  1. There's a 107 kilo bloke that works at Penrith McDonalds. He's 100% natural - been building for 6 years. The "juice" is for rapid growth, and quick regen. You don't need it to be huge, or built and ripped.
  2. Silver R33 GTS-T Today. Same white one as the other day too.
  3. Bar brothers likes their Day by Day crap. I don't. Birds - you just jelly. lol
  4. I drove a '32 GTR on the road. And a '33 GTR on the road. As a road car - I like the '32 more. As a track car - I have no clue how a '33 handles at speed. And I own a 32 GTS-T, and have driven several '33 GTS-T's. And the '32 looks sexier. lol
  5. R32 all the way! 1: racing heritage. 2: nimble and stylish. R33. 1: more leg room. 2: require a yacht club membership and boat license. IMO.
  6. If the Engine replacement is within 30% larger of the original size - it is legal without an engineers certificate. 1.6 datto. to 1.988 Silvia motor. Seems legal to me - just looking at those numbers. if I modify the engine - then it is illegal. I COULD be wrong - but considering that my ex girlfriend had one on her P's - that WAS engineered - I'd say mine would be legal. Either way - It'd be non turbo - a milk and eggs car. And would have the worlds shortest multi-cat/muffler exhaust known to man to make it road legal with the new emissions standards. lol 2 foot long 2.25" Cat back FTW.
  7. >.< A Turbo car with NO TURBO has NO COMPRESSION - THUS NO POWER. Twin turbo cost for a SKyline - go to G o o g l e and search Prices for GTR's in your area mate. If you want a nice looking car with some power - get an NA because they actually have compression in the cylinders. As @Tai1or Made said - it'll be slower than a Hyundai excel. So buy a Hyundai excel - and you can mash all the other P platers who pulled the Turbo's off their cars. I drive a turbo skyline on my P's for a total of 17.63 KM per day - to and from work. I'm just lucky there are no cops that patrol where I drive - seeing as half of them know I drive a Turbo one anyway. Being that I fit their tyres - and a few of them pointed out my car - then commented "Turbo mate? Big brakes, wouldn't have done that to an N/A" - BUSTED. lol. They know I don't drive like a total douche - but any of the other cops would frag me on the spot. Which is exactly why mine's coming off the road for a Build - with an RB25DET. (keep you blokes posted - I wont be going drift spec, but it will hopefully get a cage. ;D) And I'm buying a little Datto for my Daily run. Little datto - with an SR20DE - and you other Skyline owners will be gritting your teeth. For about 3 seconds. Then you'll be shitting yourselves laughing.
  8. Me. 18. 6' 2 2/3" 71 kilo's. I sit between ripped and lean. I've never been a fan of the huge shoulders of weight lifters, or the man boobs many of them get. I do like the pain killer "pill" shaped biceps though, but not everyone's genetics are the same - so I'm stuck with the "v" bottom biceps and \_ _/ shaped pecs that overlap my biceps at the top. I don't do weights as such - but I'm an ex Gymnast, and we did all floor routines with 2 kilo barbells in each hand "Do a forward salto free jump with those in your hands - and NOT faceplant" was the motto. I faceplanted. Repeatedly. I have actually started working out again - I didn't lose my abs or muscle since I was 17 (a whole year with no working out, and eating plenty of junk food, I do work hard though - being a tyre fitter.) I did put on a bit of fat though - I now have a 6-pack again - aiming to get my lower two to poke their little heads out like they used to (genetic "8" pack, lower muscle split between the pelvic layers - makes a long "V" shape in line with your abs - defines the "8-pack" some guys get. Anyway. Sitting at 71 Kilo with skinny arms, all core, back, triceps, upper back, outer shoulders, chest and well built legs. Aiming to be 85-87 kilo by the end of the year with about 10% BF on the "Bar Brothers" Style of routine - all free weights, long holds, low long motions, then hard high speed workouts for cardio. I get a free hour a day after work - in the freezing cold up here - and none of the heaters work at home - so I kinda have to work out to stay alive. haha. I want bigger "normal" arms. :-( At the moment I have severely activated my inner bicep, and outer tricep - so I get the big diagonal tricep, and the bulging in bicep - not up like body builders get by doing lifting curls (doing the bar brothers routines - doing chinups is pulling your body up, not your arm - like the BB's do - so it activates different groups.) I always liked the actual physical workout look, the Jamaican, the African American - Picture "head hunters" who have to move to live pretty much - so lots of rigourous outdoors exercise - Freerunning/parkour being something I enjoy doing - but there are no good spots to do it in Penrith - so I mash the monkey bars near the bowling club. lol. I also started Kick Boxing again at the Martial Arts center near AutoONE in Penrith - across the road from the netball ovals. I swear - those guys must be hobo's - they fight like they are gonna get a 10 course banquet if they win. One day I'll do a picture day by day build. But - y'know - I'm no camera whore like Zyzz was. >.< Kinda wish I was fat. I'd probably have more self confidence - why? 'Cause I wouldn't give a f*** what I look like, I might actually have a good personality.
