Somebody just buy me a new one with 3 screwie things which bolts to the wall thingie in the engine bay. Its the only thing left in my braking system that could probably do with replacing.

Oh, since the new Alcons i have only accept a 378x36mm thick rotor which is too big for my needs i now have some new Brembos.... so many brake calipers...only one car :cool: LOL, will have to buy a gutted race GTR one day and make it a twelve wheeler so i can use all the brake setups i have laying around :)

roy get yourself one i was amaze at the difference it made, just putting the n1 and my stock r33 gts-t one side by side you can see the size difference.

Hopefully they'll be able to huff and puff down a house or two, atleast these guys house:

Or maybe not.. :D

They're 2 Borg Warner S256's, on paper they should be able to push up to 1100hp's together, though i doubt ill pass the 4-digit limit, just seems like to much but hey, i might get lucky!

Not a Nissan I know but I finally picked up my new toy this week. It's set up for gravel, and that will be its main duty but also came with a set of new 048's so will do some tarmac stuff too (LAkeside, Mt Cotton, Morgan Park, Willowbank). I just have to reverse everything I know about driving cars and learn the wrongness of front wheel drive

A friend has an Integra and Civiv that he rallies out of Newcaslte. (same model Civic) Jad to sit back and laugh the first time he ran the Civic, it was completely std except for stripped interior and safety gear...he ran it for giggles and testing purposes and was already several seconds quicker then his off its head customg VR6 powerd earlier model Golf with everything done to it...std it was quicker. That was at a section of bush that is ou the back of Newcastle where his car club runs rally stages.... So, they are a brilliant thing std and amazingly good with some basic mods

Yeh this is the ex Denise Collins ARC Recce car. SiR Civic running the 1.6 Vtec (sik Uleh - feel the vtec PoWahhhhh!). Brakes are pretty stock and it has Bilstein coilovers. LSD and CR box so should be reasonably quick. In the right hands it will take it to a few of the AWD turbo boys, but in my hands I'll be happy to finish anywhere in the front half of the field.

Wasn't a light blue golf your friend ran was it? I remember racing against a guy back when I lived down that way - his name escapes me now (this was in the late 90's)

Middle aged guy, really chatty and an absolute legend of a guy, nothing too hard or too much trouble.

Haha you've just described 50% of rally tragics.

Nah, the guy I'm thinking of was fairly young - early 20's IIRC. I think he ditched the Golf and bought a GTI Pulsar (not the GTIR), but that's about when I lost touch with him. I stopped rallying down that way in about 2000.

Some time back I showed a link to a build thread of a mate's old E30 M3 in Europe. You may remember it was his 'Ring lapper and he blew the engine and a fellow bought it there and then on the back of a tilt tray. Well it's complete now and I gotta say, it's superb.

I just want a car. I looked at what 300k buys you here in Singapore on the weekend...the answer is not as much as it should! :ermm: I just want something to punt around in, anything, please ... But an E30 M3 woudl be awesome :)

just buy the 32 GTR troy. you know you want it!

I spend part of Sunday looking into whether it can be imported here...and no. But i have found a workshop that will sell me a car and guaranteed to buy it back at about the same price less a bit of depreciation. They have plenty of Silvias so looking into that at the moment

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
