Why? cos there have been alot more claims(accident).

Ah thats why when I checked insurance before buying hte car they quoted me $2000 odd for a 1997 s14 while for my 1996 r33 i have to pay only $1000......

Still, not all silvia/200sx drivers are that bad - and I fail to see why, when things like this happen with other cars the media never mentions the model or anything.....I remember a while back how they had a video of some idiots hanging out of some jeep wrangler and flashing their butts at every car - but the only thing in the paper that mentioned the car was the fact that it only said "four wheel drive". Correct me if I am wrong, but its like saying, anyone that has an import or likes to race imports at winton must be a hoon or a very stupid driver.

I'm paying less than that (the $1000 mentioned) for my 180.. and in fact shannons would only cover the 32 for weekend driving until michael turns 25 (not that it ever seems to leave the garage anyway)... and it's always been a higher premium for the 32, both with just cars AND shannons.

So maybe it's not silvia drivers, maybe it's just all you men who can't drive for sh1t :D

And yes I agree with you Emsta.. it's not like they make a big deal out of what race someone is when they kill someone, because that would be discrimination, but if they're in an import when they do it.. woo let's group them all together and push the hate factor..... what can you do?

lebanese and aborigines in australia are racially isolated almost every time some crime revolves around em.

Maybe everyone's missing the point.

Maybe these drivers weren't born stupid - maybe they have been coerced by the media into performing such actions?

Maybe they saw Footloose on the weekend and thought they too should rebel against their father, John Lithgow, by wearing a knit sweater, car-surfing and hanging out with the highschool quaterback.

Surely the true villain here is not the driver or his passenger or Nissan or society... the true villain is Footloose, or more succinctly - Kevin Bacon.

Stop people doing stupid things on the road. Ban all Kevin Bacon movies!

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
