  1. Don't like the chances.
  2. Last time there I was following Oz into that corner at 175km/h. 3 car lengths between us at 175 around a corner is so bloody scary. I was tying invisible rope to his rear bumper just to aid in traction to get around the corner. Still, you make it to the other side alive and the adrenaline rush is massive. My favourite corner has to be turn 4 though. Has nice camber and it just feels limitless. The only thing that ruins it is having to set up for the next corner so quickly.
  3. 1:08 is honking in an s15. What have you done to it? Also, just watched that video. He doesn't even look like he's trying. The straights are over as quick as a corner!
  4. Flat tyres suck for pushing.
  5. My move in time is also 4pm. What a crock. I didn't nominate that. I'll be there about 7:30-8. Will anyone be able to help me get home to Sutherland after this or am I catching the train? Garth, I'd use your plates except they wouldn't go with my whole black and white colour scheme. If you are coming to help anyway my front tyres are old and could use that silicone. Nick, you can be my two helpers if you like so no probs getting in. Actually I heard they let pretty much anyone in to help on friday night. No charge.
  6. Did you buy the nismo half shafts? Where? How much?
  7. Unbelievable. WTF is disconnected in your head?
  8. It also wears in a bit. Drive it a hundred k's or two then give it some biggish launches. It will be much better after that. I did 3 4 grand launches in a row and instantly it was better.
  9. To put it in you need also the GTR drive shafts, cv's, and hubs. The housing itself bolts straight in. Also need to reuse your input shaft as the GTR one has a different bolt pattern and wont bolt up to your yoke and drive shaft.
  10. I think Duncan has the banners. I have some cards.
  11. Squeaky wheel. I wanted to go to Compak attack too but I forgot it was on when I agreed to change it. Oh well, not changing it back that's for sure. B-man, first come first on. Pay on the day.
  12. Ok I've just been told that the half shaft I need to replace the one I stuffed is from a single spinner. the Viscous LSD's that are in all the turbo Skylines don't fit. Until I find one then, I am removing the diff from sale except to anyone who takes this information on baord and has one or wants to buy it anyway. Thanks.
  13. All you would have to do is read the first post to find that out. Yeah it's all Beer Barons fault that the date got changed.
  14. Ok, doesn't sound like a faulty diff Andi. It wont fit an R32 but it will fit R33 or R34. Matt, I'm not really sure what you are saying there. I think you are saying don't put the passenger side shaft in the drivers side?? but I'm not sure at all.
  15. Soooo you are trying to save a grand by getting a basically unsuitable turbo which will dictate that you spend at least another 10 grand to get things to deal with it? To the thread starter, I honestly mean no offence by this but I really think you don't know enough about what you are doing just yet or have the experience to understand what you're getting into. Comments like this give it away: I mean, this is a full engine rebuild. It's not getting a couple of bits bolted on. This is a many thousand dollar job. All that said, you don't sound stupid so probably another few weeks/months of hardcore reading and you should be ready to go. Feel free to keep asking questions but you can get lost for months just on this website as there is a mountain of info here. Also scam some passenger rides in some Skylines with varying levels of power (and ask the owners how much it cost them) to give you an idea of what you really want. cheers.
  16. Thanks Tam and Paul for the hospitality and thanks everyone for helping out. There was some genuine hard work put in there and I appreciate it.
  17. You're thinking of the Altia kit which comes with that front bar which is a Nissan Aero bar.
  18. This has already been discussed. The bourbon thing is not in the same area where we are going to be.
  19. Yeah that's why I rebuilt my auto when I blew it instead of doing the conversion but then I converted later anyway! Mine was an R34 so already had the steering wheel shift buttons. I'm told that the B&M's are work of engineering art.
  20. Dad joke! haha I'm driving. In for burnouts in the carpark afterwards@!
