  1. Ordered a NIStune today from Garage 7, and should be installed next Monday afternoon. Fuel cut defender will be taken out, because apparently it is useless, and just tricks the AFM and ECU into doing different things. Tune and Dyno time will be done shortly after. I'm unsure what power it will make. I'm hoping 16-17psi daily. When i told Decs, that the former owner said it make 217kw on 18psi, all i got was laughter..i too have my doubts about this. I'd like 180-190kw, on a pretty reliable tune, nothing silly, but enough to keep me occupied. I'll keep ya posted. Jake.
  2. LOL. Well played seller.
  3. NOT YOU TOO! Everyone notices it! I'm not exactly too sure why it's there. Probably going to get my Momo Typ 35 steering wheel re-trimmed, and a momo horn button fitted soon, so it really isn't annoying me. Also, tonight after work i fit up a new set of spark plugs. NGK Iriduim IX's. The older plugs that were in there (Bosch Platinum's) weren't that bad looking, had the usual burn marks on the tips. The Bosch one's also had quite fat tips underneath the metal barb covering it, whilst these NGK's have almost a pin needle with end to them..can anyone tell me why? It seems to have fixed the flatspot i had also..strange things.
  4. Got off defect on South Road tonight. McLovin it.
  5. Resistance. If you have one globe that is out..it causes the rest of the indicators connected to that line to blink faster due to less resistance. Make sure all your globes are the right watt, and you should be ok. Feel free to correct me though.
  6. I've got the same problem. Either what Chad said, or a bad earth.
  7. Highgate.
  8. Cheers guys, Didn't know many people still liked 2 door R31's! Car currently does have some small things that need fixing.. seems to have a small flatspot at 3000rpm, but only in third gear..wether that is spark plugs, coilpacks, or something else, i plan on getting on to it. Also, has a bit of detonation at 5000rpm. Again, it'll need a proper tune, this is where the NIStune will be coming in handy. I'll most likely be giving Decs at Garage 7 in Adelaide the reigns of her, he's a good mate, and specialises in R31's, so i have no doubts about his abilities. Being an apprentice diesel mechanic myself has it's benefits, a pit, quality oils, scanners and trade discounts at my disposal, i plan on making this thing run well..might enter a car show here and there, also, plenty of Track Days! My old automatic r31 loved it last year around Mallala, so this thing should do the same!
  9. spotted a white 32 with gtr front, stockish height, and black rims pulled over by an officer at about 12.50pm, on south road, just before regency road..then stopped off for lunch, re-joined the road, and he came up next to me sporting a defect sticker.. made me i was in the work van. and a black 32 with meshies, sounded pretty nice, next to me on south road, as i was turning up flagstaff hill road, at about 5.30pm.
  10. Hi, Im Jake, im 19. Recently i purchased this bad boy. Its a 1987 Nissan Skyline HR31 GTS-X. It has 126,000kms on the clock, and im stoked! Runs a Redtop ECCS Rb20det, with a couple goodies, including a HKS 2510 turbo, GTR Intercooler, Malpassi Fuel Regulator, Fuel Cut Defender, BOV (needs removing), 3" Kakimoto Exhaust, Oil Catch Can, RB25det rocker covers, and a pod filter. Suspension wise, it's got Pedders lowered springs, Pedders Shocks, and adjustable castor rods. Rims are a set of 17x9 Stich Meshies for the front, and rears are the same, but in 9.5. Paint is a custom pearlescent black. Basically, it's a 2009 Hilux black, with silver taken out..and a bit of sparkle/blue is added, looks pretty nice in the sunlight. Exterior consists of a GTS-R spoiler and a modified GTR front lip. Interior contains a CD player, Autometer Boost Gauge, and a Personal steering wheel. Like every kid out there..i want this thing to have a rb26dett, full straight cut gearbox..yada yada yada, but no. For the time being, im planning to get a NIStune, some decent spark plugs, Yellow Jacket Coilpacks, Coilovers, and a proper tune. Nothing over the top, but something that i can manage to keep me, my bank account, the parents, and the police happy.
  11. Sounds about right. Add hoon/drag racing/teenagers to any story, and you get more readers. Also, this business about advertising 'for sale' signs on your car is getting hilarious, Leon Byner had a field day this morning on 5AA about it..
  12. You make. ??? Profit.
  13. Sit low, roll around, pimp daily.
  14. Go to S&J for all your rex needs. They have the runs on the board.
  15. Sure. Feel like re-painting the GTR lip for me? Already scraped it twice. People must think im drunk, swerving over the road, to get over a small dip in the road!
  16. Robert Pattinson is like a younger version of 'Mc Dreamy'...
  17. What movie?
  18. Hmm..check your AFM and TPS, could be your issue. but srsly, that sucks major donkeys.
  19. So..i picked up a new little toy on Friday night. so much love.
  20. Sinergy. Yeah, like Krish said, they put the prices up, but most other places do, gotta make a profit somehow. But definatly Iron Chef. Havn't heard anything remotely bad about him, or his importing process.
  21. Fkn LOVE Ferry Corsten. Been cranking his stuff all week to get psyched for it. can't wait for it.
  22. spotted ruf-033 on south road, at around 1.20pm. was undercover in the work van. silver stagea, 'rbb 250' in castle plaza shops, at around 2pm, female driver..didnt see my wave.
  23. Fkn LOL! Also, whats with the skyline's these days? They are all over the hoon stories! First it was a silver skyline on Rundle, now its a white skyline, with a boost controller. On Monday, my mum was reading the paper, and pointed the story out to me, asking me wether i would have a boost controller in the car im probably going to buy. My reply was "yes, why's that?", to which i got the most blunt, shocked, and 'oh my gosh' look on her face. I didn't tell her that it's got a pod filter, that would send her bonkers..
  24. bayside blue 34 with plates 'RRR-388' down the bay at 9.50am.
