  1. All good Paul, happy with the offset on mine. Look good! Thanks for that Dale. Of the two tyres I'm looking at, one comes in 245/45, one doesn't. Cheaper one does!
  2. Weird that yours was so far out, must have been the snow tyres. Mine is about 8% out I think. will go the 245/45s, just limits tyre selection.
  3. They did look good on the car but we ran out of time to do it on Tuesday. 235/40 looked like it'd measure faster than 245/45 but I'll check when I get home again. not really after low profile, more the right size. Staying 18 though.
  4. You may find stock camber chews tyres... That's why a few of us ordered camber bolts.
  5. Norwood Auto Services dropped off the car this morning... New ball joints New SuperPro bushes New SPC camber and toe bolts New adjustable rear toe arms Handling is much improved. Much less freeplay than previously, feels great. Still feels like it pulls to the right, going to switch the front tyres around tomorrow and see if that fixes it. Regardless, I'm going back next week to get wheels and tyres sorted, so all good. Also test fit the new wheels, fit perfect. 18x8 +34 Braid Winrace A, white. In stock with SA Motorsport Tyres, Just trying to decide on tyres now. Looks like 235/40 R18 of some description. Had plenty of time to drive it, 800k's over to Calder Park for Rally Calder this weekend. Cruise control is a godsend Leon! Works great!
  6. My M35 always shows 4 when I select manual, but that indicator isn't always accurate - mine won't take off in 4th.
  7. This will help Dominic: http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp Stockers are 17x7 +45 IIRC (Alex did post in another thread though). I think standard/original tyres are 215/55R17? That's whats on mine anyway, going to check that shortly so I can make sure the new tyres fix the speedo.
  8. Spotted in my home state, a rare occurence! Spotted a silver AR-X on Hampstead Road with DC sticker on the back - Jidge? Partner was driving and had no interest in returning my wave!
  9. +1 United 100. My car always seems to run better on it, not sure what the difference would be for a tune though, 10% ethanol vs BP Ultimate. You only have two Uniteds with E85 in NSW? We have more than that! Plus even more when you factor in Caltex and Liberty...
  10. No, found someone locally with a Nismo spoiler at a good price. I'll post pics soon!
  11. $110? My local wanted $165!!! Ah well, getting it done by NAS this time, see how we go. Always been happy with Pedders in the past, but costs just added up this time because I wanted them to fit some other stuff.
  12. I thought that, but sits back too far compared to mine. Nice car! Do like the Impul kits.
  13. I'm getting mine done at Norwood Auto Services this morning, pretty cheap and new gear. The guy who runs it used to work at Morpowa and seems to know his stuff.
  14. I thought I linked to it? No matter, here it is: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/389161-superpro-group-buy-for-v35-skylines-and-m35-stageas/
  15. Ok cool. I'm going to make a new thread so everyone knows dates times etc. Sounds like a good crowd. How much work have you got left to do to yours Jase?
  16. Yep, I posted updates in the thread in the group buy section. Just organising to get them to all the Adelaide guys at the moment. Last of the order arrived yesterday!
  17. No worries Leon! I think everyone has theirs now, and I'm doing the rounds for the local guys at the moment. Mine are going in tomorrow, can't wait to get it all aligned!
  18. My air con hasn't been working, which is somewhat understandable with some of the high temps we've seen lately in Adelaide. I figured it might have something to do with the thermo fan, which hasn't worked since I put it in. I have never seen it spin. Hooked the multimeter up, and only measured a negligible voltage. I cut off the dodgy solder connection, and put new crimp connectors on. Tested with a 9V battery, and the fan span up and ran fine. So the problem must be the signal to the fan - the car just isn't switching it on. Is there a fuse I should be looking for, or is the car just deciding it doesn't need to kick this fan in? I seem to remember this fan also sitting in front of the air con condenser, so thought this could be responsible for the crap air con. Any ideas?
  19. Fixed your post
  20. No worries, thanks Andrew. Hopefully everyone else did too! Adelaide order arrived, but was a couple of parts short. They should be leaving today. I'll PM people with details shortly, busy as at the moment!
  21. Guilt trip? Me? Never! I don't know how reliable your source is, but I'll be running things pretty much how Big Fella used to - pick a meet point, PM those who are attending, done. We generally behave ourselves on cruises, no tunnel runs, burnouts, etc, so I'm sure we'll be fine. Well thats the date, so see you then!
  22. Yep. Hopefully bushes should turn up today, they were sent express yesterday. Then I can FINALLY get my bloody wheel alignment!
  23. I've got option 2. Like the square rear, and on a white car theyre very subtle.
  24. These are the, not the bushes. Got your tracking number today though.
