the white one looks better for daily use. minus the front lower bar. but both are going to get defected for mods if the cops check your engine bay . the red one , has a look at me I'm defectable engine bay, with the intake and turbo manifold. the white one has a vented to the atmosphere catch can, defect!! and the loose lines by pod stand out bad. the twin plate clutch , yep they rattle sometimes at the lights, more for racing on and off use, not really necessary for that amount of power, unless you plan on caning it on the track, cause its not legal to cane on the street ? have you looked at any others? in that price range you can get a nice one without a bunch of shady mods or do you want the power beast?(silly me, we all want the power just not the defect sticker ..lol ) and have you checked your insurance yet? you might get a nasty surprise $$$$$

Just came across something kinda crazy ? this forum has some interesting info http://forum.roadsmart.com.au/index.php?showtopic=70 but seriously when was the last time you saw Kia with 8 people in it doing 170kph? without jet engines on the roof? ALBURY : About 5.40pm yesterday, a 25-year-old Melbourne man detected on Hume Highway at Kyeamba driving a Kia Carnival at 170kph in a 110 kph area. At the time of the alleged incident there were eight people in the vehicle. The driver was charged with exceed speed by over 45km/h and an on-the-spot suspension notice was issued removing his driving privileges in NSW

spotted a wine r33 next to me on south rd near castle plaza, dude with tats, not interested in looking over ? spotted a silver or pearl stag in aldinga, sun in my eyes but gave a wave? spotted Cara and Ruben at villis..lol and a yellow R34 GTT with what looked like nismo shopping trolley wing ?, chick driving it. on south rd in the city

I'm in. nice to catch up with ya Cara and Rubien at the clubhouse..lol who is bringing the deck of cards for poker..lol

lol no its paying out huntfield heights, the slums lands of the south..lol crime central, or as some call it. deep south elizabeth..lol... every night was a new crime wave there....its really bad. and ask devine how many houses near you are housing trust in huntfield, last time i looked it was 12 in a small area? , they set aside a bunch mixed with the new houses for the trust and we know what kind of people they can bring in on that plan, not always bad people just the never ending people in people out every 6-12 months. hurts the house resale ??? oh and the area you spoke of has the sewage ponds smell on hot days wafting thru your windows.. Aldinga is nice, but you want really fresh air and silence with some great fishing on your door step Sellicks beach is better. and cheaper too. but one thing to watch out for is they have a lack of sewage connection in sellicks,make sure in the contract you have a 100% assurance of drainage into the mains. caused a bit of grief last winter on new home buyers who signed up then couldnt get mains sewage. septics suck...lol dont hold your breath with the trainline, the delays and costs are huge..but the house value is stable right now down here. the best thing is the quality of living , clean air, views, beach, nice people still, it seems far from everywhere but really its worth every penny of extra fuel to come home to the beach. it only takes a extra 4 min to go to sellicks from aldinga I timed it on south road and 7-10 from seaford, 45min to a hour into the city by car at good times.. and they do have plans for more shops etc in aldinga. the draw back is the trucks on south road driving erradic speeds makes me crazy. bumpy roads of disrepair never getting fixed.(slowly getting better now) and the lack of forward planning in the south , jobs, roads, infrastructure is bad. oh and it does get windy here a lot.. but most of the time its much nicer then in the city temp. wise. and the traffic is going to get worse with the announcement of 1300 new homes in seaford rise, near the bridge on south road heading past the dump. in sellicks you will be closer to the beach, then aldinga. unless you move into the older houses. and sellicks isnt has flat as aldinga so the views are better. plus most of the new house buyers are younger so finding mates in your age group will be easier ? most of us oldies live on or near the esplinade now..lol lucky to live here, in USA you would pay many millions to live this close to a good beach.

Cya then , cheers

Also agree with above, and also check the boost solenoid, you might have to go on a witch hunt with a bottle of water in a sprayer to find vacuum leaks. spray it around in a pattern to your madness with the engine running at idle, if you find a leak the speed will flutter for a second, not harm to engine to suck in a tiny amount of water. just try to keep it out of electronics and connections and dont stick your fingers or neck ties in moving parts mate...lol Good to hear the fan is fixed up , cheap!!! and the brakes , man was that fluid dirty..lol the pulleys on the a/c wont lock up unless the a/c is on, the a/c has enough pressure to kick the clutch in(they use a hi pressure switch and low pressure one too)clutch is located on the front of the compressor. common for them to leak on the top of pipe connections O ring seals or on the shaft if left sitting too long without use. got my R31 compressor fixed up in Lonsdale by a place on Osulleys beach rd. pretty cheap and working still after 7 years now.. but cant recall the name, close to Rob prime on the other side of the street have it dye tested before paying for the regas, . the condenser is also a problem on skylines, can you see in the top of the little glass on the condenser for bubbles or gas moving by ? if your car has climate control set for the lowest temp, mine is 18 and see if the clutch locks up on the A/C ,you will feel it click loud and drop the revs for a second if it works. even if it wont blow cold. if it locks up , have it checked out and regas'd

Spotted a silver r33 4dr with two chicks in it near noarlunga Spotted a dark grey R33 with godzilla rego plates heading towards seaford?, turned before getting next to it at the lights. Black R33 with silver BBS style wheels parked in aldinga a few blocks from my place ?

