Well if u can pick up another caliper tonight it would take about half an hour plus a brake fluid bleed!

Problem is, I don't have either and have never done the brakes before.

oh gosh, wish you were my neighbour Aaron!!!

I remember some 25GT taking like 1 minute in the opposite lane trying to over take someone, that was funny.

There wasn't anything really bad that happened.

Just a lot of overtaking. Dont remember any burnouts or anything.

Edit, I remember justin being fed up with someone going slow in front of him, so he went into another lane and boosted off, only to see a speed camera right in front of him, *slams on brakes*

Srs, that looks like some normal orange, yours is some metalic with some yellowish pearl in it. Looks way better. Your wheels too :P

agree but I would love some of those rear fenders so I can straight my rear wheels

Ide help out but I'm in SE subs. Just undo the rear bolts holding on the front face of the caliper and try and in seize it. You should be able to. Then just do em back up. Might get you to where u need to be, and if it does un seize then atleast if it f**ks up on the way u can do a quick temp fix.

But I seriously wouldnt be driving it. If the brake is clamping your going to have some serious heat issues and break something

my 2530 sees the light again! A bit dusty, nothin suss with the actuator. Its stock :ph34r:

Anyone have a foot pump with a pressure dial gauge? Want to check if ive set the actuator correctly... From what I could make from the japanese instruction manual, it says 179mm for 1.0bar. Although heaps of thread still remains. Does that mean I can go for moar? Can someone plz translate the table? Thanks

Cheers for the advices Aaron! Will give it a shot if not I'll just quickly pop into Brake Plus or something tomorrow and hope they do it fast.

It says if you run too much boost, there will be danger to the manifold

I'm doing some work with my cousins business to help him out with the social networking side of things / help getting his name out - basically it's a small online JDM car parts store and quickly building in size. Like on facebook if you feel like helping out :)

http://www.facebook.com/jdmracingau

a link to the store is on the facebook page.. check it out

also he's started up a youtube channel for product reviews and events / trackdays etc. and we'll be doing some "driver profile" type videos in the near future - so will need a few different cars / people I'm sure I'll contact some of you about this in the future!

/shameless plug - sleep time now brahz

THAT WAS ME! >.< Bloody bitch next to me was speeding up as I was trying to over take her... Twas rather frustrating... Especially being N/A :-(

As for an incident, there was one overtaking incident on the GOR itself, guy tried to overtake 3 of us at a corner, almost went head first into a semi, would have collected all of us... Twas early in the day, towards the end of the pack (obviously, me being in a N/A)

But f**k, I was driving so f**kin hard to try and keep up on that day!

Lol you know you need a faster car when you struggling to overtake a lady :P

I do not condone speeding, stay safe brahs

I remember going up to shepparton, birds saw this.

Alvin was overtaking some bogan in an old xr8, the dude stepped on it and we almost hit an oncoming car (car swerved into emergency lane)

This was in the soarer, and the soarer was missfiring because his pod fell off... LOL

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
