  1. Yeah, thats my GTR. Lisboa has great Nacho's
  2. Amaru: Cage is still in, I'm in for it!!!
  3. Not quite sure if my GTR is up to scratch, But would be good to come see!
  4. I really wish i hadn't read this, I've agreed this morning to work tommorrow day... NOOOOO!!!!! I feel sick already...
  5. The white GTR was me. MMMM $6.90 dinner, All i can eat after petrol prices!!!!
  6. I might try to get the GTR out for a run, But where??? Haven't been on a skyline anything since car died last year!
  7. No worries... Pm me if you want my number to have a look before, I can come for a drive to shoe whoever's thinking of using her....
  8. You can actually get a RB26 rebuild kit from Hi Octane Racing and they supply everything needed... Have a look!!!
  9. I just had an engine rebulid at Trojan Imports. I did a few extras, But the usual forged piston's, N1 oil pump, Tomei sump baffle etc.... One thing that was done is replaced the R32 crank with a brand new balanced R33 one. The crank collar as stated earlier is a fixed part of the 33 crank and Far less likely to cause problems as opposed to the collar on the 32. A well known problem for the 32's. Very happy with the work done....
  10. Yeah, Thats a photo from Brisbane while up there last year. She's just had engine rebuild, All good back on the road!
  11. White R32 GTR $40 is fair with petrol... Its finally back on the road... More than happy to help...
  12. Yes, He left my dads house today, On the quiet after getting the result from Gavin... Oh with assistance from my dad to leave.. Just spoke to RACQ as the first mechanic who lokked at it was a approved repairer and will be speaking to their Technical advisor tommorrow morning.. So lets see...
  13. Ok, Here it is, I took it to Gavin at auto tek, And he was fantastic, very helpfull, straight forward in the diagnosis. Fu#ked, It needs a rebulid. Big end has gone, Now sounds like the pistons are clipping the head. He offered to rebuild her, but i have to be in canberra this friday to get back to work, SOOO After calling Tnt and many other places with quotes for around $720 to $811.40, i called my friend Parviz from fast and furious imports in Canberra, $425 all the way to his workshop, So i am happy about that but i am going to miss driving her back home... So a rebuild with some goodies is on the books and now my GTR service amnual will get its work out. Should be back on the road in a few weeks... Amaru, Cheers thanks for your hope. I need it.. Bobjones. I went to a few places here who just threw me on to the next one. If Peninsular is a place that specialise in 4wd's, They were included in the pass on... Nismogirl.. I cant say it enough to you and krawler, THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU.. :jump: to you both for the hositality and help.. Both you guys and others like jason, Paul and all the SAUQLD have made my holiday one to remember...
  14. Ok, Well, The f@#ken mechanic that looked at my car on Friday checked my cam timing and cam noise to see if there was any problems, As a few of you may know, YOU ARE WRONG ABOUT IT BEING THE OIL GRADE YOU!! :headshot: Oh this is 'g' rated isn't it... Anyways, She stopped last night on the way back from the bwcp. Not a good noise at all, But even worse is the fact of paying this "workshop" as they call them selves $215 to do this work has pissed me off SOOO bad.. Ahh think of calm blue oceans, Nice calm blue oceans Phil... So its either the cam barrings or the big end barring by the horred rattling from the top of the engine... I thank all you guys that did stop for melast night, and krawler, I ran outta credit but the message about the N1's, forged pistons, MMM, done me better than you can think, Thank you to erin too for getting me the tow truck and andrew in the other "one of many" white 33 for the lift home on that fantastic night..
  15. Yeah, I will be in for that.. see you then, I just wanna do something and with cars is even better.. I got a video tape this time too.. he he he..
  16. Is anyone doing anything tonight, I am leaving thursday, And wanted to get pics and stuff. Let me know.. i am SOOO board :uhh:
  17. Na cant be the front diff cause it happens wile the car is still with bonnet up and reving the car, I have been advised that changing oil from Castrol racing r oil to mobil 1 and then using the higher ultimate petrol from BP up here could just have cleaned out the carbon from the engine, So i was told to change the oil back to castrol, Cause their has been a little bit more than usual black smoke than i have seen before, but no loss of power, Clutch, Yes maybe as i has slipped a liitle of recent. but to start i will change oil and then go from there i think..
  18. Well, I took it to Rahams in redcliffe who looked at the timing, They said it was spot on, No skipped cog or anything, Now i am starting to stress, They seem to think a change in oil from mobil 1 to start with to catrol r synthetic then back to mobil1 might have cause it cause they say that mobil 1 is not great for over head cam engines. They are 'almost' certain that its not a piston cause of the inconsistant noise... it comes and goes :confused: . I just drove it home, It has no loss of power that i can notice. Any advice or help regarding how to deal with this would be great, I yet have to get it back to canberra.. thanks for takin the time to read. Chees Phil.
  19. paulr33 The clunking noise is from the rear of the engine bay.
  20. Yeah, I really hope thats all it is.. I thought the same but after 6 workshops SOOO unsure about the problem i was scared it was a piston skirt.. But FINGERS CROSSED Thats all it is. I will let you know tommorow afternoon..
  21. The enthuesiasts place is great, They are a broker YES but they have go through suncorp and what not with mods accepted...
  22. try a company called!!! Oh shit, I dont know they are brokers.. Thier number is 07 55 268866.. Donna and i think Colin, Both of them are fantastic.. They got me quote for a friend for a 93 GTR for $1900... I have yet to do my GTR... Shhh! Good luck..
