hrmmm looking at upgrading my brakes! right now i don't know what to go for but i've seen a set of project mu i fancy that's a bit pricey i think! something like over 1k for disc and pads! anyone tried project mu?

Edited by nos man

There's a group buy on SAU for rotors + pads, run by rs73 I think his name is, he'll hook you up with a good buy. As for the lines, there's another group buy, $200 or so for ADR approved ones. All up you'd be flirting with the $1000 mark

haha no I wasn't there, lol (all the info is on a public register anyway).

So you still haven't said whose affidavit it was and why (if you did nothing wrong) you didn't contest it yourself.......you don't need a lawyer if you were as prepared as you say you were. It's worth a crack while you're already there if it means saving some $$ and 3 points possibly....what did you have to lose, you're already there and prepared??

If it's all in a public register than you should go look it up you'll find it under 'bent over for running an amber light'. I stated already that it wasn't worth the money for a lawyer to risk losing when it's my word against a cop and I've got 9 points in the bank.

You want me to name to cop that wrote the affidavit? and my name?

Why would I do that?

It's quite clear to me that you obviously hang on every word that any cop has ever typed in an affidavit and believe it's impossible for a cop to get it wrong in an affidavit.

I commend you SLED for being a believer, good on you.

Now I'll cease posting anything else that remotely comes close to the law or law enforcement.

Far out Talbo, if I was you I'd go easy .... that was a big knee-jerk reaction to a fairly harmless (and in fact in some ways reinforcing) post by Sled .... you had better hope he is in a good mood when he reads that, as if he is not I suspect you might get a little holiday from the forums :D

^ wont let me upload decent large songs.

the ones I put up were rather simple. but you get the idea.

Are you on www.mixupload.com.au? Try that out... you can upload your own full mixes, etc. Awesome site.

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

Bring it over, go through Regency to get a ID check, rip a skid on the way to getting your new number plates, win.

quote of the thread

But i always use a rubber even though the gf has the implant. My gf tried to tell me i should go on the pill (male contraception) i told her to just kick me in the balls whilst im asleep.

:D

oh, and a good rick roll in that thread, well played sir.

Pfft, you think thats good, I just fitted some mesh to the grill area of my silvia and it looks fking pro as. I am a winner :D

Tidying up the front bar and taking the twin pipes off later.

Pffft, I got a delivery coming today in the form of a nice fat envelope with lots of $$$ :)

F**K YOU TOO DAMO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cara! I gave you advanced warning about that and you still fell for it :huh:

Anyone amazingly good at removing turbo's from a R32 GTR?

Would like to start saving to get them rebuilt (seals are on the way out, and I want to get rid of that ceramic, pottery wheel) because I want to stay legal... for the moment... :)

Just want to know if it's a huge job or not? I've heard it's pretty difficult!

If I didn't have so much work around the house to do (house extension) I'd be happy to play with a GTR. If no one steps up, I may be able to squeeze an hour or two out this weekend (or next) to help.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
