I am looking at getting an engagement ring for the misses in in the near future and was wondering if any of the NSW crew either work at a Jewellers or have good experience with any in the Sydney region...???

Cheers Guys.

You might save some moolah and end up with a larger stone if you go with a 'manufacturing jeweller'.

The guy that made my diamond wedding ring and my wife's engagement ring is one such person.

If you'd like to contact him, his name is Lanman Cheong (Lanman's Fine Jewellery) 02-9542 3222 and tell him Terry sent you if you like.

He won a De Beer's Award once, in his heyday. He used to make rings for Bruce & Walsh.

He works from home these days and if you see him, he lives on a modest waterfront property at Prince Edward Dr Woronora

Hint:- you and your fiancee might take a pic of your favourite design in a store, grab details of the stone with specs on the 3x Cs (carat , colour, clarity) and go with a budget in mind to the manufacturing jeweller like above - and state that this is your limit; so "what can we get with that amount of money?"

Hope this helps...

One of my friends took his turbo to a jeweler and said make this for my wedding ring.

Its a perfect replica and the turbine wheel even spins lol

I think it was $1200 from memory. Ill try and get the name of the place that did it.

Highly recomend jordans jewelers in Sydney cbd on market st, i got my missues her ring there, it works out well that i know the people there, but the process is too easy they guide you through every step of the way and work with your budget to make a ring thats unique, i chose three ring designs and got them to make one from the parts that i liked, see either Joy or Ari and say that Eddie recomended you.

best of luck with it mate, my missus loved the ring.

Yeah I did a double take (read) on that one too! THanks for all the input guys... I am most likely either going to head down the antique route or have one made like many have suggested... Now to continuesaving the pennies...

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
