Andy: I suppose. When I read the reviews on mine, they're suppose to be good for 45000-50000km. I'm already running close to 10000km and they still look new to me.

Depends how you drive I guess. I drive mine like a Skyline should be driven :D

Yea, RSR and KU36 are slicks wannabes, Hahahaha! The whole street legal slicks is just a market thing. Slicks = RE55 and Toyo888.

Wow, Brandon said something almost accurate! :ninja:. Just needed to add 'semi' in front of all those 'slicks' and its exactly right! :)

then drop its like its hot

[snip]

Baller!

the RSR now uses pretty good rubber though somthing like a RE55 is still about a second quicker at wakefield!

O RLY? News to me, might have to look into it...

say good bye to handling *DOUBLESLAP*

Drifters don't care about handling, they just care about baller uleh

Yeah the RSR was quite a step up over the RS

Ahhh i see i guess when your aim is to break traction at the drop of a hat a set up like that will help

Martin: Street driving only and I'm no street racer... If you bring your car to the track, you cant really compare the mileage to mine at all or the reviews I'm reading :)

tristan bro you wana help me put them on, me and ghosty wil try putting them on at my place, wuldnt mind the extra help, plus you get to see how it looks before any1 else does lol,

and do i need a license for driving those delivery scooters? i only have a license that allows me to drive cars, doesnt cover motorbikes scooters etc.

The price itself is already a BIG step over. Maybe take the evos for something in between. But I heard of evo limitations, maybe in terms of loading or sizes.

and yeh ill come by and help if time permits - keep me in the loop

then i can fap over mikes s15

I wana swap my rims for these :)

you'll need spcers on the front for it to look sexy

Telstra are the devil.

+ 1....i hate them like jews

Oh, I nearly forgot.

There was this dude at the carwash last night selling stickers. momo, trust, hks, nismo etc. For like $5. he had some bigger ones too for $10/$12.

I got a big Nissan one for the top of the windscreen, and a little nismo one. Pretty cool though. He said he'll be there every Thursday. He had a boot full of other sticker too. Dragons and assorted gayness. Might have been some good stuff in there though, I didn't look at all of them.

Farkkkk. We were gonna go to the wash last night but Damian said you's were going home......gay......... :)

that body kit has aids

+1!!!!

im gonna be putting in my coilovers on the car, to test them out, if too harsh can always remove them and go back to standard suspension, so hopefully next week when i c u guys car will have the coilovers on and lowered :ninja:

Worry about that front lip scraping man...

then drop its like its hot

Looking hawwwwwtt

yeeh man, those are 15s lol - new rims are on their way SUPRISE

Brandon showed me a pick of these d1 spec fluro wheels. Absolute porn i.m.o...

today i got a late christmas present from the mrs.

(ride height was altered in order to fit plates)

Quite possibiliee the best plate combo I've seen in a while... Awesome stuff breh

that body kit has aids

Super Aids tbh

yeeh man, those are 15s lol - new rims are on their way SUPRISE

Pm or text me. I hate suprises!

tristan bro you wana help me put them on, me and ghosty wil try putting them on at my place, wuldnt mind the extra help, plus you get to see how it looks before any1 else does lol,

No license needed for scooters.

I wana swap my rims for these :)

Epic.

oh f**k yeh - when i go 5 stud im getting them for suree

Worry about that front lip scraping man...

yeh man , but i think 120mm should be fine, just have to crab out of places more often,

and most arab styling has AIDS lol, when you watch too much fast and furious and have too much money to spend that is the end result LOL

that being said the rainbow r33 gtr boys from the gold coast have pretty nice cars. bit show spec with the rims though.

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
