anyone know whats happening around South rd/cross rd. Got a 7news chopper in the sky just wondering around.

EDIT: dont worry, burst water main in the middle of the rd has blown a hole in the rd lol

just came thru there coming back from Damos, 5 biker cops with laser, pulling up people for speeding over 25, had all of them looking at me like fresh meat in a lions cage, not speeding but arms length from my car with damos old front bar occupying the pass seat and back seat lol... made it thru the cage unmolested, heart was racing out of my chest, thought for sure I was done..lol

oh and it looks like they will have the road fixed up for rush hour in am, blew a hole near the caltex food mart south bound side

thanks again damo , your rims are pure porn mate :ermm:

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone can explain to me the process of "importing" a car from interstate? Thanks in advance :ermm:

i got my 34 from interstate

fresh from japan...went to melb.....the guy did all the complaince work over there.........drive her over to adelaide.......went to regency for full check......passed.......went and got her registered lol

Heres a brain teaser - problem with my daily:

Its a 1981 Toyota Corona CS

- cold start it struggles to stay on

- accelerator to the floor just to get it to idle - otherwise it would conk out if I let go

- idle while doing the above isnt stable - like its surging - sometime it conks out and have to repeat the above

- after a minute, it must of warmed up, it idles fine without accelerating

- chuck it into gear there is a high probability of it conking out and having to repeat everything above - but it doesnt take as long as when turning it on the first time

- first couple minutes of driving, accelerator is down to the floor and the car is just putting along at walking pace then it gains enough power and revs normal and is all good

Its about a 5 minute battle to keep it on every morning lol

- recently started happening when the other week the car just wouldnt start, before that the car started first time everytime and drove fine, after that day that it wouldnt turn on its been problematic ever since

- to get the car going again the points in the distributor was replaced, alternator replaced and a new battery but somehow the problem mentioned above arises

Anyone got suggestions on what could be wrong?

got the wheels on the Keto.

was lucky enough to get a really helpfull guy in repco, that sourced some wheel nuts that are nissan shape, but have toyota thread (even security nuts!)

pls ignore how filthy the old girl is... im busy saving the murray

I take it its a carbie ?, the choke is stuck, the idle circuit it dirty, air filter dirty? dirty PCV ?, vacuum leaks from dizzy to manifold, carbie vacuum advance ?

get some carb cleaning and hose it down with a fast idle after it warms up, problem solvered if its carbie, and carb doesnt need rebuild

Yeap its carby, just googled it up and I reckon carby cleaner sounds like a plan - will give that a try tomorrow. Cheers :D wish the R33 was as simple and cheap to rectify problems lol

ahaha, much love for the rick roll, well played sir.

bet the throttle body is black inside, but should be kinda bronze coloured. just warm up the engine, after taking the air cleaner lid off, hold it at about 2k rpm and spray inside the throat of carbie, motor will try to stall, stop spraying for a min, then repeat till clean, whats left of carbie cleaner wash off the outside of carbie.

and pcv valve and put it back in. after it cools off, look to see if the plate in carb is free, top one is choke. the little holes are the vents to float bowl, and idle curcuit, if you see raw fuel pouring/sputtering out of vents in carb, you have other problems in carb.

also can be a bad electric choke?

check vacuum line to dizzy advance, plugged in?

hope that helps mate :D

safety note, do not put your face over carbie, if it backfires, you will get a face full of fire

Awesome! just what i wanted to here after installing them in my car :D

lol, this cop was a cock to be polite about it

goin to fix it tomorrow after work, went for a drive about 8:30 down to caltex at st marys. sitting at the sturt / south rd lights, get a tap on my left window

same cop

"so, you've still got those blue lights in hey"

"ermm, ive got until friday to fix it" *casual grin on my face*

"oh...........................................................okay then" *flips his visor back down

LOL

listening too now not bad

what you use to make them

Mainly use fruity loops studio8 producer edition.

Editing is usually done with sony soundforge.

couple other smaller programs too.

its annoying because I cant upload any longer songs. or songs with more detail as they are more than 10mb.

CD will be made soon tho

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
