use replacement yellow LED globes. they're brighter and use less power cheap and easy fix. but I agree. LED array FTW. I'm in the process of LED arraying my tail lights, indicators and reverse lights on the new R32

go ahead n make the thread, i'll sticky it for ya

lol this one's purely PranK's domain of "need to fix" so nothing the rest of us can do. I'll have a look at the upgrade usergroups though. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...php?act=paysubs Although, not a big fan of removing flood control... last time we did that the postwhoring just got stupid.

We will ban you if you post any more girlie pics.is that good enough a reason? It wasn't. We allowed it as long as it was kept to a socially acceptable standard. I'm sure when you open up a mag like FHM you don't see someone writing an article called "check out this camel toe" with pics of chicks of said toe-age.But someone (you) decided no, that you'd link to a porn site (the URL clearly bloody had "PORN" in it, so don't play innocent) with that stuff in it... after we clearly said that we'd allow the thread as long as it was kept clean. So we've put a stop to it. Now, we give a foot of allowance, and you keep pushing for a yard, then its just easier to see you leave. As for most of the people on SAU, how about you stop with your childish need to see semi naked women, and we'll see how many people actually leave. Its a gamble we're willing to take. You also have to remember that most employers log what URL's are being accessed thru proxy servers etc. It usually sets off alarm bells when the word "porn" comes up on that list with you as the person accessing it, and all it takes is for you to hotlink an image off a website, PG or not, to get someone into trouble. I implement that shit for a living, and I've seen how people get caught out.

woohoo we spend 4 minutes more having sex, than the national average

nothing you can use directly. there is software called Apexi Power Excel available to interface with the ECU, but you need an interface cable that's only available to authorise Apexi Tuning shops. GReddy Emanage comes with software that you can use at home though.

play innocent? Most places that do a RWC will give you some things to fix up, then issue you the cert once you fix it up, so rock up with the pod, if they don't notice it you won't have to fix it

Intellectuals 100. Other than "that was long and tiring" do you have any comments? Not my fault there's 100 questions... honest. The original questionairre had 100. Hopefully this lets you get to know other owners and their mentality about their cars better.

Man... cut me some slack. I was translating the q's at 2 in the morn.

Ben and the VIP LS400 is in one of the episodes as well.

I have an R32 GTSt wheel you can have for free. But it's in melbourne

wtf? "VTEC yo" in a skyline? VCT (variable cam timing) is slightly different to VTEC (which is more an on/off thing depending on what RPM you're at). If you were to properly do it, you'd want a circuit that feeds an emulated VCT signal to the ECU. I'm assuming the PFC dosen't work with 1993 R33 ECU's then as the RB25's in the initial batch didn't have VCT.

hey gareth, have ya got an R32 dash?

umm look up mag wheel repair shops in the yellow pages? you might find that they need to strip it back to the metal, repolish it, then apply the clear coat on it again. genuine advan trispokes are supposed to have an anodized red lip... which shouldn't fade... may chip off though.

hmm that's strange... I'll check the email logs when I get some time.

Here's a concept image I knocked up for SAU VIC a year or so ago... based on the R34 GTR knob. Which looks awesome and feels great to use.

I'm not at the meeting

Box Hill, VIC... where StarionTurbo lives sorta close to (I think)... plus NSW has a Box Hill? Can't remember how much it cost now, got it done a couple of years ago, but it was cheaper than most places I went to, quality of welds was awesome and turnaround time was very quick. Plus he's a VASS so he can noise test and roadworthy your car too (if you drive a VIC registered ceffy).

Talk to Marcus at Box Hill Exhaust & Brake (480 Station St, Box Hill, 98996700) He did mine for the cef and did an awesome job of it. Custom made to fit as close as possible to the body of the car etc. He's also a VASS that's pretty easy goin on modded imports.
