  1. hi there the rust on the rotors are no more, but the rust on the small circle around the rotors is still there and i that was what i really wanna get rid off.. i'll post a picture tomorrow, cuz it's too dark outside for a proper photoshoot =) a R34 GT-4 is a non turbo skyline running on 4wd.. like a wrx? so i can't get like a deep dish at the rear. so next time my pads wear out, i'll just get it changed at the brake shop and get them to machine it for me at the same time? but how do you get all 4 rotors out? what's your car standing on then? thanks
  2. hmmm hmm hmmm this sounds much much better =) btw what's an aftermarket intercooler and what does it do? thanks
  3. *bows* i thank you!!
  4. hey guys hanyou mentioned apexi as the most popular pod filter (i saw the website with the review saying it's the best), is there a website comparing all the different front panel air filters? cheers
  5. heya mate.. it's circled well enough, the plate that you mentioned is the black bit with the jap writing? what's a snorkel? cheers
  6. *nods* no pods then.. if it's illegal unless enclosed, what do people do when they need to go for their green slip? *wonders* cheers
  7. Hi there, I've searched the website but just found posts on which ones brands are good, panal vs pod etc.. I understand what pod air filters are now, and Skyline uses panel air filters as stock. I was just wondering if I wanna get a pod filter, how do I install it and if I wanna change the panel air filter, how to do install that as well.. cuz i opened my bonnet today and I can't find a place to put a pod air filter. Thank you guys! (...and girls..) p/s- are pod air filters illegal? i read some mentions of us getting defected by the cops if pulled over n they got us to open the bonnet
  8. hi there where can i get the rotors machined to get the rust off and how much would it cost? cheers
  9. I'll see if there are any pliers that i can borrow off my work tomorrow.. cheers mate.
  10. hi there i unscrewed the screw, but am unable to pull the whole piece of plastic out as it's 1 large piece extending to the little compartment beside the handbrake. I'm afraid of pulling hard and snapping something cuz mine is an auto and there's the power/at/snow switch in front of the ashtray. but I tried pushing in the silver bit in the cig slot so that it 'hold' the charger more, I also bent the copper looking piece (at the very end of the hole) inwards as well but stillcan't get a charge.. what's a multimeter? and anywhere i can go to get it fixed or get someone to put in a new cig lighter slot for me? I don't mind paying like 20 bucks or so.. cheers
  11. hmm try hard as i may..i don't see the antenna for my R34.. where r the antenna located on the R34? I've seen some antennas on other R32 R33 skylines.. just I can't find mine. weird question eh.. hmmm cheers
  12. Hi there, just wondering what's a afm? cheers
  13. Hithere, is this true for all skylines? I drive a R34 and was wondering how many litres the tank hold. So it's 65 for R34s too>? Thank you
  14. Hi there, is it easy to replace the cig light slot? i'm not too good with tools. can you explain to me how you changed the cig lighter slot? cheers
  15. Thanks for finding them.. man 1200 each means 4800 for all 4.. WITHOUT tyres.. man it's crazy.. guess i'm not getting them after all =) but at least I know the name of the wheel... hmm about that lotto ticket cheers!
  16. Hi there, I was just wondering whether I would need to change the car cigarette lighter to use my car charger for my ipod and phone. I just bought a new ipod car charger and it works with cig lighter slots in other cars but when i plug it into my skyline's slot, there's just no power. Is there a difference in the cigarette lighter slots in japanese cars and local made cars? the cigarette lighter slot is working fine, the cigarette lighter gets red hot when i push it in, so what is the problem? thank you
  17. hi there guys, just changed the wheels of my skyline and found that the disc rotors r pretty rusty and the brake looks pretty ugly.. was thinking of changing the brakes.. would the disc rotors be included (like in a package) when I change it or it needs to be changed seperately cheers
  18. yes yes yes these r the wheels that i am into..SO beautiful
  19. 400 bucks for a new exhaust? hmm that's pretty cheap.. I'll def look into it. thanks mate!
  20. Thanks alot mate.. just 1 last question.. roughly how much would this put me back by? and any recommended exhaust shops in sydney? cheers
  21. hmm sorry if i sound like a real car noob.. i use to drive an echo.. but what piping? I know muffler but have no idea what's a resonator or a catyltic converter (that's a mouthful) can you explain to me what that is? Thank you.
  22. Hi there guys I was wondering if it would be worth it to change the exhaust of a automatic skyline r34 gt-4, would there be noticable change in performance? I was wondering which exhaust would u guys recomment, by the way, if it's beneficial to change, I'm going to get a quieter exhaust, not one of those that u can hear from 2 streets down, I like a nice sound but not those terribly loud ones. Thank you.
  23. Hi there guy, I just bought a skyline 2 days back and is having heaps of fun driving it around..clocked about 270km since sat afternoon since i got it (it's monday 6pm now), but the rims of the car is really ugly..so I'm thinking of changing it but I went to tempe tyres and I can't find a rim that I like.. I f anyone has been to the sydney motor show in the past 2 weeks, I'm looking for a rim that is similar to the ones on the black (souped up by ralliart) Lancer Evo IX. It's very dark (gunmetal perhaps?) with a red line around the outer edge of the rim. It has like maybe 5 spokes (i know it's called spokes on bikes, not sure what's it called on car rims), 5 things that connect the centre of the wheel to the tyres... I was wondering if anyone knows where to get such rims? I was thinking of 18" cuz i dun really wanna have too bumpy a ride. Another q is where did you guys get insurance thru? I got it thru Just Cars and it's costing me 2500 with a excess of 1400. is this average? Another q is that when I bought the car, the dealer told me that I won't get the rego papers for the skyline but will get like a paper saying that I bought the car. Is this correct and what would happen if I wanna sellthe car and I don't have the rego papers. thanks for the replies that will follow.. Look forward to being a part of this community =) S
