  1. Have you tried to remove the false wall yet (the one hiding you battery)? Try it, it only take a minute to remove the 5 clips. You can feel the differance, as the panel has a similar effect as double glazed windows.
  2. I am one of those people that called in a dump pipe! Thanks
  3. Stupid question, but what do you mean by "front pipe"?

    R35 GT-R Article

    To SS8_Gohan, I think this design is absolutely mad, they would be crazy to change it!!!
  5. Is the steering wheel still for sale or has CHAOS bought it?
  6. To rev210, I am in the same boat as ROY. I know how to double clutch (but know i do not need to HAHA!) But what the hell is "OVER SELECTION".
  7. Has any heard of the Audi RV4, now that is a wolf in sheeps clothing. I think i have read that it can keep up with the R34 GTR, and it's a wagon!! V6 Twin turbo, AWD, AWS, etc.
  8. My mate just put a sub in his and found that removing the factory false wall that hides battery, it mabe a very noticable difference. He is fabricating a new cover. Me personally i beleive in speed. SKYLINES are performance cars not BOOM boxes. And before you ask, I have decked out my company van (owned by the company i work for, but in my care 24/7) with a decents audio system, including a 12 inch Rockford Fosgate sub powered by a PUNCH series R.F. amp.

    Traction

    Traction is not about RWKW, in fact the more kw the more harder to get the traction issue right. IF in 1st gear, doen't rev it past 4k max, it all about ballancing the power delivery. Maybe try to use your hand brake to launch, this way your engine is loaded (thus starting to spool the turbo, and yes you may be riding the clutch a little. This is just my opinion i would also like to read others.

    Decca Fun Day!!

    RedR32 - You have a good point about the water restrictions, as yet i do not know, but even without water it will still be wicked. Did you go last year? I was there but had no car as it was at the shop waiting on adjustable struts to come down from JMS. SS8_Gohan - Dudy in my mates almost stock Cappacino (3 cyl. turbo) car go full out in the red for a good part of the day, then drive home to Tulla. without a problem, your's shouldn't either (Unless????)
  11. Damn!!! I wish i found this site earlier:mad:
  12. Please exlain to the lamin:(
  13. Well i will keep you posted if and exessive wear is noted. Till then just send a post of how my car looks from it's ass end!:lol:
  14. Just installed my "C's short shifter", ordered from japan through Unique Auto Sports. And what a bloody differance. It has turned the feel of my R33 from a luxury sports car to a true sports car. The throw, of the shift, is just perfect and the box actually feels alot tighter. Took my car around Calder Park (Melb.) on the weekend and the speed of my shifts dramatically improved, even my mates watching from the side line heard the difference. I would recommend this upgrade to anyone. Note: Your synchro's must apparently be in good condition Forget about the NISMO short shifter it is only 10% shorter and barely noticable. And yes it is a bit pricey but i have absolutely no regretes and no problems recommending it.:jump:

    Decca Fun Day!!

    Seeing if people are interested! This event was run last year by another car club and it was great. So this year my club (Northern Street Cruizers, based in Tullarmarine) have decided to hire out the DECCA course in Shepparton, VIC. and run it again. FACTS: (These are yet to be confirmed) Date: Looking at 06/04/03 Time: Early Morning 9-10am till 3-6pm (last year we stayed at a motel the night b4) Price: Approx. $50 per car We do have liabilty insurance for the day (Definate) EVENTS: (No particular order) 1/ Time trial - A track is present at the site, we will also include a few shikanes to make it a bit more interesting. This is not all about speed but also handling. Get from start to finish in the quickest time possible. 2/ Figure 8 - This is fun but wears your tyres out chronically 3/ DEECA have a HUGE skid pan! This will be used to host various events. -Slalom. Witches hats placed, and parts of course watered. - Head to Head Slalom. As prvious only much smaller and against another opponant. Winner progresses, looser is eliminated. - Finally whatever goes!! All obsticales cleared off skid pan and you have a few minutes by youself to let go. This is just a fun day, were you can find the limits of your car and your driving ability in a safe and controlled environment.
