  1. read my tutorial in the tutorial section..explains everything.. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...03&hl=brake+fun great pix are gone again.. sigh.. f**king sick of uploading my photos every 5 minutes this server is changed..
  2. yeah, personally i reckon the JZA80's look a bit poofy for a street car.. whereas the older ones have the harder look.. but i know everybody will disagree with me on that one. And well, being in my mates n/a when he owned that, the girls cant keep their eyes off the damn thing.. never had that reaction in any other car.
  3. and get me just $60 in my pocket after post.. please dont insult me with ridiculous offers.. its not worth my time. you are poor, go away
  4. still available.... great condition.. will include post for that price to anywhere in oz.. thank you, come again
  5. probably not *that* heavy.. think its around 100kg more than your average R33.. or the same as your average commodore. would be a fun car I think for a decent straight line racer. Not many around really. I think they can look pretty tough in a late 80's sort of way.
  6. ouch.. your onevia got a good smacking! I am not sure what you're really worried about as the car is dead now anyhow. Getting the money back to fix repairs that are not really applicable anymore to me is a 'who cares situation'.. but I can understand how its money for nothing. She will be a bit sus if you get the cheque in your name (I would), but I guess, in the end, it doesn't really matter who it goes to. I would have thought too, that any accident, it is the other parties responsibilty to fix the vehicle to the state it was before, and not pending any further damage or paying for any of that damage. Not just giving a person money to do what they like. But if the car is written off, would the 'agreement' be void in a way?? (but I'm no lawyer). Wonder if she could worm her way out of it?
  7. there's a guide in DIY with some pointers I wrote..
  8. lol.. HCL is not going to eat through the whole concrete like in the movies ! I ended up using Caustic Soda.. diluted in water.. worked pretty well... similar to HCL probably (couldn't find it at the hardware store, it was probably there somewhere, or maybe they aren't allowed to sell it anymore). Caustic Soda is pretty heavy duty so have to be careful you don't get it in your eyes, etc..
  9. unfortunately error codes won't tell you a fuelling problem... but worth giving it a try and seeing what it throws up to check if its electronics problem.
  10. what makes you think its the injectors if you've been fiddling with the fuel filter?
  11. I've got one, its bent.. but could probably be bent out again. Any good with an oxy? Can provide pix if you're desparate enough to buy a bent one.
  12. assuming 3/4 tank of fuel.. thats roughly 40kg just in the fuel weight.. That's why people do always say that the car feels faster on that last little bit of petrol Makes sense, as you're nearly carrying around an extra passenger!
  13. yours is probably same as mine when it came from japan (think it got done on the docks - and seems pretty common with fresh imports unfortunately) ... most of it came out.. but there is still a line. Bloody kids.. thing is I don't think they are really 'kids' either, they're dumb shit bogan commo drivers and riced up lancer drivers that are just jealous as they don't have the money for a decent car, or to get up off their ass to earn the money to buy a decent car. The amount of sh.t I get from working on my car in my driveway yelled out just shows the b.s. jealousy out there... "whats wrong with your jap piece of shit".. screamed out by some jellyfish in some VN as they hook a lame burnout. Little do dickheads like that I was installing a damn larger turbo - just so i could whip even more wankers like that. Low life scum with no testicles to actually stand there and make a statement like that.
  14. so desparate hope you get a sale though Sam..
  15. there is no easy solution.. they're an expensive proposition.. and conveniently most of the people that sell these sorts of seats aren't too straight up about the mods to get them to fit... and the words 'universal rail' to many mean just that. this is why GTR seats command such high prices.. You'd be best off buying a pair of shagged ones, and getting them completely redone with new boulstering and trim. You'd still come out ontop.
  16. ok.. let me rephrase then "WOW those pre-assembled BOOST CONTROLLER modules are very expensive at nearly $300 - you may as well buy a 2nd hand Profec, Blitz, etc EBC for that price" I was just having a look on that page and speaking in general, lol
  17. woa.. at $300 tested you could also just by a SAFC 2nd hand.. which has a prettier display
  18. 99% certainty it hasn't done 99,000km.. even though it still does look "clean" and spotless.. so does an aussie car that has done 150,000km Take it to a proper garage, that *knows rb26dett's* and get it inspected fully.. everybody can armchair guess for days on something like this and its not going to get you anywhere.
  19. simply age.. all cars a certain age that sort of thing starts happening to them. if it bothers you a lot, think you should be looking at something newer. .. mid 90's or so, even that is 10 years old.
  20. it would still 'boost sweet' with slightly worn bearings.. how long it boosts sweet is another question.
  21. yeah, thats a good idea.. 1 min with the drill, and you can still get a spanner down there to adjust. Which goes higher boost? pulling it in or out?
  22. I also have a feeling the stock actuators aren't that good at holding anything above 10psi, unless combined with a decent EBC to pulse it.. Mine can sit on 13-14psi, but always dribbles back to 10-11psi in the higher rev range. It may be one of those varying things - some factory ones may be fine, others get old and not so good. I've got an RB20 and RB25 actuator sitting around, should do a couple of swaps and see which is better (onto rb25 turbo).
  23. just to the front of the oil filter, you should be able to get a socket in there to tighten without too much drama. The other side you will have to remove the rubber afm pipe to get to it, and its just behind the aircon compressor (this one is harder to get to).
  24. I can't imagine why.. rb20 and rb25 fuel pressure regs are freely interchangeable (one i am running came off an rb25).. same fit, same everything. So it follows that the aftermarket type should fit too.
