  1. I am about to confirm a purchase but i need to know what the size of big hose connector that is off the plenum as mine was ripped and was accidentaly thrown away by my dad while cleaning the garage today and i am ordering a silicone hose so i can get my car on the road tomorrow....thanks Note: engine in picture is NOT my motor
  2. Yea skylines are pretty rare in the states as they are hard to insure and get compliance due to the fact they dont pass the crash test there...i recently found out from my dad in america that you can sell your skyline for alot of $$$$ in the usa if you wanted to export it there...
  3. yea mine goes up pretty close to 8 when cold and sits on 2 on idle or just below 2....but factory gauges are never accurate at all...and kris i want your GTS BADGE
  4. well in my 33 it has the climate control on top and dvd player on the one below but below that is a pocket for an extra din....you shud leave the climate control in its place and set the dvd player on the bottom and the screen in the middle and climate control on top
  5. well i tried to convince my mate today before he made his decision to buy a r33 GTS4 that i had found for 11,000 but he decided to get a black 99 prelude VTI-R TRIPTRONIC.....well right now he wished he had bought the 33.....he got the honda from rockdale honda and after having it for 9hours and just driving around and not thrashing it the TRANSMISSION blew and slips in every gear and wont get out of first...even with trying to shift to second in Triptronic it wont go up a gear....well i just had to turn to him and say I TOLD YOU SO.....
  6. well i start to get back fire after i dont do a service after 5k but i am running standard plugs as i was given a whole box of standard plugs from a mate but yea could just be your plugs....
  7. how much am i looking at a optima yellow top?????
  8. yea he is getting a n/a prelude....but also triptronic which even makes it worse......does anyone have any suggestions on wat car he should get that could make the most power out of a non-turbo/supercharged motor and also auto......he saw this thread and feels very upset LOL but now he is looking for any suggestions on what car to buy....thanks guys and he only has up to $10,000 to spend
  9. I went last year to this one wen last year with proton GTI club in my proton and this year i shall attend this one oh yea......i am bringing the skyline along
  10. Put me down im in for this one....
  11. my mate is NOT buying that one, he is actually going to buy a strandard prelude and now he is wanting to do the same conversion and paint it the gunmetal grey like the SII r33's.... i haven't should him this yet so keep em coming but i just talked to him and he said he has been talking to a few panel beaters that think they can pull off the conversion and can cost up to $8000 just for the conversion
  12. Hey guys i notice my battery is starting to SH*t it self due to the old age and not being the right battery it has the bigger clamps due to fit a different battery but what battery do you guys recommend...i got a big sound system aswell...i want something that wont let me down....thanks
  13. LOL well keep them coming.... he is coming over today so i will show this to him.....i really started looking at the work that came into it and if you really look at it doesn't really suit tail lights are rounded but kit looks really square
  14. NNNOOOOO!!!!! dont go through carmate as they have a bad rep wen they do send out kits BUT....Jack at X-racing is very good he supplies some of carmates and jetspeeds kits.....and jack makes all the kits himself so he doesn't import or buy from no one their all made by him...he did mine.... www.xracing.com.au
  15. LOL i kinda knew i was going to get these comments but yea i am trying to convice him to just get a skyline.......but yea any comments would be helpful as i will show this to him later...maybe he might just change his mind
  16. My mate is buying a 1997 honda prelude vti-r and he absolutly loves skylines....but since he is a red p plater and cant drive turbo...he saw this and thought if this is a good idea i honestly think it looks good but he was wanting to know would it be worth it...and how much do you guys reckon it would cost for the rear tail light conversion and would it actually be legal here in NSW... http://www.cardomain.com/ride/553310
  17. thanks for the comment i been doing some research and looked at the actual 400R and it had the OEM factory side skirts fitted...beats me.....but i am soon to find some matching side skirts or might just take it back to jack at xracing to make up some custom ones to suit...and the rims they look like alot of rims that are out as you mentioned they do look like the ones at bob jane but mine are ORIGINAL stich precious rims from japan....which i honestly think makes them a bit unique in a way.....
  18. I hate people who lie about thier cars same thing happened to me when i had a ma70 supra....the guys said it was fully rebuilt and transmission had been changed.....i later found out 3 weeks later when my motor blew that it was the orginal engine and then 2 months later the tranny blew it really pissed me off.....as for my skyline if i was to ever sell it i would provide alot proof and reciepts that my motor has been rebuilt and everything thing that has been put in the car has reciepts from the forgies to the injectors so that everything is legit....
  19. yea i was thinking of getting a power fc.....how much do you reckon it would cost to get one and get it installed.....and eddie wer did you get your side indicators????? and does anyone know where can i get the original 400R indicators or some that look the same i dont like the whole trailer light thing
  20. that was no suprise as i knew the civic with that many mods was going to win. if we turned it the other way a stock type R vs a r34 nur spec which would win????? i would like to see them on the freeway and see who wins...
  21. well i am going to paint it black when i get the chance but i am not too worried about the front middle cause i have a FMIC on its way...
  22. well i am going to get some sideskirts soon and the rear pods i got made and their unique in a way and different and that is the way i wanted the car to be because their are too many skylines on the road, espcially r33's and i wanted to be different from everyone else.....
  23. well rims are only 17inch, and look small in the pics but are alright for now till i lower the car and the rims will stand out then....as for power i have MILDLY modified it and i haven't pushed it to its limit, i have had it dynoed once...right after the rebuild just to see wat it does and didn't even get close to 6500 rpm as i was scared i would blow something since it was just freshly rebuilt....i pulled 172.3rwkw....but since it has been 30000km after the rebuild i want to take it down to get it dynoed again but on higher boost but i am unsure how far to push the turbo....does anyone have a figure that i might could go up to...someone once told me since the turbo has been converted from ceramic to steel and highflowed and ball bearinged that i could push 25psi but i am not so sure that is true....i do have a flick switch from 7psi to 12psi....
