  1. Hi Nick I have one pair of fibreglass Nismo skirts that you are asking about. Please click the link in my sig for more info or shoot over a PM. Cheers! Mark
  2. Hi Jaz Dude have you sorted the HICAS light? If not, do you have an aftermarket steering wheel? If so, the car may have the wrong boss fitted which causes HICAS to stuff up.
  3. If your mirrors are a little slow/jerky, can you just remove the glass and give the motors a blast with brakekleen or contact spray? Just to loosen them up a little I mean
  4. If you're talking about adjusting the damper, have you looked at the top of the strut tower? There is usually a tiny flathead screw-type thing which you can probably adjust to four different settings.
  5. I put 5L into the RB26 gearbox, which is about the same? I hear your pain re expensive. The fluid is about 1,000km old but the gearbox needs to come out next week, can you reuse the fluid? ps nice sig
  6. That's awesome! Thanks Chris - my wheels need repair and paint too, been thinking about making them a lot darker, now I can have a preview Cheers!
  7. Yep, I'll definitely pay that. Seeing an R334 would be a whole lot more interesting and head turning that a GT-T Man, I have more near-accidents trying to get a good look at other cars than I do trying to get a good look at girlies
  8. Cool, thanks very much guys. Hey Charlie for your GTStt theme, I have a GTSt horn button if you're keen. GTR one pops right out, swapover will take 2 seconds. Let me know. I'm not after cash, it's just sitting in my garage, may as well have someone get some use out of it I can bring it to the next SAU Drag Day if you like.
  9. R31Nismoid has lost the SAU love... As you said you've searched but found nothing good, here's a thread that should answer your q's: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...r32++difference If you're a collector, save up your pennies and buy one. If you just want to go fast, don't bother. Opinion only. I'm actually rather envious of the dudes with VSpecII's just for a younger car that hopefully would be cared for a little better than most.
  10. Hey Rylan My R32 has been gassed twice in twelve months and it still blows warm air. Learned that a few days ago whilst driving up the freeway during the second hottest day on record Annnnyway, mine is terrible. I haven't looked at the actuator and until I saw this thread (re: thermisters) I thought I just had an aircon leak. If (when!) I sort it, I'll post here. Mark
  11. Cheers Lanfoh, I might give Pauls a call as well and see if he is more interested in the work. Ben dude, the closest thing to a 1/4 mile ET is the WSID carpark on the SAU drag day I was just wondering if you circuit times had been updated and thought the 14.009 sounded more like a GTSt rather than a GTR time. Hey what time does WSID kickoff? I've never actually made it out there (only moved here in Nov). If you're just observing, what's a good time to get there? They run ever second Wednesday, right?
  12. Without intending to cause offence, isn't it the same as when you see some poor dude who dresses up his VN Acclaim as a VT Clubsport? Or the GLX Lancer boys that put an EVO front on. And only the front
  13. Awesome, thanks Ben. He's going to take a look on Thursday btw are those times in your sig from the R33 or the R32? Cheers dude! I hope Gavsport doesn't have rear to kerb parking
  14. I'm pretty sure they're all Photoshopped. And if anyone has a link to a Photoshop colour-change DIY please please please post it up!
  15. Daniel has this been fixed yet? wrxhoon's diagnosis of hydraulic dramas sounds right but very interested in exactly what was wrong and the solution. Cheers dude
  16. Happy New Year. I'm trying to avoid taking the car across Sydney and was wondering if anyone had used a transmission place in Western Sydney? All the names I can think of are tuning places. Hopefully the solution is simply gearbox out, replace stuffed bit, gearbox in - but I'd prefer to use someone who knows their stuff just in case it's more complicated than I think it'll be. Any info/advice would be appreciated! Thanks guys. Mark
  17. Just in case this happens to someone else, here is what SteveL is talking about (to the right of the image, ball joint part number highlighted in blue).

  19. Ummm guys the post is from Oct 2004. The guy hasn't even been online since Jul 2005... Has anyone tried calling the mobile?
  20. Awesome! I thought the car looked familiar. I love the blue, the wheels and those foglights. Very envious!
  21. Is it wise to put an expensive high output engine into a cheap car? I'm no racer by any stretch, but I haven't heard of any race cars with a 1000hp engine. As far as business sense goes, it doesn't make a lot of sense to manufacture multiple extremely high power engines and have them sit around waiting for a customer that wants to buy off-the-shelf. All the best with your search.
  22. *bump* Hi team. Same problem here. Gearbox oil is 1,000km old. Reverse no worky. Difficult to engage 5th when engine is off and without the clutch. 1st through 4th engage engine off no clutch. Reverse does not engage at any time. It does not move on the fork at all. The wasn't any crunch/bang nor any whining in the gearbox prior to failure. Thanks Steve and Paul for the info! It gives me something to go on. Here's hoping I can sort this out in the garage... it crumped whilst taking my wife out for our wedding anniversary! Sure puts the pressure on at the shops when you only have one shot to nail the parking space. @R32zilla: Mate did you sort this out in the end?
  23. I'm interested too.
  24. Seeing as you asked so nicely: The colour is silver, as appears in the first line of the ad. The location is Sydney, as appears in the title of the ad.
  25. Make sure you clean them with BrakeKleen or similar prior to fitting as they are coated with an anti-corrosive that will stuff you pads if it is not removed.
