could you find out the postage of the r34 rims to 7250 for me buddy? also incase that is a lot i might be able to wangle a deal with my work.. so also if you could find out how much postage to SRT Logistics in Laverton - Melbourne 3026. Thanks a heap in advance.. Cheers Ben

Hey there, if you wouldnt mind Pm'ing me the prices for the cooler and brakes aswell please... also some pics would be nice when you get them up

Could you mail me some pics of the 34 rims please...?? and let me know if you would be happy to get these to a courier? - i would cover the costs...

- I got a Specialized "Sirrus" flatbar road bike. Its good and i like it, basically just used for Commuting but i plan on going on a few bigger treks some time soon. - Good Point... My girls will love it.... While im at it i might just put the wife up there too and take the passenger seat out and install something more useful. Thanks all for the suggestions. I think that im going to go with some roof racks simply because i dont have a tow bar and dont really have a need for one. (Lots of utes in the family). Now i just have to go shopping around and see what i like the sound/look of.

Hehehehe too true... but add 2 kids, 2 baby seats, and a ridgeback dog and a subwoofer... Now fold the seats down?? - squash the kids... let the dog run through the car... and jam the bike handle bars through the sub??? good idea Or get roof racks.... infiltrator - I agree with the tow bar though...

I am wanting to cart around my new Bike and i was wondering what others have done. What route to go? Towbar with bike attachment or Roof Racks?? Any input would be good

a quick pic might help -

Had Good Fun Today... Even though the Boys in blue happened to know which back roads were being used and just happend to have 4 or 5 speed traps out for us within 30kms.. there were few injured wallets. Thanks all for showing up... Here are some pics of the day... i wont load all of them as there will probably be too many... *Hope this works - LOL*

We got a day then???

does the cargo net bit come with that blind that you pull out across the boot? or is it just the net?? if you could let me know that would be cool Cheers

I iz seen ya!!

Nice to meet you all. Was a good day. And with regard to the comment on having a washed car... I washed my car, then it rained, then it was dirty, but i still turned up.... Its interesting that most of the stageas were manual. Anyway it was good to see whats about and maybe next time we can go for a bit of a drive aswell

And then a Pint @ Irish??? I think that sounds like a plan...

Just post a time (preferably around lunch - afternoon) on sunday and i will be wherever it is.... Within reason, within 100kms of lton

Im in Richo... Just need a time and a place... sat morning next week or Sunday afternoon would be good for me...I got a wedding sat afternoon and i might not be quite legal sunday morning... Anyway just contact me on facebook or send me a pm in here or give me a ring and let me know..

Great info... i will have a look into the part number for the bearing for my rear bearing aswell.... I did want to just say this.... I took the car to Ron's Automotive, Ronnie had a look at it for me (For a carton of our local finest) and found something quite interesting.... The front tyres were ROOOOOOTED... Out of round/out of everything, they may aswell have been made out of clag glue and paddlepop sticks... he checked all the links and mounts and found that they were "2nd hand" but definately not in bad condition. He said that with new front tyres and a wheel allignment that the thing would be fixed... So, Off to Jaxx i went... 2 new Pirellis and Bob's your uncle.... Fixedaroony... Top Bloke Ron... So there you have it... Pedders Suspension test was going to cost me $3k to fix everything. And what it actually cost was, Wheelbearing and new tyres and wheel allignment.. *note to self - that was a carton well spent...

Its all good Duncan.. I dont have that 2nd bearing... She'll be right... Now i got to address the rest of the issues... It did take out the wobble in the steering now though..

Hello All, Some of you may have read my topic about suspension woes here --> http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Su...da-t309179.html In it i was mentioning about the rear passenger wheel bearing being knackered... I took it to Tas Driveline and they were able to fix it for me, however there was something interesting that i found out in the process... The Manual and Automatic Stagea have 2 Different rear wheel bearings... Sorry but i dont have a pic, All i can say is that the manual one has a form of spacer on top of the bearing with a 17mm bolt hole through it that acts as part of the mount. It is a hub assembly (like the auto) but without that spacer on top the auto bearing wont fit in the Manual Stagea rear end... So There you have it.... if you didnt know... That excersice cost $370 for the bearing + labour....

Thanks for the info mate, i rekon i will swing by there tomorrow and have a chat... see what he rekons... Sarah might be getting a company car soon which means the stag might be able to get a few perks.... will have to see,... got to fix a few things first

Hey Richo, Where is Ron's Auto? I should go and check them out... I didnt know you were on this forum... nice to know... if i dont get a reply i might send you a txt.... hmmmm i wonder if you know who i am.....

Thanks for the tip... I might have to give you a msg some time.. we can have a compare and contrast... and i will go down to Autobarn and have a look. Thanks again

I will get a 2nd opinion on monday from Jaxx here in launceston however i dont really know where else to go. Here in Launceston there is Pedders Suspension and a few tyre shops, but Pedders is the only real suspension place that there is that i can think of... I suppose i could go to RACT or Midas or something aswell... Not much choice around here... I will also look into the parts needed, i have got a rear wheel bearing through Tas Driveline. They said the latest ones they have are for a C34 Stagea from 99. So i hope that they are the same.... I know nothing about them... Hope it fits... On the suspension side of things, the main thing that i want is for it not to be rock solid like my old skyline... i am after a factory feel. but if i can get that with some coilovers then i might consider it... Does anyone know anything about the pedders sports ryder Coil overs? i got suggested them, but for the price i dont know if Tein ones or Blistien ones are going to be better/worse.... I am looking for build quality and ride comfort... Thanks for all the replies..

definately pm me

you dont happen to have a steering rack for the stag do you??

Still got the Steering Rack and mounts? - let me know
