I want to build up a DR30, but not as a burnout car just as a nice car :P

Long live the box/wedge !

Hells yeah!!!

Nah im thinking the same.. not just a burnout car... but a nice one :teehee:

Just cut the crap and put a merlin v16 out of a spitfire in it! It's different and it'll fry your tires quicker than you can say "get a dog up ya!"

My friend Jeremy is DJing at 151 so I will be there for sure. If you want to buy me a drink or three I'll be wearing a v-neck and jeans.

No that's what i'm wearing, i had dibs first.

irony (ˈaɪrənɪ)

—n , pl -nies

1. the humorous or mildly sarcastic use of words to imply the opposite of what they normally mean

2. an instance of this, used to draw attention to some incongruity or irrationality

Anyway, I figured if you have 40k to spend on a 31 your night out budget must be close to $5000, so drinks at 151, :)

Wasn't the Merlin a 12 cyl? Not trying to be a smart arse or anything. Anyway, +1 for the spitfire engine conversion, especially a Merlin 131, 2000HP at 25psi :)

We have a Merlin here at the Mech eng building at uni all cut up so you can see it in operation, thing is awesome.

amusing thread lol

talk of:

lesbians

eating books

ta ta's (Which we still need a pic of)

spending ridiculas amounts on a terrible engine

wooly mamoths

how hektic skidz require no skill

now there are a few more things i feel should be re-itterated

for administration purposes we require a ta ta shot...

the average 'nats' spectator has an iq figure of 40 and has the interlectual ability of a gumboot...

just put an ls1 in ur car and never never never mention clevos again.

birds and clutch make me laugh and sometimes a bit of wee comes out.

cup size??

any f**kwhit can destroy their own/their mates/their mums car doing skids. hill climbs and track days require brain cells.

No wonder her front teeth are broken. If you looked like that I imagine most people would want to punch you square in the teeth.

yes if thats sherry in her avatar then she not bad at all lol.

I wouldbe a liar if I said I hadnt poured tens of thousands into my track car but f**k its a 33. Its a better platform. It still uses a nissan engine even if it is 3 litre. And it is a track car. Its a race car. U dont need 500 hp to do a skid. U need to not care about ur car so a 31 is an obvious choice but not one with 40 g spent on it.

Furthur more if I had my time again I would have a f**king house by now. Not a money pit skyline thats never gunna be that amazing considering we have cars like the mark berry r34 and even his old 32. Cars like that will be remembered. Ill just be broke and have an aging car with no resale value.

I think if burnouts are ur thing it would be remedial to spend 40 g and a car to do them. A dirtty 5 litre vs commy ute will cost u f**k all and sit on rubber destroying cooks all day lol. And cost f**k all to fix when it breaks.

I swear I did say something as in... not just for skids.. you guys need to read better...

Plus I also said I used to do hillclimbs aswell =/

Yes it is me in my avatar.

    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
