  1. if ya keen Come out for a cruise to Londonderry dude devlin rd is pitch black at night has no side streets and is in the back of bum f**k can do a few runs there then i can take ya on a effin sweet hills run up springwood rd which isnt far from devlin rd it winds up the mountains its a top drive and quite challenging with plenty of tight stuff and nothing but cliff faces lol check it out on google maps. MANY MANY moons ago devlin rd used to have illegal street drags there so that gives you an idea of the road
  2. Wat pads u running mate? I put EBC red stuff pads and rda slotted rotors in my car and they were noisey as hell (ask jez lol) i done half a dozen 100km/h+ stops and it shut them up thank f**k! Wouldnt do it on the M4 especially not down penrith end if u live out west way head out to londonderry way (10mins from penrith) plenty of good long straight roads with nothin but bush around
  3. I got my injectors from cj motors he is an ebay seller with everything hes in QLD could try him or try jesse streeter he could maybe source ya some direct from Japan though??
  4. I know its a fair chunk of cash more and $$$ are tight these days but dickin around chasing parts and well the uncertainty these will work for ya (at this stage) factor in an injector clean on top of ya $450 say around $80 for a clean and flow test brings u up to $530 for an extra 270 u are getting brand new injectors plugs the works all guaranteed to drop in and work without dramas.... I know every1 tries to save $$$ where they can but My 2c is seems like false economy to me as $530 is a big chunk of cash still for old injectors the extra for new 1's is guaranteed peace of mind imo. Good luck tho mate its always fun chasing performance bargains :-)
  5. How much u paying for the injectors mate? Sard injectors are densos so you are on the right track with plugs and collars reason i ask is i got a set of 6 850cc Power enterprise injectors which are also densos brand new delivered for $800. Unless you are getting out of it REALLY cheap is it worth the dramas chasing parts and using 2nd hand injectors in ya baby?
  6. Isnt it under warranty? What model is it mate? I was gunna buy a pioneer avh-4350 7" screen double din unit soon
  7. Ive got a kaaz 2 way in my car and god knows what suspension and my car doesnt really spin wheels at all in 2nd when tyres are cold they will scream their guts out and chirp into 3rd gear but ive got dodgey 255 nankangs which im surprised how well they hang on in the dry tbh but in the wet i can spin wheels every single gear lol
  8. The rear housing is different mate .68 for pro s which requires new dump and kai kit is .62 i think and Nissan factory dump pipe bolts up
  9. I personally think its wrong to compare the hks and the HG turbos as they arent even remotely in the same price league! No doubt Mr HG offers great bang for ya buck its great to compare dynographs but is it like comparing an R35 to a Lamborgini???? quote name='Irwin123' timestamp='1323337455' post='6144921'] I think the 2835 pro s looks great, However price and hard to find.... Also have to change exhast, not that it's a big deal. Am I wrong in thinking the atr43ss -2 is quite similar as the hks 2835 pro s? But at the end of the day with either turbo I'm sure it will still go fair well
  10. Trust me dude my 288kw feels awesome ive never been in anything with more and obviously diff and suspension setup come into the equation but id imagine 300+ would start to be unusable on the street with a rwd. Traction issues! And in all honesty mate if u dont have some form of decent lsd and brake and suspension mods 300rwkw is gunna be bloody dangerous lol!
