  1. I got the lap times a while ago by googling bathurst lap times or something
  2. Niiice. Needs Watanabes and to be dropped a bit though
  3. Mark, pm me re the Watanabes I had for sale on the 31 forums I've got some +11 Longchamps too but was looking at keeping them
  4. Oh so nice. Did you use your wheels for the feature on how theyre made?
  5. Oh that was good, free Crownies all day and sitting next to Jack Brabham
  6. A GTSt is not going to use much more fuel than a GTS, if any. Around town I get between 10.3L/100km and 11.7L/100km in my FJ20ET DR30, it just comes down to how you drive it, I could easily push it up to 18L/100km or something equally silly if I drove like a wanker
  7. I'll be on our platform tomorrow (perfect view straight down pit straight from the chicane) and maybe Sunday if I can blag another ticket. Shall be good tomorrow, I normally dont drink there at all, tomorrow will be different
  8. Yeah, as if we're going to tell anyone that
  9. Picked it up today (Wednesday ) Is verrrrry good
  10. Watanabe look-alikes would be tough on it. If any of my wheels had actually fitted I would have kept it, but the Watanabes, Enkeis and Longchamps are all too wide. It was going to get a guage last week but the vacuum lines were too hidden for me to be bothered
  11. You've modded it already? I havent even been to the bank yet lol I figured you must have had some plans for it. Oh, did I have the most mortified look ever on my face when I discovered the pinprick leak in the radiator?
  12. Where is Grand Nissan located? Is that the one on North East Road?
  13. Plus to move the FJ back you either need really short runners or get rid of the brake booster if you plan on moving the engine more than an inch
  14. Shane, I have a nice Triumph sitting in the shed that I'd rather be driving and you've seen how big I am... I just don't fit in a Kei terribly well. But I wanted a kei so I bought it anyway. Its ok for short journeys but Flinders is 40 min each way and my ankle doesnt like being on that angle for that long. I would like to see it with a 2 inch exhaust and more boost though... Josh, its a '86 RS (I think... I found a page that has all the models) with a F5A efi intercooled turbo, part time 4wd. Best thing about it is that it has the same block as the aussie ones and the same box, so all the filters and stuff are easily replaceable, as is the gearbox (synchros on first and second arent great atm but it doesnt really bother me because I can drive it without crunching them) and the twincam F5B head fits the block (havent tried it but thats what I've been told). $1700 and its yours, body is really good apart from one small spot, interior has no rips. Yahoo sells them for about $2500+ plus getting them registered and all that entails
  15. DR30 coupe R32 GTR R32 GTSt 4 Door
  16. I'm going to rebuild it.... eventually I won't really have time to bugger around doing that so if I can afford to buy an engine in the mean-time I know I can have it in and running in a weekend. I refuse to drive the Alto to Flinders more than I have to... theres no way I could put up with that
  17. I think I may have smacked the bottom of the sump with a rock just beforehand, i do remember a big smack noise, so I'm thinking I managed to block the oil pickup Dirt roads are fun... But I'm getting a sump guard before I do that again
  18. How likely is it that I'd need new pistons? I'm looking at selling the Triumph now... that should allow me to buy that engine and get started on rebuilding mine, which... in the long run might be a good way to go, I could build it up like Todd's over time and eventually have a monster, then sell the spare when that one goes in Cheers for the replies guys Suprisingly I'm not in that bad a mood atm, I would have thought I'd be pissed about this, but since it was the oil pump (no other way it could lose pressure? Still full of oil, no leaks) it was going to happen anyway.
  19. I was thionking I might be able to do the bottom end myself, but I'll see if I can sell my Alto, dropping another engine in might be easier
  20. I think my oil pump died tonight in the hills, Now I've got an awful rattle and an oil guage that sits on 0. At least it happened up there where I could pretty much roll it all the way home, and not on my way to uni or something. Anyway.... I guess I'm looking at a new pump, bearings, probably rings, maybe a hone, new cam chain etc. What is that going to cost me in parts? I can probably fumble my way through the labour if I can find someone with some knowledge or a decent guide to follow, but I'm not sure how much the parts will be, and where the best place to get them is? Will a nissan dealer sell me the necessary parts? Thanks
  21. What moron would go from a sweet handling 250RR to the crappiest sports 1000 you can get, the tank-top racer R1. At least he redeemed himself with the CBR after that
  22. Dont you have Crimmo's lip?
  23. Apparently they were banned in the US because gangs were using them to mark out their territory
  24. Joel down here hasn't needed to change his engine to get some decent sideways action going, I think he's just running basic mods to improve breathing and a minispool, aswell as new springs shocks and bigger sway bars
  25. Rear belts you need to make up brackets that securely mount the belts above the rear parcel shelf, you've gotta brace the underside of the parcel shelf with plates so if theres an accident the bolts dont rip straight out. Basically I didnt bother, just chucked the seats away, made up a board that covers the hole through to the boot and carpeted everything. I cannot see the point of rear seats in a DR
