jlnewton Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 Finally got my right and left rotors for the rear on Monday and as luck would have it I had an early day care of the wet conditions so I got to fit them today. So now I have the dba 4000 series slotted rotors front and rear. Very cool. I have put the bendix ultimates front and rear as I said before I was running out of money so they were a cheaper option. No performance complaints yet, but then I have been bedding them in so no real chance to test them out. But I will say they are the dustiest pad by far that I have ever used. Not happy about that.

51jay Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 Steve you have to plan your trips with regard to fuel. When we went to Bundaberg we filled up with BP Ultimate near Nerangba and filled 4 20L jerry cans and we just made it back Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/15392-modification-update-thread/page/4/#findComment-415379 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Boxhead Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 the other weekend, i installed a 16' thermo fan, with the help of drift_me_silly i think there is much more cold air now on the radiator, and also, the car seems to rev a little more easily.. easy enough to install..

NA_R33 Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 hey all just thought i make a start, i dont think ill ever be finished with my car. I got my r33 gts NA last august and it came bog stock with a HKS Super Drager Exaust and slightly lowered. The next thing to do wwas put the stereo in out of my old car. I then purchased some 17 inch chromies about a month later. Soon after that in went the subs with a basic but still custom install. As i save a bit more money i got both doors and all quarter panels resprayed. Then we were renovating the house and the front gate fell on it putting a hole in the front left quarter panel and bonnet. So back to the panel beaters it went. I soon installed some neons and other interior stuff like EL guages momo wheel and knob. A little closer to the end of last year mum backed into it so back to the panel beaters again for a front bumper respray and GTR style front grille. I then got my licence in January, only to re end someone 3 days later as some **** WIT cut her off but oh well, if u run up someones arse its ur falt end of story . I then got a boot lip style spoiler. In the last month i have completely re made my boot, which is now no longer a boot. I got it back today from the body shop with a brand new kit and some extractors and an Apexi S-AFC ii is going on in the next 2 weeks. I now have to save very hard to do a 5 stud hub conversion and put some 18's or 19's on it as the kit makes my 17's look like golf buggy wheels.

46n2 Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 New Clutch is in w- 2800lb pressure plate. I think the plate is a Daikin, and the cover was put together by the store. Got it put in @ Direct Clutch in Albion - great to deal with.
