Hello Everyone,

I used to visit this forum a lot back when I had an R33 in 2005/6. I sold the R33 in 2007 and brought an XR6 Turbo ute which is my luxury work ute.

I will now be a regular visitor to this forum again as I have recently purchased an R32 with an Rb25 engine. It is good to get behind the wheel of a Skyline again. My honest opinion is that the R32 I just purchased is better than sex.

Cheers and see you ppls around town

hey guys i just got back from darwin, nice small town, i saw about 4 different R34GTRs. one was like done up to th max, graphics and all, anyone here hehe

[Sklyn]

Hey, you think Darwin is small! haha, come to Alice...lol...

most Northerners use boostcrusing I believe..

[R32_R34]

About a month and a half between posts, essentially this thread a microcosm of the NT.

There would be a lot more than 20 skylines in the territory wouldn't there?

I mean even I have a black r32 gtst, that everyone seems to hate? (probably because it is stock apart from rims)

[BoyWhoCriedWolf]

You live aroudn the corner from me. I have the white Autech Stagea (you would have heard it), the black 08 Liberty GTB wagon (wouldve heard that too) and my wife owns the red Stagea. Your 32 is schmick, very neat.

Cheers,

Ken

I dont see those cars often, i do hear them but

Right now in the R32, where the plastic tank stamped to the metal radiator core is leaking.

Reckon I saw an 80mm alloy one for sale on boostcruising the other day was thinking bout getting it myself but sadly mine is still off the road

rebuilds take time lots a time when ya in the NT

check it out though NT forsale thread on boost

wasnt a bad price if I remember right?

[R32_R34]

Yeah, I was looking at getting a Aluminium radiator.

But the sad story is my car is auto *heavy heavy shame*

So I would have to run a transmission cooler separately and have to find some place to mount it,

That and I could only find Davies Craig coolers.

Unless there is a better way?

Any ideas except the obvious manual conversion ?

[BoyWhoCriedWolf]

Sell it and buy a manual. Itll be easier and cheaper in the long man.

[R32_R34]

I can't, its in real good knick, when I finish at uni was going to get a 32 GTR, but they'll be vintage by then , possibly a 34

BTW do you know a bloke with a s15 with the numberplate Mjestyk?

[Sklyn]

Wow, this place got busy all of a sudden!!

Hi guys!

[R32_R34]

Lol Was trying to make it look like something happens in Darwin, but now the secret has been blown.

[rino]

anything happening in darwin?

[noone]

Have never worked on an auto line' but I reckon you could fit a cooler in the front bar like most people do with oil cooler's

Dont know if there is much in the way of aftermarket gear for the auto's

Anybody up there interested in a few R32 GTR parts I have lying around

Factory camshafts

ABS unit

HICAS computer and various HICAS bits

Factory ECU

DBA4000 series slotted rotors - nearly new

Factory coils

Bilstein shocks with King low springs

Let me know soon as the car goes in the container on the 16th of this month and I will chuck it in the boot otherwise I will bin it.

Anything else you may need for a Skyline let me know as I can get most bits easily and will chuck it in the boot B4 the car goes in the container.

Yeah the gtt has a semi auto with toggle buttons on the wheel to change gears. there is a bit of a lag when changing gears and automatically changes down if you forget to so it doesn't stall, that said i don't use the semi-manual too often. I think the one in the city is a rb25de Neo without a turbo and thats probably the only reason it hasn't sold

Ohh and BTW where can u get HKS products in Darwin, am getting one installed.

(Posted earlier but skylines australia crashed)

That's a pretty good price for an 80mm radiator, but I don't think there is enough room between the front of the engine fan and radiator, not to mention the auto predicament. Thanks for the link
