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

:mellow: Under $1000?

wont get anything worth using for under $1k.

brand spanking HSD's youre looking at $1200 and up i reckon. set of 2nd hand good condition jap coilovers will set you back $1500 on, brand news JIC's start at $1950.

my cusco's set me back $1500 when the dollar was rubbish. 2nd hand, but in awesome condish.

oh, and no more speed camera signs, pollies are saying its pointing out where they are, which is dangerous to them blah blah

http://www.news.com.au/story/0,27574,25789585-421,00.html

read that. lol'd. i doubt that many speed camera operators get harassed/threatened/bashed. like to see em work my job a couple saturday nights. they might go crazy with the number of threats they get.

lol pretty sure this suspension will have it dumped, the suspension is for a GTR but I had the fronts in my GTST

Also Scandy, so Hypergear do rebuilds aswell? because I cant see anything mentioned on their site, only new stuff.

yup.

hypergear on ns.

We can also high flow your old or blown T2x or T3x turbochargers from $800, Or rebuild from $400.

and from a pm;

To replace with a GT2860RS CHRA you will be looking at $1300AUD. Same spec in sleeve bearing is $800. Or rebuild assume your original wheels and shaft are good is $400.

Just had a customer cancel a booking for tomorrow because his car got defected, don't suppose the government is going to take into account the effect these stupid new laws will have on small business!

One of the things he got defected for... rear suspension 5MM to low....yes thats right FIVE millimetres...

5mm... you for cereal?

Is that 5mm lower than stock ... or 5mm lower than the lowest legal height?

?

I keep my suspension 10-15mm above the lowest legal height ... just to be sure. :mellow:

      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.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      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.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      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.
