What a wicked ride! And sensational photos Franks! Also, nice spot for the photos again, gotta hunt you down and make you take photos of my ride when I get it :(

Damn damn damn damn, I can't wait until they tell me my Silver S2 has been bought and is on the ship!#!@!@!!#!!#!$ (I think it'll be very late December / early January though :D)

The FMIC looks mean as hell... where did she get the car may I ask?

Nice. Did Moanie do any mods herself? Or was it as imported?

The aft mkt guages above the stereo look wicked.

The guy who scouts the cars @ auctions left for Japan today.. he was in Aust on a holiday (damn slackers! hehe). So tomorrow I suppose he starts looking for my car..

Just like Moanie's, but completely stock.

Cheers,

Tim

Timmy G...i'd love to take credit for my new ride...but i imported it fully modified....i wasn't prepared to lose my car for weeks at a time, just waiting for the mods...as it is, i waited 3 months for this car....i couldn't handle anymore time apart :D The only thing i did do was get an safc :(

Definitely worth the wait! My car was the first one i seriously looked at...that was in the first few days of looking....i didn't get the car though...the guy pulled it out or something....it came back the next week and I bid and got it!!! very very lucky! :(

Hahahaha....i wuz told 2 months max....but theres always issues...my main one was waiting for the boat to leave japan...it took forever...and then my car got delayed in melbourne cause it had to get quarantined cause it was on the docks in japan for ages! But she's here now! :D

Damn that was so lucky!! So did you get it for a better price than the first buyer who fell through?

I am buying mine from a place in Manly Vale, NSW. They had one coming in which was PERFECT, and I asked them to tell me when it came in so I could check it out. Anyway I came in between time, and I asked about it.. and the guy said someone had put a deposit down on it (without seeing it)!!!

I was a little peeved. Apparently the guy had been looking for 2 months and was looking for I think a 96 GTS-T, black with a sunroof and <30,000kms! I am hoping he passes this one up cos the guy said he was really fussy.. and if he does, I'll have mine ASAP!!!!! But I'll wait until Dec 3rd when my final exams finish :burnout:

PS. the car that was coming in that I liked is at www.timgriffin.com/skyline/ .. it's the first two pictures (with the Nismo chin).

fmd!!!! Its got a sunroof!!! I'm gonna be jealous of that sunroof ;)

I lost the bid the first time around...i think the guy selling wasn't happy with the price...so the second time i bumped my bid up...and voila! I got a car :)

If you really want the car...maybe you should go and check it out and offer to buy it on the spot?!? Would they let you do that?!?! Full price has got to be better than a deposit?!?! Especially if the other guy is taking his sweet time deciding....there has to be some sorta time limit?!?!

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.

      Rear Sway Bar Busshings - Holden Astra TS (2002)

      I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.

      Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
