Does anyone know who can service HICAS here in sydney?

I was wondering why my search for RB25 camshafts didnt work out 2 well. I did notice that RB26DETT cams were the only ones listed. Thanks again steve and Onarun for Ur help. Heaps more homework 2 do. Lucky I'm in no rush Up until now i thought that cam timing gears and a lightened flywheel could improve bottom end power and freer revving. Is this incorrect?

can anyone explain the benefits of bigger camshafts and Adj timing gears? How will they affect 1. low RPM power? 2. High RPm power? Does anyone know if camshafts for RB25det are available here from Australia? For the power gains provided, do you think they are worth the money? Ahh....so many questions 8O :?:

Onarun, Sounds like U could start up a spare parts shop with Ur car Suspension setup sounds trick.. Meggala, Sorry 2 hear about Ur Engine dude. I wish U luck with fxing Ur car. Is everyone else happy with thier cars the way they are now?

Onarun, I got my JIC coilovers second hand at mates rates, along with a Tomei Triangular front strut brace and the diff. The car it came out of from Japan had travelled 28K and the parts look new. BTW the coilovers are FLT-a2 height and damper adj i think. What set up do U have in Ur car?

Glad 2 know I'm not the only one with S.I.S ( Skyline Improvement Syndrome). Whileline asked me how I want the car suspension set up, and I replied "like schumachers ferrari" Might have 2 wear a kidney belt on the next Akuna run Meggala, Thanks again for Ur advice Re; suspension and diff set up earlier. I,ve currently running a 4.3 diff ATM. My mate who imports modified cars, has 2 diffs with my name on it the nismo 3.9 and 4.1, along with enough parts 2 keep me poor for the next 3 years. Another mate told me to try the 3.9 as it should have faster hook up, greater strength and far less wheelspin and negligible disadvantage at take off due to power of engine. He worked at Diff Technics and knows his stuff. the 4.1 diff will go in if I find the other diff unsuitable. My car does 201rkw ATM on standard fuel delivery system, with fuel starvation issues at high RPM 7000+ ( found this out at Eastern creek) With upgraded fuel delivery system, Ur car could easily crack the 200rwkw mark. I am aiming for a max of 1.4 bar and will be happy 2 leave it at that. I think my car is tuned conservatively ATM and am happy 2 leave it that way ( dont want 2 risk damage to motor for more power) Anyway guys, its been good 2 exchange ideas ( I've learned a lot here) Good luck with your project skylines

Prank, The same thing happened 2 me a few months ago. The rear bumper and exhaust were F***ed, but it didnt look so bad Turns out the wole exhaust needed replacing, the rear diff and HICAS were serviced, and new rear bar. about $5000 woth of damage which their insurance covered. I almost didnt get their details because the damage didnt look so bad and they offered to pay me $800 cash for damages. The point is there is more than meets the eye. Make sure the repairer checks everything. If Ur girlfriend still feels bad about the accident, take her shoe shopping. That'll cheer her up

this forum could b a good place 2 exchange ideas about modifying our skylines. What do you plan 2 do with your skyline? with the Akira mobile, suspension will B the first thing 2 do. I've got JIC coilovers, and a whiteline handling pack going in next week. A NISMO 3.9 diff centre will b next. Following that the fuel delivery system ......I could go on and on, but thats all I can afford this year.

I've got 2 choose between selling my car for a R32GTR or build up my GTST want 2 buy 440+cc injectors + upgraded fuel pump, surge tank and regulator....... anyone happen 2 have these lying around? want 2 buy seats ( late model recaros or similar) for R33 I'm in North Sydney and can be SMS or phoned on 0401 676 032 Thanks, Akira

I'm here 2 join your GANG 8)

Its not a gut! its weight distribution. A motor racing term i believe

How about we call ourselves "the skyliners"? If we R not forming a cult, then Skylines Australia sounds good 2 me

Prank, I would like to buy 1 of the small stickers off U when we next meet. Whats the cost?

B4 U go out on the track at EC, a session or 2 on the Karts will help U get hyped up for the track. How about a skyline celebrity kart race?

Hey everyone, Just wondering if anyone has Mysfit stickers for sale yet? thanks, Akira
