Hi

I just moved to Canberra from Dubbo. Down here to do some uni. Some of you might have seen me driving around already as i've seen quite a few lines with SAU stickers on them getting around.

Anyway i drive a R32 GTS-T with a Do-Luck body kit on it. The car can be seen here http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=101384.

So do you ACT skyline folk get together for cruises or anything very often? I'd love to come along and see a few other lines. Back home i had the only 32 in town until just recently!

We usually meet on a friday night at the Museum, but as of late there hasn't been much interest in that. stay tuned as we get it back up and running with 20+ cars a night!

Well i guess its not really uni as such. I'm at CIT. Hopefully there'll be some cruising going on soon. Everyone loves a good old fashioned cruise!

Ok....or everyone could completely forget to mention Tuesday nights???

We meet every Tuesday at the Jerrabomberra Tavern for trivia and a get together, you're more than welcome come!

THAT IS THE EXACT KIT I WANT, how much did it cost and where did you get it from?i sure hope it's not an original, otherwise you'd be taking out a secoind mortgage to buy it!

Veilside R33 its not an original kit. Its a replica i got from a mob in Perth called Works Auto i believe. Its an extremely well built kit as in strength etc but it doesn't quite fit that well. It took quite a bit of modification to get it to fit the car properly.

Also the kit is rediculously low! I went for a drive through Manuka the other day and got beached on one of the speed humps there. It was a little embarrassing!

To get the kit from works auto without the optional spoiler was about $1500, a fair bit cheaper than a genuine!

Also i might just come along Tuesday night, trivia and meeting other skyliners never hurt anyone! What time is it on?

NathR32 yeah Lee was telling me one of you guys owned an R32 but he said it was a different colour to mine! I figured it would probably be the same. Done much to yours besides the front mount?

chintami i wasn't trying to ram you in the carpark today either!! I swear! Was just trying to think of too many things at once!

      Engine sputter

      By Celticsfan03 · Posted

      I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?

      That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
