  1. Na , go the Jap drift look:cool: I've got 235 's stretched onto the 10'' rears of my 300 zx TTDD ( thats Twin Turbo Drift Dog ) Cuts out any sidewall flex but no rim protection from kerbs. Ken
  2. Unless you have a major syncro problem then Light weight Shockproof will be good enough. I absolutely swear by it cos I was looking down the barrell of a $3k gearbox rebuild for the 3-4 upshift problem. 4Litres and $100 of LWSP oil later and problem solved. Ask Mikey, he drove the GTR before and after I sold it to him. Also fixed a similar problem in my 300ZX TT DD. Ken
  3. Those three guys should have been smarter and realise they were going to be set up. Would any sane person do doughnuts etc if they were told that this will be a slot on safe drivers on Current Despair. More than likely was told to go onto the pan ,have some fun and the camera guys will give them some private footage which they then used for the article. As for the incar, I bet Luff egged them on and told them to push it past there limits. As for Ian Luff, outspoken critic and showman, PFFFT, anything to get his mug on TV. Ken
  4. What !!, your asking ME. Don't forget I binned one:D Seriously , you gotta put faith in the ATTESSA and if you have the power slide on in a corner, apply about 1/2 as much lock as you think is necessary and wait for the front torque to come in.Takes a bit of getting used to . Ken
  5. Pimp?? I'm sure Kyles will be happy with that !! BTW , I'm a mechanic , courier driver, car and parts dabbler ( read importer occassionally ), advanced driver training consultant and any other damn thing that enables me to eke out an existence in this third world economy country:mad: Ken PS I know NOTHING about computers which on this forum is pretty rare:D
  6. Lightweight shockproof ( the blue stuff ).Heavy weight was the last resort but slows the shift . BTW , it also cured the upshift syncro problem on my 300zx TT which is virtually the same as a 33 GTST gearbox. Ken
  7. So troy, was the mechanic brent at the place in mandurah we were talking about ? If it is , I will give him heaps at the Harvey rally on the weekend !! BTW , is the front mount in yet ?? Ken

    Coughing?

    Cold weather = more boost. You could be hitting the boost cut. Ken
  9. Thanks for all the enquiries and PM's but this beautiful car is sold to a lucky W Aussie. Ken
  10. No , I've seen him drive and he would even worry me sitting in the Nav seat Ken
  11. Oh bugger , and I was looking for someone to sit in the silly, err , I mean nav seat for the Classic rally Ken
  12. Nah but I heard he has turned to the dark side and is looking hard at a 32 GTR, which to the non converted is the first and purest kind:worship: Ken
  13. Jesus Chr##st, he could have had my Grade 3.5 R32 GTR for that !! Ken
  14. And inside LH. Take a close look at the screen where the tree hit it. PS we both walked away but me a bloody lot poorer Ken
  15. Some more damage . It still hurts every time I see these Ken
  16. How to turn 12 o/r into DNF in about 5 seconds Ken
  17. Getting the plate has nothing to do with doing the work. If they are a VICCAA member, they can apply for the plate when the car comes into the shop. If they aren't, the work usually has to be done and signed off by the engineer before the plate can be applied for.Either way , they can do the belts, cat, repeaters, brake light etc whenever, they don't need the plate to start the work Ken
  18. My personal opinion is you will find them both good. Jan and Hanson at X Speed have built some killer rex's and evo's as well as skylines. Things have changed a bit at Speedworks with Basil Chow now running the w/shop and I have found him to be very competent and knowledgeable as he has a gtst RB26 he is building. Trouble with them is getting hold of John or Ivan. Also some of you may knock them but CRed w/shop under Lumpy Campbell is another one to consider.
  19. Brett send us your email addy and I will send pics Ken
  20. OK, what's the quickest WA 1/4 mile time for a Skyline of any type?? Has need4speed or Techone run a 1/4 mile time yet. Ken
  21. Nismo or Just Jap, about $550 roughly. Ken
  22. Yea, same one as on the cruise. Had Mike bring the lovely naomi( his wife ) today to look at the machine to try and convince her it's what she needs. lol He had better not do a Buffy on it if he buys it or both R34 and I will kill him !! Ken
  23. 48 K , I don't think so, for an R32 ??? Ken
  24. Would be very interested but your avatar says R32 GTST and unfortunately they are different. Surely some wreckers have got a R32 GTS 260/300kmh speedo ? Ken
