  1. hey steve, i think they are nismo old style pads, as i check my 07'catalogue; and that code isn't for the s-tune or r-tune pads (which are the only 2 pads nismo make at this current time). My guess would be they are s-tune type, as the R-tune pads are hardcore pads also they make 2 types of r-tune the normal model and then pro model which is only suitable for RACE SPEC S-tune pads for r33 caliper are 19,000yen and the code is 41060-RN25P (for the front) let me know if you want them as i can get them for you
  2. they are good, i've used them before also try yahoo auction
  3. im currently running endless disc and pads in my ap's. not sure what type they are but they are awsome and pull the car up really well but i have not used any other pad in my ap's so i have nothing to compare it too. i saw an add. in my option 2 mag about the endless, i go dig it up and see if its got any information for you
  4. around $1600 mark rated at 600hp or if you buy the comp. one i think its 800hp and about $2000
  5. might come bulk tied from drift prac not sure if i want to drive the car anymore today already spend over $100 in fuel

  7. makes 2 of us
  8. i run a nismo twin plate, drivers much better than my 9puk button clutch. takes abit to get uses to but the pedal isn't that heavy (near std feel) and it grabs like a s**t when you drop it plus nismo twin plates rebuild kits are only like $500
  9. awsome awsome! would love to see the pics of the stuff you bought from the nismo stand!
  10. ok front bar + side skirts + rear bar 330,000yen front and rear fenders = 380,000yen front grill = 36,750yen total = 746,750yen so about 7.8k and thats without shipping, if i had the cash i would buy it i was lucky enough to get to look over GTN1K car when i was buying some parts off him and it was pure quality!
  11. i agree, the ps3 f1 game wasn't too bad, it had some work to be done but was still pretty realistic. i hope ea don't f**k it up but im pretty sure they will hahah
  12. their was a white gts-t in perth which had the work widebody kit (i think it was work) number plates were GT-NIK, it was sold awhile ago see if i can find some pics here we go found the link http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/R3...whp-t82811.html and here is the company that makes it http://www.behrman.jp/b_gt/a_sk_wbk.php
  13. how long is the special on for?
  14. i don't think its being a jdm fan boy as such.... i think it comes down to personal opinion, preference and car setup. what works for one person doesn't work for everyone. i personal don't think there is anything wrong with Japaneses spec suspension and suspension components. and i wouldn't call my Tein Type RS a cheap coilovers
  15. nismo twin plate! wouldn't put anything else in my car now, drives so much nicer compare to my extreme 5puk button clutch.
  16. if your talking about the bar which goes behide the front seats, inside the cabin- i've got a do-luck one i can throw up some pics for you sorry about the qaulity, i post up some better ones 2morrow when i have some better light
  17. my tein aren't too stiff... if your in perth, i will be more than happy to take you for a drive to show you. my Tein's are suitable for street use, i have been driving my car on the street for the pass week, so i can run-in afew things, and i don't find anything wrong with my ride. i never said anything about fiddling around with nobs make my suspension good, i merely mention that when looking for a suspension i wanted the option to control the damper and rebound of my shock, so i can adjust the coilvoers to suit my other suspension compounds and the track im racing on. your opinion is tein are not suited for the street its your opinion and thats fine but from my personally experience i would recommended my tein if your looking for a hardcore setup which can be driven on the street, if you just want something for the street then it would be a waste of money and something like SK group would be more suitable or the entry level coilovers (buddyclub, super-street tein etc etc), also from my experience 10/10 spring rate isn't too stiff for the street if they are in good built coilover, but i don't see why you would go out of your way to get that sort of spring rate or higher unless it was a good deal, or you wanted to go serious track action
  18. i do agree with you "not noobs who buy a coilover with sic 15kgmm springs and say "o its too stiff" and wind it down to softest damper setting. - when they should have bought a lesser spring rate in the beginning." but not in those exact words so in the end looks like we both think the same thing as i dont fall into the bracket of a noob going my coilovers are too stiff, as i am over the moon about how well my tein are the only reason why they are set of the softest setting is because i have yet to fine tune them, as i jsut got my car back onto the road
  19. "lol look above - you said youve chosen to use what has been proven to work - now your saying your choosing to IGNORE what has been proven to work aswell - on the track AND the street." ok i guess you didn't understand what i was trying to explain, most likely my fault. i did not ignore the SK groupbuy, i look at it and for the price and what it could do compare to the price of the tein type RA and what they could do. i weight up the pro and con of many setups before i went and bought the type ra. so i did not ignore anything... and to your comment about the damper and rebound adjustment, last time i checked many forms of motorsport used controllable damper and rebound in their suspension, so im guess their is a point to having it? last time i check bilstein and ohlin, have damper and rebound adjustment suspension... have alook here this is suspension used in motorsport http://www.ohlins.com/Automotive/Products/...91/Default.aspx i understand what you are tring to point out but some of your arguments are flawed edit: i found a good link, give it a read it will explain about damper adjustment http://www.whiteline.com.au/default.asp?pa...faqshocks01.htm
  20. sorry... i do agree discussing the SK setup is valid but not in the way the above poster did, wasnt
  21. excuses me...? can i adjust the rebound and damper on the SK groupbuy Suspension gear? last time i check no. My car is being used prodomently for circuit work. So i've gone for a setup which has been proven to work in skyline which are used on the circuit. Just because everyone does one thing doesn't make it right or the correct method.... Suspension setup depends on alot of factors like the weight of the car in question, other suspension compounds, the alignment setup etc etc. Just because it works for one person or hundreds of people doesn't mean it will work for me or be the best setup available Also my comment on the time attack cars was just to point out that it is working for them, and im sure if dropping down to a 7kg spring rate would help to improve their times by even 0.1 of an second they would do it. ALSO last time i check this thread wasn't asking about SK groupbuy or what a good suspension setup was, but if the selected spring rate would be too stiff for "scarface", and if the damper adjustment would make a difference. so how about you keep your comments to yourself, as i dont see it contributing anything to the topic
  22. lol, not saying what you are saying isn't true sydneykid, but why do most of the japanses timeattack cars running street-tires or semi-slick run big springs rates 10/10 or even more than that? i havn't experience any of those things you have mention with my tein, maybe its because they have good rebound and damper control? im not sure all i know is that my car is handling alot better compare to my old setup.
  23. ok finally got around to getting my car back on the road, and i can say with 10/10 spring rate is awesome! its firm but not too bumpy, atm im running the rebound and damper both on the softest setting. its very streetable for me
  24. maybe its just the way u drive niz lol
