  1. Check gearbox mounts too
  2. It seems to be hooked up properly. Are you adjusting the high or low boost on the boost controller. If you turn the high boost thingy, you'll need to flick the switch for high boost to see what it's set at.
  3. No it's not a Skyline link, yes it's for a Supra, but again, most of it still applies (Bar how to directly adjust suspension stuff) http://www.supraforums.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=18639 And EUG, your bug gets me everytime! nearly everytime I go to wipe my monitor!
  4. All those covers are the same. We have a VERY expensive one on our Chev, dust still goes through. We got those thick winter type sheets and stitched them together as a first layer, they sit on the paint, all nice and soft, then the other cover goes over it. Can't remember the name of the material, but it's those really thick winter sheets etc. Others will know.
  5. I got done for mine by HWP last December No fines, just had to pay for blueslip, who then demanded I have it engd, so it ended up costing me $350 (And that was a VERY discounted eng cert) My engineer was in a happy mood, so yeah, cheap prices on eng cert. A mate got done around 3 months ago in his R33 for a pod filter by HWP, and he copped a $70 fine. It's up to who ever is issuing the defect notice whether they do or don't fine you, and how much it costs.
  6. My skyline is manual. It's pretty fun, but there's so many times I want it to be auto... I'm currently selling it to build my other car, which is going to be staying auto. Why? I'm getting over the whole clutch thing. When I can smack the loud pedal and have it take off. Plus the torque multiplication from the torque convertor. That and as Security is saying, an auto Skyline is 100times easier to launch. Whilst it should technically be half a second slower, when you compare it with great drivers in both. In reality, most people on the road can't launch a car for shit. I'm one of them. I tend to leave the mark either bogged or frying tyres. I've never frakked a launch up in an auto yet. Plus, torque convertors don't where out any where near as much as clutches do.
  7. He might seeing how america is like all imperial and all...

  9. Price Drop. Okay guys I need this sold, as I'm commited to buying a new engine, to drop into one of my other cars, which is going to become my daily so that I can save for my unit. Someone must want to help me out, give me a ring, have a chat, come have a look, see if you like. This car WON'T disappoint.
  10. Vote1 for Shaved head/thinner head gasket. Increases CR a bit. Most likely a few degrees extra dialled in on the CAS. Check what timing it runs at idle, unsure on the GTS, but on the GTS-t it should be 15degrees.
  11. Okay. My Supra held dead level, with a R34 GTT (Auto in both) Later on, I got my rear end handed to me by a V8 VN with an exhaust. Basically, the R32 would most likley be beaten down like my Supra against a V8 in the VN. Now against the V6, on the roll, I just start to loose out. So I'd be hazarding a guess, that the R32 would loose out too (BTW, my Supra IS twin turbo)
  12. Back to the top Guys, I'm open to offers, also forgot, the car has Split fire coil packs.
  13. Crushing the cars gives people more incentive to run from the police. Which, 9/10 ends in a much more serious accident then what usually happens in a street race. Most street races involve a straight stretch of road. High speed police chases involve every piece of road possible.
  14. Where are you located?
  15. AFR heads lean at the flatspots. Indicates: a) Not enough fuel entering engine b) Fuel isn't actually burning (Miss fire etc as mad082 said)
  16. Remember, each cone you hit, is something like a dog/cat/person/telegraph pole. It'll do more then chip the paint in real life... Also, the skid pan day I did, I didn't see a SINGLE piece of damage to a car, even the onet hat dragged the cone under it at 80km/h for aorund 150metres...
  17. If there's no recirc pipe, that's most likely one of the huge issues.
  18. If there's a recirc ppipe, then that's like saying, with a hole in the intercooler piping, put an AFM so the ECU knows. The air, even if the engine is pulling air through the BOV from the recirc pipe, the recirc pipe is still AFTER the AFM, therefore, it's affectively just "changing lanes" but it still went through the toll
  19. Did you just have hte other car idling whilst doing it. Nearly all cars I've jumped have need the jumping vehicle to rev engine to around 3000RPM before attempting to hit the key on the dead car. Sometimes letting the connection sit for 30secs can help (But don't do it with shit jumpers) and also make sure the jumpers are hooked up the right way.
  20. Turbo does nothing at idle. Air comes in through AFM, through turbo, through throttle, into manifold. If BOV is open Air comes through AFM, through turbo (And also through the recirc pipe and comes out just before the throttle) and then into manifold. Whilst the car is in vacuum. Air is being SUCKED not forced through the intake.
  21. If it were a factory BOV you wouldn't have aproblem if it were open at idle for letting in unmetered air, as it'd just be allowing the same metered air to travel a different path INTO the engine.
  22. Come on guys. It's making me cry just having this car sitting there (Yes it drives 100% perfectly. Yes I'm 100% licenced, Only reason it's not being driven is that it's no good to ME as a daily, and I'm just far too busy of a weekend to take it for a run.)
  23. Caps are NOT needed. A cap is really only good for one or two notes, after that, they're out of power, and then they're attempting to draw power to charge up. They're only really useful in a one note burst. Full song, no way. Basically it needs a better wiring kit, and a good alternator.And according to Rockford Fosgate, that is only a 400Watt RMS amp.
  24. If they get in the left lane, and stay there I don't care. If it's on a single lane road, then as you hit overtaking lanes they speed up. They need a knee capping!
