Heavy Duty Organic clutch kit (240rwkw), $335 Heavy Duty 5 Puk Button clutch kit (300rwkw) , $439 Heavy Duty Cushion Button clutch kit (260rwkw) , $445 Exedy (SC) Cerametallic 3 Puk Button clutch kit (330rwkw), $610 http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ch...us-t200652.html From sliding performance, all are far better than a stock Nissan clutch... and at a far more reasonable price. All Sliding's advertised prices are around what I'd generally pay elsewhere.

Ahh so you're comparing a nice "brand name" clutch against the price of stock rotors and pads...same quality pls Probably more chance of warp/hotspots from using the coast/brake method than a combo of gearing and brakes...less load on the brakes = less heatsoak through pads/rotors and calipers. I wonder If where people live or learnt to drive has an influence on there method of stopping ie:mountain areas compared to plains dwellers..I think It might. But hey each to their own.. Whatever suit your stylez !!!

Many years ago I was taught to downshift and brake...The reason behind it is when the car is in gear you have more control over the car with engine braking ect, coasting less control. If you've ever driven anything heavy like a fully laden truck you'd never consider coasting. Also i'm on year 4 with both brakes and clutch on this car(app 42k on em), so I won't be changing my driving style....also sounds cooler The cost of a decent h-d clutch, compared to h-d pads and quality rotors? who'd like to call that one? We could also throw in the occasional calliper rebuild or 2 just bump cost a bit..

Haha groovy......probably wise Or you could pull out somemore unrelated quotes, take them out of the context of the post and misinterpret them again. Either way Uncontrolled, random, meaningless....pointless. Indeed

G'day Finchie, Welcome......have fun Hows Stifflers mother?

No...no...no If you'd be good enough to re-read the post you are quoting me on now, you'd see I said "what do you think the difference between a bog stock r32 gtr and the black Hi-Octane R32 would be per lap?? *Hazards a guess it'd be a shitload more than 4 second. Which I believe is as relative as the r35 v black Hi-Octane R32 comparison. Nothing to do with "stock R32/33/34 GTR would hold their own with an R35 " We could compare any of the r35's running around in superGT atm to the black Hi-Octane R32 and see what happens...but hey that'd be ridiculous also would it not? The stock for stock comparison is far fairer comparison re: 90's technology v current technology...get it yet? It's a comparison between 2 benchmark cars for their time that share the same linage, not a RACE I can't help it if you own an r32 GTR and feel you need to defend it's reputation against it's bigger brother to the death, I don't get it! black Hi-Octane R32 is a highly developed car with the latest and best available and sure a hell isn't running 1990's technology...so? The point was mute at every level wasn't it? Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying any of the gtr's are lesser than the other, each was an evolution of it's older brother, an absolute monster of it's day and has blown my mind with every step. If you don't compare stock for stock how can you gauge the cars development over it's model run? Uncontrolled, random, meaningless....pointless.

I'm hearing ya... common sense, It's an oxymoron I say! Now if you can just tell me where I can purchase some wiper blades for my 1997 stagea...thx

Found This Race Shell On Ebay
madbung replied to F u r i o u s's topic in Motorsport Discussion & Builds
Hey thats sad, happens alot on ebay though....almost as annoying as those expressions of interest threads, I mean if you want to sell....put a friggin price on the item, just after a market valuation? do a search or go to a car yard, aint hard. -
You could try calling each other Mary, Nancy and/or Susan...same insult less offensive? Failing that go the Nigel/Nathan route. Appologies to all the Nigels/Nathan out there (you're manly men.. we know) Its not fun when all the laughs get sucked out off your working day! Killjoys!

She gave it to you Greek style hey......Harsh luck mate

Banning Performance Cars From P Platers = More Deaths
madbung replied to scathing's topic in General Automotive Discussion
Agreed they should have compulsary advanced driver training at some stage during the probationary period that must be passed as part of gaining your full licence.. much further down the track. Sadly there's a few old saying that ring true in this situation "you can't put brains in a statue" and "commonsense doesn't come in cans at the local store". Some people will always be limited by their mental capacity, it's a fact. But it would be a great idea for borderline cases and the sensible majority out there. The rest I feel will always do what they do till someone gets hurt. -
Gods country flawed?? Sheer blasphemy, deport the bastards! 'The babes are great..BUGGER OFF GET YOUR OWN! none of you can drive!..waddaya expect we're all pissed from drinking icy cold beer on account of the heat. its so stinking hot and sweltery with the humidity, that u can drink the air.. Free Clean drinking water, not used to it? whats the problem, we're in a drought you know. ur so laid back that u are to lazy to go to the fridge to get another beer, but take ur car park and its a battle to the death..Meh thats just sporting fun, take a mans last beer and see what happens. hamburgers dont have ham in them!..FFS ye of little knowledge, we do that appease our Muslim brothers. and what the hell is with none of u using indicators?' see q3 it's too damn hot to make the effort!! It's a short list of complaints so it's pretty good really...you could make it your life's work cataloguing London's flaws

Erm...what do you think the difference between a bog stock r32 gtr and the black Hi-Octane R32 would be per lap?? *Hazards a guess it'd be a shitload more than 4 second. But gee that'd also be a pointless comparision wouldn't it?

Banning Performance Cars From P Platers = More Deaths
madbung replied to scathing's topic in General Automotive Discussion
This made the entire thread worthwhile.....welldone Scathing, on a mature and informed attitude towards this subject. You can't tailor laws to suit each and every individual/situation so they generally start with the lowest denominator and legislate accordingly. As noted the lowest denominators in this case are incredibly selfish and flawed individuals so basically they've screwed themselves and their peers by their own behaviour. -
Hey French chicks are super hot.....it's just those poncy Dukes I have an issue with Mate I've had so many warnings I'm thinking of changing my name to Will Robinson

Am I Going To Skyline Purgatory?

momo momo.....I just like saying it One of the leading brands in auto accesories, got a wheel myself..love it. -
Comparisions should be stock v stock then worked v worked. You can't compare apples with oranges and to suggest you can is rediculous. Either way stock v stock or worked v worked the r35 people mover will still come out ontop. Why? simply it has newer, better technology...... with any luck this new platform(like the old one) will be re-bodied & tweaked for a few models to come for us all to enjoy @ some stage.

Send them down the local supermarket/pub/footy/cricket match they'll hear far worse and that'd be from the supporting mothers in the crowd. I think you're right re: their hypocrisy.... As you say you're a 19 y.o working in a warehouse/factory environment? I think they need to realise you're an Australian male, it's 2008, most of the language you describe has been widely socially acceptable in the company of adults for 20+yrs unless ofcourse you happen to be an 18th century French Duke. Maybe try not using anyones name for a week or so....just refer to them all as Oi!! because you fear you may offend them if you get to personal.

I think your boss may also be descriminating against your cultural rights as an Australian male............we is what we is gadnamit!!!

If a bloke can't call his workmates poofs/fags/pricks whatever...I don't know where this country is going. Down right un-Australian.....these bureaucrats and policy makers should get their ass's off the tarmac and take a wander down the bush track to remind them just where the f*k they are! Your boss and office girls included. If they want to be all gay and gentile...go to France or some other bastion of faggotry.
