  1. Hello all, Had my first trackday with my car which involved having an instructor take the car out for a spin and then give you pointers etc. The instructor being a current v8 supercar driver, decided to take my car to its limit around the track to the point where there was brake fade occurring after 3 laps haha Anyways, after the track day Ive noticed that my brake pedal is very hard now. You need to apply a lot more effort in order to stop the car. After the initial push in of the brake pedal, a lot more pressure has to be applied, with the pedal barely moving, to come to a stop. Once at a stop, I can push it in a mil to hear the callipers creaking (pistons?) Any idea what could be the cause of the hard brake pedal and creaking callipers when at stop? Im assuming the pistons are playing up? Any help would be great! Cheers

  5. you mean there is more than one Shan out there? (assuming more than 100 people driving Golfs O_o) May God have mercy on us all
  6. fuuuuuuuuuuu looks like ill be racing on sandown in the wet this saturday WTB: guards
  7. ah ye thats right! Pricey though! I got 5x500ml cans + a free glass for $12.99 on brady road. I think its $4~ in Dan Murphys?
  8. +1 Something about adding fruit to a beer makes it a bit girly haha I see it no different to the pre-mixed vodkas with passionfruit and all sorts of other fruity flavours
  9. If you after an awesome beer try Zywiec. Polish beer, will only find in specialty shops of the bottle-o on Brady road, Dandenong Every Polak will swear by its awesomeness taste. A good German beer is Hasseröder. A lot of German towns have their own local brewery. This is the beer of Wernigerode. Really nice beer!
  10. too many metro fags in here. Drink a VB and get some hair on your chest German beer is win. Especially the 500ml standard size, was hard swapping back to regular 300ml size Going back to Germany in November, so can enjoy the goods once moar!
  11. tis' what i do. Maximum exposure!
  12. fact: rb25 starter motor is direct replacement to rb20. Should open up your options. http://www.project32.net/?p=14

    Spotted this on Stud road today.
  14. Look what I spotted today O_o
  15. yeah this is what im going to get with the GTST bracket. http://www.gcg.com.au/index.php?page=shop....1&Itemid=53 Just need to pick the psi setting on the drop down menu! decisions decisions!
  16. yeah standard hks actuator is about 14psi. Needs moar nice! Nismo tuned ECU. Would love to see the fuel map for that. those stickers are JDM! Stick them on your forehead.
  17. After going through a full epa, defects are a walk in a park, so fk it. Im over trying to please the government. No matter how hard you try they still shaft you. Least if i tuck them under the guards I wont get another "wheels protruding outside guards" defect haha XXpsi actuator + red painted injectors should keep EPA away for a long time. Still deciding which actuator to get. My rebuilt hks2530 has zero shaftplay after 2yrs when running 15psi. Might push it to 17psi if i find an arc/apexi return-flow front mount. Still got my water/meth injection system sitting in the cupboard. Might fit that in for some 22psi fun.
  18. something like this? Although i remember he was running crazy negative camber on the rears to tuck them in...
  19. I think its time to fix my mexican fitment... 17x9 +30 with 225/45 for front (upgrade 8inch to 9inch) 17x9 +30 with 235/45 for rear (downsize my 255/40's) and moar lows? Find me a good pic of r33 gtr rims on r32 gtst. Same rim specs. kthnxbye
  20. I really hate that excuse. Just cause its a daily doesnt mean shit. Majority of skylines on this forum are daily and they arent all rolling around in D. Every auto owner says that excuse... Not paying you out specifically just the majority of auto drivers haha If its a specific, specialised problem, you are probably better off doing your own investigating/research to work out what it could be and go down that track. Mechanics dont have time to spend billions of hours working on a problem they will never see in another car. If you want to be exclusive you will need to research yourself else drop a manual box into there and be done with it.
  21. Hello all, Thought I might share how I wired up GTR injectors to an RB20 R32 GTST. The method was adopted from Roy's earlier GTR injector wiring guide (http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Gtr-Injectors-Rb20det-t62674.html) but managed to find an easier way to the whole process. The method involves finding the 12v pin on the injector connector by using a multimeter. This avoids stripping back the whole loom to find the common wire. The 12v can also be used off the plug making the process much easier. Thanks
  22. haha i shattered one of my connectors when changing sparkplugs hence the links and details are still fresh in my mind Happy to help
  23. Cant remember if ive posted it in here before; This is the method I came up with for the GTR injector wiring. Much easier than the explained method in this thread! Pretty much, find the common 12v wire using a multimetre and wire directly off the plug. Saves the effort of stripping back all the wiring etc
  24. http://www.justjap.com/store/product.php?p...=538&page=1 Or ask your local Nissan dealer. I got mine same day from Nissan for same price.
  25. hahah ye FTG road just after Bunnings. I was like LOL wtf! I dont understand how he going to remove things off the trailer lol Did a u-turn just take a photo for the lols
