  1. more updates made, check the following thread for the latest price drops and what's still up for grabs: http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/index.p...mp;fromsearch=1
  2. I initially thought it was traffic monitoring too, but every pole or every second pole???, and only in the section between Church Street and the toll booth?... doesn't sound right for plain jane traffic monitoring
  3. I noticed every pole or every second pole has a camera on it Anybody know what it's for? Seems like super overkill x10 to have so many of them
  4. 595RSR is priced between r-comps and streets, and it sits where all the other street cross track tyres sit in terms of price and performance. KU36 can't be beat for the price but I don't understand when people say stuff like "If I'm paying double the price of KU36 for X or Y tyre then they better be double the performance!" There's not much that I can think of when talking about performance, where you get double the goodness for double the price - it doesn't work that way unfortunately.
  5. Definitely use the smaller tyre/rim and upping the pressure to 40psi or even 45psi, others run even higher if you're keen. Is your diff single spinning?
  6. Not sure what you mean by "strengthening" it? They're all R200 and GTR's have thicker shafts.
  7. The general consensus here is that the more you spend on tyres the better they will be. So ku36 < 595rsr < a proper R-compund semislick. There is no comparison when you goto an R-comp, even the top range potenza RE-01R / neova AD08's / direzza star specs don't measure up when put next to their racing compound cousins. If you want a mainly street cross track tyre then they're the ones to go for, but if it's for mostly track then R-compound is the only way to go. They're not all that super expensive either
  8. prices dropped and stuff, check out this link for latest updates: http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/index.p...howtopic=424488 feel free to post here, there or PM me
  9. the usual things to go wrong here is the bearing, carrier height, and clutch height. bearing and carrier - mechanic probably used the wrong ones and also overlubed it. clutch height - rebuilder probably machined off a few mil off the basket/cage since you've removed 2 discs. after a quick read of the thread it sounds like the bearing is the wrong one and the carrier is too short. post a few pics of the bearing and the clutch in pieces, that'll help more.

There aren't any scratches on them, gutter grazing has been machined off and now has a nice polished lipped finish to it, with proper semi slicks with good to very good tread remaining. Fronts are 17x8.5" and offset is +30, wearing 225/45/17 yokohama ADVAN A048 semi slicks with ~80% tread left, check out the pics! and the rears are 17x9.5" and offset is +35, wearing 235/45/17 bridgestone RE55S semi slicks with ~50% tread left, check out the pics! I store them in wheel and tyre bags, which all go in the garage. First in best dressed, happy to put them on hold if you're happy to put down a deposit. I'm in Sydney/Homebush and if you pay for shipping I will be happy to get quotes, organise a courier and package them, to any part of Australia. That's about $5000 in wheels and tyres and I only want $3200negotiable for them PRICE DROPPED: $3100 PRICE DROPPED: $3000 ============================================================= TYRES TYRES 225/50/16, set of 4, falken azenis st115, ~40% no nails, no pics yet Price: $350 235/45/17, pair, Advan A046 ~50% (best tyres in the list IMHO) no nails Price: $170 PRICE DROPPED: $150 215/45/17, pair, Falken Zeix ~80% has nail repairs, no pics Price: $200 245/45/17, pair, Continental contisport II ~65% has nail repairs Price: $130 PRICE DROPPED: $100 235/40/18 Pirelli PZero CORSA semislicks, proper R-COMPOUND, 60 AA A BRAND NEW never fitted as used on the most hardcore sports cars ever produced (Ferrari 360, Lamborghini Gallardo, Porsche GT2 & GT3, Aston Martin V12 Vantage, etc), made in Italy. Each one costs $600+, a set costs $2400+. Price: $1550 brand new never fitted, no pics but it looks like this in my garage: ============================================================= I also have some spare tough plastic tyre/wheel protectors that are perfect for storing your tyres and wheels and equally as excellent for track days - no more dirty interior and no more wasting bed sheets... just throw them on and away you go! Very easy to put on and take off, it's elastic so it's a universal fit (let me know your tyre size and I'll try it on something I have to make sure it fits), and has a nice hole in the middle so you can actually hold onto your wheel/tyre easily unlike the fully-enclosed wheel bags. Price: $10 each ============================================================= 3" one piece tailshaft 3" one piece tailshaft length from tip to tip is 125cm, which was used with the s15/r33 powertune gearbox conversion kit, it's made from all new parts and servicable uni's. it fits z32, r33 and r34 gearboxes (FS5W30A) Included in the price will be a FULL REBALANCE and if you want/need/like it can also be shortened to any length you require - so basically a brand new tailshaft for cheap. This is because I have already paid for a rebalance, because it was thought that the tailshaft was causing a vibration. Because of the vibrations the car was hardly driven. I never got around to fixing it and it's now uninstalled and sitting in the garage. A handy tip to know is that the flange on the sr20 diff is exactly the same as the flange on the 2nd half of a factory sr20 tailshaft, so if you'd like a 2-peice tailshaft for your gearbox conversion here's the perfect opportunity! Price: $599 including full rebalance and shortening (if required) Sydney/Homebush, can deliver anywhere. ============================================================= Sydney/Homebush Sydney/Homebush Sydney/Homebush Sydney/Homebush Sydney/Homebush ALL THE PICTURES ARE HERE, PLEASE FOLLOW THE LINK HERE: ALL THE PICTURES ARE HERE, PLEASE FOLLOW THE LINK HERE: ALL THE PICTURES ARE HERE, PLEASE FOLLOW THE LINK HERE: http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/index.p...howtopic=420606

  18. I decided to give my wheels a clean but i wasn't all that successful, attached is a before and after shot... now as you can see the brake dust has made a permanent home in the corner there (one of many corners actually) and so I'm looking for suggestions on ways to clean it, anything other than painting over it Let this be a lesson for the lazy lol