  11. Alot of guys in here run 20+ psi pretty safely as long as you have the fuel to keep up to it and the motor aint knocking i dont believe there is a prescribed amount of boost level that wont be safe obviously the condition of your engine has to be taken into consideration also. Hks dont make the pro s anymore so unless you find a 2nd hand kit its outta the question and the hks 2835kai kit wont give u the power u r chasing. My Gtx3071 kit cost me $2600 and had oil and water lines and the dump pipe cost me $250 which was a steal so realistically if u dont have at least 3G's to burn on a turbo forget a 3076 mate and look at ya kando or hypergear options cos oil lines wouldnt cost anymore than few hundred on top of the price and thats if they bolt up to the standard dumpy and in saying that generally speaking anything that bolts on to the nissan front pipe wont make anymore than 260kw unless u have an external gate which = more $$$. Hope i aint confused u anymore lol if $$$$ are an issue look for used goods but run the risk of buying some1 elses problem
  12. I woulda been waving that flag too but it didnt exist when i was in the market for a turbo :-( still happy with the garrett response probably isnt as good but when its on it still kicks ya up the ass! Haha
  13. Conflicting emotions........ Have always been a toyota man owned a Gt4 celica my old man has a tt soarer which ive had alot of fun in too but now im a nissan owner lol! Nice work mate the 1jz is 1 of the best donks ever made! If there was as much aftermarket support for the yotas as the nissans i probably never woulda jumped on the nissan boat. Nice build though buddy bet shes a screamer in the lil 32 the old boys snoarer pops along well with few lil tweaks and the 32 probably weighs as much as the 2 doors of the soarer hahaha
  14. I was surprised by my fuel economy but my car was tuned by yavus at unigroup and hes the go to man! Lol my motor is completly stock other than the go fast bits i see full boost in 2nd gear bout 3800-4000 3rd gear is prob 3500ish ive had near 27psi into my car few times briefly with no probs! Im thinking bout scrapping the nistune for a link G4 ecu and an E85 tune and 25psi + boost real soon :-)
  15. I have a Garrett GTX3071 on my standard manifold and have 850cc Power enterprise injectors making 288rwkw on bout 21psi and i get bout 450km out of a tank of juice but my car isnt a daily drive so when i get in it i generally head for the hills for some spirited driving My last tune when my nistune was installed with the standard turbo made 203kw on 12psi and my fuel economy was almost 100km worse on a tank of juice than it is now with 85kw less! So i guess the tune has alot to do with fuel economy also mate
  16. The kaixen kits i got off the forum here are top notch mate only H1 though as far as i know you wont regret em i didnt!
  17. Wondering why the cop at the end had his legs crossed while standing was he busting to go potty? What a waste of exotica the guy in the prius had to walk away the happiest in that situation! Haha
  18. Dont get the r32 computer mate cos it doesnt control the VCT
  19. The nistune can be bit of a pain for the 33's and by the time you buy a z32 ecu and nistune it u are prob better off spending a lil more on a new ecu. i know the Pfc is a proven thing for the 33's but everybody wants top $$$ for them cos they are rare. i know ecu selection boils down to choice of tuners & budget obviously but why would u buy an old pfc for 1200-1400 with hand control when u can buy a new G4 link for $1600? hear nothing but great things bout the link! Thats my opinion anyway :-)
  20. Lol $10000 for number plates?! Thats a full built 25 or in fact a whole new 33 with some change for mods! Sorry mate but u shoulda taken the larger $$$ when they were offered. But good luck gettin a sale champ
  21. Would u sell the pfc by itself mate?
  22. Im not an expert mate but am lead to believe a dot5 fluid is the best as it can handle more heat before boiling brand wise unsure whats best but id imagine any dot 4 or 5 fluid would be up to the job. Ask few of your local brake specialists see what they recommend mate
  23. Welcome aboard mate this is a great site for all the info u need bout ya new beast
  24. And support me better i left that bit out LOL
  25. Hey guys the time has come to replace my ratty old GTST seats for something that looks a bit sportier and me better ive looked at the east bear options and they dont make passenger seats anymore i do like the Bride EURO 2 seats but im looking at $2300 with the rails etc and there is a pair on ebay but they want $2200 which is a rort imo offered him $2000 cash and they werent interested Im 6ft3 110kg and wouldnt mind some seats that lower my seats height if at all possible as my knees are real close to the steering wheel id appreciate some feedback on seats and hopefully some nice grey GTR seats at a more realistic price
