It's a tamper resistant TORX screw, or a "Torx TR", most hardware shops should sell screwdrivers or socket bits to suit. Regular Torx screwdrivers don't have a hole in the middle, so make sure you get the tamper resistant variety. edit: you want one of the top row of this: its $40something from kinchrome, or you can get the cheaper variety from bunnings for $10 usually.

yeah, it'd look a little pov to ask for donations to keep the website goin. on a free website sure, but it's a business website. the free info is a value added service. All this info has been available at our fingertips for a few years, but never in the same spot, also not so easily accessible to the public. Hopefully this new version cuts down the number of minor emails the boys get daily like "can I import a 4 door R33 GTS4?" Potential clients can take the time to inform themselves, and then just email the boys with "I know I can import these models, I'm after one with these features, what can you show me?" the reason I asked about speeds is because I want to give Craig some feedback on caching search results and rendered pages to speed up repeat requests.

ohhh ok, I'm talking about something completely different then. sorry.

I am like this look too... except in a shiny anodized blue... mmmmm will go nicely with the blue and black theme of the car

lawl.

If I'm lucky I might just be able to order the outer rim halves from Work USA

lol sweet, I did pass the message onto craig. he was quite happy to hear it. How do you guys find the load times on the pages? Fast, Normal, Tolerable, Slow?

I think they were referring to the old "15 year rule" which put the keys to many a GTR and supra in the hands of 17 year olds and people with less sense than money.

woah... an RB in a commodore. I'm sure that's a first </sarcasm> I would seriously be impressed if it was a VE commonwhore though. I can't stop myself from thinking they look awesome. Unfortunately unless they're packing an LS1 or LS7 they're kinda disappointing to drive.

might help: http://wiki.nethome.nu/doku.php/analyzer/start Should allow anyone who wants this feature to capture the IR codes from their remotes and send it to you to code, provided they have a PC and a mic.

lawl @ dezz n esther lurking.

let me guess, the PDF had an english index? lol

ok, I've kinda decided... Gonna get these fail fitment 18" 100 PCD Work Meister S1's: Then find some epic fitment/size 18" 114.3 PCD Meister S1's down the track once all the flaring and rolling and shit is done, swap the centres out... sell the resulting 114.3 PCD fail fitment S1's for mad money to offset costs and rock epic fitment 100PCD S1's on the golf, thus becoming the ONLY golf in the world to rock meister S1's. And just to rub my massive throbbing engorged penis in all other golf owners' eyes, I'm gonna painy the centre blue like this famous blue car: Or there's these XD9's: Fitment is OK, but width is equivalent of a semi, not a rock hard greasy boner.

you paid for the japanese service manual? Hope it wasn't any more than the cost of a CD and postage. AFAIK it was available for free to download outside of SAU.

so need to make a VIN decoder tool for Nissan Skylines... just ran the dub thru an online tool... Region: Europe [ W ] Manufacturer: Volkswagen [ V ] Car Type: Passenger Car (VW) [ W ] Model: Golf Mk 4 [ 1J ] Year: 2000 [ Y ] Assembly Plant: Mosel, Germany [ P ]

to keep costs down you want someone that can program PHP. You'll probably want to base your site on a Content Management System platform as it's easy to manage for a non technical person. I'd suggest something like Joomla or Drupal. If you wanna get real tricky then try and tie it in with Customer Relationship Management software like SugarCRM. That way you'll have a CMS to manage your website, and a CRM to manage your campaigns and customers (interaction, inquiries, signed up clients, communication etc.)

lol when i used to live in brissy the back of my house was a national forest reserve. one day i started the car and a snake slithered off the bottom of my windscreen. nga flew off when i hit 80 k's though. hopin he din land on the guy behind me. lol snake to the face!

that car had all the plastics in the panels though... my plan is to shave it all.

I impaled a magpie on my front bar and some of him (whatever I couldn't scrape off) ended up being cooked on my radiator on the drive between sydney and melbourne. For some reason I was craving KFC the whole trip.

steelies? you want me to put fucking steelies on my car? fuck off back to bogancruising.com ya tard.

hmm so 16" BBS meshies with the centres painted black like the rest of them then? what if I ran RS-8's?

aaron are you guys using cyrus to code your site? mad love to craig from j-spec for getting the new look site up and running. the idea was to take it from a site listing cars to a be all to end all mecca of information for anyone wanting to import a car or even remotely interested in non AUDM cars. add to that the complexity that it needs to cater to the European and Canoodlian customers too and it just started blowing out of proportion. In the end a few of the features that were deemed "omg uleh, that's so sick" had to be trimmed out to expediate release, but keep checking back, as time goes on new features may pop up Also feel free to give craig any feedback on the website, he's worked long and hard and suffered many an aneurysm due to having to work directly with code and databases in my absence. It'd be great if he got feedback, esp that people are benefiting from the effort put into it. PS: Cheffy, yeah I heard about that Aaron Balaclava dude... supposedly he still drives a rexie. Sif mention brokers that drive rexies Cubelyfe 4 eva!

A compliancer is basically a manufacturer of the car, so any recall of a SEVS car has to be initiated by the RAW that complianced it.

you've got the mesh on the wrong side. make a cardboard template for the mesh to sit as flush as possible against the back piece. drill pairs of tiny holes along the line of the template on the panel cut a piece of mesh (if possible a finer mesh than what you've got) to size using the template paint the middle piece of the panel black so it blends into the under-bonnet area better thread some thin solid metal wire through one of the pairs of holes you drilled earlier loop the wires through the mesh and back through the other hole in the pair tighten the wire by twisting it. if possible spray the mesh black, so that the whole thing just blends together. It would also help if you took the time to make sure your bumper sat right. Your RHS headlight needs to go up a bit, and that gnarly gap (possibly from fibreglass sag or bad fitting of screws) between the headlights and bumper needs to disappear.

nga wut? that's exactly what my ceffy's been doin... might check the injectors today. BBS's are cheaper out of germany, my uncle can get a set and send it down. But I don't wanna just do a Euro/US spec BBS meshie replica. I want to give it that oceanic flavour. Like when I talk to the guys inthe US/UK they always go on about how we get work meisters and GT-C and XD9's on our skylines and shit... I wanna try and replicate that uniqueness. I'm seriously considering a set of VS-XX's with gold centres in 9" and 10.5" front n back. However I'll need to run hub adapters for those, and that means I'm gonna be nervous as fuck about a wheel coming off, and also more importantly I'll lose up to 20mm of offset, which means I'll have to get like an 8 and a 9.5 or soemthing like that spaced out. Ideally I want something with max width and minimum offset that just bolts straight on. And Basti's right, I'll never pay full price/retail for something, I'm happier buying secondhand. Otherwise I'd have gone out and bought a brand new golf instead of spending $5000ish on a 2000 model.
