  1. Ditto. I agree, the differences (pfft what differences) are so minor that the extra $4-5k could be put into a bodykit + wheels or a decent amount of engine mods.
  2. * HKS Pod Filter T/S R33 GTS-T. * Ready to bolt straight onto the standard AFM (4 bolts) * Included is 2 brackets to mount the filter in 1 position using the factory Airbox screws and holes. * Most likely needs a new filter element as this 1 hasn't been changed in over 35,000km. * COD/DD/Pickup Make your offer...
  3. Ahh sh1t my bad, yes i will look into it immediately.

  9. Yup I did, I gotta chase someone down who might have those details u were after
  10. Looks quite nice Predator, infact you did it the same colour as what i did to mine about 6mths ago when i was bored 1 sunday afternoon. Believe it or not I even bought some more paint today so i could spray some more parts tomorrow night. I bought maroon (as close to the factory Wine Red colour as I could get) to spray the rocker covers and black to spray any visible suspensiion or underbody parts. So much fun can be had with $25 worth of spray paint hehe Heres the pics that I took of mine ages ago: (http://skylines.pnc.com.au/pics/ben/gold/)
  11. But it doesn't matter what your NCB is if your only insuring it with 3rd party.
  12. I just had a look over my insurance policy (Famous Classic Insurance). * 21yrs old living in Western Sydney. * 1995 Nissan Skyline Coupe. * $25,500 or market value (whichever is lesser). * Usage: Private/Daily. * 40% NCB = $3,036 (or $2,760 if I pay it upfront). Basic Excess = $1,000. Additional Excess = $2,000 (theft and/or malicious damage). Plus $2,000 single vehicle accident excess. So that means: * Car is stolen = $2,000 upfront (or $5,036 over 1yr) * An at fault accident = $3,000 upfront (or $6,036 over 1yr) That means if I was to have an accident i'd have to do more than $6,000 damage for insurance to be worthwhile. Personally i'd rather spend 1 years worth of insurance ($3,306 in my case) and go all out on security devices and then just sit back and pray that nothing major goes wrong for a good 3 or 4 years. The only problem with this idea is that if you haven't held full comprehensive insurance anytime in the last 365 days your NCB drops all the way back to scratch and you have to build it up again.
  13. These (and original R34 GTR and TE-37's) have gotta be the only wheels that I really really really like on Skylines. From what I can workout using http://babelfish.altavista.com/ Plating: 17" = 30,000ea ($1,446) 18" = 35,000ea ($1,688) Gold + Cancer Gun: 17" = 20,000ea ($964) 18" = 25,000ea ($1,205) A set of gold 18" for me please... Groupbuy !!!
  14. If you look around you can get em for like $2800 with crap rubber. The more you pay the better quality they will be and also more likely that they will come with rubber.
  15. Nope ! Drove past about 4 cop cars on the way down (they were attending an accident on the Federal Hwy where a car had gone off the side of the Hwy and was on its roof. I also passed about 4 Hwy Patrol cars on the way back to Sydney but they had already pulled cars over and were writing tickets etc. Mate thats bullshit. I seriously wouldn't even bother "fixing" that. Just go to your local Blue Slip mechanic and have a talk to him and explain that the battery is in the factory position and he will probably just sign it off. Do you have to get a "partial" or a "full" inspection?
  16. My plugs haven't been checked in 35,000km, thats why I plan on checking them later tonight or tomorrow night when everything cools down abit just to see what condition they are in and what they are gapped to.
  17. Yup I have this problem also. When I left Canberra (headed for Sydney) on Sunday afternoon I was 1 needle line below 1/2 and thought that was pretty damn good mileage but by the time I got onto the Federal Hwy (10km) it was only 1 needle above the 1/4 line and thats where it sat for most of the trip home.
  18. I always drive my car until the needle is below the last line and most of the time its only 1 needle width above the top of the "E". Even at this point it has a good 5-7 Litres left which at normal driving is around 50-70km. I always try and aim for 100km per quarter but the top half of the tank is much harder to do this than the bottom half of the tank
  19. Don't spose anyone has found any pics of these rims on a skyline ?
  20. Hrmm I might check my plugs tomorrow and see how they look compared to the plugs in that PDF. Thanks for that info MegaGTS4
  21. Just get 1 from the groupbuy section on here !