  9. Red R32 parked outside a restaurant in the main drag in Penrith. GTST I think - not sure - was a quick glance. about 6pm. I saw the black P plate GTS again about 5 minutes ago - lol. Thinks his GTS is the sh!t by the sounds of him trying to send it sideways around the roundabout. lol. He definitely saw me - which would explain his antics. haha
  10. Saw that Silver R33 again tonight - in Penrith driving past Subway - about 7:30-8:00pm...
  11. haha - Ok, thought I saw P plates. Silver R33 GTS-T I think - didn't pay enough attention. Chrome rims - SWEET look to it too, very clean mate - In penrith in the Car park behind the kebab shop, and tattoo places, and candy shop.. lol Silver R34 Sedan with HID's, and a black front bar - lives up at the bottom of the wigleys that go into springwood from emu plains.
  12. Black R32 driving through penrith around the 12 mid-day mark. Red P's I think. haha.
  13. So nissan uses a silicon fluid for it's bushes? That's cool and dumb at the same time.
  14. What is "overpriced" for a full door-jamb, engine bay and body spray for you? Because a low end job is gonna start at 5 grand - and go to excess of 10 grand for a half decent one.
  15. Without a clearer pic - I can't see jack mate. I can see there's a bush, and it's black - and it still has the gap ring in it - but that "sticky gunk" wouldn't come from a bush, more likely oil. If it was lubricant for the bush - it wouldn't be liquid. Where are you located? If you're in Western Sydney - I could come and have a look. Your sway bar link D-Bush seems a bit stretched mate, that I can see.
  16. I did mine today, my gauge was smaller. Small enough to fit snuggly in the swivel-ball when I cut out the fins. Haha I need to trim a little chunk out of the rear shroud to make it flush. You're tut is great and easy to follow. :-)
  17. Eh. Nope. The only stickers mine has on it are on the Drivers side. Little mouse lookin' thing - with some jap writing, and "Eat, Sleep, Drift" semi-comic strip. lol. I wish though - that's a clean '32 that guy has, saw him recently too.
  18. Find a closed road, with a bend, no trees. Should be all good - the faster you go, the more reason to heel and toe it. Then again - why bother? RWD + Corner = high RPM & Smoke. lol
  19. Yeah, it looks mean as - pretty quiet too - I think my 3" exhaust powered RB20 Puss Bucket is louder. hahahahahaha Yeah, a bluish tinted metallic grey mate. Plates: RBL-33T (LOL, not my choosing..) You wouldn't happen to be the GTST with the (R33?) white rims that pulled into autObarn today? Beside Goodyear in Penrith. YES I KNOW MY REAR GUARDS ARE RUSTED OUT. lol.
  20. New R35 GTR, gunmetal - didn't catch plates. Driving through penrith. I was in the '32 that waved at ya mate. :-)
  21. Hi all - I recently just purchased myself a Skyline from a Forum Member, here's the dealio: It's an '89 R32 GTS-T Type M. It has a weirdly tinted blue/teal silver paint job. It has 17", 8"F and 9"R wheels - unsure of make/model of wheels - but they are bloody light, and have a nice little badge on the back saying "made in japan." They are two piece - if anyone can tell me what they are, I'd appreciate it. It has non Projector lights (had projector lights, but he swapped them out..), has foglights - but not fitted. It is currently sitting with a GTS Bar jammed up it's face, I'd like a GTR bar and guards - but we'll see what happens down the track. It has the big Type M brakes - nothing special really, just Red 4 pot front, 2 pot rear brakes. And it needs new rear rotors... lol. It has a black bootlid, with no spoiler - because the owner before the previous owner didn't like the wing - which in my opinion - makes the ass a little nicer. It has no badges - as it got "badged" just before I bought it. It has fully-sick-spec Rusted rear guards, and slightly impact damaged front guards (who needs pumped guards? Just hit a speed hump with low ass coil-overs..) It has front Castor Bars. It still has HICAS - which has so many extra lines in the back - that in the time I had free today - I couldn't be F'd removing, looping and putting in HICAS wheel lockers. It has a dying Stock Turbo. It has a full 3" quiet exhaust system. (I like it.. haha) It has Tein Coilovers - non-adjustable. It has a Turbo timer, oxy sensor, fancy 4 option doo-dad neatly packed in below the guage cluster. It has a full alarm and immobiliser system. It has a new headunit, new speakers, but the Sub was removed - tossing up getting one.. or just pulling the line out. (still in there.. not visible in the interior though - so it's all good. Extra's it came with: Steering rack arms. R34 Turbo. (spinning the shaft seems pretty stiff - new to turbo's - so I have NO