2 sets, no leaks etc.

 

1 set JIC Magic, quality jap gear. Hard rates tho, perfect for track work or mountains. Think they are 8 and 10 or 7 and 9.

 

1 set Tein SS, better for Brisbane shit roads.

How much are you chasing for the Teins?

Motherf**ker

My brand new second hand raw broker CAS is dead

Just swapped it back with my old one that's stuffed and is idling like normal

Fu$k

Beer time

I have a spare one here for 20?

really thought i would be over CAS issues since buying a refurbished CAS (all new parts inside apparently) but guess that is a risk you take :(

yeah this CAS are a pain in da ass.

And not cheap to replace if buying new.

I f**ked mine up once and was lucky to be able to source a second hand one that has not given me any issues

yet

White 1995 model v-spec

Also has

Hks oil cooler

Unfortunately, with the motor on its way out you would be looking at the same amount as the lowest trade in value, namely, around $11,800. You may be better off parting the car out, if you have the skills/time to do this yourself. http://www.redbook.com.au/cars/research/used/details/1995-nissan-skyline-bcnr33-111628?R=111628&Silo=spec&Vertical=car&Ridx=9&eapi=2 To get the thing back to where it needs to be with engine rebuild and other repairs would be around the 15k mark as a rough estimate depending on how bad it is.

Another benchmark car is a 1996 bright green skyline GTR V-Spec with all the fruit, but some interior and bits missing for $11k. It has been on the market unsold for quite a while http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/mount-warren-park/cars-vans-utes/1996-r33-gtr-nissan-skyline-v-spec-repairable-write-off/1031209389

yeah already know about it

Thanx for the link.

But justifying the price for that kit is pretty hard to digest

So, this was my car on Monday....

Luckily, the hail was just sliding off the edge of this, no damage caused

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
