Respray in a week or two. What's a good red? I want something dark + non-stock looking. Maybe a metallic or something.

here's a novel idea. spray it the same colour as the rest of the car and save yourself some money?

how important is the strap that connects to the cat converter? because i have no where to put it on my new one that i just fitted.

it earths the sensor. i'd say pretty important ;) unless your exhaust is earthed in some other way.

For all the work getting done, it's basically the same price to respray the whole car.

Vu said my paint is faded so colour matching won't be 100% perfect anyway, hence the full respray.

Either way, I'm stoked with the price I'm getting! Also getting the front guards pulled at the same time ;)

not sure about your box though rimon. r34's are different with their tiptronic stuff. but i got mine done at knox automatics. off kellets road in rowville. a little bit too east for you i rekon. talk to Bass Junky. from memory he was putting very respectable power through his r34 box. sold the car but it used to be grey

two sith max, jedi order was a force of hundreds. dont argue with a nerd bro

Have you not seen Return of the Jedi? :ermm: There's like 2 Jedis left.. and the darkside has millions of stormtroopers and other minions!

red goes faster

ah ok yeah that is a bit too far i just wanna get the kit and put it in myself, was looking at a DIY on here before, pretty straight forward job.

these MV kits seem to be the most popular but aparently are only available in SA or something?

    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
