  1. Cheers man No hurry, as I'm only planning the upgrade. I recently had to go back to standard rotars for cost reasons, but I'd like to upgrade both suspension and brakes in the not too distant future.
  2. Can someone tell me the difference between Bar & Plate coolers and Tube & Fin coolers? I'm looking at getting a cooler within the next week or so, and I've noticed a minimal difference in price, but would like to know the difference as far as usuability and performance go. Thanks.
  3. I think I may attend. R33 GTSt Red
  4. I dont have a job now, so if I still don't on the 11th (I hope I do just for my bank accounts sake) I'll be there! Mine is a stock 33gtst First time on a dyno since I've owned it, so lets see what she does Hopefulyl my mysterious popping issue doesn't surface though....
  5. Are you able to get 4000 xs gold for a 33? front and back? just checking on price. ta.
  6. I'm a newbie to track days. Been keen as to go on one since I got the 'line. I'll have to get the licence and then I'm in for sure. Would appreciate the help from the experienced guys
  7. thats so not the CAPA ute. The stickers are all wrong, the rims, the bonnett. And when you see that footage.... well, even Bolger could control a car better then the fool that was driving that knock-off. Hope that kid is ok.
  8. Well, its my B'Day and I can't even take my car for a drive on my B'Day and be at one with the 'line and celebrate in my own way. My BOV is fuxored. The seal wasn't installed properly during manufacture, and its finally torn and now its creating a massive pressure hole in the system that won't even let the car idle properly. I'd replace it witht he stock one, but I lent that to Dave so he can clear defects. So I'm gunna have to wait till then and then get the whole damn lot fixed in someway Spose it's my own silly fault for buying a "replica" instead of the real thing though
  9. So it doesn't really matter what I get, as long as its the right diameter?
  10. Need to find these two hoses from the top of the head. One comes out of the drivers side and returns into the passenger, the other comes out and attaches to the stock overflow pipe that plumbs into the turbo. Anybody have any idea? I need them real soon.
  11. Haha, i've been too lazy to even re-size em yet Stace They look awesome though. Somthing went a bit amiss with my camera though and I lost a whole bunch I took of Paul organising everyone into where to park. Oh well.... plenty of others. I'll try and get something up tonight. Hopefully you guys will have that rear trim sorted out soon Stace and you guys can come on the next cruise with us How bad is the damage Keagle? I always planned on at least hiring a car trailor if I ever moved and kind of substantial distance from where I am now. Tha really sucks. Hope it gets sorted soon.
  12. Dude I'll be there if you want. By that time I should actually have a car all in one colour too Let me know.
  13. Yeah I often thought of joining the police force. Years ago. And you could almost guarantee I'd be out there pulling those bastards over just to even up the scores Dave, Let me know when you have time and I can come round and we can go about installing the box and bov. Wont take long. Can fix your front bar too.
  14. Man that sucks Dave.... I've got a stock airbox you can borrow to replace the pod with. And as with most Jap cars, you've prob still got the stock BOV there too. Exhaust noise can be fixed with a butt plug, but they can be pricey, so you may have to beg someone to borrow one. Ummm tyres..... I can get some with around 40% tread on em pretty cheap. Either that or just buy re-treads then sell em after to someone who wants to destroy em.
  15. Woot! With deals like that I might actually be able to insure the car properly Actually, I'm waiting another 17 days till I'm 26 just so I can get it cheaper
  16. GRKGTR - Speers Point is around 1 1/2 hours from the freeway at most. Just come up the freeway till you hit the Toronto exit, then turn right to head into Toronto. Follow thr road and you'll come all the way into the town. When you get to a set of traffic lights with a Caltex servo on your left, turn left. Then follow that road a ways. You'll go over 3 bridges (one and then two close together at roadworks), then turn right at that round-a-bout and you'll see some soccer fields, a big park and a pool on your right. And hopefully us too! It sounds complicated, but its not man. PM me and I'll give you my mobile number just in case
  17. Wanna give me a rough estimate on price for shipping that Skyline emblem to Newcastle? Post code 2285. If not, just an approx wieght and the size of it and i see what i can do.
  18. Oh and I thought some of you might be interested in this story from today. http://www.smh.com.au/news/general/police-...4500952647.html Some parts of interest. "...extra 1,000 police would be on duty on Saturday and an extra 1,500 on Sunday to prevent further outbreaks of violence. He urged people to go about their normal end-of-year activities this weekend, including going to the beach. "There's no restriction on going to the beach," he said. "There are certainly legal restrictions if you are going to engage in unlawful conduct, riotous behaviour, assault malicious damage or whatever the case may be." And as I said before, by doing the right thing now and telling the police what our (ie 30+ cars) intentions are, we should have very little problems from them.
  19. Excellant work again Chris I assume all Paul had to do was inform the police of our intended route and purpose? Thats all we've had to do in the past when holding rallies and stuff for the church. Hey Phil, If you live anywhere near Warners Bay, go on out and see Anthony at Tyre Power. He's always fixed me up that day for an alignment and balance.
  20. Hey guys, I'm not saying you shouldn't cruise at all. Its just dissapointing is all. But meh..... its not like we can't organise something for next year anyway. Just dont not cruise anywhere at all, cause that would just be silly considering how much work Jeff has put into your end of it. The last few suggestions of a BBQ could be just what you guys are looking for Safe travels all.
  21. Completely understandable man. And if you want to get really technical, not even Aboriginal people are truly from here either. But thats another issue. Look at the photos from the last few days though. How many Aboriginal people do you see in them? And yes, I know you can't always catergorise by looks, but thats what people seem to do lately. And lets be honest, if there were Aboriginal people causing these riots against ethnic people, then the media would be all over it like a rash. Cause for some reason, they always like to bring down Aboriginal people any chance they can.
