today i found out that the military police drive cars that are remarkibly similar to the paddy wagons, blue and whice checker pattern to boot!

not only that but they are cool. one pulled up next to me at the lights, the passenger signalled to me to wind down my window. had a quick red light chat to him, he was complimenting me on my car, and it turns out he has a 32 gts-t and a jzx100!

we need metro police like that hahahaha

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

Well, I looked, I rang, I browsed ...

There are no type M bars available in South Australia ... privately, wrecking or imported. Fail :down:

I'll start shopping for something that is available.

I like the type R from Viva: http://www.vivagarage.com.au/nissan/nissan..._aeroparts.html

Anyone know the rough costs of having a worn gear changed in a manual gearbox?

I haven't done a gearbox in years ... and couldn't be bothered doing it myself anyway :P

actual gear? or the syncro?

u'd be looking at couple of 1000 for a gear replacment (labour alone will be up around $1500, plus mebe another $500-700 for a single gear)

Jeezus! I'll do it myself then. So where do I go looking for a 3rd gear for a GTR box? Wreckers? Nissan Aust? :P Will a standard 32/33/34 2wd box have the same 3rd gear?

i know there was at least a syncro change from 32 -> 33... perhaps talk to someone like PPG (out your way) that might be able to get you first 3 gears, im not sure if you'll be able to buy them individualy as a stock item (but i'd presume you would have to some how) however it'll just be easier to replace 1-3 as the gears are actually press fitted on

note: i know you can get individual gears from OSG threw one of the SAU traders (slide i think)... but that'd cost u $$

edit: also boxes can differ in gear ratios big time... rb20 -> rb25 ->rb26 are all different etc

Well ... I'll be doing a bit of research on that tonight.

Best to go cone lock or proper turbo nuts (have a little copper insert in them similar to nyloc nuts) if you dont want them to come loose again Cara

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
