  1. And if you were going to do the bottom end why wouldn't you go forced induction?? Its just one big vicious circle! Haha
  2. What year is the car mate?? Rather important detail.
  3. Thats what we pay for ultimate anyway isnt it????? 14c a litre extra is such a rip off its bullshit! Does the cost of that little extra refining go up each week above the crude oil price?? I doubt it. Rip off merchants! Thants why monopolys suck, but i supose a duopoly isnt going to be any better they will just fix the prices, thats why an independent 98 would be good. Just a shame we live in a lil country town with 1 refinery. Bummer
  4. In my cusco 1.5way (rear) diff i used castrol SAF-XA which was reccomended to me by someone who installs a lot of cusco diffs. Mine is pretty noisy but i think that has more to do with how it was installed, unfortunately i didnt get this guy to install it as he was busy at the time.
  5. Thats a damn shame mate, I was actually in freo that night and remember seeing your car, looked very nice and still looked nice when i was heading home, so they obviously hadn't attacked it yet. How come the old lady that collects the $$ for parking cant give you a good description?? She is there pretty late i thought.
  6. What rock are you guys living under?? As far as i knew multinova's always had red flashes at night, well they have for at least 3 years or more. the multiple 70km/h limit signs on south street, are enforced fairly regularly as its next to murdoch cop shop. Buy a radar detector mines very handy.
  7. I was just saying that the PFC started heaps better than my wolf3d. Xspeed were telling me they would get a much better result tuning the pfc on my car than the wolf. I also wanted to know why people think the d-jetro is only good for WOT on a drag car?? What are there reasons behind this logic?
  8. Maybe put it on silviawa as well as they seem to think its a pretty universal kit, i may be interested depending on what i do about a tune.
  9. From what i was told today Ants GTR running Wolf3d had afew issues he couldnt sort out, so he switched to pfc d-jetro, supposedly it is the reason it now has 800hp instead of 680 odd. This was at xspeed who suggested i switch from wolf to pfc d-jetro on my s14 as im havving issues with it atm. Ant thought that it would give a better tune and start much better, as mine is a dog to start and idle with a/c + fan on etc. I dont know if i want to fork out near on $2k for another computer when i already have 1. I havent heard experiance's from many people running d-jetro yet and am interested to see if it will be worthwhile on a motor thats already done 178000kms. Adam
  10. I Currently have a wolf3d in my s14 and its a bit of a dog to start and xspeed reccomended this ecu to me, that gtr cranked over strait away when cold this morning. Why wouldn't you put it on a daily driver? Supposedly it will be able to be tuned much better than the wolf according to them. But for the cost im not sure at the moment. Anyone got any experiance with the product??
  11. They are perfectly legal to use and own, been pulled over many a time with mine up. They also pick up road works, crew signals and emergency vehicle signals. They should be allowed in other states if u ask me as they are advising u of upcoming dangers. Politicians lick nuts PS if you buy one for $300 you are wasting your money i wouldnt spend under 800, that or buy a second hand top of the range one.
  12. A daihatsu handi van , you may have to bolt a recaro to the roof to drive it tho
  13. I just bought an s14 over an r32, the weight of the line would be my only concern, but insurance for an s14 is a bitch, i was lucky enough to go through wesfarmers. but they only do home and contents and a few cars as a bundle.
  14. A better alternative would certainly be community service, no jail that costs me $$ in tax no confiscation thats just a breach of our rights in my views untill cars become an illegal item. And driver training and martial arts are deffinately a benefit and teach control and discipline and anyone that takes notice to what they have been taught will not be out there thinking they are a hero (what a stupid comment) the whole idea of driver training is to teach people these things we drive are not much different to misiles with brakes. I would also love for someone to prove to me when the last time someeone died doing a burnout come on! A place to take it off the roads would be a great idea but the government wouldnt cough up $$ for that they would rathere band aid the problem untill it becomes infected ( and 25 ppl die in police chases) and then they might help with funding. Seems stupid as nearly everyone in Aus has a car and there are about half as many race tracks as methedone clinics and what % of the population is in need of this treatment.
  15. I found s14's were more expensive to insure even not being an import. Good luck finding a good condition r32 interior anyway they dont exist every single interior i have seen has had some kind of flaw. R32 will never b as quick as an s14 with the same mods. Im in the same position as you and have decided on an s14 but only bcoz its newer and i cant find any good condition r32's. Either way they are a good car, but spending more on a newer car is probably the smarter way to go. As well as parts for s14s and sr's being more plentiful. P.S who did you get prices for insurance from?
  16. Can i ask what brand side skirts are on it?? and the rest of the kit? Soor for being off topic but BUMP Looks shcmiko id buy it if it was in WA.
  17. Black Rx7 on Silwa for sale cant remember details minor mods etc looked schmick.
  18. Collie and MC motorsports not hard to find info
  19. I have a trusted Mechanic who happens to be a family member and has looked at a few cars that " looked ok" but found many hard to pick things and has prob saved me thousands of $$ in the long run so i get him to check everything out for me and he wouldnt have the time for a trip to melbourne. Sounds paranoid but its not much different to importing a car from Japan, minus the language barrier.
  20. Where are you BTW?? And tell those kids to keep away from the flamin boat shed!
  21. Shame your not in WA as i would have probably purchased your car, but i wouldnt buy one without my mechanic looking at it. Btw what does RWC mean?? i know its something obvious but buggered if i can work it out.(road worthy check??)
  22. Yeha was probably after a 93 man and in WA its hard to find one so i will get it privately hence no warranty
  23. The yanks got a 2.5L as they have shit fuel and we dont get the 2.5 bcoz its a private import company making them in the UK, if you read the article it tells you all this.
  24. Yeah but it is the media! Last time they said it was a gtr it was a p plater in an na rb30 r31 They only write stories if they are interesting and if they are not interesting they will ad lib
  25. Yeah tried a search but will have another look in FAQ. Im subscribed to hpi so got that but it honestly did tell you that much a few obvious things but nothing you cant see for yourself.
