  1. Am I the only one that clicked on this link?
  2. Cool, thanks guys. I guess I just got a bit of a bum steer.
  3. I can't seem to find where this is defined and I don't know how you find out which it was for a particular car. I'm looking to import a 2000 Jag XKR convertible which was sold new in Japan then exported to NZ. It's a fairly rare car so I figure low volume but how do I work this out. Ta.
  4. Good one man. I'm in.
  5. I managed to get some quite thick stuff from Repco but they pretty much told me that no one cuts their own gaskets anymore. They had a roll of the thick stuff which bought and said that was all they had. I need to make some thinner gaskets for my motorbike rebuild. Who would stock this sort of stuff? Does anyone know how many thicknesses there are?
  6. It's his full time business and he has a premises in Brookvale I think it is. Shell got her car done by him and it came up very well considering it was red and not washed or waxed much in it's life. Looked good.
  7. Rock.
  8. Well it comes with a 4.111:1 ratio so anything with a smaller number in front. No idea where to get them from though.
  9. What size tyres are you using? Do you have adjustable caster rods?
  10. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/m18460.html
  11. Robbie - aka DRFTD32 or something like that on here has the skills.
  12. Look it should be a well known fact now that some organised crime people are currently focused on stealing performance type cars in the Shire area generally. AFAIK they are currently driving a white camry. Don't know what year model. This will change. Just not leaving your car at any mall carparks will go a long way towards keeping it safe.
  13. Nice. Is that a K7 GSXR?
  14. You refuse to park it practically anywhere in sydney if it's going to be out of your sight.
  15. Ahhahhahahaha, I'm not even going to close this thead. Too funny.
  16. Sadly all we've succeeded in doing is kill all the regular dinners. There's still regular stuff, just not a regular monthly dinner here or there. I say you post one, an all inclusive one. Post it and they will come.
  17. 1. Fair enough. I can sympathise. 2. Pretty much the same as 1. 3. In the R34 GTR box 5th gear is 1:1 which is the same as 4th gear in almost every 5 speed box out there. This means that 6th is pretty much the same as 5th in a 5 speed making this reason redundant. Ok, I reckon that with that money it's doable. Buy R34 GTR box. You know it will bolt up at the engine. Clutch shouldn't be a problem. Shifter should be in the right position as same basic body as GTT and GTT box pretty much the same as GTST box. Prolly need custom tailshaft. About a grand I think. Maybe get a one piece. Maybe just do the front section and keep the rear section. Yeah that's a better idea. Check out the people who have cut off the transfer cases of R32 boxes. Any competent engineer should be able to do it.
  18. I know I know. I just hate people who blindly follow rules without question. Think for yourself Question authority Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are, or where we are going in this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities, the political, the religious, the educational authorities who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, informing, forming in our minds their view of reality. To think for yourself you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable, open-mindedness; chaotic, confused, vulnerability to inform yourself. Think for yourself. Question authority.
  19. What a fluke that I happen to be browsing this section today. I never come in here, EVER, and this thread was originally in another section anyway.
  20. Sounds ok. Once you get it tuned you will see more power.
  21. Ok it looks like rain so I'm calling it off.
