Amaru

Ive got a standard turbo at home (it spat the exhaust wheel the day I bought it so it now sits on the mantlepiece along with a gearbox and pressure plate broken into 8 pieces ) so ill check the numbers when I get home and post tonite/tomorrow.

Just as a note, my last iridum plugs which were NGK Iriway 7's lasted 5000km's before one of them basically "shattered"... am now running NGK Platinums at 0.8mm gap yet they still misfire at high rpm, going to put a set of coppers in this weekend as they are meant to have a strong spark and see how they go.

I have a 1992 R32 GTR and am having problems with the climate control. Ive never used it in the past except for about 2 times. Last night I acidentally bumped the aircon button and the unit turned on, and when I went to turn it off... it wont turn off. Basically all the buttons next to the screen (off and manual) will not work when pressed. I have searched the forums, but havnt really been able to find anything to do with this problem. Is there any easy way to fix or just keep pushing the button and hope it works? I really dont want to have to pull it out

To me it has all the symptoms if a leaking intercooler pipe... check *all* the piping and make sure its on correct and all hose clamps are done up tight.

Im a bit like Bax... I just crave power, some people do it, some dont. To me theres only few things comparable to the thrill of being held back in your seat in a big hp car

Haha thats quite an amusing post sux you got done though how long you down in canberra for? maybe a few of us can meet up, go for a drive, get a drink, anything else that springs to mind...

High flowed ball bearing GT28 from an S15 for sale. 10,000km's old. Urgent sale, $1200 or *serious offers*.

I had Pirelli P7000's and Yokohama AVS V102's (I think thats what they were from memory)... *awesome* tyres, even when they were bald they had insane amounts of grip... but they wear out damn quickly. Ive currently got Falken Ziex on mine (255/40/17) and they are crap, I wouldnt reccomend them to anyone. Only reason I got them is because I needed tyres then and there so didnt have much of a choice in that size. The only tyre Falken make in that size besides the Zeix is the FK451 which is meant to be a pretty good tyre and average on tyre wear... im going to give these a try next time, and are anywhere upto $400 a tyre (the prices on these seem to vary quite alot).

Id say 2.5" to keep some back pressure, 3" is priobably getting a wee bit too big

I agree with this, while im no suspension expert, my car currently has rebuilt standard GTR shocks with some funky green Japanese springs in them (the color coding looks the same as project mu stuff) which are reasonably stiff, but not too bad. The car however at stock height handled like shit, body rolling all over the place and didnt feel very stable. Ended up getting a whiteline handling kit (front and rear swaybars, castor bushes etc) and I was amazed at the improvement it made. The car still has a bit of roll in it, but feels *ALOT* more stable when driving hard, and would be comparable to lowering the car/hardening the springs to improve handling. Im now an advocate of doing things properly rather than just slamming a car on stiff springs to improve the handling... its a whole package, it was explained to me the suspension is there to do one thing, cushion the bumps in the road. The sway bars and other bits and pieces are there to provide the handling aspect to the car.

ed R34 youre not "eddie" by any chance are you? if so ive met you at g-techs a few times i think, ive got white r32 gtr, and was out on sunday night at lake george... if youre not eddie, then completely forget everything ive said

sounds exactly like Auroras car and he now works at the transact building, so id bet money on it is his car ... you saw it when we were all out at summernats although it was lacking the intercooler back then

Damn... I was getting quotes of $400 a tyre for these in 255/40/17's... where abouts are you guys getting yours from?

It might have something to do with whatever was going on at exhibition park on the weekend... just a guess though

Also posted on the shogun forums

Not really a database, but you can call me on 0404952078 and my names Nik... chances are ill be with Aurora anyway

Sounds good, im definately down for this... I hate Good Friday, its possibly the most boring day of the year (at least at Christmas ou get presents).. why dont we make it start meeting up from 4:30 as im sure we will all probably hang around for a while. Then if anyones interested we could head into civic and grab a coffee/beer maybe somewhere? Anyway whats say we all meet at 4:30 - 5ish at the Carrillion?

It tells me youre wiring is shorting out somewhere... grab a multimeter and go through the wires you played with to make sure its all hooked up and grounded properly

spotted at the house opposite mine a yellow r33 with gtr bodykit... looks pretty nice

Well I dont think a whole lot is organised at the moment... I might wander on down to the elite cruise (at regatta point 9pm tonite) and see whats happening there.

I think hes reffering to the return pipe to the inlet (plumb back pipe)

well... so it was

Haha did you end up getting rego on it Stirlo? Unsure if ill be at the museum, if I am it will be at 9PM and not for much longer, as were having severe "weenor" problems... come past and see if im there or try ring me

Where abouts are you heading for coffee? Ill be out and about as normal, do you want to meet up for coffee, or for a cruise afterwards?

Id say that would be Stirlo's car
