"operation 'borrowing' Ron's engine" is cancelled.

You reckon we could 'borrow' this motor without Ron looking?

Wouldn't bigger turbo happen to be one of these 'few things' you need fixed?

Trent, That is quite a rant, these clamps are too chunky for my liking anyway. And you bin about 30 of these a week?! Will have you to replace the standard ones with the one you put in my R other day when I'm ready to shit my pants with more killerwasps. Cheers Grant

^^^ will give it a go when I get pulled over - that would take a while...

Midnight Purple (LP2). I'm actually thinking about selling my white R33 GT-R for another one in Midnight Purple.

+ 11ty billion

LOL, I'm deaf - yet my car isn't that loud... for my liking. I wonder if I said I'm deaf and the exhaust isn't destroying my hearing (not that I have one anyway) would I be let off? I don't know why the deaf society support this bullcrap, once again I own a GT-R and I'm essentially a criminal just cos I have one of these rackety thing on wheels according to the media/people that have been brainwashed by the bullshit artists (ACA/TT). How much is the fine for having loud cars?

Ron, Ta for the link, how much did these set you back if you don't mind sharing? Cheers Grant

Will, Yeah but I had to fork out $680 (2 x towings) for this damn thing. When I'm going to put the HKS 2510s I've got sitting in my R, I'll replace the rest of clamps just to be safe. Cheers Grant

This is what I meant.

Now, that is SPORT!

Hi all, I'm still looking with no luck. If you've got a set and wanting to flog, yell out my way!

To the top

Charles is talking about the sport the 'Lingerie football' is based on which is NFL.

Post pics of some model, easy.

Ask them to throw in shares of hose clamps for me? Pretty please? Also ask your new buddy to take some photos of his computer, always wondering what sort of computer they get.

Add money to it, they're just a bunch of cry babies who doesn't like too much attention - their fault for being famous. My 2 cents. p.s. I wouldn't want to see men playing lingerie football!

Actually, lingerie football is better sport to watch...

meh to sports, they're useless anyway

Yeah the reason I'm going to Trent cos he is very easy to talk to and always helpful with my questions unlike many places. Yeah about one bit of metal shavings on top of piston 3, Peter and I suspected it is spark plug but I'll drain the oil just to be safe. I still have oil pressure which indicates the motor is tight. Hi Merowyn

I'm terribly sorry to inform you that Victoria Police aren't that dumb as they look. You're going to reamed by them when they ask you about the motor swap with all these holes of intercooler piping. Cos these days motorist especially whoever like cars are criminals according to ACA/TT. Like I said, your best bet is buy 33 GTS or $500 shitter and save up until you're off your P's than going through all this headache - I wouldn't be surprised if it could cost you more than you can buy 32 GT-R by the time you're on fulls (just estimating by buying a car, get the motor swap, insurance, engineers certificate, potential fine and court case should you be a stubborn like your post suggests). Sucks to be P-plater these days. Seriously, don't bother wasting your time, and this forum had plenty of kids coming on asking if Turbo to N/A swap are possible - It is but logically NO. You can either take our advice and don't go ahead or you can be stubborn and find out the true cost the hard way, I know what I'd go for.

Haha, your 33 does look damn good with Eurolines and proper low. As I've told you earlier, you're a champ. Thanks, yes it hurts that I had to get it towed, damn GTR. And it's ready for another cruise to come. Pity GTR are a flamin mongrel to work on, how I missed my old GTST. Next time we see each other, we'll have couple of beers. Peter and I are still talking about your R especially when you told us what you've got and how much you spent, it's insane. Actually, bring a workshop with you next time you cruise. Yes, Trent is a champ for fixing my R without bending me over and he is always happy to answering my questions, also Peter and I had wonderful at the lodge where we were stranded, meeting awesome people of SAU, had a good chat with various members and checking out some Skylines. Cheers Grant

Yeah, I'm pretty relieved that it turned out to be something simple.

Have you checked the fluids? Also, I think on R32 there are 2 different dash maybe you have late model dash on early model? Try sourcing early model dash and see how you go.
