Kaitoukid: I think it's up to the cop at the time. I stupidly got done for hooning once (little fishtail), car got impounded for 48 hours & I asked what would have happened if it was my parents car. He said if I could prove it I could drive my car to the impound yard & swap... This was 2-3 years ago though... They wouldn't let that dr have his Lambo back when his mechanic was hooning in it. Shadz: I think exactly the same. If you get busted for a third offence & know when you pull over your car is going to be confiscated & crushed that is just ammunition to run. Can definitely see an increase in high-speed police chases....

I'd probably grab one depending on price...

Sweet. ^^^ Are they pics of the replicas from said suppliers or pics of genuine Brides? Also how does pricing compare with original post? I think seat price is fair but postage, etc is a damn killer!
-
NYTSKY maybe you can suggest a good supplier to the OP? He seems open to suggestions if people know the seats are good quality... I would feel better handing over my money if I knew someone had seen them before & said they were half decent

What car? What globes? Pics? Have done late-night country driving in several cars with high-beams on for hours (with the very occasional dim when another car passes) & never had or heard of this...

So $440 delivery for a pair to Melbourne? What's quality like?

Thats genuine parts for you unfortunately. I bought a complete R33 for parts & the bushes from that were good so I swapped them in... -

Not sure of part number but I asked Nissan about them once for my 32 & they wanted about $20 or $30 each... -
R34 Auto Complete Flush
wlspn replied to simjim89's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Drop pan, change filter then undo cooler return line, feed it into a bucket then run car constantly topping up trans while old fluid runs into bucket. You can expect to use a lot of oil depending on the condition of whats in there. This will get 90% of old oil out but obviously there will still be some remains in converter, etc. Won't hurt at all... As for mixing fluids it sounds ridiculous but I have seen some cars come through the shop that drive like a dream then after a service, flush, whatever drive like crap for no apparent reason... Saying that these were normally old cars. Wouldn't hesitate to change fluids. -
Which Has More Potential In The Long Run?
wlspn replied to TurboDoseBro's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
lol, just messing with you dude... For all I know you own a GTST! Just amazes me how many people (& not just on here) believe that the ONLY true jap performance car is the GTR. If thats the case why do the jap workshops build other cars at all... & don't get me wrong I love GTRs! Just not one-eyed so to speak. Would ideally build my 32 GTST as a hardcore RWD then later in life build a 34 GTR. The main thing right now putting me off building a GTR is if I started I would sink a lot of money & would prefer to do that with a 34. Where for a lot less money I could build my GTST.... Out of intereset what is your opinion? From your reply it seems you may have some understanding of the benefits of RWD race-cars? In all seriousness as I don't really follow it, are there any/many RWD time-attack cars, either here or in Japan? & how do they rate against the GTRs/Evos, etc? -

Yeah, how dare people not realise the GTR is the absolute be all & end all of performance cars! Stupid pricks with their ....... opinions! I for one sincerely apologise... Dont like it GTFO -
Couple Race Car Build Questions
wlspn replied to Super_Dude's topic in Motorsport Discussion & Builds
Is S14 subframe the same as R33? If so is it only the swaybar & upper camber arms that aren't interchangeable? -

wlspn replied to TurboDoseBro's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
How much grip is provided by the GTR on corners though? Serious question, not a smart-arse remark... Bought the GTR I have not long ago in need of repair, & most others I have driven are mates so haven't really driven a GTR in anger for quite a while. I know the GTR will rape on launch but how much difference in corners? Serious suspension setup & wide, sticky tyres would obviously be necessary for RWD -
Looks like it. Are the blue bits rubber or solid? Would say they have to be removed (try prying out with safety pin, etc) then there will be a retainer holding the pin in which will have to be pressed in (try pin again) while the wire is pulled. If you haven't done it before (& even if you have) they can be tricky/fiddly...

^^SKYLINE, even with the RB26 in the GTST its still going to be lighter & have a better front to rear weight ratio due to the lack of front diff, transfer case, etc, etc... I am going through this decision as well. Currently have a GTR & a GTST & am tempted to put all the good GTR bits on the GTST & do it up as I believe I can make it a better car than the GTR for the same budget. -
Yes at the moment you basically have it set up to increase understeer. Maybe start both on soft (1) & increase rear stiffness until it feels well balanced...

wlspn replied to Daleo's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
Are you able to get cheaper prices on Skyline bars if they are bought with the group buy? -

Questions About Water Temp And Thermo Fan Setup?
wlspn replied to BrynDETT's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Yes, that is an air diverter. In most cases a lot more can be done for engine cooling... Make some custom ducting so all air coming in through the front bar can ONLY go THROUGH the intercooler & radiator, not around it at all. So loke a divertor but top, bottom & sides... If necessary use foam beside the rad to get the best seal you can -
Would probably be keen on the duct depending on all dimensions & price...

To Go Itb's Or Not Worth It? Read On
wlspn replied to Simon-S14's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
X-Rated, I know a place called Mace Engineering make the phenolic isolators/spacers. They advertise them on their website as 10mm or something for around $100 but apparently they can supply whatever thickness you request. Unsure of extra costs though... If you get some prices let us know. & Simon-S14, did you read his whole thread? He welded on to the head, then machined his welding flat, tapped threads, etc to re-create the RB26 stud pattern on his NEO head... Quite a lot of work!
