  1. Bump price is negotiable of course
  2. As title says, 160,000km, FMIC, 17"sparco alloys, tein adjustable suspension, cat back exhaust. http://www.carsales.com.au/pls/carsales/...icle_id=3066166 $13,500
  3. I've just been searching for the same thing... A/C's playing funny buggers http://www.meggala.com/R32wiring.zip
  4. I've also just started having starter problems... R32 GTS4. Battery is reasonably new ~ 6 months, and appears fully charged on the battery charger. But wont turn over at all. Roll starts and drives fine, but won't turn over. Going to investigate the battery more tonight, otherwise the mechanic'll look at it tomorrow. I'm hoping its a new battery : )
  5. I'd recommend checking your earth. In my experience that seems to be the first port of call for whacky issues... before you start thinking about faulty amp or speakers or something. The earth connection to the body of the car needs to have good, solid metal to metal contact. ie. take a bit of sand paper and scrap off the paint where the earth-bolt-loop-washer thing will be contacting the car body.
  6. Gday, I want to put an R32 GTR bar on a R32 GTST, just wondering if this is done with a stock GTR bar or whether they are custom aftermarket units for the job? Only thinking about how the GTR has fat gaurds where the GTS doesn't and how this may mean the stock GTR bar won't easily fit... Cheers.
  7. Sick, i'm going to go home a choppy choppy so I'll have the fastest sardine can on the road. nah, good way to prove a point though.
  8. Double clutching is more for the gearbox than the clutch. the idea is that when you have the clutch up and the box in neutral - between gears, that you spin up the gearbox internals. Kind of doing the syncros job for them, or making it easier on the syncros anyway. Heel and toeing is basically a technique developed for racing, ie. the car is braking so hard already that any attitional engine braking would make some of the wheels lock up, so you match the revs to the speed and gear to avoid any engine braking. I started playing around with these techniques on the street just for fun and find myself doing it more and more now. Heel and toe into a quiet round-a-bout blast through it a feel like a race car driver...
  9. Double clutching is depressing the clutch, shifting out of the gear and into neutral, releasing the clutch, giving the engine a squirt on the accelerator - or not depending on your technique, then depressing the clutch again and selecting the next gear. Double clutch - as in you do the clutch action twice. Heel and toe is used on down shifting while braking, right foot on the brakes, then you want to change down a gear at the same time. So you put use your left foot to depress the clutch, then with you right toes still riding the brakes swivle your foot to give the accelerator a squirt - and try to match the revs to what they will bein the next gear, with your heel whilst changing gears, then release the clutch...
  10. A/F ratios are one thing, advancing the timing is another. Also it's possible that the most ecomonical A/F ratios do not provide the best power... But at the end of the day, I doubt it would make that much difference on an NA falcon.
  11. It's most likely just in the tuning - think about it, the majority of people that convert to LPG are only really interested in the cost savings - not potential power upgrade. Also just because it's higher octane doesn't automatically mean more power, if you put a higher octance petrol in your car more than likely you won't pick up much, if any extra power. All a higher octane number means is its more resistant to detonating, meaning you can run more aggressive ignition timing and/or more boost, and in turn getting more power.
  12. Speaking of turbo v8's... Good son of rajab!
