Ok, so rang up transport sa today and apparently i have to do a 'learners practical test' before i get my P's back..? Is this where you drive around with a dude in a car telling you to turn here and turn there blah blah and marks u on it? If so THAT REALLY SUCKS! Boss is going away for 4 weeks and im pretty much running the store from 7 til 5 so dont have free time! Hopefully they can do it on a saturday.. Anyone know?

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

what a pain! if its a test done in office at TSA you'll probably need to do it in business hours. But if its one of those practicals where you drive around, you shouldnt have a problem doing it on the weekend... you'll probably end up needing to go back to TSA to complete their bloody paperwork (in business hours) after you finish

Just detailed the whole car today... its very shiny... Come on summer hurry up get here :blush:

Jarrad - instructors can come weekend but less hours available - eg weekdays 8-7, weekends 10-5.... something like that.

I want to shoot my dog. :P

Less than 24 hours at the new house and its ripping up the backyard, jumped the fence into the neighbours yard, climbed all over my furniture, put a hole in my shed, and has now damaged the interior to the house. The dog has never behaved like this before. Its just gone nuts :blush:

Here's a pic of a homebuilt pocket/pitbike racer me and a racing buddy built last year.

All the guys at the Pooraka track had a good laugh at it, until my mate and I broke the lap record on it that day. :laugh It was pretty awesome to ride it. Now I'm almost finished with my custom pitbike (mini motard) and I'm going back soon to try breaking the lap record again :blush:

Maybe he found the previous owners clandestine meth lab and thought it was icing sugar..

yeah man practical test is the one where you drive around with an instructor and have to do reverse parallel parking, 3 point turn etc etc.

Goodluck dude :banana:

Haha oh great! LOL I was hoping it would be one of those tests where they have a set course of roads/streets to follow and you have to abide by the road rules all they way and they grade you on it, im hoping its that anyways. For one, i cant reverse paralel park, my first instructor let me off because i was 'close enough' and had done it everytime but that time. And for 2, i havnt driven for 6 months, i mean, ive hardly been in a car and they expect me to pass it, but yeah, ah well, see how we go i guess. Thanks for the info guys.

Bah f**king povpack bullshit outback hillbilly inbred having sex with their cousins type bush mechanic idiocy

wtf are we all gonna be portrayed as yokel knobs that drive 30 yr old shitboxes that need to be hot wired

note to producers ; we have sealed roads in the cities.... they might be crappy sealed roads but theyre not gravel

this is the sort show that some dickhead at channel 7 says 'RIGHT lets give Shannon Noll a crapload of cocaine and tell him to go >fully sik< on it... hell we can even have a bootscooting segment... yeee hawwwww'

"How good was that?" is starting to sound like the opening question to the answer "Good az brew"....

Vomit

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      By Gantai · Posted

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
