  1. lol my uni books are my last things to purchase, after my clutch and suspension work haha. Dont expect to get a grip on uni after you purchase either of those 2 cars haha Im 90% sure you wont have any trouble with the R32 on P's. The famous Pett*et told me himself that they overlook r32's because its 126kw, that was derived from 1250kg and estimation of 158kw. I doubt you would be refused a payment due to 1kw over limit, besides not like a 13yr old r32 is making 158kw anyways, so you could easliy argue a drop of 1-2kw in power due to age and/or aus fuel etc If insurance companies are paying out r33 drivers with holes cut for fmic & illegal mods etc, i dont think they would care about a theoretical value of 1kw over for the r32 If you are still paranoid have a look at this document police have; no mention of r32, what pett*et thinks is his opinion but this is an official document
  2. ah k, so no worries then! Guess its r32 time! You've had the ca before, why not try a different car/engine and expand your knowledge/experience in different cars. But if you are attached to a 180sx then get something which will make you happy .
  3. as i said above, the series 2 r32 weighs more due to the side intrusion bars in the doors. The question is wether the police have in their system the correct weight for the series 2. What is the unladed mass and power of the ca18?
  4. you could always call insurance company and ask if they have a weight/power value for the car and/or if its classified as high powered vehicle for P-Platers. Other than that, as the cop stated, there is no concrete data on imports so they dont have record of power (hence they asked me for estimate) etc r32 ftw!
  5. As his calculations showed 126 (using his weight etc) he said due to the small difference they overlook the fine. Although i argued with him its legal and gave up after he said no fine haha
  6. also note that, when i was pulled over by pett ete, he claimed the R32 was illegal for P-Platers. His computer stated unladed mass of 1250kg and my estimated stock power of 158kw makes it 126kw/tonne Although this could be argued as the series 2 r32's are heavier due to the side intrusion bars, which if we estimate to 1280kg makes it P-Plate legal. I doubt their system has different weights for series 1/2 and just classified mine as 1250kg
  7. my brake fluid is between low and high.. When i swerve car from left to right the light turns on. Any other suggestions before i fill it up to full mark?
  8. In my opinion I wouldnt trust a 7-8k R32, although i could be wrong and there could be good examples out there. I just dont want to see mine sell for $8k Good condition stock r32's usually sell around $10k-$11k Expect a long wait to find a good condition R32, they are hard to find and I spent over a year trying to find a good one. R32 fuel consumption; I get about 12L per 100km. My r32 consists of; catback, pod, r34 smic, stock boost (10psi) = 159.9kw atw (sau dyno day) What uni do you go to? Monash Clayton? Good luck with the car hunting
  9. Mothers Chrome Polish can also be used as a glass polish. Read the writing on the back of the product and it states it can be used on glass. Old labeling used to say chrome+glass but they changed it as people were skeptical that one product can treat 2 different surfaces.
  10. First time i noticed it whilst exiting a corner. Will give a proper look tomorrow morning btw adam, i sorta fixed my ac haha Looked like the rod had unclipped from the plastic clip, popped it back on and it worked. Now it has decided to lock it self up. The motor tries to rotate but doesnt move anywhere. I think i killed it for sure now lawl. I think the blend door may be getting stuck and motor not enough power to open/close
  11. cheers for the link, just checked my fluid doesnt seem low. Will give a proper look tomorrow in the day
  12. search says it could be low brake fluid although i seem to have plenty. I do have low rear brake pads? Could this be a sensor to indicate low pads? read on google this is a possibility on some cars.
  13. Hey, As i was turning right on a roundabout my parkbrake light turned on and then turned off after a second?? Nothing was disrupted whilst driving, it just turned on and then off... no idea what happened haha anyone have any ideas? r32 gtst Cheers Patrick
  14. 1982 Skyline haha - i know, its a skyline! 1989 Skyline R32 - the dash shows 0 legit kilometres haha Skyline R32 1993 Skyline R32 I can never find a r32 coupe commercial
  15. How low can i go without scrubbing? Curently have some shocks/springs which may drop height down to 340mm link fixed now
  16. Will these fit on the R32 gtst? I dont want to lip guards and will i have any troubles with scrubbing? Looking for wheels which will cause no legal problems R32 GTST F: 17x8 +30 with 235/45 R: 17x9 +30 with 235/40 front wheel (stock offset 25) The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 18mm LESS The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 8mm back wheel (stock offset 38) The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 5mm LESS The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 21mm Thanks

    r32 reprezent~!
  20. Looking into some uras ns-01 which is basically the same design, only japanese Phantom are yours silver or chrome?
  21. What rims are those on the car? Are they correct fit on the r32 gtst? no spacers etc?
  22. The one main rule is to always leave fitting wheels to the experts. If you took your wheels to a tyre shop and got them fitted for $20, i hardly doubt you would have the problems you are experiencing now. Im running on spacers and a simple wheel balance+alignment has my car driving straight and smooth.
  23. easy off bam, and the grease is gone edit; doesnt say it works with pc's so i fail http://free.3dtracking.net/howcan.aspx
