I had no power steering in mine for a few weeks. It doesn't bother me that much :P You get used to it and don't notice eventually.

My workmate has no PS in his MR2. Has gone without it for 15 years and loves it like that.

Also, less weight :thumbsup:

When you're moving faster than 10km/h there is no noticeable difference IMO. The only time it's a bitch is when parking.. but you just let the car roll a bit and it's fine.

Like I said, you get used to it :thumbsup:

chuck G-Parted boot disk in the drive, plug a USB hard drive in, turn it on, when it boots into the UNIX recovery OS, launch file browser and copy your files to the USB drive.

Then move it to a new computer or try and resurrect your old one.

There is already a disc in the drive and it won't eject :( Any ideas how to get it out?

finally burning some new music for my car

over the radio and the same cd ive listened to for about 8months

my car has alot of cd's in it, but they are all burnt, i keep the originals at home. atm im listening to nofx. no doof doof music ever in my car, only punk rock :(

I've had no PS in my Commodore for about 6 months it works every now and then which is a real pain in the ass, the wheel moves too much when you expect it to move only a little. You do get used to it though, does give you bigger forearms though :(

hey fag i sent it through

just printed it and noticed it needs your name and sig n shit. thanks anyway.. ill check if the importers near my school have anything.

i wonder if they would approve it even though im still on my L's

oo i got a reply from Recochem

200Ltr drum of 100% denatured industrial ethanol = $437.25 + GST

Equates to about;

$6.60 per week (3Litrs/week)

$3.00 per week (3Litrs of dimineral water/week)

-------

$9.60 per week

Now is this worth the 30-40kw atw gain O_o

thats on a 60litre tank though

the evo only has like 47 i think and only about 40-42 is used when driving before the fuel light comes on

so works out cheaper if i do it :( haha

not a fan :(

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
