Hi Guys,

I saw a group buy post for redline oil and was considering getting some for my GTST (I use it in the GTR and it's great). Group buys are good but I wanted to make sure I was getting the best deal as generally it's pay up front then wait, wait, wait so the saving needs to be good to make it worth while. It turns out I can get a better deal here for us in sydney. Unique Autosports a long time SAU supporter has agreed to do a group buy price for us of $90 per bottle of Redline Lightweight Shockproof (as used in the UAS 300ZX, stock gearbox, 400++kw, slicks, still working after years of punishing on track!)

Now the details are:

company providing the product: UAS

product: redline lightweight shockproof oil, 3.785 litre bottle

quantity: need 10 people, if we get more may be able to get a further discount

close date: Friday 28/7/06

Price: $90

retail: ~$135 (depends where you go)

collection from: Unique Autosports, Castle Hill Sydney (open monday-saturday)

postage cost: $15 local NSW $20 rest of AUS.

UAS have plenty in stock and can get more fairly quickly. If you are interested please post the following information here:

what you want

whether pickup or post

where you are (state, city, postcode)

NOTE: I didnt want to step on anyones toes, but i always thought group buys are supposed to be primarily for the benefit of the members so I just wanted us to get the best deal. I understand the other group buy guy was helping us out and furthering his friends business at the same time which is cool but I just dont think the price was that good considering there is a 4 week wait. But if you are in perth or places far from NSW the other group buy may work out a few $$ cheaper, but with a much longer wait. The beauty of this one is no long waiting perioid and for sydney guys it's very cheap if you are willing to pick-up.

They may also be able to do other types of redline product if there is enough interest, but for all manual skylines this stuff is the absolute best. It's very worthwhile.

Also, for those who dont want to get your hands dirty and your driveway messy UAS can do the oil change for you. With a booking first of course. I will confirm tomorrow with UAS on the labour cost of that.

no worries. Pretty sure 1 will do the box, but i'll check with the workshop manual. adam, for your box you will need ATF though, or is there something i don't know :D:P

any idea if a bottle will fill an R32 GTS-t box?

i'm pretty sure it will, but i'm at work, and don't have the ability to research those facts here :)

put me down as being interested in this, would have to be posted to Brisbane

I'll check again tomorrow, but I'm pretty sure 1 bottle is enough, it's either that or you will need one big one (3.8l) and one small one.

postage to brisbane is no problem.

hi guys, i've spoken to john and they can do the oil change for you for $40. this includes draining the old oil, refilling with the new stuff and the displosal of your old stuff. of course if you want them to change it please ring and make a booking first, but it should be pretty much while you wait.

Ok folks as of next week I'll conclude what we call phase 1. This will mean any of you dudes that want your oil now can either pick it up, or have it posted to you. I have gathered a few other dudes i know together so we will have enough people.

sorry mate!

ok guys, to make payment and get your oil simply go to:

http://www.nismo.com.au/order_form.htm and fill out the order form and follow the payment details. Please put on your order "Beer Baron group buy" or "SAU group buy" so they know to charge you the correct price etc. All the details on price etc are in the first post. Please post up here when you have placed your order.

Thanks. :P

Don't worry about it, I need it tomorrow so i'm going to have to fork out and get it at $135

Hi mate,

If you are in Sydney you can pick it up straight away. no need to wait. Just rock in there and tell them you are from the Beer Baron group buy :wave: If interstate it could be a problem though!

All you other guys try and get your orders in. The sooner the better as it's much nicer if we can get the orders in over a shorter period :D

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
