  1. Got 3.5 inch on mine. Real low bass like sound comes out of it, and smooth. I have no mods in my engine bay so its no the loudest.
  2. Thanks for the info guys, very helpful. I think it needs a good flush because the water looks like its mud. I have noticed the ehating going up now aswell. Another 2 questions. 1. My brother in law told me not to put just any coolant in there ,that i should read the manufactures manual and see what its compatible with. He told me that the brown sludge is not the coolant but the corosion the coolant is causing, and that anit freeze adnti boil stuff you can buy from K-Mart is hazardous to the car. Anyone back this up? And if so, what coolant do you reccomend. He told me to put Toyotas Coolant Inhibitator that you can buy from Repco. 2. Anyone can direct me to a website that shows step by step how to flush my system? Pictures would be helpful. Thanks guys.
  3. The cooling area of my R32 GTS-T has gone to bits. 1) When i run my car no water leaks it goes normal...when i park it and switch it off and say after 15 mins of cooling down, water begins to trickle from te centre of teh bay, so its more than obvious its the pump right? 2) The collant tank is the first to drain out, then say after a day or 2 the radiator begins to drain. What the hell is going on man? And the water that i refill turns to smudge like brown and orange, i think there might be a blockage thus causing the discolour? Help us out here fellas it would be much apreciated. Thanks.
  4. Its true, but the actual fuel isnot that mainstreem so its at selected stores. V- Power is stocked evrywhere. Personaly i use Mobil, i find its better for me in terms of how quick it burns. Other than that, i dont havy any big mods so i cant tell if it goes harder between all the fuels. BP burnt the quickest.
  5. Hey guys, yeah like i said at the begining of the thread, its my thoughts on image this car has. Ofcourse it is logic that the Skyline intimidates people who are gullible to race on the public road , and these are the F2ckers that ruin it for us. I just wish people could learn from others mistakes, but as humnan nature has it, we learn the hard way. Thanks for all your thoughts and the maturity behind them. I can now show my girl that the Skyline brother hood isnt all made up off barbarians. And i realy wanna tag along on these Skyline cruises that are organised. Im in the heart of Sydney city CBD.
  6. Just thought id spill my emotions here and hope that some of you feel the same way. Why is it that everytime someone sees those cycloptic eyes on the back of the skyline they wanna start something? They rev you out, the try and take over you, the driver stares at you like theres going to be a showdown. Why is most of these numb skulls Holden drivers and funny enough not Fords? Is it the whole bathurst thing? Why do cops always hound me because some aholes bring a bad name to Skylines and other performance car brands? Why is that some d!ckhead (another customer) felt like he could step in my car to check it out at an exhaust service place while im standing right there?! Why do people jump on the bandwagon with Skylines when they have no real passion? Why do people actualy waist so much money on mods and then say i wanna sell to upgrade?? Do you not love the masterpiece you created, that you slaved over? While we go and buy the magazines and droll over it and wish we could actualy fork up the cash to do the same? Why do idiots drag race on public roads, seriously man why is it a need to proove you can go quicker than the guys next to you, should the thrill of the accelaration be when on your on open roads, or for the track? Because at the end of the day your getting to the next set of lights 2-3 seconds quicker. He will be right next to you again or overtake you becuse the traffic on your side is worse. I know, it itches to slam your foot down , i have paid the price for it, its realy lame. Loosing your licence and watching your car sit there is no prize for going quick. Why do europeans have the image of being hooligans in cars? All i see on the news is the anglos and asians crashing there cars and we get slammed because the system is to loud...proove me wrong in terms of ratio. Overall , its an honor to drive next to Skylines, it amazing how they never wanna drag, and when i see them ther role up and cruise in sicn with the exhaust noise doubling....theres always the slide the window down and ask whats udner the bonnet, that respectful. And thats they way we should all roll. Didnt mean to offend anyone with my words.....
  7. Thanks fellas....once all this is done im smacking a vertex body kit on it and doing some audio work...il take pics and post them. P.S Any ideas how many KW im gonna get out of the suggestions above? 10-15kw? I dont wanna waste money for a dyno although it would help to point out where i need to perform.
  8. Hey guys, before im asked why i have an auto turbo it was the only way around owning 2 cars , as my fiance wanted to drive it aswell. Im raly bored with the power although it hollers after turbo kicks in it realy lags down low, like take offs. What can i do to help it here. I guess i shouldnt be picky and ask what power gains can i get without denting my wallet? Pod Filter? Intercooler? ECU adjustment? It looks as though it already has a 3 inch from the cat back. Any help would be appreaciated, the car is in excellent original condition and i dont see why i cant have fun with it. I have lined up manual versions (not worked) and i dont see a great difference apart from the revs.... Although its obvious the auto tran cant take alot of power before it breaks so no major mods please. Max spend im looking at is 1.5k Cheers fellas.
  9. Hey guys, thank you for the replies. Adam it makes the skreaching sound in the mornings especialy, and yeah only after start up it doesnt continue. I also forgot to mention another noise problem. Some have told me its the starter motor...sometimes when i start it it makes a massive skreach sound as of i had the engine on already and i pushed the key further. Soem say starter motor, some say the altanator and some say the key sometimes doesnt catch the threads inside the chamber properly?? I just doent wann make a fuss of it and when i take it to get it repaired it could be something i could have fixed.
  10. Hello, seems lately my car is having idle problems. When i start it even after i have given it a run it sounds like its going to sieze. It has done it twice now. I have lost my licence so i havent done a major tune up for about 8 months. Is it this problem? And after i start it in the morning theres a skreaching sound from one of the belts. Timing or fan? This means replacement time right? The car has done 90,000km.I should change it to be safe. Hope you guys can help out. Much appreciated.
  11. Hey guys, im sure as most of you have experienced electrical problems with the R32. I just wanna know if any of you have the english lay out of the the fuse box map fo rthe R32 GTS-T? PDF format? I searched and all i got was the "Sky is the Limit" PDf booklet, which only has the R33 version, and when i compared it to my R32 there were differences. Hope you guys can help me out! Thanks.
  12. HI guys, i have haerd these are a good investment for turbo engines, but i have also heard they shouldnt be installed unless you have seriously modified car. I have a stock R32 GTS-T, can i install one in mine?Should i? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks guys.
  13. Thanks for that dude, will do. an yea, its actualy so clean the speakers in the rear, if you check em from the boot they are original, the cones have turned to dust!My mechanics couldnt believe how original the car is motor wise.Thanks again everyone.
