hey just went skydiving this morning and damn its a must do for everyone even if you got fear of hieghts.

did it with skydive express out in York cost $350 got a 10% group diso**** cause there were 6 of us.

highly recommend it to all.

side note:

got pulled over on the polly farmer freeway on the way back, i was over taking some guy who slowed down and then switched lanes abruntly. Police car in front saw me in the rear view as i was passing so got pulled over.

didn't get a ticket, he checked out under the bonnet but i had permits so he had a quick look.

Permits made a big difference, no 5th degree stuff, just sat back in the seat and let him have a look. he didn't make any mention of the exhaust which i don't have a permit for but its not that loud.

Way to mis-spell discount jxl, was wondering wtf was happening for a minute. My mum went skydiving about a month ago, she still gets a buzz of it. She got a dvd of it (paid like over $300 to get it, because the person had to jump too), and watches it at least once every couple of days. Absolutely loved it.

re your side note, were you speeding when you passed?? As in technically speeding, 85 in a 80 zone, or were you being a naughty boy doing about 100kph??

Would have sucked seeing the cop going slower & slower as you come up to him, knowing he was going to pull you over.

At least you had permits though. I am importing a car with some mods, so I will get incredible shit if I don't get them, even if they aren't major mods.

oh crap hahah didn't realise the typo well now you know what happens when you mix just 2 letters.

yeah couldn't afford the DVD its $100 extra cause someone else jumps with you.

yeah prolly about 85 in a 80 zone i'd admit that but heck knows what the guy in front was doing and i ain't taking a rear ender that i'll be up shit creek with.

Did you do a tandom jump? static line jump? or accelerated freefall?

the later is most expensive but the best - no big fat guy strapped to the back of you as there is with tandom, and static line theres no freefall - boring :cheers:

Soo much to take in when you do it tho, you just get so overwellmed..

      This is the part I was unprepared for. I mean, thinking about it now, the first day I collected my car from the importer someone posted a photo of it on the highway to an online JDM page which my friend then sent me. I drove straight to the office to pick up some things and was immediately swarmed by about ten college kids -  "how much power" "why no wing" etc. The next couple times I went out I didn't really notice anything, there was a "why no wing" at a service area at some point. Then during the fourth time out driving at the Nurburgring I got the "do a drift" - the bastard cut it out in this clip. The title in itself is a red flag. As you may have guessed, I am not a fan of the attention. This leads me to wondering what to do with the car in the future; I'll see how this year goes and it may be garaged, which it mostly is already, or maybe even sent back to Japan  to also be garaged and driven occasionally on visits. Fortunately my daily is as interesting as drying paint.

      Has this been converted to manual by any chance?

      I couldn't get this to work right, New clean IACV, coolant seems to flow and solenoid functions, but again as soon as I plug it in the idle raises, I ran the car for a good 1/2 hour messing around with various things it, no vac leaks. At one point with the IACV plugged in I was able with the adjustment in the side of IACV turned all the way in get it idle down a little to around 1000, but no lower, and it would surge, I unplugged the IACV engine rpms drop to about 350, turned the adjustment about 3 turns in , set idle to around 800 rpms' and it idles smooth. I set the idle stop screw abut the same so it cant drop below under load. the engine starts, restarts, with no load or with a load seems to run fine. I will have to leave it like this for now as I cant get it to function correctly with the IACV plugged in. One other thing I discovered that might be the reason for some of the issues, the engine in the car is a RB25det neo from a Stagea along with the Stagea ECU. so alot of wiring, plumbing etc that is typically there in a R34 is not.

      R33 GTR front knuckles not lining up

      By LZY33R · Posted

      Hi all, Trying to seek some assistance with my issue. I'm currently doing a complete overhaul of my suspension / driveline, on my r33 gtr and have completed stripped down the front assembly. I had purchased a new pair of front knuckles (the painted silver ones in the pictured) They were advertised by the shop aswell as other retailers online to be compatible with the entire 4wd R chassis, however when trying to fit the new pair, they don't line up with the ball joints (from the lower control arm) and the steering tie rod.  The other knuckle pictured is what came off the car, everything fits up to it perfectly, however I've been unable to figure what variant they are from originally.
