  1. Don't think it's going to get fixed soon Hamish, you reckon so? Last time I went thru booze bus with HKS Silent power, no EPA, but I've got Apexi N1 and was told it's bit louder than HKS Silent. I was pulled over by garden variety cops in Commo divvy van, so yeah...
  2. Yeah... First time I've broken a CV. First time I was pulled over by cops early hours this morning (just after midnight), gave a friendly warning and told me to raise the R up. All in a week of ownership, and now once again, I'm patiently waiting for lovely letter from our friends at the EPA (just in case cops decided to dob in to EPA) I'm a proper Skyline owner no?
  3. Just discovered why mum's complaining about the 'burnt' smell when the R is warm and the clicking sound i felt on Saturday. Took the front right wheel, grease almost everywhere, it's coming from the CV. Time for new pair while I'm at it so the R is parked for time being and I'll probably miss out SnS
  4. So, last night - well early hours of this morning while I was driving normally to home from work, noticed a divvy van in the rear view mirror, light go green, drove as normal you can get, BAM disco lights on. All they wanted to hand me a friendly warning about how low my R is in the back... I gotta raise it up a bit /csb
  5. On what? Why can't you school me? Conflict of interest or?
  6. Install loud exhaust and enjoy the racket RB25 makes. Problem solved.
  7. Hi folks, I'd like to buy some wheels in sizes as titled. As for offset, +20 is as high I'll go, the less, the better. My budget is $1-1.5k - only because I like a challenge and I'm after something unique and Japanese. However if you happen to have Rays TE37 Fortessr in 19x9.5 +12, hit me up cos I'd like to have them again (I had a set of them 2 years ago, therefore I have a soft spot for them now), it's a long shot I know.... PM me if you think you've got something that I might fancy. Thanks in advance. Grant EDIT; Forgot to add that 5x114.3 is required and I'm located in Eastern Suburbs Melbourne.
  8. Ben, will PM who the GTR was tuned by - I bought the car as it is. For pair of -7s, no difference in aftermarket parts vs stock parts, so just put it together and get it tuned.
  9. 350Z wheels yeah?
  10. Think this fella is using C16 or some sort of race fuel to achieve 400kw. No way -7s will make 400kw on PULP. EBC isn't necessary but it might bring the response up to 500rpm earlier. Adjustable cam gears definitely helps, so add that if you don't have pair already. My latest 33 GTR have -7s, exhaust, 600cc injectors, EBC (Turbosmart E Boost street), cam gears. makes 270rwkw and full tank takes me 390km with few launches, some general trashing some traffic stop and starts - which isn't too bad IMO. But once again, it could use a re-tune to milk more power out of this thing.
  11. What ECU you using? If Power FC, read below. O2 sensors? I wouldn't bother putting new ones. With Power FC, you can have your tuner to turn off O2 feedback, they doesn't really help with fuel economy at all. They work when it's closed loop i.e. pottering about the town.
  12. Dumps aren't needed until 380rwkw, that is what I'm told. pair of -7s won't make more than 330rwkw (condition of motor/boost dependent), so keep the dumps.
  13. Especially with Vicroads cracking it down with RWC places these days. Unfortunately it's the way it is.
  14. No need to change intercooler, dump pipe, exhaust manifold etc. Stock items are more than good enough. Just replace things like exhaust studs, washer, nuts etc, do 100k service while you're at it. And replacing intercooler clamps with new ones is good idea also. And you're good to go.
  15. I want another set of wheels, having trouble deciding what to get /firstworldproblems
  16. Nope, it'll be my first time, will report when I've got it and have it installed In theory, it could be better than a lockbar when it comes to a time when you need a RWC. But we'll see...
  17. At the moment, I'd like to change suspension bushes, and waiting on Tomei Hicas lock kit to arrive.
  18. Matt, now fix my car for no reason
  19. Thank god I didn't pay for it. My brother did...
  20. Then it means it was one of the Skylines I had...........
