I heard a rumour that there was an ultra rare HR31 convertible? NFI whether it's just a story or not. On a slightly related note I have seen a factory convertible MZ20 Soarer, looked shithouse compared to the coupe.

im glad you got it PM-R33 well for starters, in your sale thread you mentioned it having 230rwkw and 50k spent on it. Therefore I call BS on you even owning this car.

was the rev limiter set to OVER 9000! ?

gah i thought school went back already! You need a tshirt printed which says "I spent 38 grand and all I got were these lousy chrome rims" LOL

if you could make 250rwkw on a stock turbo nobody would bother with high flows my car can be viewed by clicking underneath my avatar fyi The flaming wouldn't be as bad if the OP didn't try to BS as well lol.

so you're basically lying about power figures and ETs. You're dreaming if you think that the stock turbo can make anything NEAR 250rwkw with the stock AFM and computer as well. I give the car 1 out of 10 only because the paint looks alright. Rims look like cheap shit with a crappy offset and don't suit the car, neither do Autobarn stickers or painting the interior white on a red car (clashes badly). Put the spoiler back on, fk the rims and stickers off, do a LOT more research about RB25 modding and you've made a start. IMO

It seems weird that your injectors are nearly maxing out at 200rwkw :S Have a look in the dyno thread for some ideas

lol it's all reletively speaking though, 1300kg isn't really porcine either

I found that there was no perceptible difference between the heat range 6 and 7 apart from the 7's carbon fouling even faster lol. Might give these v-groove ones a go next time though

well I tend to trust Trent's comments on parts given that he generally tests what he uses.... but for my internally stock motor OEM seems to work just fine

Just use genuine Nissan filters!

4 inch exhaust? lol. IMO you'd be best off sticking with the Japanese made stuff.

Ok well I'm basically asking if anyone has much experience with usenet as opposed to torrents; I have had to join UseNext with a trial account to download some pr0n, but I've had to stuff around with .par files and missing parts of a 3 gig archive argh, is this par for the course? Download speeds were impressive, but if I'm going to be paying 10 bucks a month for the service I don't want to go through this process with everything!

japanese import spares? it wasn't that RB25det with the ARC sticker on the timing belt cover was it?

Australian Dollars?

when you start making comparisons of your car to an F-14 and yourself to Tom Cruise, and try and race planes taking off

you revived the thread to talk about a pissing contest on the STREET when the community here is trying to disassociate Skylines from 'hooning'. You are a gaylord

Skylines aren't the easiest cars to get rid of, especially around here, so yes Birds I am living beyond my means, but selling my car for a huge loss is the easy way out. I like to think of the fact that it's sitting there as an incentive to find a job so that I can spend money on it again!

I think that if they want to impose these BS laws (thankyou tabloid media outlets who encourage this crap with beatups) then Police accountability should be tightened up a lot too, ie none of this bullshit VicPol pull 'threatening' to give defects out or dubious at best defects / fines. A good example of how they are assholes when it comes to trying to intimidate modified car owners is thus; when I had my VN one morning I did a U-Turn and the diff locked causing one of the wheels to start audibly squealing. The cop who tore down the street and started blasting me was only mollifed and called off the tow truck when I cracked it and said "where are the skidmarks then?!" and started taking photos of the road. This wasn't an isolated incident either. The hoon laws have done fark all here, one of the state's apparent hoon capitals. I see cars going down the highway at well over 100km/h as soon as the police finish their patrols. All this is going to do is increase the number of pursuits, cause hey if I knew that my car was going to be crushed, I wouldn't be stopping, what would be the point of that!? The Liberals with their see through "me too"ism and blatant attempts at vote grabbing are absolutely pathetic, and I'd hope that people are smart enough to see through some of the ridiculous statements made by them recently.

Didn't the later R32 V-Spec's also have the crank collar?

Dr Drift's website

Birds, I can afford to service and maintain mine (within reason) - I do not have the luxury of public transport or having another car to drive around in so I NEED to drive my car to go to interviews, appointments etc. What I am getting at is that I can't afford the ~$2k it would cost me to take my car to melbourne or adelaide to have it retuned. So therefore if someone dobbed me in to just be an arsehole and to create work for the EPA, I'd be fairly raging about it. It's bad enough I got a BS 500 dollar fine like 30 other locals simply for driving a car at the wrong time (EPA testing station). So no I think you're just being a prick if you dob in smoky cars etc UNLESS they are doing something dangerous.

not neccessarily living out of their means Birds, some of us happen to be unemployed....

you should take your Cefiro down there funky to show Pettett how "hellaflush" your wheel fitment is, he may give you the prize.

that's right, what if there was say a similar thread on another forum and the people there decided to dob in every Skyline which has a small puff of black smoke on gearchanges?
