I need someone to drive my car down but i am definatley in so shall we set a date.

Any ideas? Seems asif john and mindflux want to hold off for a little while due to

there brakes. When will you guys be ready?

If you need a driver, :wavey:

yeah I am real keen as I want it done before the cruise on the 17th !! are you going to do it in Bris this time or the goldie as I drift between both places on weekends , but will stay in one or the other to have this done . But just to though in a hic up I will not have the line for about 3 weeks so I guess I will be cutting it fine or doing it later

Guys don't paint your brakes unless you know what you're doing! I keep having people come to me to fix theirs.. and well it's not easy once the paints flaking off.

I'm in Brisbane so I can paint them here too, but only a couple at once. Finding the time is the difficult part unless its a weekday (i work nights and some weekends)

Joey - Got my Act together, Gettign my breaks done this monday, So any time after that would be great.

I would Prefer to have it done at Umart (would have to be a sunday due to any other day having the car park full)

I'm still tossing up between blue or red, as im going to respray my car with a blue pearl.

I'll get back to you on that, however i think i'll stick to red

    • thanks mate, one of the reasons I even bought it to be fair.
    • I found parts on EFI Solutions webshop that seemed to be the accurate ones. I haven't gotten around to fitting the turbos back on the car yet since I still have to deal with the shitty crack in the engine block. But I'm confident that the bolts I ordered will fit. According to EFI they are also 7-16/24. The reason M11x1 got involved here is because it is apparently very similar to 7-16/24.
    • Well, to be fair to the car I've driven it daily for almost a decade now, although in that time only put on 50k, as it just recently passed 100k miles early this year. For the most part its been fine because I've been able to source parts from AUS like jacks jdm and a few places in Japan, some things like pads have been easy since 300z pads swap right in... I realize its probably at that time in its life i should find a new DD (but I rent and only have so much space, no garage) so new cars just complicate things. As it is older though, I recognize its about that time as with my '67 GTO to maybe side step and find an alternative, but if i can keep driving it... I want to.   That said, I may just look into a local shop that might be able to, problem is the mechanic I work with has limited space as a mom and pop operation, and he's a busy busy man, so id need to find out if he can keep the car in the meantime, which may or may not be practical for him. Maybe I'll just buy one off jacks jdm and get that refurbed /shrug.. just looking at options and what others may have to offer for advice on the matter. Like I said, its hard finding people around here who actually have one, I've had mine 9 and a half years and I've met 3 others, and they are all military, one was oem from 95 with 30k miles (rip that car... guy got hit after someone crossed s double yellow, totaled it)
    • I've noticed my rear springs sag a bit compared to the fronts. I have stock springs and KYB struts. The front wheels are pretty consistent in their ride height, but compared to the front wheels, one of the rears sits 20mm lower, and the other 40mm lower. This negatively affects the ground clearance, and also angles the headlights up. What are some some economical options for new springs? Or information like good spring rates, lengths  in order to find a suitable replacement etc Far from lowering the car, I'd prefer to raise it a bit to keep it ground clearance friendly.
    • I searched for ages as well, I'm importing an engine to get the head off it.
