Terminal

Spotted a white Gloria crossing over belconnen way tonight while i was going down over the same intersection into belconnen. sounded awesome and looked even better with those pillarless windows down

sounds like a winner, perhaps RC40 is the transfer case?

it has something holding the foot brake, i wonder if we can use that instead?

yeah my old kingswood got about that well, 300km to a 70L tank. only a 4.2L V8 too, a baby

you're talking about the side indicators or the front ones? the side ones just come out as one unit, i didn't think you could separate them. i'll have a look at my old orange ones tonight and see if i can give you some advice. i don't need them anymore so i can afford to break them

rachet + socket, and yes it's a bitch

I'm lucky, i'm getting my brothers' Chaser and R33 for a whle, so i'll have a few cars spare while i'm getting the conversion done. means i can wait a bit longer and get it done right. My mechanic wants to do it well because he's thinking of getting one after he sells his GT Forrester

yeah as Brendan said, they move to one side and then you can lever them out with your fingers or a soft (not screwdriver) levering device

you mean access to remove them from the boot? you need to remove the carpet panels then they just unbolt from the inside.

Since Canberra is in the thread, we've got a meet happening this Saturday afternoon for a photo shoot. It's at John knight Park, a few of you might be familar with this being the location of the Marques in the Park event late last year. Anywho, if not we'll be posting the photo's as soon as we get them. If any of you guys from sydney aren't busy this weekend, Canberra is only a 3 hours drive. there should be at least 3 of us, hopefully more. Cheers

No, the orange ones in the grey strip are the indicators, the ones on the side of the lights are park lights. you could change them to be indicators but i don't know how the cops would go with not having park lights

Beastian has done some research into the Master cylinder issue. the RSFour-S uses the R34 GTT master and slave, and they're a bolt in job. the Series 1 has the resesses set in the firewall, you just need to cut the 2" hole as stated above. there is no need for a vacuum booster since the RSFour-S doesn't use one. The slave then needs to be setup for the gearbox, being either R33GTR or R32GTR. If the master being used is for a GTST/GTT i don't see why a GTR pedal would be necessary. Maybe the reason for the Engine Out option is for a vacuum booster so you can run a harder clutch for a GTR.

how're you going to have indicators then? or will you go the route of the R33 style and use your parkers on the side?

I know someone on the forums put a QF45 into their NA R33, and the M35 stagea comes with a VQ25DET i'm pretty sure

mine are too, but they burn in summer!!

my avatar should be the front of my car with the intercooler showing now... i think.

I'll be getting a power fc once my manual conversion is done. one step closer today, got some clutch cylinders

Muhuhahaha, check my avatar, clear!!

whats a loan?

I'm fairly sure they're the same through the skyline series' too, i have an R34 one in my car and i had an R33 fit at one stage too

My local nissan dealer was nice enough to get me a part yesterday. one of my hooks that the lugage divider hooks onto in the boot had snapped off when i had stuff in the back. only set me back $15.20 for a new one. he's a bit of a import fan, so i think he likes to help us out when he can.

Yeah, i didn't need it to happen again. Last time i ordered Coilovers from Nengun, i only received 3! i was spewing then i tell you. turns out the lady at the post office couldn't read the '2' under the 'No. of parcels' section on the invoice.... well, soon enough i'll be clear indicatored all around, no orange lights to be seen on my Series 1

That's sweet as, i'll take 7! as for a written off stagea, i don't even know where to start looking for one, probably have to import it hey?

I know an ex-pat stagea owner Jay95R33 had a Unichip installed in his stagea, then he sold it to someone down in melbourne, but i can't remember who. I spoke to the guy who installed it, said it was a bitch but now he knows how to do it it's an alright job. performance would be similar to a Power FC he recons, but losing a bit for the auto box. only problem is it isn't tunable at home, you need to take it to a unichip dealer to get it dynoed/tuned if you upgade anything or just need some adjustments.

Edit: Just got a reply email from Slidewize. turns out the seller didn't send all the lights in the first package, then they purhcased another part for a different buyer, and he was going to send the other lights in that package, but then that package got cancelled, and the lights were forgotten about. they just found them and have sent them over at their cost. Well hopefully in a week or so i'll have a full set of lights
