Well Dereck has gotten back to me and it looks like we will run this soon after easter on a Friday for $150 a head. Just waiting on an exact date. But given the information who's prepared to pay $150 for an early April, Friday track day run be 5th gear.

There's no substitute for testing what a car performes like in the real word, but getting even a passenger ride can be very hard. No two cars are exactly the same but I went the Garret 2860-5's (like the HKS 2530's) and my car runs the same (as in pick up) as when I had the stock turbo's except with much more power around 4500-5000rpm. Saying that they are now running 18psi and I'm not sure if my original turbo's were in the best condition. If I were to do it again I'd try the GTSS HKS turbo's. But i'm considering the 2.8 stroker unit + cams to bring boost on earlier.

And before you bag someone maybe you should read who you are replying to. Skylinekid didn't say he had a HKS.

Just had two neighbours robbed from locked houses recently. It's certainly going around.

We were looking at the general design, so it looks like the verticle SAU is out with 1 suggestion and 2 no's so far. We will probably try for a more recent picture that includes a models R31 to R34. Would love a v35 or the new GTR :-)

If your in today I might be able to pop on over and apply my great (or not) experiance in determining whats wrong. Hopefully just hose related.

Yes the museum carpark, near the entrance. 9 or 9.30 is a good time to rock up, if you get there at 9 wait for others. If you have problems with the car....welcome to the skyline club.

Something like this, but as you can see I don't have the software/skills to do it properly in a graphic package. (word works fine)

Wakefield? What did you end up hitting?

Yes been through that exact same problem (except the car was stolen as well). I now have shannons preium home insurance that covers up to 20% of household contents in the car. Otherwise you can get unspecific and specific insurance for items in the car (personnel effects) from most big insurers.

Just some vids about skylines and V's Supra's http://videos.topredline.com/category/Niss...c20ccc943f0.htm http://videos.topredline.com/category/Niss...823010896c6.htm http://videos.topredline.com/category/Niss...87e00d52798.htm http://videos.topredline.com/category/Niss...92d006dcade.htm http://videos.topredline.com/category/Niss...84201879f97.htm http://videos.topredline.com/category/Niss...8e3005185bc.htm

We can play with colours if we are happy with the basic design.

Maybe because of this http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/11...ng-t200926.html

Thanks everyone for their input, please add more as you think of it. Currently we seem to have a general want for "skylinesaustralia" or "SKYLINESAUSTRALIA" as the logo with SAU highlighted in some way. The web address down the bottom seemed to be generally accepted A very strong want for a Canberra background of some kind large clear and readable font that is not over shadowed from the background (a very sensible idea) Mick I really like your draft, can you adjust your idea/picture with the following ideas Full black background On top in large capital and white letters "SKYLINESAUSTRALIA" with SAU in another colour (should take about 1/3 to 1/4 of the hight of the flag) To the left side under the first S add the letters A and U under each other. The S the A and the U in the same colour as the top SAU. The picture sitting below the "SKYLINESAUSTRALIA" and to the right of the SAU Add the web address in slightly smaller lettering to the bottom. This should accomplish what everyone has come up with except Donnan's idea (which I really like, but I don’t think we have room)

I'll probably be out as well. Hey Donnon Bec wants you to bring "Mrs Donnon" so she can talk non car talk :-)

I looked around at tints and 250 was a common price for the standard grey/black tint. I was interested in the pure black onex type tint at solartint in Fyshwick. Most professional places do a good job but there's so many different tints I found it very difficult in choosing. PS I’m getting tinting (legal) done soon. Any suggestions on type and why it’s better than others would be appreciated.

That is OK I was looking at running it after Easter anyway. I need final prices before I can look at dates in detail. So I expect to get final pricing next week.

Nope not heard of a V12, had a mate that looked at putting a v8 in a GTR but it didn't fit. With a V12 pumping out some serious torque and power, maybe you should look at a GTR shell and running gear. Use 4 wheels to get the power down. Some of the modded GTS-T's have big troubles getting the power down, but with a V12???

GTST as per sig Mick

Very informative post on rebuild costs etc
