cool, thats what i thought would be the case..... just wanted to make sure....one more question, does it add another 20MHz to the range, or does it simply shift the entire range up by 20MHz?

shift it up

While we are on the subject, does everyone else have crap reception?

Only station I can consistently pick up is WSFM.

Triple J has horrible reception and is mostly some/mainly static. Sometimes on that (equivalent of 105.7) It get over ridden by what sounds like the TV braodcast. As if the unit is getting confused and starts putting the audio from ABC or something (like the news ect) when going through certain spots

Anyone else experiencing similar/ solution

Is it possible to get some kind of booster ect that may help or waste of money seeing as these cars dont have a proper aerial?

Our aerials need 12v power. If you have a aftermarket head unit, wire the aerial wire from the factory loom (blue) to 12v+ acc power.

I've got a 20MHz one - I find it easier for my old brain to add 20 to the displayed frequency, rather than 18. I don't miss any stations that I actually want to listen to, so I'm happy all around.

      CV Axle boot torn, what are my options?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      FWIW I had the one on my Stagea replaced some time ago. Didn't have any shuddering. Just lots of grease going everywhere. My mechanic was saying it is easier and cheaper to just get a new one and replace it. No reason to spend hours on the labour for them to dick around fixing the old one. We ended up getting a replacement from JustJap. Reasonably confident it would have been one of these: https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd It was $190 ordered through the mechanic. We only replaced the side that was torn and left the other alone.

      Any help appreciated

      Most likely it's tuning related. That plenum is fine, moving to a Plazmaman you won't notice much of a difference. If you want supreme low down, better off with the stock intake manifold & plenum OR the Rajab top half. A Precision or Turbosmart 6262 is too big for what you want, and big boost with Tomei Valve springs also a fail. You can make 373kW on a stock motor with just head studs, sensible timing in the mid range and it will last for your intended purposes (won't last on the track for too long).

      Alcon TA6 Calipers on R33 GTST - Flexing

      Stick the caliper in your vice with soft jaws, that way you can turn it upside down simply. I think the factory lines are 10x1mm but I'd just take the whole thing down to your local Pirtek/MSCN and get them to sort it out.

      Thanks for that Komdotkom Does anyone by chance know what the thread is on the end of the hard line of the GTST front brake system before it goes to the braided line - will need to get a fitting to put in there as you say. Could you do this with the caliper on the car? Just get the pistons all the way back with a spacer or even some clamps? Im running a 36mm disc and 18mm pads - the pistons are almost as far back as they can get but i think with some old pads and a wedge I can make sure. Just easier if the caliper is mounted to something.
