  1. Thanks. we'll probably never know the answer to the other 2 questions
  2. Looks good. I wonder how many R32 GTR's were made and how many are left in the world and in what country's?
  3. Search for "Bigboss" he's selling a complete GTR and I'm certain he has this cable left. I recently bought the in cabin lever for this, and didn't need the cable
  4. Engine rebuilds normally come with 12 months or 20,000kms warranty. You will have to check the receipt for the Terms and Conditions on the engine rebuild. I don't beleive you have any legal recourse with the previous owner. "Buyer beware". Car yards are a different matter, obviously. If it does fall within the warranty period the engine builder has first right of repairing the issue. You will need to speak with them and if no luck write a factual letter, being polite, but a letter of demand none the less. If that fails to motivate the engine builder/shop to come to the party organise a fair trading (S.A is something like Office of Buisness Consumer OBC or something similar) certified engineer to be on hand when the engine is removed. You will need to engage them to write a report, with pics and root cause of failure. Cost $600 to $1000. Based on the report - it's off to concilliation/arbitration hearing with the Shop. An award will be made. If the shop refuses to pay and is a memeber of MTA then MTA will pay you and deal with the shop. The issue with shops paying is that they can ask to pay a small amount on a regular basis and generally the arbitrator will say yes. No one really wins. Thats the whole point of the arbitration process. Cheers $19k is a lot to be stung. I'm not sure how long you have owend nor how you have treated your GTR since owning it. But dude, owners know if there car isn't right. Engine builders - fark me - it's extremely hard to find a good one. Good ones will stand by their work and come to the party to identify the fault.
  5. /thread kill. sorry guys. Making amends
  6. Damn GFC - You have to talk people into taking something for near on nothing. Put it away till next year and sell it for $240
  7. Thanks for the offer Zec. I'll check out the RB25type and let you know soon if I go that way.
  8. Sleek lines, slim, a sexy booty and a car with attitude you can see in it's stance and hear when it sings. This is why I prefer the R32 GTR above all other Skylines. Plus I'm an old bat fastard. I believe Mr & Mrs Nissan knew it had a misscarriage with the birth of the 33 so reverted the looks for the 34. The 34 is plain Tuff looking The 35 reverts in looks even further and I can't argue with it's handeling/performance off the production line. It's also the closest to the 32 shape (winning formula), in my opinion. These pics belong in the 32 Pix thread but to add wheight to this debate
  9. I had my local car stereo shop do it. I'll ask tomorrow and post here. Worked out well and made room for something similar to what you want to do. You can buy a Marine Battery box to put your battery in and run a vent from the box through the base. In the ACT they dont allow even sealed batterys (Optima Yellow top) to not be vented.
  10. This thread is the only safe place for 33 lovers I think. until now anyway Personally -> 32, 34, 35, 31.........................................................................33 Im partial to defined lines and the sports car look, not too keen on the Skylines prior to the 31
  11. Marko - are they LMGT1's on your red GTR ?
  12. As matter of interest what is the offset on the TE37's ?
  13. Hey Jarad - Maybe try battery world and then stop by supercheap and buy a cheap SCA battery charger. If you have a garage back it in and connect the charger, put it on trickle. (take the leads off the battery first) Bazzinga ! - no more problemo Ps. Battery's dont last long if they discharge fully multiple times.
  14. Maybe a single AFM would work as is. Wouldn't in normal circumstances take the average of both. So why not the average of 1 ? Sort of like a single 02 in one of the 2 dumps .... Just to qualify this thought. I dont know sh!t and to add to this thread not being a smart arse - do we have a search function in this new version ?
  15. any reason all photo's have no rego plates on the GTS-t. Not blanked out for photo's jus removed....
  16. an R32 GTR running on song with such a beaut day to be on the road - no better feeling, honestly. and - I am #1 post whore today
  17. 2 fuses. One in cabin one in engine bay?
  18. Once you have done that and if it has not fixed the issue, give your Idle screw 1/4 to half a turn - only. I would not expect you to have idle greater than 1 to 1.2 RPM on your tacho. 1500rpm is like an auto choke
  19. mofo - foreign this - lulz
  20. 166 pages on Kando - aite , sowwy fans
