  1. C'mon Duncan...... i'm still waiting for you to put about $3k into it so you can show John what a set of r33 tail lights look like into turn 1 at EC.
  2. Yup everything you said is correct. I need wheels badly eh.... I park their coz their is no risk of people bashing my doors, its out in the open and their is always a constant stream of cars going past to deter any theives. Gimme a hola next time you see me/it...
  3. Yup as above it has a aftermarket front bar, skirts and rear wing. All its missing is a nice 400R rear bar (about $600ish fitted) and that would be damn nice. Heres some before/after pics of my r33 with similar side skirts (they are 400R), im leaving the front bar standard (gonna customise it) but have a GTR Copy wing waiting to go on. http://skylines.pnc.com.au/pics/ben/bodykit/
  4. inark get with it bro, I got a different motor for each day of the week :bahaha:
  5. I started with the MX-5, now im using the 92 SX. My rating is 69/111 so not too far to go before I get that GTR, hopefully it actually sounds like a GTR coz the other cars don't sound very realistic.
  6. Ahh so its not just me missing emails, cool !
  7. Yup interesting reads.... I don't think i'd ever use Brembo's unless they came on my car already, simply not worth the price.
  8. I will be on holidays so I might visit this the track this day to watch/time/cheer. If anybody wants a passenger for the day gimme a yell please.
  9. Thats what I thought....
  10. I'm still curious as to what actually causes axle tramp tho... I mean my car is 100% in the dry on the street, i get slight axle tramp in the wet on the street but on the 1/4 i get major major axle tramp all with exactly the same setup. Is it stiff suspension, soft suspension, faulty part, etc etc
  11. benm

    Wish me luck!

    Because I live closer to Roy it would be easier on him if he just dropped off his car at my place. Roy i'll PM you my address
  12. IMHO the SAU website should be hosted in the USA where it is much much more powerful and much less expensive
  13. Nah i took it fairly easy for the first 2-3wks, I never do burnouts or drop the clutch either which would preserve it quite abit. You may just need to leave it be for 2wks and let it bed in and if your still not happy with the clutch position take it back and get them to adjust it.
  14. Brody it took me about 1000km before the clutch felt good. For the first 3-4 days if I released the clutch quickly on down-shifts i'd nearly put my head through the window My friction point is quite low to the floor, if I get lazy at the lights I start to creep forward
  15. ..and hopefully some small scale models for the people that can't afford those either
  16. I think the GT-R Concept car looks fantastic although I laugh everytime a company says that the car won't be available for "X" years. Thats like saying that in 2007 Intel will have 10Ghz CPU's... will they? Who knows, nobody does coz it hasn't been done yet and who knows what new technology will become available in the next few years which will completely change the way things work. I don't agree with releasing concept cars... if you can make 1 car you can make 1000. Not make 1 'concept' car now and then in 6 years time they will be available... in 6yrs time who knows if that company will even be around. By the time this car is made available a new GT-R concept car will be available for 2012.
  17. Kutter I know exactly what your saying. If I bought my GTS-T and left it 100% the way i bought it for a year instead of modding it i'd be sitting in a GTR (stock) right now. But then again, yesterday I realised that when my parents move down the coast at the beginning of 2004 (and I take over renting the house) that i'll be needing to survive on $32/wk (right now im surviving on ~$180/wk) after all living/car expenses. I'm either going to need a pretty hefty payrise (haven't got 1 in 2.5yrs) or a 2nd job working afew nites a week just to actually keep my car (let alone continue paying off more than what is required). I'm up shit creek without my line
  18. "mid to low 9 second 1/4 with totally stock internals" ..errr no ! Most cars will need aftermarket internals just to get into the 11's.
  19. Another pic of a before/after 400R rear bar. http://skylines.pnc.com.au/pics/ben/bodykit/ (MFX my offer still stands).
  20. If anybody requires a box I have 1 sitting at home (sitting in my room for 10mths now). I bought it from UAS for $195 and its your from $50. Oh and I also wanna swap my HKS Pod for a standard airbox.
  21. C'mon Dundan do it for us GTS-T boys
  22. damn damn damn i just fitted a 400R rear bar like 3wks ago and i have a standard GTS-T rear bar sitting here. MFX if ur in need of a straight R33 GTS-T bar im wanting $150 for mine.
  23. What filter is in the stock airbox ? Does it come with all mounting screw?
  24. Kevin looked after you well it seems I'll be in their before Xmas to get my Master Brake Cylinder re-sleeved Whats their new shop look like ?
