foxtel/telstra cable dudes are so stupid it took them over 3 hours to install my cable internet. All they had to do was run the cable from the grey box into the powerpoint in my house and set it up on my pc.

seems as though everyone has been backed into, it happened to me too and it cost me $450 to fix and they didnt leave a note or anything

not much aye, waiting for visa to refund my money so i can go and buy new tyres @%&%$ you look busy at work hehe always posting in here

hey peoples, im just killing time before i goto work damn work sucks i feel ur pain sam, when my car was at the panel shop for a week and 1/2 it felt so long i was going crazy. But the day i got it back driving home was the best feeling, and it felt 10x quicker too hehe

mmm i love asian food count me in

Anyone got one of these lying around? They are getting hard to come by and i need cheap timing control Cheers Matt

i got my safcII from nengun to my door for about $430. I was lucky enough to not get stung by customs

dont you love it when things work out cheaper to fix then first thought

ok guys im ordering a set of alloy bushes tomorrow, just incase urathene pinapples wouldnt cut it but still a bit undecided on tyres.....the nitto's are damn good but also wear very quickly. Plus id have to order them and get them shipped which takes time and more money. Theres so many tyres to choose....ill enquire about the falken semi-slick rt-215's today and see how i go.

im in for sure

i hate this game

im not michael my names matt and wot r u sorry for?

lol at the photoshop pics of me hahahahaha yeh thats right whos smooth now, i didnt even know that pic was being taken sorry i split early i wasnt feeling the greatest and i had a few things to do before the day was over

thanks for your reply it has cleared up alot of things for me, I think ive decided what to do. UAS sell nitto's at a reasonable price i might get them and then goto a suspension shop and get pineapples and get the rear alignments checked out. And after all that if i still have problems im gonna find a new toy

i havent had the rears aligned since i bought the car. If it is out of alignment, would re-aligning it back a big enough difference to drop my 60 foot times considerably?

I dont mind spending money on tyres or whatever is needed, i just wanna make sure i get the results (traction) i want. Sydneykid do you recommend i get semi-slicks? i will spend the extra few $$ on them if i have to im just hoping a really high end street radial will cut it.

Thanks for the reply sydneykid, i have the stock r33 shocks and springs and no pineapples, its stock in everyway......I didnt think it would be worthwhile changing the suspension for 1/4 mile drag as im not interested in circut racing or drifting. would urathene pineapples really make a worthwhile difference?

fu:)

which model azenis is that? the semi slick (rt-215) or the radial st-115 or the fk-451 ?

Thanks for all your help fella's i took the car for another fang just then and as soon as i slightly even stall it up, even to 1.5 - 2k they just spin like mad........ But heres my dilemma. What if i decide not to take them back (he said bring them in monday and ill put ur old ones back on and refund me) and then after driving more then 500k's or so they still dont perform how i want them. I see that as a waste of $700 as i could have bought cheap simex's. My main concern is that im going to willowbank in a week or 2 and i want to put down a good time. Ive spent the money on the mods and the car has the potential i just need the right tyres to get the launch. I dont like the tread pattern of these tyres either. They have 4 striaght lines in the middle, no V type angled grooves. The model number for them is S1Z i wanted the V102's but they are unavailable from the warehouse and said these were just as good if better. But the tread pattern on the other ones look completely differnt heres a link: http://www.yokohama.com.au/Tyres/tyre.asp?TyreId=26 <--- thats what i wanted But i cant find any info anywhere about the "S1Z" it isnt even listed in the catalog and theres no info on the net either, so i guess they are an outdated or something. Thanks Matt

my interest is shown btw great idea

unfortunately my rims arnt wide i think they r only 7.5 or 8" at the most. I dont know much about tyres and he told me 235's were the widest i could go on my rims. BTW i have the stock skyline shocks/springs etc if thats any help. I dont know if pineapples would help me a great deal either? some people say they work and others say they cant notice the difference.

i was driving for more then 30mins.......and i smoked it up a bit so they got plenty of heat through them. I am aware that once they get "warn in" they will grip a bit better but if i wait for that and they still dont give me the traction i desire i cant exactly take them back to the tyre shop Thanks Matt

Hey guys, I just got 2 yokohama tyres for $350 each and i told the guy i want the best traction tyres i could get, he said these were it. So he puts them on and i drive off and i rev the car upto 2-3k and try to launch good and they just spin like my old shithouse continentals. I was not fkn happy. I tried quite a few times on different types of road and they still sucked. So i went back asking for alternatives and he was saying unless you buy a proper semi slick tyre any other street radial will do the spin same. Im really kind of shitted off at this guy as my car only has 181rwkw and there must be heaps of people out there that can get traction with street tyres with the amount of power i got. I dont have too much experience with tyres but in my old turbo silvia which was auto i had bridgestone grid II's and i would stall it up to 3k easily and it would just slingshot off the line, sure it didnt have as much power but it still had no problems getting off the line. My skyline is also auto and i want to beable to do this. So i want to know what tyres should i get for $350-400 each in 235/45/17 that will fix this problem. Thanks Matt

shit i gotta goto work i forgot the time have fun tonight
