW mob I wonder if there's a freaking leak in the system...cos it feels like it!
  18. ahh ok so 39 all around aint too bad then...LOL
  19. Just wondering what everyone's running on their boats. When I had new KU31's put on (245/40/18) my steering went all heavy and crap at low speed. At first I thought the tyres must be underinflated... Went to the servo, fronts were at 34 and rears at 36. Pumped all 4 to 39(!) Is this too high? Now I realise the increased tyre width probably has more to do with it....right?
  20. hmm I'm getting 18L p/100km on LPG...have to refuel every 200km But its not all bad...with 250awkw and paying $20 to fill up the LPG I cant complain too much
  21. LOL I was waiting for someone to say this...
  22. My steering is all heavy and shit since I got the new tyres put on. Is it because they are underinflated?
  23. Have we got a place that will do this work for a similar price in Melbourne?
