im not too cluey on stones and gems, but surely these arent worth as much as theyre selling them for.... people into healing stones dont usually have a few grand to spend on them (or do they?)

also, considering getting my TE37's powder coated in red. anodised aluminium coating is a bitch to clean, and was never a fan of bronze.

Edit: hadnt even thought of plasti-dipping them. might do that for starters.

Theres this powder coating place in SE i always see on facebook, they do it for ~$250 for a whole set cheap cheap and looks like ok work.

if youve got spray gear, (20 dollar electric ozito gun from bunners) this stuff is decent. doesnt need thining.

sold a 2 door n/a 33 for 10k a few years ago dem p plate laws.

manual and coupes will go for about 1k more usually, maybe more. Mine was pretty zippy enjoyed it on my Ps. 123rwkw bro, dat healthy engine.

Probably liked it more than my GTR to be honest. (like fun vs price, obviously GTR is the better car.. ) used to do some fun shit with that little n/a. Maybe I was just young and stupid.

cool. might consider. would like to rock green wheels for a bit.

thanks for the tips, was looking for a new powdercoater since the one on cochranes rd is a bit of a joke.

kit looks great plattsy. might snap it up now, will do it over weekend. yo alvin, if i buy the kit you can borrow spray gun for $20 and provide your own lime?

no worries mate, i bought one litre of matte black, enough to do micra front bumper, grill and bonnet, still have about 250mm left.

maybe buy the litre and have spare for touch ups?

warning, the freight is nasty cos its dg.

i'll just buy my own. Any excuse to get more tools, is a good excuse.

honestly ish, this stuff is a piece of piss, clean rims, wash down with wax and grease rem, spray. leave for 10 mins, spray. repeat until thick as you like.

then clear coat it if you want it to last longer than a year!

what kind of clear coat?

farkin e-toll karnts. 3 days of tolls cost me $54 with the hire car. only overcharged me $2.80 on one of them. not worth sitting on hold for 20mins to argue. when they say use of toll roads will only cost $3.30 a day = normal toll cost + $3.30 service fee + exceeding 100kms a day in hire vehicle fee (which they never told me about). city link is espensive :(

lesson learnt.

Yeah, looks alright! Moreso if it was worth it, when I'll probably get a new set of rims altogether type thing haha.

Although this might (probably will) mean new tyres and coilovers... So nek minnit 3K purchase lol...

Your es is white isn't it? Fluro Orange. Kgo.

Yah, white. Haha maybe :P.

Hey Guys, is this car too good to be true? http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-Skyline-1999/SSE-AD-2134462/?Cr=21&sdmvc=1

I'm in the market for a 34 non-turbo and this one looks good, a bit too good.

Clean on the outside / Engine bay looks nice too...

The Km's are getting up there...

Big hole where the stereo was suppose to be...

High price to milk it out of P Platers as the car is P Plater friendly...

BB6 would pull pretty nicely imo. And could be leather interior etc notbad.jpg

But might be getting harder to find a nice example.

Also K-swap little EGs?

S2K,86 my picks if budget allowed.

EP3R coming down in prices, I think, too.

cheap, powerful, aus built car with japanese parts (ie, best of both worlds)... we all know the answer. SSS.

FTOs in manual are quite quick, P-plate friendly and coupes. got a face only a mother could love though, and parts are difficult + paint fade is common.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
