  1. Thanks for all the help everyone, I reckon I'd be beyond help if one of these guys couldn't sort it.
  2. Went in to the local and only on the Gold Coast Nissan dealer for a few oil filters and innocently asked what oil Nissan spec'd for an R34GT-t, it was all downhill from there on, I was condescendingly told 'Nissan don't recomend any oils for imports' in a manner that left no doubt that if he had to choose between serving me and a pile of dogcrap the dogcrap would get served first. Is this a general thing ? I had heard that Nissan whilst not being encouraging regarding imports were at least mildly supportive regarding OE aftermarket parts. But maybe that was Mitsubishi ?
  3. In that instance mahap the mods could consider a sticky with workshops in it for each state ?
  4. Thanks mighty for that
  5. Hey, thanks mate, I took it back to where I bought it from this morning and thier guys reckon its a dirty throttle body which is, of course, a service item-ah hem- me I'm not so sure. It's not a majour thing, I'm just a fussy prick when it comes to my ride.
  6. Could anyone point me to a workshop on the GC that knows what they're doing ? I have been told that there may be one up towards Nerang that are very good but the teller didn't know any details.
  7. Thanks for that, yup fully understand, best results right gear, my bad, I'm thinking 02 sensor or idle control valve/TPS, I've reposted in general.
  8. I just bought a 98 R34 GT-t and it has immediately developed a fast idle, around the 900-920 rpm when warmed up , and minor flaring on gear changes ,the car has stood around on the dealers yard for the last 4 months that I know of. The car did not do it when I test drove it on Saturday. Where should I start looking for the cause/s. This is my first Skyline so I'm as dumb as a post when it comes to tech knowledge on these cars.
  9. OK--So any ideas what might be amiss ?

  11. Good stuff , you have PM.
  12. Like the topic says I need an R34 GT-t Stock Airbox, it would be good if I could get the fasteners as well as I have no idea what bolts hold it in. I'll throw in an HKS pod set up free on top of the purchase price to maybe encourage a quick result. I'm on the Gold Coast so local would be handy, not essential though. .

  18. 7 or 70 who cares - if you have nothing constructive to ad to this thread I'd suggest you follow your own so freely offered and so totaly unwanted advice. It's no 4 just in case you're not sure--you'll know what this is when your mum translates it for you. If on the other hand you can actualy read on your own and do have something usefull to add go ahead . Actualy try to reply anyway even if it's rubbish--it'll be get my post count up replying
  19. Whatever you've been taking you should iether take the right dose or stop completely-- or perhaps being a retard is normal for you , it's frightening to think you're actualy out there driving a car--or are you , can you actualy reach the pedals and see over the steering wheel yet ?
