  1. I find the best gearbox oil to use is "search for it" thats what i used in my gearbox this week.. shifts much smoother now
  2. If you can outrun a speeding bullet... you may come and try to take my car... If they offered the entire manual for a set price id be happy.. this Sections stuff is crapola
  3. For US $5 a section..... i think not
  4. All i can say is dont bother with Force Feedback... Xbox (original) doesnt support Force Feedback.. wasnt programmed into the console.. p.s. Any no-name wheel will generally suck.. Get something like Logitech, Thrustmaster etc..
  5. Why not just share the knowledge so everyone can enjoy?
  6. or you could try these links that work http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=16255
  7. Just did my gearbox oil... 3.7lts of Castrol VMX80 and a tube of Nulon G70.. Shifts so much smoother now. Redline shockproof is not recommended for cars with syncros.. So up to you i guess..
  8. Got that same noise.. only when the car is under big load im guessing? and completely goes away over 2000-2500rpm? Im guessing either tailshaft.. or rear diff.. Having mine looked at early jan.. will report back with what i find p.s. my 2nd and 4th gear syncros are going too
  9. Thats a different setup to the R33 My scratches are on the inside.. Next time i pull the door trim off ill take some pictures..
  10. Hey everyone... On the 23 of december santa gave me my gift early and decided its time for my gearbox to go sour.. Fat red bastard..! Just wondering if anyone can recommend somewhere in melbourne (pref north east) to have my gearbox rebuilt?/fixed.. Its making a fair amount of noise (guessing bearings)... and crunches from 3rd-4th under load Im going to change the oil today to VMX80 and see if that makes any difference.. but id still like to know where to get it rebuilt.. and the kinda cost i should be expecting Thanks in advance, MotoMan
  11. generally not with a microfibre... Most waxes can't be used in the sun either
  12. well one would ask where you would be redlining 4th anyway.. im going to assume a track or dragstrip.. Redline shockproof oil is not recommended for gearboxes with syncros... even redline state this. Castrol VMX80 is a better alternative.. all you're really doing is masking a problem that ultimately needs to be fixed
  13. Better pictures of the rims? And what do you mean not 100% on offset but are correct for gtst? The offset doesnt suit a r33 gtst?
  14. backup... if it falls through! WOuld suit my silver s2 perfectly
  15. Working fine? Any probs? Ill take it if you're in melbourne
  16. Reason for sale of Active LSD? I have one in my skyline... thinking of buying a 2nd one for parts... What are you replacing it with and why? Cheers, MotoMan
  17. If you want to sell... and they fit an r33 id be interested
  18. Thats an awesome tip... provided your felt pads arent worn out already.. I assumed that was the part number for the R32? is it the exact same part in the R33?
  19. Well we arent in stage 3 yet... you can still use a High Pressure at home.. or if you like... go to carlovers and wash.. come home.. wipe over with microfibre to remove any dust that may have landed on your car in the short drive home... Start waxing.. or you can take your wax with you if its one that can be applied in the sun If you want a quick easy polish/protectant.. Turtle Wax ICE seems to do the job.. Nice and easy to apply and remove.. Shines like a mofo and hides swirls, Can be used on taillights, rubbers, headlights and also clear coat safe.. can be used in DIRECT SUNLIGHT! Ive got a whole garage full of various products for detailing.. Do family/friends cars as well.. I enjoy making a car shine like it should Meguairs NXT seems good too.. and Mothers 3 step system... (more for a car thats had no loving in a while)
  20. Spend a little on good quality surface protectants/waxes... Once applied it takes as little as $1-$2 at carlovers.. high pressure soap.. high pressure rinse.. spot free rinse Perfectly clean.. as long as you dont let the dirt build up on your car.. Works for me..
  21. Im trying to find the part numbers... for the inside ones.. As i am most likely able to get them below trade price... After that ill figure out how to remove them and ill post a write up with pics etc
  22. Im actually referring to the inside pads... they are the ones causing the scratching.. And ive got no idea if they are able to be replaced or not..
  23. spot on... But you can loosen the current ones to prevent any further scratching.. Anyone know the part number for the R33 Parts? (the little felt pads) Would like to fix this and retint my windows
  24. Bird crap needs to come off while its still steaming!.. It will eat your paint so quickly... Thats why my car lives in the garage