OK CARA put your guns away I was only joking..lol I wouldn't waste your time either. I appreciate what you do for the Skyline cause. People cant we all just get along ?

unless you know what your doing I wouldnt mess with a diff,insides the slightest error and it will fail when you punch it. the measuring is critical and it takes special tools to set them up. to measure runout and tooth patterns. the gear set will walk out of the case, had a mate rebuild his chevy truck diff with locker, I blew it up one night in the rain.. shot the gear right out of the case and I was barely moving.and that was with skinny tires and less power then a skyline has. my diff sounds like crap too. but mines under warranty still...lol

I second what Pete said !!!! well said

I built with devine 3 years ago in Aldinga, cause they had all inclusive deals. well my experience was mixed, say no to there financing , too expensive keep an eye on the build process, ride them hard or they get slack ass, make sure you have every little detail signed off, they farked up the blueprints with the wrong buyer, the wrong plans twice. but in the long run there is nothing like a fresh clean house. and I got more in the long run, first house in oz stay away from HARLEM HEIGHTS..lol its horrrible everywhere. you can polish a turd forever but it still stinks, crime central I lived there behind shutters for 3 years,, never again!!!! Sellicks beach is a great place with better resale value and fresh air. the beach kicks ass, even 2 k inland you can hear the waves at night.. priceless I'm looking at Sellicks now. Aldinga is nice but now I sold my place for a huge profit and you can get one in sellicks right on the water still,, very nice.. wins hands down. Devine is ok, but haggle they will come down or throw in stuff. hot over 40k worth of stuff free. on top of upgrades for free. really mopst builders are only as good as the workers, go buy them some beer now and then , it greases the wheels a bit...lol
-
Most of the R34 GTT come from the factory with LSD in the later years are you sure its really locked ?. mine does the same thing , sounds wonky and most of these cars dont work well with more then two people in them.to much weight over rear end check your diff oil, it might need changing ? and make sure you use the right kinda oil in it, or the LSD will fail. mine makes a heap of racket but checked out ok.

sorry Cara, haven't been online for a few days, so missed your response , damn 500gb laptop drive got corrupted, and took me a while to sort out without loosing anything. farking VISTA sux anyway do you still want me to pay and give you forms or send them direct? let me know soon thanx hope this doesn't turn into a defect fest. I will turn the camera on them and record every word for use in court , turn over the items to ACA too..lol

First of all, Guilt Toy , look at your little video in your profile of the Skyline doing a burn out ? Hello !!!! WITH REGO PLATES SHOWING!!! either way that doesn't reflect in a good manner to the police trolling the forum looking for a reason to Defect a car. your lucky who every owns that car doesnt get a knock at the door for "HOONING" its just adding to the ammunition of police. Even some of the NS/180 guys with profile photos of obvious defects in body kits, way too low or the wrong wheel offset to be legal? looks nice ...but defectable !!!! Thanks for takening this on Nene, Pete Etc. without someone stepping up to fight back we would all loose the freedom to drive a car of our choice. a few questions probably worn out by now..lol 1. What training do police have in "Identifying a serious defect in any car" besides the obvious, tires,tint no lights. 2. Not only the MP , Dept of transportation head, SAU, Police commander or a few from around the area? not just Neil. how about a Regency inspector who has some pull to reccomend changes?, and at least a media reporter to give the import people a visible voice to Adelaide, without media this meeting could just be swept under the rug like it never happened? and we can show the media we do love cars, not all of us hoon? 3. I'd like to see a report of all the makes and model of car going thru regency, and the official reason for defect, including ones that get off under the so called "Suss defect"(or more like suss hoon, or suss rapest,suss robber,etc. it is supposed to be your "not guilty until proven guilty"? so arrest someone cause they look shifty and might rob somone? doesn't sound very legal to me? and for mass defects in one spot, I'd love to see them pull into the mall and pop the bonnets on a few dozen cars, bet they would find a lot more defects then a Skyline has.)just my whinge..sorry 4. isnt popping the bonnet to search your car considered a illegal search wihtout consent? unless there is obvious problems with safety? or your drug stash is cooking on the turbo? 5. I spoke to regency many times about a RZ Supra I bought in QLD, in the end it turned out to be way to hard, sold the car and it looked stock,had 85k worth of safe mods on it and competely legal to drive in QLD, why do we play the game of every state just wings it for rules? there must be a better way to streamline the system, but doubt that will happen anytime soon. 6.create a true club not just forum, one that actually has some respect for events, discounts,charity organizations, etc. 7. god forbid you think any skyline with a turbo will actually pass a real CO emissions test,,,,I lived in the emissions hell in the state's these cars are not clean burning cars, which is why they didnt sell them there. So dont punch your cat to make it worse ???? if they pass true emissions laws these cars will be goners!!! a simple fix,,,,,sell all of the old skylines , everyone buy a dead stock 2009 GTR.....even more powerful...lol I wish..lol or end up like sheep driving commy executurds with hubcaps and base white paint jobs...still getting defected for having non ADR air in the tires...lol SAU put up a fight for your rights, dont let them walk all over you ????? saying nothing positve/creative wont help either???

