hey all not sure if i am posting in the right section, but i just need some advice. i just got the timing belt and all the other anxillary belts changed. the belts are new, so the mechanic decided to tension the belts a little abit more. my question is: is it ok to tension all the belts a bit more? would that cause any adverse effects? and also after the timing belt has changed is there any 'rules of thumb' like you should drive it easy for the next 100km or can you just drive how you normally do?? i ask this because i know with clutches and brakes theres that "bedding" in stage. i was just wondering do i have do the same with the timing belt. i'm just after some advice, hopefully someone can help, cheers in advance Kind regards,

Clutch Recommendations
R33LIN replied to mr_rbman's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
cheers for that cubes, i do hope my clutch lasts for a while though. its only 10,000kms old the costs of a clutch and the associated labour is painful, definitely dont want to fork out that amount of money anytime soon. -

Clutch Recommendations
R33LIN replied to mr_rbman's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
hey mate, ive got an extreme HD cushion button and i can vouch its a definitely nice clutch to drive, clamp well... and definitely not too heavy either. As BAMR33 has said, they are quite bitey and need to be engaged without riding it. pretty much need to be on or off. though i am not too sure if it will be able to hold 300rwkw. anyone who has tried and test want to shed some light on this. btw BAMR33 how long have you had your clutch for, How many KMs? how much power are you running? i hope my clutch lasts for a while still. cheers -
hey mate, it depends on what your after either a custom set up or a aftermarket jap brand. if your after custom, i would pay your local exhaust shop a visit as they can tailor an exhaust system to what you want: style, noise level, performance etc... but if your after a japanese brand i would try the for sale section as there tends to be second hand exhaust systems floating around. Or as members have said up there try the sponsors such as justjap etc... hope that helps, cheers

+1 i personally wouldnt be using ATF. ive read on here its definitely not good for the manual box. just use castrol vmx80 (i think thats it!?) cheers

its a sad fact! but unfortunately not really much we can do about it. but ive heard this as well. something about cops have to meet quotas or esle they are get into trouble. i guess these days the police business is not about catching the crims and serving the community but more becoming about meeting "quotas". definitely, a revenue-raising operation.

Adelaide crows! then again i dont mind the Power. and yes i do agree the crows are in alot of trouble atm. i fear they may miss the finals with their current poor form. the crows vs eagles game was shocking! poor skills and poor execution. just an update: Basset is out for a minimum of 6-8 weeks.. meh... theres always next year. Carn the crows!

hey mate, not sure what the rules are in other states, but in SA. you need a brake light at eye-level. so either a light in the spoiler or a brake light in the rear parcel self. so i suggest to go to your transport place in your state, ask them if its a defect and yeah go from there. but i have a feeling you'll need one. they can be bought from places like supercheap auto etc... and are easily wired. hope that helps! cheers

hey mate, glad to hear that you sorted your problems out. my friend had the same problem as you. purred like any rb should when cold, but when it reached the operating temp, the car would pop, splutter and sound like a rexxie. this problem seemed to caused him poor fuel economy as well. all in all the problem was a shot coilpack. since then, its been replaced and no more dramas, cheers

nice work mate, cheers for the pics. defintely looks the goods,

+1 hrms the pod filter screws on at the air flow meter. irregardless of whether you use a panel filter or a pod i am pretty sure u have to have the afm (correct me if i am wrong!). with the pod, you do hear an induction noise. if sounds/noises is all you want then you could always take off the stock air box cover. that should give you some induction noise hope that helps!

What Clutch Kit For ~250rwkw?
R33LIN replied to nsta's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
when my clutch went, i went for an xtreme heavy duty cushion button, its slightly heavier than stock but the clutch feels pretty stockish and firm. good for daily street, and the odd spirited drive, drift, drag. before i went for this clutch, the clutch place advised me it could hold 250rwkw comfortably. you could also try kudos motorsport on here, they sell exedy heavy duty clutches at a good price. hope that helps! -
imo, i wouldnt increase boost through the stock smic. due to the small dimensions of smic it gets "heat-soaked" pretty quickly on stock boost. i mean you can up the boost, but be aware that your smic will get heat soaked even quicker. invest in a bigger fmic and your away. hope that helps! cheers

Turbos And Intercoolers From Ebay?
R33LIN replied to vladinator's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
hrms, not too sure if the stock ecu can handle 15psi... anything over 12+ psi and your in rich and retard territory. though some sau'ers are lucky to get 14psi with no rich and retard on the stock ecu. just my two cents... cheers -
i agree with ^^^ firstly, get a compression test (gives you an good indication of whats the go) and from there decide what you want to do...engine rebuild, forged pistons etc... goodluck mate!
-
+1, APEXI power intake for the win! though have it shielded with a cold air feed offcourse!
-
yeah mate, 15k is a good price though as long as your happy with it then its all good!
-
hey daniel, looks the goods mate, well done!
-
i agree, your clutch is definitely on its last legs, best to replace it before you go no where. in the meantime, try not to put it under excessive load. goodluck mate,
