Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

When i had the corolla id leave the 33 there for a week or two then jump in it and it would remind me why i still got it, felt f*kn amazing in comparison to the corolla haha.

im taking it to wilall racing soon, im sure its capable of more....its felt better than this.

ok those that are smart i travelled 325km and filled up with 52lt of fuel so i still had 13 lt in the tank what was my lt/100
6.25ltr/100km?? hahaha prob way off
if i read that right it was 8.3lt/100
ahh but he still had 13lt left in the tank tho adrian
14.7l/100

I get 'slightly' more than that out of 3/4 of a tank :S When is yours on the dyno for a good tune?

lol, are you guys using a calculator or an abacus cause you're all wrong and it doesn't matter how much fuel is left in the tank......see below:

By the way Steve, my calculations are useless if you didn't zero your counter immediately after your previous fill to the 52 litres.

EDIT: You can easily confirm if those calculations are correct in reverse. If you're using 16 litres for every 100km then 325km is 3.25 more, so multiply 16 by 3.25 and you get the total amount of fuel used = 52 litres.

GUMPTION works a treat at getting things off of anything like texta off of lockers off walls and 1000's of uses prolly also good for getting the grime off our headlights too

(CRoNic... @ 5 Aug 2008, 12:48 PM) *

I used Jiff ohmy.gif on my GTR last night to remove a sticker off the rear bar!

It worked quite well suprisingly. I've had this stupid sticker on there since I imported the car. It was literally randomly placed on the rear bar. Why they stuck it there, I will never know.

Jiff ftw!!

K @ H wax and grease remover is also great for that kind of thing! highly recomend it.

I was wondering what was good to use on those types of things! I had some of that Turtle bug, small baby and tar removal stuff that you can spray onto your car, but it didn't work

hahahaha very true i have ISC coils im thinking there a little stiff for adelaides pot holy roads i need proper whiteline sway bars now

every car feels like a commodore if the setup is wrong....

my 33 has HR tien coilovers, decent tread on 18's and gay strut braces and already has amazing turn in, and yes ive driven all sorts of cars to compare...Very happy the way the thing handles. Flat as and turn in like a mofo. Let the talking happen in the hills.

Cheers sled your the man and so is Sahun who rang me while i was at work :ermm:

oh yeah i always zero my ODO after paying and getting back in the car :D

never used the turtlebug stuff before.always had a can of wax and grease remover in the workshop and as far as i know is the strongest stuff you can use on your paint before you start taking it off.in the 3 years of using it iv never had an issue with it!

3.25 * 16 = negative fun

i find it 100 times easier to say how many k's ive done divide by the litres and thats how many k's you get per litre

makes it alot easier to see how much the shit is costing you.

this is too much math for a car webpage :thumbsup:

      gauge needle removal

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.

      R34 Speedo not working after manual swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder

      Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
