  1. I resisted the urge to go cannon and went for a twin outlet (squared tips) Zetti exhaust when I did the upgrade about 18 months ago. I also went the Coby Extractor route, and upgraded to stainless hi-flow cat while I was at it. I even sent the extractors & exhaust to Brissy to be HPC coated just for good measure... Now it all sounds VERY loud, particularly inside for passengers. I'm putting the noise factor down to the extractors more than the exhaust, but either way it's damn loud! From what I've heard and experienced, the raspy noise never seems to leave N/As... you can only make the exhaust louder to drown out the annoying rasp when accelerating. Believe me I've tried everything I can think of to get rid of it with my car.
  2. Kit looks pretty good - I have just bought my R34 GTT, and while it's currently getting complied I'm looking for the right kit to put on it before the import yard organises the respray job for me... Impul certainly appears to be the front-runner at the moment. Can I ask where you sourced it from, and how much?
  3. Crap! Just bought my R34 with stock kit and have just decided that I will probably go Impul for the front bar... missed it by that much!
  4. I bought my S1 R33 (Nov '93) from Motorman 3 years ago (through Derek) - I know it wasn't the cheapest I could get one for, but it was my first Skyline and I was looking for someone to steer me in the right direction, and for $14,000 on road, complied, registered, I was happy - particularly with the service! Derek went out of his way to find me a car with ALL of my requested specs, sent me options with auction sheets prior purchasing, and he even bought the car with no obligation from me to buy it! After compliance, he even sent me over to a Springwood exhaust shop and put an aftermarket exhaust on it for me - no charge. I've had NOTHING go wrong with my (older model) R33 to this date (touch wood!). I am now in the market for an R34 GTT, and have had no hesitation in going back to Motorman - they will take back the R33 as a trade for a very reasonable price too. I'd be interested in hearing what dodgy things they're doing Markimak - PM me please. (it also seems strange that your gf's family would go back to them many times if all of their purchases were junk)
  5. I think it was a dark blue or greeny colour - can't be too sure tho, as I was just coming off the roundabout (just before the bike shop) at speed... It definitely had plates similar to LXUSS though, and had some decent sized chromies - that's why I thought it was you.
  6. Your car has now been resprayed has it not? I'm sure I drove past it on Caloundra Rd on Monday (parked outside bike shop)... I thought it looked in pretty good shape when I glimpsed it...

    Ie 7 Help

    Have you tried holding CTRL or CTRL+ALT when clicking the link? If it's actually opening a new tab then this shouldn't be your problem, but try it anyway I guess...
  8. No, some other Ian with a GTS-t would already have that!
  9. Spotted 955-IVC (?) in carpark near Citi Bar/Restaurant at Alexandra Headlands... looked like Dynamix if my memory serves me correctly.
  10. Last call - I'll be having this car picked up and taken to the wreckers on Wednesday (8/11) if no one wants it. I'm moving house this week and the car can't come with me, so let me know if you're interested in saving this poor old Celica from death!
  11. Glad I could help!
  12. Ska, your shat is freaky!
  13. No problem - take your time!
  14. Sent you a PM a couple of days ago Jason... just let me know if you're still interested.
  15. No problem Sambo - let me know when you're ready to go and we'll sort something out. I know how excited you get when you first receive your new toy! Be prepared for lotsa money being poured into it though! Where abouts on the coast are ya?
