thanks for all your help! turbomad, yeh i thought i might need it, since im sure i'll be running too rich, thanks sydneykid, really detailed mate, helps A LOT, thanks! edge, i was thinking at going to the place where benm took it(unigroup.com.au), bcoz he says they know their stuff and are very helpful, and there has been dyno days organised there from people of this forum. also by what benm said, they are good with their pricing too! predator666, my car is going to have all those things serviced definately, and have them serviced regularly too! the only thing im not sure about is the plug gap thing, is that on the spark plug at the front, where there is like an 'L shaped rod over the circle thingee' (lol), and you measure the gap in between them. (i didnt realise a mm difference in the gap can make such a difference?) thanks again guys!!

hi guys, As I've never seen a car being dynoed before, and i want to dyno mine within the next month(after i put all the gear in it, because its a completely stock 97 gtst skyline at the moment). what i want to know is, with my mods: FMIC 2 Stage Boost Controller (7/12 psi) Apexi Pod filter 3" turbo back exhaust with 3'' hi flow cat Stock ECU Stock Turbo hks ss bov pineapples what exactly can the tuner actually tune on the dyno? is it worth going to just get my rwkw reading, if thats all they can do with my mods? ..or should i buy a safc before i hit the dyno? thanks for your help, im just a newbie on dyno tunes, and i want to know more about them, as i am planning to go for one really soon!

so then its not $240, but $280?

$240 for a stainless 3inch pipe, yeh right... the trade prices for those pipes are higher than that. you see people buying pipes for 400 etc, thats just too low for a decent stainless steel pipe me thinks.. my2c

hey guys, If any1 wants to buy a front+dump pipe (one piece, like the picture above), let me know, because i can supply you with a mild steel 3 inch front+dump pipe for $260 for r32 & r33 skyline. If you want a stainless steel one, its $360. If someone want one for a 180sx or other let me know and i can quote you a price, i just have to call the guys that make it(CATCO). They also do 3 inch hi-flow cats (with flanges). If interested, I can buy you one for $160. I can ship interstate for a little extra. cheers

is there a big difference between the old and new one? why are you selling it?

im interested. how does this dual stage work? does this unit spike like the bleed valve? or has it got solenoids?

benm, 2fardown or any1 else that knows about this clutch.. what is this clutch rated at in terms of hp or any other ratings? (like say if my car has 250kw@wheels, can it handle it?) also is it a 9puck or something clutch? and how much to buy just the clutch? thanks in advance!

damn thats quite expensive... they go for around 600

101% correct

we have one,whats it worth to you?

that sound great zahos, i will definately be interested! cheers

What exactly does it mean when the bleed valve 'spikes'? What can it damage in the long run(is it a major problem)? How often do these spikes happen with bleed valves? Just asking bcoz i want to 'up my boost', but dont want to spend too much money on doing it, unless any1 knows which EBC is cheap yet good to buy/intstalled, and where. thanks in advance!

for a stealth, mysterious and mean look..BLACK KICKS ASS!

apparently you can put 235 tyres on the stockies. i know you can put 225 tyres, coz we have a few cars here that have 225 tyres on the stock rims. any disadvantage of puting 235 on the stockies? i would say its a great idea! cheers

that relay device sounds pretty good zahos. ...and i totally agree with you on the 'when you catch him' thing LOL cheers

you can tell from the vin plate when the car was built exactly. about the 'who should pay', well it'll have to be you in the end. you have to remember, you're not buying off a dealer, where you can tell him/her, oh i want to buy it, but can you fix this thing etc, you're really buying the car off the auctioneers. the guy you pay to (middleman), he simply is doing you a 'service' to get your car from japan to sydney, and a few other little things. its really up to you to inspect the vehicle by asking for photos to be sent to you etc in the end, its a bit of a gamble, since you're buying something you havent seen properly, so i doubt the middleman is going to pay for those cosmetic things'. cheers :burnout:

the link you specified v_s_p_e_c doesnt work... oh and the v8 soarer at matrix is now sold... i sold it cheers

:bahaha:

tlai909, im sorry but i think the series 2 front bar kicks ass, especially with the nismo factory optioned chin lip at the bottom. the series1 bar looks too plain, whereas on the series 2, you can see nissan has done thier homework my 2c

LOL @ whet rev210 said, very nicely put. cheers :burnout:

exactly what ex-static said. We here are moving into the new RAWS scheme(very expensive!!!), and though we know most of the new procedures that need to take place, there are still some things in which issues have not been sorted out(since its not enforced yet and even the authorities dont know whats goin on). You can still import a car privately, but the compliance plates + paperwork are going to be quite high, which might turn some people off and they end up buying from either dealers or wholesalers like us. I dont think any1 would be STUPID enough to actually destroy these precious aftermarket items, but we would most probably ship them seperate or in a box in the car or something, and the purchaser of the vehicle can do whatever he/she pleases with them, coz afterall its their parts. However, this all costs money, you have to pay parts + labour to remove the parts, and if you're gona put them back on, labour again... thats my 2c of the whole thing, i think im about 100% right since i work for importers, and thats what is going around... cheers

4 doors are very rare...keep looking!

hi there, We have a 95 R33 GTR gearbox for sale in great condition (only done 60,000kms for $1500. PM if interested cheers :burnout:

FFS!!!! hey DentonR33, im getting a line just like yours, and although im from sydney, ive been go to melb often, and around that area too. cant believe the ignorance of these f.ucken cops. i would have done/said just what you did, and then to get canaried?? f.uck that. to some of these cops, being nice doesnt help, being rude, well you might as well say goodbye to your car.. i think you should report these f.ucks, so they are stuck in traffic duty or somethin, becuase some just dont belong on the road, pulling cars over for defects. btw, did you get both cops names and stuff, coz im sure you can request them(after all you pay their salary, they are supposed to SERVE you)...and also tell the officer in charge that they speed off unecessarily hehe well, good luck with it anyways dude! cheers :burnout:
