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

IOm with craig 33 on this one roo.

Hes probably just trying to find ways to get more off the price. Ended up being a tryekicker/joyrider. DICKHEAD

With the engine idling you should be able to hear it leaking around the area with the old garden hose to your ear trick id say

Yeah, it sounds like a minor screamer. Which I had always assumed was just the wastegate opening and the fact it has a bellmouth dump pipe. Happened with the last turbo too ... leak both times? So its either normal, or I got a small exhaust leak. No performance loss, no loss in boost, just noise. I'm aware of the hose-to-ear trick and I'm giving it a go tomorrow. Only does it high rpm/max boost.

Still wouldn't mind just putting mind to rest and ticking that one off the list. :ermm:

I'm certain he was working on knocking me down in price. Asked me if I could take Stagea to boostworx for a check, then if all okay he'll buy. Nope. Done that before in the past. Potential buyer got me to take it to Hitech and came up with false problems and tried haggling for a free car pretty much :D Then left me with the bill for the inspection. Never again. As is, or not. :P

That could be the case, but I know when I bought my GTR off David, he already had the report from Boostworx... so I paid him the price he was asking :P

do people out south all drive 800cc 3 cylinders diahatsus and not do anything illegal or "hoon"-like while driving?

dont make me pull the statistics out that the advertiser printed in there "hoon" article, went something like northen area 400ish, southern area 100ish lol

i think western suburbs actually did well, they had the lowest number of hoons caught (hoon being anything from a burnout to drink driving bare in mind)

maybe they just hoon harder and dont stop for the cops

down the dirty south cops might be scared to pull those mofo's ova :cheers:

another thought could be maybe the cops are more quick to slap hoon charges on people around the north than the south. maybe for failing to indicate when turning or attempting to keep you carby injected fuel management system idleing at the lights(being your right foot)

      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.
