Hey everyone,

Little unsure if im posting this in the right section, so if im wrong then mods im sorry :dry:

Anyway, i am currently making another cold air intake on my car, and i am after a hole saw around 80mm, as i bought some 76mm intake ducting. At this stage i believe i have two options, one would be if someone has a metal cutting hole saw around this size, could i please borrow it??? The other would be to find out where i could buy a hole saw around this size. I went to bunnings, and they want $75 for the saw, and $40 for the mandrel to use it! That's just ridiculous, so does anyone know where else i could find hole saws? If it isnt made for metal and i mess up the saw then it doesnt really bug me, i only want it to cut the hole.

Cheers for any help

Hey mate, that would be perfect, where abouts are ya? I could just come to you, drill the hole, and im set, wouldn't even have to take it with me.

you can buy hole saw bits that you can put into the chuck of your electric drill

These are the bits im talking about? :)

    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
