here what i have found

Midland towbars will get a towbar 1000kg from the eastern states and charge $795 fitted ....1 week wait and fitting 2-3 hours

rockingham towbars will make you a 1200kg towbar for $850 or a hayman (square tube type for $1050...needs car for 2-3 days

Someone told me that haymen reece make a 1600kg towbar but i rang them and these have never heard of such a car :(

Hey Mazzas,

Yeah mate, same guy on PSB :)

Was into cars way before I found bikes but now share the passion of both types of racing. I actually bought the Stag so I can pack all my track days gear into it and trailer the race bike around and sleep in the back if necessary. The Stag is much nicer than any ute in the same price range plus I already know how to modify work on them.

i am rsvpaul i went for a few rides with you until i had a stack on th aprilia

i will be looking at modifying this one alittle soon just got to remember its actually my mrs car.

I drove it back from adelaide last week and there is plenty ive room to sleep in her :)

Well hope ur rough idle is not the same as what mine has.

I have had a slight misfire and rough start in the morning for about 8 months.

In the last 3 weeks the misfire got worse and it started to idled rough at the lights. So I tried another set of coilpacks with no result

Only today I removed the spark plug from cylinder 6 only to find that it was full of coolant :-(

Now having to change the head gasket and hoping that is all thst it is

Haven't posted in a long time, but very desperate here. Need a set of stock wheels with reasonable tyres, or a pair of wheels with decent 225/40/R18 wheels ASAP close to Bassendean. One of my rears just started to delaminate, and the other one is very close to it.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
