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

interesting day at work. 6 tables were closed today because some of the storm water pipes routed through the roof of the ground floor (heritage buildings are awesome) decided it was a good time to retire. 4 roulette tables closed for most of the day, and were still closed when i left at 8, both sides of big wheel were closed for 3 hours, and 4 or 5 consoles on touchbet roulette were shut down, and still were when i left. that and a rather large section of open floor was closed off...

... it was pretty f**kin hilarious. :P

loss of revenue would easily be nudging 7 figures i reckon, tables were fair busy when is happened, half the place cleared out.

it mopar or no power lol thats what my friend keeps telling me :)

i always thought the expression was "mopar or no car."

luke, hope the issue with the R isnt too big..

all the best wed!!

Me too matey, oh well what happens happens :P

total nonsense

the gtr lip looks like a cowscoop attached to a train when the car is a) lowered and b) doesnt have the sideskirts to match

which incidentally the nismo lip came out before they thought of making nismo skirts and pods - they always painted the lower lip a dark color so it wouldnt be as noticable when people looked at the car as a whole...

and i totally reject the notion that the car is somehow lacking - you look at that front bar and tell me its lacking compared to any bitch arse softcock silvia or gtst bar >:P the bar works on its own yo, f**k a lip

adrian & luke = fail

-D

Edit and I have to add, that mismatched black bonnets look really really toy :banana: just my opinion tho, pay no heed

:) Like I said, each their own, oh, and technically it's not painted black, it's carbon fibre, just saying s'all

copypasta from another forum;

have just got this in at work, going through auction tomorrow - big story behind it which i probably shouldnt go into here, but it is an insane bit of gear. 30det, forgies, t72, twin 044's, CF buckets, roll cage, nitto 555r's, and....HKS sequential box - no shit. it's on avgas, redlines at 10k and shoots mad flames.

if this link doesnt work, i've got photos on my phone that i'll upload tonight...

edit: ok, will uploads some pics tonight. its an R33 GT-R, Navy Blue on Volks

and...

ok got some pics of that GT-R weapon. realise now that i didnt actually take any of the outside duh. anyway, it was f**kn ballistic and i just wish we could have let it rip on one of the acres of parking lot we have. anyway pretty sure my empolyers wont read this so in short, the car has been seized by Vic Police off the melbourne chinese triads, there was some drug involvement etc - and now the vic police in their wisdom have listed the car as a stat write off on the WOVR despite there being nothing wrong with it - meaning it can never be rego'd again. they're a cheeky bunch aren't they. and for a similar reason, they set the reserve stupid low, so it is gauranteed to sell, just to piss those chinese mob off more. good for parts only. we're expecting some serious bidding wars on it tomorrow, including some shifty chinese fellas, should be fun!

(also a photo of a stupidly wide chaser i followed to work the other morning. have seen this car on car sales, runs 11's on the back, -15 or something silly. all flare work is metal. looks better in pics than in the flesh tbh).

im sure if luke was worried about the gigantic target that his car is, he'd never drive it. period.

and the unpainted carbon bonnet works pretty well with his car imo.

anyways, link.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By V35Newbie · Posted

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      By Duncan · Posted

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
