Al,

I'm sorry, I'm going to have to pull out unless somebody wants to lend me the cash!

Bloody bill this this month and all my money is gone.  Plus I have to pay for the prototype AFM to TURBO duct some time this week.

BASS OUT

BASS,

Do you know what the AFM to Turbo Duct is going to cost ?

If so, I'll pay for mine in advance. Would that help ????

Fat.

Thanks for the offer, but I'm not sure exactly the cost of the ducts yet, and I don't want to take any money for them until they are prototyped and proven to fit all cars that I'm offering them for.

I think I should get slotted rotors before I get brake lines too.

Thanks again.

Hey Al, what's the latest?

I see that some people are now looking to pull out. Are we in danger of getting below 15 and this thing turning into a house of cards?

I didn't receive a PM from you on Friday either.

Any light you could shed would be greatly appreciated,

Adrian

Well this friday i will PM all interested parties and for those that want clutch lines i will let you know how much it will cost.

Friday is not a deadline as such.  On Friday i will post details of an account to transfer money into.  Once i have all payments i will buy a ticket to MEXICO :P.

doesnt seem to be going ahead. I contacted maltech myself and they verified the setup with AL but......

Been thinking about organising it myself but cos Im still a newbie and I dont have a trader rating - thought it might be 2 hard.

Any one out their that would want to take over this cos I am sure their are some people that would still want these products. I know I still do.

Give Al a chance. I think this group buy will still go ahead. I know he's been a busy boy.

I'll give him a call later and see if he needs me to take it over. I think he may be waiting for one or two more people as we are just short of the 15 ppl buy price.

I'll let you guys know............

money transferred and email to Maltech sent!! :)

you can go Mexico now, Al :)

Actually i do not see/handle any of the funds, which is pretty good, as now you are dealing direct with the guys at Maltech. :D

One question, why is the "November Special" on nissansilvia.com only $340 including postage? yet here it is $345 + P&H ?

;) Just hate it when it is time to produce funds and people post 5hit like that above, without finding out the facts first. :cheers: FFS! the last i looked Skylines did not use the same brakes, suspension, etc as a Silvia. These are a far superiour engineered cars, if you want to fit Silvia lines on your 34, buy it from there. But Skylines use a 2 piece hose and a divider block for the front lines, hence extra manufacturing cost.

If you want to be petty, take it up with Steve at Maltech, i have organized this buy for the interest of the club, have nothing to personally gain, as i have already got my set 3 months ago, without the discount.

If you had simply compared the two RRP's you could have seen that Skyline lines are $430rrp and Silvia lines are $405rrp. Thus there is a $25 price differance and here you are only paying $11 extra.

Al, it's not the money I care about... I just asked a question why the prices were different for what I thought were a similar designed product. lighten up dude...

Al, it's not the money I care about... I just asked a question why the prices were different for what I thought were a similar designed product. I also was in no way implying you were benefiting from this group buy. lighten up dude...

YoooHoooo....Got mine on Friday and fitted up and bled no problem.These lines are exactly the same as stock lines with the brass block in them.

Al is 100% right on the fact that the Skyline lines are more costly to make with the additional block and extra swedgings(spelling). You can notice the differance immediately when you stand on the brakes...much harder pedal. I think my rubber lines must have been soft after 10 years.

Thanks Al for setting up the fantastic Group Buy and thanks Steve (Maltech) for being so quick with the lines and supply.

I know everyone that buys these lines will be happy with them

Thanks again Al

Ian

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
