  1. its costing me $300 for the rack + the labour. its a brand new one too, its not a recond'd one
  2. basically, i noticed an oil leak on the ground..but it wasnt black, its more a a dark redish colour. so i thought it was power steerin fluid. had a look, and it was empty. filled it up, then after about a 3 weeks or so, it was empty again. i had a look under the car, and it turned out to be the steering rack which is torn completly. so i went to my mechanic, and he said you'll prob have to get a new one, cause with a second hand one, the chances are it will happen again. he said a new once can cost from anything from $180-250. which i think is a bit expensive. (thats not including labour) am i getting ripped off? and is this a common problem with skylines? also, does it neeed to be replaced, or can it be repaired? thx.
  3. had the same problem with my r32 ended up being the spark plugs. i changed to platinum iridiums. fixed her up straight away.
  4. i took the spoiler of my r32. anywayz, now its left with holes (9 to be exact) and glue shit. at the moment, im just coverin it with duct tape, so u cant really notice it unless u walk up close n have a look. ive been to a few places,and they've quoted me $400 to fix it, cover the holes, take of that glue shit and re-spray the boot. cheapest i can find is $380, is this a decent price, and has anyone had to do the same job before?
  5. bankstown square. my mums had: -a car stolen -deck ripped -brick threw window -keyed so i walk there now
  6. i know that hicas steering is wen 4 wheels steer when travling at high speeds. anyway, on my r32 gtst,a orange light (saying hicas) pops up, near were the speedometer is. usually happens only wen i start the car, stays on for like 5 mins, then goes off. then it turns on and off sometimes for no reason, but not while im tavling at high speeds. is this something i should worry about? or its nothing important. thanks.
  7. yea...i bought the plugs...just gotta get em changed now. also, i tried changing the fuel filter..that reduced it slighly, but not much. if the plugs dont work, ill try the fuel pump..hopefully dat solves d problem.
  8. sounds good...thanks man..problem is, ur all d way up in qld....lol ok well just let me know wen u get it, and we'll organise sumthing thx mate
  9. please, if anyone has a standard r32 fuel pump, would be greatly appriciated. thx in advance.
  10. hey, just recently bought a r32 gtst, and the problem is, usualy in 1st n 2nd gear, wen i rev to about 4-5 grand, the car spluters. ive taken it to a my mechanic, and he suggest it might b the fuel pump. he said try to get one, and we'll fit it in and see if that wat the problem is. i called up jap parts, and they said 2nd hand one will cost $175, so its not worth it if it dosnt work. so has anyone got a spare fuel pump for a r32 that i can boroow or at least try or even pay $50 for one if you have a spare one lyin around. thanks in advnaced. or if anyone can suggest wat the problem would be it will be greatly appriciated. thanks
