  1. Incredible effort on this two year journey! Read the whole thread, took about an hour but was worth it.... The Highs.. The Lows... the Excitement.... wondering how it was going to end... Hell, 10.38@132Mph is a happy ending for now!
  2. Thanks Aaron, last time I went round PI was in 2000 with BMWCCV when my car was stock with some boost and exhaust @2.040. Love to do it again now with heaps more mods and no speed cut at 180K's, now if I can olny get the damn thing running again by then
  3. So when are you getting the widebody JD 2.6 ? Looked at my 4G63BT with the SOHC head off for the last 8 years under covers yesterday and could not belive how small it is compared to the RB20DET, yet it made more power when it was going with hardly any mods- 170RWKW!
  4. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...;hl=lcd+consult This is the one I am buying..... soon...... I hope......
  5. So the earth moved for those that werent on honeymoon in that hotel as well hey? Sounds like a good excuse to stay in the room all day to me! ;D At least you will remember it 20-30 years down the road. Hope you and yours enjoy whats left of the holiday and that was not your rental out there in the carpark.
  6. I could tell you the problem, but you might as well buy the latest HPI and learn about it like I did
  7. Anyone spot the cop in the blue ford parked sideways near the normanby rd intersect on leaving? Too bad the hot Porsche owner didnt as he gunned it pass all the imports/VLs. Last seen the cop was hot on his heels
  8. Hey Peter, lookin forward to the finished product as I just replaced my diagnosed as faulty Knock Sensors by someone who will remain nameless! -NOT an easy task as had to remove all intake manifolds etc to do them. STILL same problem of intermittent not firing all cyls and timing /fuel going out to lunch, so hope your LCD Consult Box will help to contribute to solve problem! Please send asap
  9. Go the GTR! You can easily turn off the AWD by pulling a fuse or putting in a switch to turn it on or off. It will be more expensive initially but you will spend more to get the GTSt to anywhere near the same dynamics in the long run. If it does not have a sunroof you should be right height wise or you could fit lower seats if not. Thought you guy's could not have Skyline GTR's there in the land of the free
  10. Guy's hope you had a good run... here's the pics I took
  11. Damn that bend was known as dangerous - looked like they would take it flat out and the tree should have had some tyres etc on it just to be sure. Both Brocky and Steve seem to be the unluckiest Aussies this year under the circumstances. RIP two GREAT Australian's!
  12. Just used VICFAST to ship a IMB PC Tower Server to QLD and it cost $62 for 25Kg -77cmx55cmx30cm (+ $1500 Ins for $60) Seemed to be good value after looking around and client was happy to pay it.
  13. Yeah Geoff, the old wives tale it happens in three's, certainly hope not! Makes me almost wish I owned a Holden to justify my grief at this sad news.
  14. Could we have a collection for Brocky's favourite charity as well? Where is there an area that will be big enough able to hold the cars attending.. IT WILL BE HUGE!!
  15. 3AW still cant confirm but CH#7 just confirmed apparently. RIP Brocky!!
  16. Not 100% confirmed yet....
  17. What Craved says is probably not wrong, but I did do mine when head off for other reasons but unfortunately did other stuff as well so could not measure gains. Cost was about $850 inc new valve stem guides and seats. Will be dynoing again soon so we will see if it could have contributed in some way if I get some decent numbers.
  18. Sounds like a good enough reason there alone, to go! Might be more interesting than AutoSalon? EDIT:Ooops : Last weekend!

  20. Put me down for BOOST Adj. AND Controller.
  21. Thanks Brenton, you really have ruined my day. Wondered what my GTS4 was worth and now I know the depressing truth after paying $33,000 eight years ago and another $15k on top its now not worth the price of the mods alone! But I have this strange inclination to buy yours as well as its a great BARGAIN!
  22. what sort of money do ALL these go for?
  23. If I can use my old XBox online to play it would be my Tribes2 tag: au50yrOldFart
  24. I think it would look better but before doing that I would do the much easier and more effective replacememnt of your front plate with a much smaller profile one mooved up out of the mouth area onto the bar. Cant see an FMIC but does not matter, it would look better.
