Telstra farking wins. And s3 is a great phone. But is till love my blackberry. Hahaha

I was driving from work to springvale. Basically the monash from the tunnel to blackburn road. the whole time from burnley to blackburn. I had my left knee steering the wheel. Noodle box in one hand and chopsticks in the other. Finished it just before exiting fwy. Like a bawse.

Wow so many people are on bc br's. How much did you guise pay for them? And how do they go?

Oh btw. I has 4 discs nao :D. And red calipers. LOL. Red calipers wasn't my choice. Now to find time to put them in.

By the way. What's the deal with ball joints? Am I able to take the ones in my hubs atm and chuck it in the new hubs? Or will I have to go out and buy new ball joints? :/

im curious if i was driving down the rd and someone jumped out at me and i swerved to avoid killing them and rid off my car would he/she be liable or id just have to cop it for being sane?

Youd get the barriers in your ass and you'd enjoy it coz your a top bloke.

Red calipers +10kWasps brah ;)

My bc br's treating me pretty good thus far I think - I still need to figure out my ideal dampening settings (currently may be a bit too bouncy + some pesky speedbumps at uni cause rear to scrape unless I crawl over) and need to get it aligned again, but besides that I can't really complain about anything, so far so good?

That could be your spring rate adjustment

That could be your spring rate adjustment

to fix adjust preload or something? didn't want to mess with preload and stuff too much, looked okay as is when i put them in. but will have a looksee if messing with dampening settings isn't good enough, cheers brah :)

Yeh your need to adjust the spring rate, having loose springs will cause it to bounce around. Dampening is more so the ridgidity of the shock

Looks like your ready to do some track work brah

coming from the guy that likes his bulggagi touched by his asian lover boy and kidnaps little white girls

just pay for a higher excess and get quote online will prob be like 1000

Excess adjustment makes SFA difference to be honest, not worth raising the excess for.

Awaiting a email from Lumleys, which is underwritten by Wesfarmers which is joint company to Coles Myer apparently I can get staff discount, just need to invensgate further.

Let me know how you find the s3 I really want one but can't afford atm

ERs have the external oil res yeah? is that what's hitting? weird I never had any issues with my BC BRs with 18x10 +15s and 265s on my GTR

yeah external res ones man

though the clearance with the resivour is like 5mm now so happy with that

I would say you should be able to, they should only be bolted or clamped to the strut

Seems to be strange if they were welded etc

they have only a tiny space of movement - i thought it would be possible to atleast turn the res around like 90 degrees or something just to make sure its out of the way.. but doesnt seem so :(

Locked away?! That makes me sad :P

On another note, since when GTR's are at least $2k a year to insure? What a complete joke.

lol it will be out much more now!

yeah i pay like 1.8K (1.6K if i pay all at once but i pay monthly) full comp with just car, never had a claim and im 27 so dont have the higher price people under 25 do.. prices are f**ked..

Good to know this thing will be out and about more often now!

Agreed on insurance prices being proper f**ked up, it was cheaper to insure a 33 GTR when I was 22 year old idiot, I'm 25 now and surely the premiums would be lower no?

Worst case, start looking at other cars that doesn't attract higher premium (domestic market or sedan) *shudder*

Lol my premium went from 1370 to 1970 with no claims at all. And also turned 25 in that time. Since its never driven adjusted the excess and I'm back to 1300

what!? really who with? never heard of it going up with any claims..did you modify your policy? add mods?

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