+1 For that VU, I can do the same , the Crappadores with punched cats and no muffler on stock pea shooter tailpipes(sounds shit house), and even a little mini bike doing drag race style burnouts all night!!! till 4am was getting ready to shove it up there ass if I heard it go by one more time.. OH and dont forget the N/A Swift or the rattle can paint job Mitsu shit box with a loud ass muffler that does 5k+ down shifts to slow down in front of his house at 4am. mate its not a race track , use the brakes for a change !!!! and I know you have bass but at 4am in a silent area every damn night , turn it down!!!! its like he wants someone to steal his shit , advertising bass right to his door step.... Idiots all of them!!!! Oh and not to pay out bike riders but damn I see a lot of Hoon riders, slamming lanes with riders on the back,or really speeding in the city traffic!!! don't forget the loud as hell harleys(sorry pete) that run no silencer , there excuse ! because a loud bike saves live's????? (due to the noise waking up the lousy brain dead drivers before the poor rider gets sideswiped by dickheads changing lanes into them)? gee maybe loud cars save lives too...lol dont need loud mufflers to be a hoon!!!! idiots come in all packages what about the anti-social behavour of the pushy riders on Anzac at rush hour, riding in a pack of 30 blocking traffic(its not a bloody Tour De France) ? last time I checked its illegal to ride side by side blocking traffic when a bike lane is available? I've riden my pushy on Anzac and I would never try to tangle with a car , screw that!!!!! people drive bad enough , why piss them off too!!! ok maybe I need sleep, after all the downshift/bass/burnout/kids throwing cans noise last night , so I'll stop whinging, things won't change good idea to petition the Clipsal people!!!

thanks damo, PSI has pretty decent prices, but the lip I was making is actually a complete multi piece undertray vented to the radiator and real brake cooling vents, oil cooler vents. but hey if I can get a decent lip already built then add the rest afterwards on thats cool too. save me lots of time so many projects , so little time ..lol

Need Help On Where To Buy Injectors/coil Packs
Carbon 34 replied to r33 chris's topic in South Australia
using dielectric silicone wont fix a dead coil pack but will keep a misfire from occurring from arcing to the head or other voltage leaks , I had a dead coilpack so replaced them all instead the splitfires use a higher saturation voltage then OEM to achieve the kw power increase, also keeps the plugs from fouling but will wear the electrodes faster too.its not heaps more power but enought to feel in the seat of your pants , maybe a few KW tops but the drivability is better sorry didnt read the thread close enough, thought it was a GTR motor. mines a RB25DET NEO for the record. call Sinergy and speak to Rocco to see if he has your coilpacks before driving out just to be safe. they stocked mine. and a few others. NS, ETC. -
thanks damo, I might cut some cardboard out to test it on a few R34 cars to see if the arc to the fender is the same before making molds for mine , be nice if it fit any other years or front ends ? the model year Aug 2000-2001 uses a lot different front bar. hence the series 2 GTT plus a few other goodies too. and your right the fiberglass backing with a pretty layer of carbon on the front part. nice!!!! then i would need some side skirts and a rear under car pan to match and a carbon wing....lol then it would match the carbon dash parts i have...

Need Help On Where To Buy Injectors/coil Packs
Carbon 34 replied to r33 chris's topic in South Australia
got my splitfires from sinergy they keep them in stock, cost about 500 for all , cheaper then OEM and the car runs heaps better, no misfires , smoother idle. seems like more pull to redline now, sputtered a bit before around 6500. money well spent. no idea on injectors but ultrasonic clean stock GTR items might be the go ? -
spotted way to many cars today to list on my way to and from Gawler and ingle farm today. but two come to mind one yellow r34 with a complete body kit, bonnet too, at the dyno on south road by Castle plaza ?,a really hot chick in garage kept my attention more then the car..lol but the car looked like the one Bitz uses in the ad for ADR bonnets ? sweet looking for yellow R34 and i followed down o hall hill and pulled up next to a real nice R34 GTR V SPEC II with some bad ass wheel on it. in bayside blue. but to tell the truth the two guys in it were arrogant tools, I pulled up to say hello and waved. they just fobbed me off like a GTT was a magna shit box not Skyline, he kept boosting near me, but acted like a tool? and up himself. if your on here sorry but you gave off a bad impression of yourself. and you drive erratic , wont be long before the R34 is in the trees the way you drive.
