my professors (18x9.5) are just on 10kg

they aint heavy wheels

call him and tell him your a mate of mine.... then watch him drop $50 of the price like that... LIKE THAT!

whodaman?

I had about an inch on you, now with 17's its about an inch and a half lol... Lets not go there!!!!

When I get back, ive got something in store for you ;)

are you sure..? haha when u get back july or soemthing?

Oh and alex, nah im not coming tonight haha. How was/is it? same shit or...?

didnt go.. was to warm in bed haha.. think it was usual shitttt been a bit better last couple weeks but a bit more attention too it seeems :down:

Yeah cool Shan!

If they want decent resale value, then yes... Yes they do :P

that aside, regardless of ur personal opinion of gtrs, they're still an icon. Kids grow up lusting after it and staring at it. Not that they don't at other skylines but it has a rep that's hard to shake. My bf's gtst makes 280rwkw and is bright orange. And it gets a lot of attention. But my stocker 190awkw gtr gets just as much awe as his does depending on the audience. First question when people see it... 'is that a REAL gtr??'

And his car as a 34 is still 40-50k 10 odd years on.

Case closed :D

;)

Fuck I hate it when ppl ask that!

To the untrained eye, they can't see the wider guards and the GTR badge.

What makes it worst is, I don't have the OEM Spoiler and ppl just think it is a GTS-T.

I like!

Well it turns out that the oil light was only on because the sensor is from the gen2 NA engine.. the gen3 turbo is completely different.

That's what the previous owner told me (after I just txted him about it).

I actually checked the dipstick this time and it indicates it's full haha..

BUT there is a pool of oil under the car (probably about 100ml). Could this be because I overflowed it? I only topped it up by about 100ml

Either I have epic failed or the old owner is lying.

so originally was a gen 2 NA engine ? and now a gen 3 turbo

why the engine swap?

Well the swap was done at 220,000km when the old engine was getting a bit old.

The gen3 is a much better designed engine. And well, obviously for more power!

Gen 2 NA = 117kw

Gen 3 turbo = 180kw (stock)

Mine would probably be over 200kw. Loving the power/weight ratio :down:

ah yeh fair call

yeah i knew they had more power, and they dont feel so restrictive up top cause they have better cams (brother was looking at buying one)

actually when he was looking he found a gen 2 with gen 3 engine we test drove in gladstone park, was red and paint work wasnt the best best

sounds similar to the one you bought

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
