  1. Andrew, no worries! I'm only going by what knowledge I've been told/read about. I've heard alot about the 'oil mods' with RB26's over the years. Some people say just chucking a normal U-turn is enough to rack up the G's to cause the oil issue lol. Yeah, I've never been on the track with mine, and it's only basically bog stock! But yeah, the only thing from stopping me from taking it out there was due to the much-talked about oil pooling issues. But if that's the case, then simply over-filling with oil would be fine? It makes sense, though... as when you think about it, the higher the rpm, the more the oil pump is pumping meaning more oil is heading up to the top + combined with the high G's (if you're going fast enough).... ... ...I think I just answered my own question lol. So in that case, would even a oil cooler be required? Even now, on a 38 degree day, my oil temp. barely reaches 95 degree's.
  2. Vu, was that due to your defect?
  3. Yep oil cooler but + oil restriction mods? Too much oil gets in the head when cornering hard which would equal spun bearings below? Have read about it countless times! Oil mods like redrilling, etc and fitting oil restrictors to stop the amount of oil pooling in the head, and the redrilling so the oil can reach the sump quickly again. But it's always best to overfill the oil when going out on the track, too! Ah... so keen to bring out the GTR to this, though...
  4. I like your style, Rhys.
  5. Luuuuuuuuuuuuucky no defect, Mitch! But failure to maintain vehicle = demerit points, too?
  6. Yep - db test at idle and up to 4000rpm (or 4500rpm). Had to be lower than 92db! So shove the stock cat/baffles/steel wool/a small rabbit in there to quiet it!
  7. I'd bring out the GTR, but it needs new rubber + oil mods Grip only? I'll let my mate who owns a Leopard know... he'd be keen to bring that out. He usually goes out there once a month.
  8. And Hicas MUST be working and engineered if removed. Edit: locked diff MAY be okay if it doesn't clunk and stuff. But there has been reports of people getting through with locked diff's.
  9. Haha Saphire, if we had a President for Car Spotting, you'd be elected!! Spotted a Bayside blue 34 GTT parked on Wakefield street just before. Looks the goods! No rear wing, lowered, and a canon.
  10. Oh lol. Yeah dyno readouts seem to be different from dyno to dyno!
  11. Rhys, how many kw's did the GTR make?
  12. That's a pretty good result, Mitch. Considering stock standard RB26's will pull between 170kw and 180kw at the rears with the 4WD fuse taken out (R32's) on stock boost (meaning the restrictor still in). Mine pulled 174.6kw at the rears on stock boost (the GTR still has the stock boost restriction in it! Never been touched), stock turbos, 3 leaking injectors (found that when it was on the dyno), a collapsed centre muffler baffle and a stuffed cat. No ecu mods, no EBC, stock intercooler... only mods are twin Blitz pods. Pretty good result! And the engine is in good condition (170psi across all 6 on a compression test, leak down test proved it's healthy, too). Once I've replaced the exhaust with a full new system, I'll put it back on the dyno and see what I get. The injectors have already been fixed. My exhaust is that badly clogged, that I can expect to see a large difference (like, 20kw or 30kw extra lol). Mitch, What do you mean you've modified the coilpacks? If you've ripped out the stock coils and put in Splitfires thinking it'll improve performance... you've wasted your money. Nissan Standard Coilpacks are the best you can buy... Splitfires are a cheaper alternative.
  13. Lol Damo, I got 47%... I didn't even understand it!
  14. Ah awesome. Thanks for that.
  15. From memory, dot 3 isn't the best brake fluid... isn't dot 4 meant for high performance cars, and dot 5 is for motorbikes and/or drag cars?
  16. Craig, that's been there for a few days/weeks now! There's a thread about it on ns.com.... got stolen from a driveway, then gearbox failed, so they torched it.
  17. Basically the darkest legal tint. No idea what % that would be, though?
  18. Chad, are you running standard internals? Or are you running some form of 26/30 or stroked 2.8 kit lol Weren't you pumping out 230kw with the standard turbo's? That's nearly a 100kw power gain! Lol that's crazy dude.
  19. Ah excellent - down South would be preferred!! I'll be in contact in say... 2 weeks? By then, I should be all ready for the tint. Cheers!
  20. Oh awesome. I might give him a call. Boostcruising is blocked here lol
  21. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/St...move+rear+seats Lol.
  22. Hey, Can anyone recommend a mobile car tinter? I need my GTR tinted + my bullshit purple tint removed on the rear windows. I can't seem to find much around? It has to be a mobile tinter - most of my interior is stripped at the moment so I can't drive it around. Cheers
  23. Lol... I got my Mum to take through my Familia back when that was defected. Didn't change anything! Still got knocked back but Mum got told she drove a very nice car lol.
  24. He's a P plater, too! What a hoon.
  25. Price drop on a Quad-turbo R34 with 1000+ HP http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/priva...id=119674FB437E
