  1. what battery is it? perhaps you should borrow a mates for a few day or something and see what its like with a different battery.
  2. thats an acceptable excuse
  3. i think topstage do widebody for r33s amongst other things. to me tho there isnt much point putting 20s on a skyline, it just doesnt look right in my opinion. 20s is vip territory imo. skylines dont event tuck rim at the rear even with 20s...?
  4. lol thats funny as. the truck just pull out into traffic and then everyone else pull out in front of a bus
  5. so i guess you missed the topics in the general section AND in the motorsport section?
  6. you might find this site useful too... http://www.meggala.com/skylinescss.htm
  7. righto. i suck... i accept the challenge nah im over gt4 i really need some new games
  8. ^^^what? stooges. hopefully they will make available an upgrade pack or something for those who spent money on the original 360... tho i got no money to spend on a 360 yet
  9. what power and what qtr does it run? just asking coz of the roll cage...
  10. whoa looking at prices a skyline radiator isnt cheap :S good luck with it all.
  11. i find in my VS commo that it has more momentum in higher gears. it slows down quicker in say 2nd than in 4th. but it sound as though its a skyline thing.
  12. well its been on there for 15 years or so perhap leave it in the sun to loosen the adhesiveness? or you just get your muscles into it and rip it off as youd need to respray the boot anyway? then get some prepsol/prepwash or goo remover onto the adhesive and give the paint a cut n polish. then tape up the holes and voila EDIT: or try a thicker fishing line and pull up toward the wing when sawin it slowly as to avoid damaging the paint and boot...
  13. it was in my commo so it wasnt that expensive. $140 for a new radiator and it installed it myself. i was quoted $80 i think for my mechanic to do it and replace the coolant. its fairly easy in a commodore not sure about a skyline tho. in a commodore it take of radiator cap, unto bottom hose into bucket and let it drain. remove all hoses (auto too so auto line went into it too). take of fan shroud and slide out old radiator. then do the reverse... how much is a stock radiator for a skyline. i wanted to upgrade mine by was advised against it by a few in the know as stock radiators are pretty good unless youve got a big huge powerful engine. my radiator wasnt really repairable. it wasnt that much of a crack but iy was pushed out... id rather have a good condition something than one thats busted and been repaired...
  14. its not that important to reset the ecu as the ecu will adjust for the modifation anyway. depends what mod you do too. its just so the ecu can go from a blank canvas so to speak...
  15. the flush just mighta been what caused the radiator to crack. i flushed mine and about a week later a crack went down the side and i needed a new radiator. tho i do think it was the original one so it did have a fair stretch on it...
  16. Modified Mines R34 GTR 6:54.775 i could get quicker i reckon with changing the gears and suspension as it topped out at 348kmh on the straight and slid like a mule round some corners...
  17. '99 R34 GTR Vspec 8:24.817 Stock w/ sports med tyres i rate the r34 definetly holds the road better than the r33. plus it was red so it gained an unfair advantage with speed might do a 350z next or the gtr proto? dunno...
  18. one thing about insurance they will probably accept the car and you pay the money. but when you go to make a claim they may say "no your car has illegal mods and cannot be covered by us". Spacers are not legal anywhere i think, i wouldnt really risk it personally. also if a cop want to defect you they can. i had one threaten me with a defect, i was being a smart arse so i kinda deserved it, and my car was a stock as a rock VS Commo... atmosphere vent BOV are illegal, also, depending on where you are, and intercooler AND pod filter are illegal. although i havent heard of anyone getting done for it. theres a scan somewhere on the forums about it. it may be a state specific tho. Oh before i forget. if you have the right wheels for the car you shouldnt need spacers. he may have just been unlucky when getting rims that they had the wrong offset or something and they were rubbing and so needing spacers...
  19. '97 R33 GTR Vspec 8:37.421 Stock w/ sports med tyres Slides more than the 32 i reckon so i think i could better my R32 time easy. BTW im only doing 2 laps with each car as it not the shortest track in the game lol. first is to get the feel of the track with the car and then i see if i can beat that one.
  20. ^^^ive seen a few of them in autobarn that look like that. with the drag style wing tho it may need to be a custom one...
  21. '93 R32 GTR Vspec 8:46.039 Stock w/ sports med tyres slid a few times tho :s
  22. hows your fuel filter etc?
  23. get a full turbo back exhaust first. then a intercooler and up the boost slightly. i think the standard ones are ok at say 11-12psi? depends on the condition of it of course. if you want to go higher boost changing the turbo is the option. but with higher boost an intercooler would be the go anyway.
  24. what boost are you running? you might not be running enough boost for it to open....
  25. shit price drop! i better get my act together :s got anymore interior pics?