clue what that means) Foglights. Turbo SMart Boost Tee. Stock Suspension Fancy deep dish, race styled Steering wheel with the funky yellow "I'M THE TOP FOOL!" tape made into the rubber rim. Boss kit that doesn't disrupt HICAS for said steering wheel. Air Flow Meter for the R34 Turbo. Pro's: Interior is in bloody good condition, the drivers seat has a minor tear due to constant use - like 99% of car seats.. And the Leather shifter, E-brake, and steering wheel trim are all worn - but it's all good - they are doing an OK job for now - will replace them with good new aftermarket ones (plain boring old black ones.. lol) eventually. Everything infront of rear quarters (back of the doors) is A1. No bent sills, minor oil leak, paint is good. It's a Type M. Tyres all all good, fronts have about 40% tread, rears are almost new. Not that it matters much - I have RSR's I can wrap on the rims instead. I have a lot of RSR's infact. So many - that we have a whole rack at work dedicated to different sized Khumo RSR's. And I get them all at cost price. Headlights will take H4 Xenon bulbs straight up, no modification. Just plug and play (apparently - we'll see how much I have to do when I get a set) Cons: Rear guards are rusted. No Spoiler, mis-matched boot. Needs rotors front and back (getting larger fronts - slotted, and slightly larger standard rears.) Right hand drivers door window seal needs replacement. Steering rack ends are locked hard - I couldn't undo them on the alignment machine at work. NEW RACK - WOOOOOOOT. lol. (I love the way this thing tracks the road, so raw a feeling, much nicer than the supra - little more scary too.) Managed to adjust the rods enough to get her tracking straight on the road - with +3.4 left toe in, and +4.7 right toe in - with -1.1 degree camber either side. I'd like it around.. y'know.. 0.7 a side toe - but as I said - a bit hard. There's clutch play, minor movement - but it locks hard, I think it's just the actuator - will have it up again to fix it. THE WORST ISSUE: Driving along, decellerating - she just wants to die, I can't clutch roll her - I have to downshift constantly to stop her from dying - or go fully-sick and heel & toe the brake and gas to keep the revs up so she doesn't stall. That being said - when she's about to stall the lights on the dash fade, then go out if I don't rev it. She has a new alternator, but I'll check that anyway - what i noticed was the accelerator cable was loose (to the throttlebody) will make it taught while she's idling to see if I can pull her in and keep her at 900 rpm idle that way - if not, and I listen to what the other Mechanic says and "BUY AN RB25" - then the problem will be solved. lol. Handling - in a small area - like a car park - you can't turn the wheel very far either way - pretty sure it's just all R32's - I'm just used to the multiple rotations required to turn a Toyota Su-Boat-Pra. Still turns just as well - slightly decreased turning circle - but made up for in the fact it's like a Go-Kart. lol So for 8,000 she wasn't an amazing buy. Really - 7,000 would have been better. But I got some bonus parts - and a car that drives really well, comes on boost nicely and is sort of tastefully maintained. Even though it cuts out randomly, and the turbo is dying. Still a great car - go-kart handling, light, clean, quiet - until she spools.. haha. PICS: Dat ass. I like the stance - quite Beefy with those rims. Still undecided... I like this pic - next expenditure - a good camera - these are taken with my Toshiba 7" Tablet. lol. So.. Clean... These are the rims at work I am thinking about getting - they are the perfect offset to line them up with the guards and would look pretty neat being the same stance. They are 18" Advanti Samurai's - Fluro Yellow. Still undecided - they aren't exactly "low-key" haha. Might pull off the ones I have on it, clean them up, powder coat them, repair the gutter rash - I just donno if I'll keep them black - might make them something brighter. Or might make them Silver. So this is my R32 weekly driver project. (weekly because I shouldn't be driving it on my P's. ) And - 58 bucks to fill up the tank. Not bad. :-) Anyone got a city driving KM/Tank guestimate for me? Thanks. :-) And for anyone wondering - "PPP Sleeper" Stands for "Project P Plate Sleeper" - I know - Creative youngin' ain't I?
  22. Would need to get it certified, as it's an RB swap into an SR body as far as I know. Anyone care to elaborate further?
  23. White R32 GTS-T. You cut off my Oma's Silver Mirage while driving past the 'Creek. Deep grey GTR (Yeah, you saw me too!) At the Carwash beside Hungry Jacks. Washing your car. Next to the one I just Drove home. haha. Sweet sound mate. :-D
