  1. Broke a couple studs today replacing my brake pads, does anyone know the stud size and pattern or whatever else I would need to successfuly go buy some to replace. Where would I get these from? As well as the nuts? car = 99 r34 gtt, rear wheels
  2. I was the one in the black r34 who left early, my stomach couldn't handle the movement, even with the hydraulics turned off. Just to give you a comparison about how bad my motion sickness is, I threw up snorkling at Rottnest, and I can give you the tip, vomiting in the ocean is not pleasant. My mate stayed, said he raced like shit, sorry I couldn't have stayed for longer, but 10 mins of racing made me feel seedy for 45 minutes, and the food made me feel worse. Not the end of the world though. Was good meeting you all.
  3. I have a stock BOV and airbox if anyone needs. PM me.
  4. Mate was at the cruise when it happened. Apparently it was lols. Cops were everywhere and got a hold of one of the maps and were just tailing them. Was an extremely stupid thing to do IMHO. Giving all Skyline drivers a bad name.
  5. Paid for me and a friend under the paypal email [email protected].
  6. Cops were there with a nice roll of yellow stickers.
  7. What time are you all going to be there?
  8. Hey guys. I paid for the SAUWA membership 2 months ago and still haven't be notified.. Here is the transaction, (dated 6/6/11) have I done something wrong? Cheers!
  9. Feel for you man, that is fu**ed. May install a gps in my car for this exact scenario, heard it too many times..
  10. Sweet, thanks for all your help, a little more confident now Yeah the lights are unbelievably good, don't even need high beam hah! Cheers.
  11. Thanks, but I was looking for a little more information..
  12. Hey guys, just a quick update on my car (if anyone is following, although I am sure no one cares, I just like telling everyone!) I have the bomex kit sitting in my garage waiting for a mate to pick it up and paint it for me. I also just installed a pair of 6000k HID xenons by myself, which may not seem that great to be flaunting, but I know close to nothing about cars and I am not the handyman type. Soo, I am happy I have heard a cheap, safe and easy way to get an extra bit of power out of my '99 r34 gtt is to get an aftermarket chip put in it. Few questions for the knowledgeable to answer- Is it safe? Are there any drawbacks? Where can I get one and for how much? Engine is completely stock ^ Also I am looking into getting some blue in amongst the black.. I would like to change the background colour of my tacho/speed monitor thing to blue, also get a blue bulb for my boot. How would I go about either and is it safe for me (knowing nothing about cars/electrical) to do either. I would like to do it myself as I want to learn about my car and do all the mods (where possible) myself. Thanks guys! Steve;
  13. The blow off valve gives it that whistle after each acceleration, you need one of them and a turbo.
  14. I have heard that the gearbox inside skylines are indestructable. Not sure what sort of power they can handle though.
  15. No, they were designed for exterme heavy driving right up until you pull into the driveway. If you are grannying it (nothing over 3k revs) then there is no need to have a turbo timer as the turbo would already be cool. As someone meantioned, if you drive like a woman for 2-3 minutes before your destination, there wouldn't be any need to put your turbo timer on.
  16. Yeah, makes me feel like a pirate, only without the pludering. Or a polar bear without the weird looking horns that scare insane looking shoes off of emos.
  17. A secret, apparently.
  18. +1 Did you try getting a little headstart? Reversing back then going at it hard? "Get a bigger hammer" comes to mind..
  19. It's not illegal is it, the 6000k? Do you have to remove your whole front bumper to get to the lights? Oh drag. Thanks for all your help!! PS: Not normally a fan of yellow cars, but yours looks sick!
  20. Hello all. I am looking to change my front low beam headlights back to xenon (dam halogen compliance). Couple of quick questions before I start this. I have tried finding the information online, but apparenly I am useless at it. Foreword: Stock standard 1999 r34 25gt-t What size do xenon globes have to be, and what wattage? I have seen H1 H4 and D2R thrown around in a few threads, and I think 35w is what I want. Where can I purchase a xenon 6000k conversion kit? Preferably in Perth, but I am ok to buy online and ship. Is it easy enough to install yourself? On a scale of 1 to 10 (1 being my 80 y/o grandma can do it in her spare time, 10 being only one who can rebuild an engine blindfolded can do such a feat with ease) All help is appreciated! <3
  21. Board said "error, action could not be processed" so I hit the button again.
  22. Looks wicked man! Kind of what I want (eventually). Can you pm me the name of the brand/site? How hard was it to install? (1 being your mother could do it in her spare time, 10 being you need to be able to rebuild an rb25 with your eyes closed) Because I am not too car savvy. Keep up the good work!
  23. Extremely stupid and hard to use (which is weird for anything Japanese?) but I managed to find a manual and automatic control. I just leave it in automatic and it averages about 1 minute after nannying it, and up to 3 1/2 minutes after heavyish driving, which seems to be ok. In manual, you have to hold the "set" button and hit the "m.s.d" button to up the seconds or the "m.h" for minutes (up to 9:55). When I hit the "test" button, the timer turns off, then on again in about 2 seconds (useless?). I am guessing both the "standby" buttons are preset idle times, but I can't be bothered working it out. In conclusioin? It works fine if I put it on auto, and I don't have to worry about it.
  24. Don't plan on reselling for a LONG time. I am loving every second I have with the car. Friday night I went into the city for my birthday, got shitfaced. Saturday I was hungover worse then I ever was, throwing up, dizzy, headaches. Even then, I took all my wheels off, painted and replaced. I don't go through that much pain for a woman! Final result - attached. EDIT: Looks dirty cause it was windy yesterday and a bunch of shit blew onto them, but they are schmic!
