  1. How does a rebuilt 20 cost the same as a std? The most i ever paid for a std 20 was thousand bucks and that was with nearly everyrthing still hangin off it. If it was me. I would go RB30/25
  2. The only person I talk motorcycle with is Hi Side Leather repairs at salisbury. wether its apparel or a drag bike Phil is a top bloke and doesnt talk any shit. If I were you before I did anything go and have a chat with him. He will point you in the right direction. Address is corner of evans road salisbury. over the road from the BP (I think) its at the end closest to QE 2 anyway.
  3. Sorry to hear.......again. Can you PM me the name of the workshop that did your build please mate.
  4. lol sorry champ I should have been clearer, in my case I change my rears fairly often (track/daily) so I dont give a shit what goes on, more important to me is function and price, not what some may think about X rims on Y car.
  5. Mate, it's not like Ford alloy wheels are made by Ford.... Of course one would take a flat head screw driver to the Emblems quick sticks. Cheers for the info ppls
  6. Got pissed on friday night and bought a U13 Bluebird. At least I bargined a good deal lol.
  7. FJ20. Con - Gettin a bit long in the tooth (didnt bother me) Pro - Plain scary with big turbo. Rips SR's a new a-hole.
  8. Trained Dogs FTW. not some idiot that takes food from anyone. Cattle dogs, pitties, germans, dobermann, these are the tools you need to rip a thief a new one boys. dog woulda ripped the Kunt before you got outta bed. "aww fcuk I broke into oldmates house and his dog took my balls your honour" Good times for all.....
  9. Are you going stock GTR or something else? and post pics when your done mate im interested to see your finished result. Cheers
  10. Hey mate have you looked at the KKR coolers? The one in thier Aristo kit is around 4/500 x 150/200 x 120 thick. A nice, chunky little cooler.
  11. +1 for bike to train-o Kuraby MIGHT Be ok because they have that huge chain meshed carpark with CCTV that looks like arthur gorie. But its still a bit iffy cos I dunno if/when they lock it. But if it was me, I wouldnt be able to help myself, I'd just drive to work EDIT: Many a nice car has gone missing from garden city mate. But again, its all about where you park, alarm/immobliser etc/
  12. +1 Or hit up forum.r31skylineclub.com/index.php if you dont wanna read bogan drivel in between decent posts
  13. Can you explain how you bend it with the pipe? Would I be right in thinking you use the tyre as leverage against the guard? if thats how its done it sounds dodge at first but Im thinking about it now hahaha
  14. Sad to hear. Everyone knows this car. Good luck with your new build mate.
  15. I wouldnt go near one of those things. They are SHIT. I have 10 yrs carpet cleaning experience so I know. Ring a carpet cleaner if your really keen to get it super clean. Most carpet cleaners hate doing cars so be nice and pull the seats out for him. If they try to charge you more then $100 to do both fronts and the back tell em to get f**ked. and make sure they use the hot water extraction method, not some half arsed dry cleaning bullshit. this goes for your carpets too. If your in brisbane or gold coast PM me.
  16. How much power are you chasing? Jim berry FTW. I have also heard great things about NPC clutches, I have never used one myself but if its good enough for Mark Jacobsens 7 second 32 they should go alright.... You should try to get a drive in a multi plated car first to see what its like.
  17. I'd ring a few mechanics around your area and tell em you need old plugs. They'll probs be like mate take the shit outta here.
  18. lol Chill out man he's just fcukin around. Anyway, 1/4 times are all good and well mate. But this guy is building a drifter, hence area under the curve is important. Now go have a cup of tea and a lie down.
  19. Mate VE's need twin turbo kits I watched a guy in a VE GTS get blitzed (6 car lengths) by a bloke in a fairly standard XR6T Ute! W E A K
  20. Best way is to modify the GTR sump. There is much information on the interwebz about this shit. start searching. Good luck
  21. only way you'll get an exact weight is to weigh it yourself mate. Some weights quoted will be with full fluids/tank others wont. IIRC we weighed a mates a few years back and it was around 1250 but cant remember how much fuel he had in it! I weigh my cars at the dump and ask for the docket. hope this helps
  22. Now I dont think non VVT's are crap but..... 1JZ GTE - 363 NM @ 4800 VVTi - 379 NM @ 2400 RB25NEO - 362 @ 3200 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_JZ_engine#1JZ-GTE
