why is there no race tracks??

They have tracks:

Kwinana Drag complex which is similar setup to WSID (good facility!!)

Barbagello (where V8 supercars run each year)

So they have better facilities than us as we dont even have a drag strip!!

Do you mind me asking what you study at uni?

And i agree gotta love companies paying for hotels and meals. taxi's, etc, etc.

I'm completing a double of Chemical Engineering and Finance :blink: *sigh* finally on my last year

There is plenty of work out there but I always worry that I wont find a job! A lot of companies have great graduate programs. I'm think minerals proc/mining or oil & gas...

At the moment I'm happy to move away or stay in SA...

im about to murder someone.

i need to be up for work in about 5 hours,

and for the last 90+ minutes ive been kept awake by the noise of a droning diesel engine somewhere nearby..

how very f**king annoying.

Any one have a link to the rb30 conversion, iv looked at the one on SAU but it too long 290+ pages

Need info on whats needed. Iv got the rb30e from a 89 r31 and my top end from my 33 gts-t. Iv got around 8 grand to put into my engine (internals) but have been thinking of the conversion any info would be goood

this is your wasteland?

:excl:

Yes, this is our wasteland

LOL, You call it that but really it isnt :P

Hmm I need to speak to you about something :wacko:

Will email you tommorrow :)

sif still on the same page peeps....your wasteland is the ghey! :laughing-smiley-014:

get pauly in here to whore it up :laughing-smiley-014:

Well, rather than starting a new thread, I thought I may do a little re-introduction of myself here ;

My name's Lee, and recently I purchased an R33 GTS-t. I've been a member of SAU for almost 3 years, the amount of time it took me to convince the wife a '33 was a good thing to have! LOL

I've been interested in imports for about the last 5-6 years, but took me till now to be in a position to buy one. I'm 26 now so insurance is reasonable (at long last) and I finished my studies in Electrical Engineering just under 18 months ago (end 2005). I now work as an Electrical Engineer in the city, and some of my previous cars I've had have been:

75 GC Galant (first car)

81 XD Falcon S pack

95 EF Fairmont

91 R31 Silhouette

96 EFII Fairmont Ghia (Manual!!)

and now my R33 :)

I also currently own a 2006 Mazda SP23 which is the daily. Well its sort of mine and my wifes. I drive her to work in the SP23 most days, and take it on to my work. But if she needs the car for something else that day, I drive the '33

So a little about me to revive this dead in the water wasteland!! :D

Not sure how many other people are recent members or been hiding in the dark so some intro's of yourselves would be good to get to know people. I plan to make it to some cruises, but work and family generally restricts me to Sunday Cruises, so need more sunday cruises!! :woot:

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
