Welcome to the jungle dude

Read the forums often, esp the for sale section. Check the national forums in regards to maint, mods and stuff for sale

You'll grow into it. Just start with maintaining ur car as best u can and replacing the worn components to give it another decades worth of use. Once u got that sorted, then u can think about upgrades

Looks very pretty tho. You'll have fun with it, guaranteed

best single bit of advice is don't extend your oil changes do them even if you think the oil coming out is all good :)

have fun with the fight in the garage too your skyline wont like the senator :P but the senator will be jealous of the skyline :)

haha cheers fellas. yeah i got the car from a dude i know who bought it from NSW

i live in adelaide btw

the cleaning and makings things how i like has already started with simple things like cleaning it. fixing the dash lights/ putting my dvd player in tomorrow and hooking up my subs and amps in the process.

its only been a couple days, but they really are a ncie car to drive.

EDIT** with the headlights ive been told i can use any polis on the outside with a buff, is this a good idea or just do it by hand?

      RH9 R32 GTR Build Thread

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Out of curiosity, how do you cover up the inspection hole? Surely it doesn't sit open like that, right? With grime and dirt coming in and oil going out?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything
