How dodgy is that!

Ive seen car dealer owners and staff thrash the cars so much, we even went to one place and the guy had to move all these cars to get to the one we wanted to test drive, every single car was dead cold but he still proceeded to floor it like a maniac up the street just to turn around and come back again :)

I think knore was more worried about the fact that they were getting into a car with a dead cold engine and revving the tits off.

It might not have been a dealers car but? They could have just borrowed the plate for the weekend to compete in the burnout comp? I think they'd be pretty stupid to try and advertise a caryard whilst doing a burnout at a car event. Just my opinion.

Hey nismogirl no its not a pretty site seeing that being done to somethin i put alot work into and cared about not too sure how old he was id say early 30's from what you saw did it sound ok or was it struggling i do miss the power im now driving (i shouldnt really say) a vn commonwhore on gas all this just to save enough money to buy a house

radiator fluid should be good for 5 years, however u should change if it boils

Coolant should be changed every 2 years, im a mechanic and ive never seen coolant last 5 years. Cooling system flushes cost $88 bucks do that every 2 years and u wont have a problem with the cooling system. General upkeep is the key, people dont spend money and think they have a great car coz they havent had to spend any money on it but then it cost em more in the long run.

Yeah? Both efforts I have done were 1min30sec+ and my temp guage hardly moved at all, but they were only first gear ones, but still yeah had flush slightly after first go, and have not flushed since, so might be a good idea :(

Bah, 1st gear burnouts are for PU$$Y'S!!!!

:flamed:

    • Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.
    • I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want. 
    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue. 
    • Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder
    • Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
