Yeah I get on with guys better then girls as like the same things...but finding alot more girls like me its awesome..

I like to do the girly thing here and there but always end up talking about cars in the end lol >_<

Agree there! None of my female friends are into cars at all, i must bore them to death cos it seems to be all I talk about. They are too into the whole happy family-kid thing, not me! I get bored when they talk about kids n babies, so guess we are even.

I have managed to nag one friend enough that she now wants a 33 at least.

still looking into that, dont you worry,

still got a few more dollars to save up before i buy though,

id rather only take a 20k loan than a 30k loan.

ha nice ...its a nice car :laugh:

Same! :PMost girls just don't get it. On the same line though, half of the guys I talk to have no ideas either. I remeber buying a car from a guy at work (an engineer) he told me the starter motor was stuffed...

Hehe----> All that was wrong : flat battery! :P Makes you wonder hey??

haha yeah..I have been around and helped those guys out...mostly when there car dies... :(

We had a guy at autosalon just gone was in a BMW newish one like 1999 model and had the stereo and neons on the whole weekend, now this guy blew a massive hole in his radiator I mean tore it apart from the pressure with the steam as something was wrong with it must be block or thermostat stuck...but he had no idea what to do and kept asking me if he could drive it home..Im like no way you wouldnt get 10minutes down the road..

so we helped him get it towed and stuff but I was thinking "is he serious"..can I drive it home

Some peeps need to be taught car fundementals before they are allowed to drive :P

You guys 25 is only a quarter of the way there!!!

Im only 27, im engaged and have a 17yr old son in law!

We own the 34, but the other half is too short to drive it! :/

lol now i am old 33 with a 15 yr old son :/ beat that guys the only one who can is 4door sleeper not sure if Andrew has Kids

yeah Jess ive been looking into brake upgrade not sure weather to go full 5stud which would give a lot of rim options but lack of funds prevents big options too

so ive been thinking of getting R33 DBA blanks and getting them drilled to suit 4 stud and keeping my rims

My gf hates me lol fell asleep the other night when i told her my plans about the car (after she said 34s look shit..."get a supra" just pushed it over the line though)

I think Madaz was referring to Evil's situation of living in his car :P

I haven't known anyone who has bought from DMD so can't say.

From all opinons on bodykits, it seems to be a personal opinon on fitment. What could be good fitment to someone may be completely unacceptable to someone else.

So my sugestion for you is to buy from DMD if they are reasonably cheap, and then if you have to pay $$ to have it modified to fit then it would have cost you the same as an expensive kit. If it fits nice first time, then you have saved some $$, if not, then you have a decent fitting kit (with the modifications) at a similar price to an expensive one. Just make sure the body-shop who fits it has plenty of experience in bodykits ;)

DMD is kinda expensive

    • The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.
    • But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
    • I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
    • I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:   
    • Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
