a certain someone just above you that you and I did the brakes for may have some for sale.....remember

lol blue mesh, reminds me of something like 5 years ago, PK's 33 in SCS when it was back at immanuel college, won an award for something and all it had was the plates and blue mesh from what i can remember.

Back when SCS was a good show.

sigh. another delay. with the cat again. fits. but the flanges dont line up with the rear section of my exhaust. think ill be calling jjr in the morning. to ask about my intercooler (which they still havent gotten back to me about, and about this f**king cat. i really cant be bothered with this thing.

good deal there, nice set too! how do you go about getting wheels shipped to aus?

ive been looking through jap auctions a fair bit but have nfi how to get them sent here or by who or how much haha.

haha, ole Anthony Chucky Norris is a good lad....I reckon Adelaide Engine was his very 1st job, when he was just a snotty nosed little kid.

Has he kissed and made up with his brother yet?

ummmm....no, unfortunately not...Paul is doing well though, he usually comes out with me on drives but he had to fix a car at his joint..He's working for himself as a milky now..his own hours..his own boss....Chucky (or FUNKY as we call him...long story) is still plodding along down at Grand...still unmarried..still playing the game like some 22 year old..lol

So you've replaced a dodgy set with another dodgy set? Buy some Splitfires, if the issue persists then you can rule out coilpacks.

As for the bolt, depending on where it snapped, use a set of pliers, wrap it around the thread of the bolt and work it out that way, done that before on my car, easy as piss.

Id rather find what the exact problem is rather than waste $600 on something i didn't need in the first place. If it is coilpacks, then ill replace them, but the set i had spare, i had no idea of the condition. The bolt has nothing left to grab with pliers, so ill have to take the cradle out.

    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
    • Well, yeah. But I just expect everything other than my car to feel like a bucket of shit anyway. I still miss my Alfa 116 so much though. You could run over a 20c piece and tell whether it was heads or tails.
