Sweet, will keep an eye out for you! Be careful around Newcastle itself if your car is modified, the boys in blue had ruined the car scene up here due to the minority that spoilt it for all of us!

Is that all :laugh:

hhahaha yeh

his new S15 is putting out some nice numbers atm, i have not seen it since he has put a top mount in and had it tuned so i cant wait, i think he is hitting the drags tonight last time he ran a 12.9 on standard turbos with a FMIC and a full exhaust + coilovers as his only mods, i think he may get mid 12s now with the new setup and tune

Make sure you have money to fix broken parts first! That's what i will be doing as the clutch i have wont slip now creating a weak link somewhere else in the drive-train................ There is a 34GTR 1/4 mile thread that shows a lot of launching!

leb special method of launching a GTR:

Turn Stereo on

Put on mad DOOF DOOF musiz

Adjust stereo to 11

Left Foot on clutch

Right Foot on Accelerator

Bounce off limiter

left foot off clutch

Pronouce "was that fully sic or what, Bro"

if you have a stock clutch you will burn it out pretty quick doing that im pretty sure..

im hoping to change mine to a nismo one in the future, the stock clutches are one of the weakest points on a gtr.

Im not sure what clutch it has in it, its rly heavy tho from what i have been told, i dont think its the stock one but i have not driven a GTR with a stock clutch to compair.

Apart from the drivers :ph34r: haha just kidding, NO stock clutch is designed for any more than going to the shops lol

The weight of the clutch doesnt tell much of the story, mine will be lighter than stock (Which i think will be weird)

Chookies NPC feels pretty good!

anyone used bowers suspension in merewether before? saw they were recomended on another forum, gave them a quick call and the guy seemed to know what he was on about, had worked on skylines before and seemed to know abit about them.

they can fit coilovers, do height adjustments, camber settings and wheel alignment for $350 which i thought was very reasonable aswell.

anyone been to them before? or can anyone recomend another suspension place?

Sheeeet man, i cant remember if they had a reeeeally bad rep or it was someone else :/ You would need to ask around! Price seems fair enough as a full wheel align is around 100 these days, the BC's come set at a good height but yours might need some stuffing around with your guards etc..........

Yeah good idea, sniff it out yourself and make sure they have a hoist that wont smash your front bar after the alignment! Even show them and tell them itll be lower obviously.

Also, your font and text seems to be going weird, you on phone or PC?

yea i will do.

im actually going to havea problem getting my car on my brothers hoist for servicing once lowered, his hoist arms are only just clearing my skirts atm.. was thinking i may need to get a low profile jack for the front, and maybe get it higher before putting it onto the hoist, but im not sure how that works ha...

yea im on work laptop, noticed its being going funny, really not sure why?.. haha

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
