yeah its worth fixen.. but everything steering and suspension related is bent or blown.. i got friends at a smash repair in palmy. but it'd cost another 7g at the very least to get it where it was, both sides of chassie at front is bent, and all up uderneath along the g\box aswell smashed the door in and yeah did alot of damage.. i would, but a 4wd is calling... cheaper option :)...

haha coxy. he always said keep that car well :( to far gone witch is a bummer, next car will be able to drive over the skyline with ease :/

pity about that. i know a guy who has a 25 in a pootrol, it goes alright. sumthing different i guess. find sumthing small to put it in as a track car then have a 4wd as your other car. best of both worlds

No shims in a rb25. They are hydraulic lifters. Might have a collapsed one from having incorrect oil flow restrictors in place. If you drive it hard does it get better for a little bit? Unless its had a rb25 neo head or solid lifter conversion that is.

Lol he works a street over from my workshop, i hear it all the time. I infact ran into old mate at bp whilst Kails and i were filling the 32 up, I strolled over and asked to have a look as a mate was "raging" how quick it was. I said "whats the knock mate?" he told me it was shims so i asked if it was a Neo 34 Motor to his reply "i dunno" series 2? "i dunno" how much power do you make "i dunno".... now my reply " Bro 33's dont have solid lifters, no shims there ... its your big ends. Dont rape it to much, Cya"

So yeah we still wont make it out this weekend Cuzz. Got alot on:

Finish 25/30det cefiro wiring

Swap rb20 out of 180sx into r32 4 door

Completely strip R32 GTST

Change t3 gasket in our black 32.

Pick up S13 shell to throw spare rb25 into

SKids and more skids...

Have a good weekend lads!

brand new highflow cat... doesnt matter now

dump pipe came off last nite and boost spiked.... sent me a 180 into a rock wall and its f**ked.... bye bye r31 coupe *CRIES*

anyone wanna buy some parts off it.... kinda f**king devo'd

LOL, a/ how does your dump pipe 'fall off'?

b/ do you now maybe think that your boosting issues had something to do with your exhaust like someone previously stated, considering that after it fell off, it then ran more boost?

c/ unless it spiked 30 psi or more, how did it put you in a wall?

      Genuine nismo N1 rear pods - anyone got any?

      By Sleepergm · Posted

      I’m sure this has been discussed many times. But anyone have any or know someone that is selling genuine N1 rear pods? I’m still shocked no one replicates these yet. Looking to buy some. Added a photo of the part. 👍🏻

      Alcon TA6 Calipers on R33 GTST - Flexing

      By Nismo32 · Posted

      Hello, The dog bone wont have much to do with this - the calliper applies a load about the disc - the outside of the calliper is more flexible than the inside by virtue of it not haveing the big torqued down bolts, additional metal structure on the caliper itself, and mostly not being cantilevered. So the outside of the calliper is pushing away as its more bendy and brining the inside with it as an equal pressure on both sides of the caliper looks to cause more flex on the outside - which makes sense. I have done this same thing with the calliper unbolted from the dog bone - same thing happens. Although id have to watch more carefully to see how much more the outside moves than the inside in this case. Im guessing there is a point in the pedals travel where the pressure is not actually increasing in the system - its just volumne displacemnt - and because the outside of the calliper is more flexy, it receives that volume. Have gone back to Alcon again - but beyond a resolution there I would stay clear of this calliper and possibly any of the lighweight type of callipers - especially if you have the smaller 15/16" master cylinder. Cheers.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes, you can very clearly see from more than one angle that it is the whole caliper moving left-right, not deformation of the caliper. The top moves, the bottom moves. Equally. It should be possible to see where the movement is occurring. Just need to look more closely.

      Water pump replacement - Sydney region

      By billyons · Posted

      Hi Folks, my 2009 Skyline 370GT “Crossover” wagon is losing water and has been diagnosed as needing a water pump replacement (it’s an internal timing-chain driven unit, not the usual electric type that seems to be used across many manufacturers). Am looking for any repairer recommendations in the Sydney /Wollongong region who can be trusted and are experienced in this sort of work on the VQ 36 engine. Many thanks….Bill

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      While all of the above makes sense, we're not talking about some Ling Long calipers of AliExpress; Alcon would have to be one of the top 5 caliper suppliers in the world and these are not their budget units. If there were manufacturing defects in the caliper causing this issue I'd be very disappointed. Having re-watched the video a few times I think it's dog bone/mount related. The caliper moves independently to the rest of the suspension and brake assembly which suggests to me that it's not mounted rigidly. I know this sounds stupid, but have you got enough thread on the retaining bolts or are they a poofteenth too long and it's not super tight? For axial movement to be occurring without deforming the caliper that can be the only answer.
