Ok .. Amandas a dead set champ ... gav on the other hand gets me puzzled most of the time.

I'm having issues with real names atm, im like 'i was spekaing to greg' .. and then she puleld up your profile .. im like his plate is hex something or other..

and shes like .. Oh Chris?

and im like wtF? .. yeah thats him ..

and shes like, yeah i remember most cars by their plates .. (ironic how she remembed my car as 'the hail damaged r32' lol :D :D)

And i was asking her about cross drilled breaks .. and shes like nah you dont need them unless your going to be drifting and racing alot, and im like .. nah i've kinda retired.. my gearbox is screwed from all that :(

Just wondering is i should for out the 500 - 600 for slotted rotors .. or just keep my same ones ..

She told me, $165 including machining and labour and bendix pads..

dont know how true to his word he is though? .. cuz im still kind of up in the air about it, as he told me he checked my tyre pressure, and 2 days later i had to pump it up due to them being flat. :S :S

So i don't know what to think just at the moment, ill give him the benifit of the doubt and assume my tyre was flat from my weekend of madness..

Hmm..

Edit: Im not bagin Gav or anything.. im just making a statement, due to my prevous experiences with workshops ..you wouldnt blame me for being paranoid and suspicious

alright .. ill just check that transaction for you ..

as for piping, i know a member of these forums got some mild steel? piping done for $450

im hoping to possibly do a group buy on piping .. where ill have a word to some workshops and see if they can do X amount of cars for a cheaper price..

Wade - that should be fine by me, i will get my cooler about 2 weeks before you .. but im happy to wait ...

will you be supplying 2 cars? or just the one?

I noticed another member was interested in getting some piping done, so i'll have a word to him too .. and if he will be in that'll make 4 cars.

I will ring around a few work shops on the goldcoast and get prices soon .. i dont know of any workshops in brisbane .. so uhmm yeah :S ... apparently the cheapest workshop on the goldcoast is Ashmore exhaust .. doing it at $450 including pipes, bends.. pretty much all the shit. a member of the forum got his work done there, and he ahs invited me to check out the piping as he lives close by, and i may take up the oppotunity and hopefully get some photos.

However having said that .. i did speak to a 'friend' that said they were shit bla bla bla .. however i think he might be just jumping on the band wagon .. im unsure.

I will like to grab the lads that would be interested in this group purchase and discuss what kind of pipes and that so i have some amunition to speak to a few workshops about.

Nexus - how will i know when they need replacing? ..

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
