  1. yeh looks like it came from an old XR falcon
  2. not trying to diss the mentioned shop but if you look around, there was a very long and detailed thread not too long ago, you should be able toi find a shop that will do a top quality job for 5k
  3. good job mate, get some pics up !
  4. why would you ? theyre different cars ? different engines, different suspension...different drive...so i wouldnt of thought so :S
  5. niiiiiiiiiiiiiice
  6. fkn mean'n'clean lookin GTR, nice to see it all stock (minus wheels i see) also good to see the porsche trailin gbehind you in the first pic
  7. using a split front/dump pipe over a stock item could pot you up to 30kw ive been told depending on your other mods. if you alre4ady have a cat back and a pod probably less, but with less pressue i would think the throttle would be more responsive and the turbo would spool up a bit quicker, as for being louder im not 100% sure. maybe someone could help out with that ?
  8. to be honest im not sure, i cant see why they would be, but i dont know the difference between neo or not, the reason i specified that was because i was told that about the one i bought. if someone could clear that up i would appreciate it
  9. very close between vertex and origin, id be happy with either....but URAS is ugly :S wayyyy too dramatic
  10. cheers, cant wait til my 'stage 1' is all complete .... then i can start saving for stage 2 :S
  11. cheers for the pic, looks great !
  12. heres a pew pics i just took including where i mounted my oil catch can got my dad to knock up the brackets so that saved a bit, just booked her in for tinting thismorning. problem being i have a 3 week wait cos i could only get it in on a saturday also next saturday ive got a booking to get the wheels balanced, should get rid of steering wobbles also thats the dump pipe i got yesterday, cant wait to get it on car is a bit dirty i think ill clean it on weekend before drag combat. also as u can see my oil catch isnt plumbed in, if anyone can help me with that onto the RB20 id appreciate it (i have read many threads but found nothing conclusive)
  13. haha that wouldnt be a problem for me,i want to paint mine blakc
  14. yeh +1 for knob covers, my knob gets hell hot when its out in the sun....
  15. no as were only interested in doing high quality goods, and these will be at the price of mild steel ones (split i mean) found on the net anyways. bell mouth mild steel there ya go i looked on ebay and couldnt find split stainless ones, were you reffering to the above mentioned mild bell mouths ? also my experiences with china goods are that while they serve the purpose they arent of a particularly high quality, welding is usually what lets them down, and while it doesnt sound a big deal i can effect air flow inside the pipes.
  16. RB26 is different though right ? to start off with we'd only be doing RB20/25
  17. hahah, if you do it any time soon post up a pic, i wont be gettin mine on for a few weeks yet.
  18. nah cant remember, sorry mate.
  19. you goin for 1 straight color or a pearl or a flake or what ? i wanna know if anyone has a black/red chameleon, i rekon that would look hot !
  20. the one i have is just as you explained, gos into the main pipe at the bend. but before we started making any we might take opinions on board and subtly change the design.
  21. today i purchased a split front dump pipe from a fellow member and im VERY happy with the product, this post really has no relation to that, except for the fact that i showed my dad and he insisted he could make one with much higher quality welding. He has been a fitter/fabricator/welder and a very good one at that since he was 16, he has been the supervisor on many work sites and used to be in ship building. basically were thinking of making them and selling them at a cheaper price than what you find on the net. The best price i have found for a brand new stainless (not mild steel) mandrel bent 3" split front/dump pipe was $480. I havnt checked about getting them made locally but i will do more research before giong ahead with anything. We would probably sell them for around $400 maybe slightly less depending on time and effort + costs required in making the items. He said he would buy a welder for home and make a jig to do this if there was enough interest. To start off with they would only be for RB20 and RB25 (not NEO) R32, R33 and Stagea. Simply because we only have the one i bought to create a template from. Basically i just want to know if there would be much interest in a quality hand made item selling for much less than reputable places. we would of course allow anyone to see the product before they bought it and possibly do some dyno testing. also if anyone knows where they can be bought for less please let me know as we want to be as competetive as possible ! I'm hoping this might go ahead as this could be the kick start into my own business which is pretty much my dream
  22. looks like its already been beaten with a stick....the ugly stick ! </bad joke>
  23. i also found that one, but its for a GTR and were both after a Gts-t i did a pretty thourugh search using a few different methods and searches but couldnt fin anything.
  24. also i dunno bout other insurance companies but i know with just car a test driver is covered as long as im in the car next to them.
  25. also interested in R32 manual
