  1. Spotted a few tidy lookin lines at bridge road maccas just now.
  2. Rather misleading, most of the metro radios will be digitally encrypted, might be lucky to pick up a bit of chatter on open channels but nothing mainstream. You can have a bit of fun with club security in town on a pos $40 uhf radio as most of them are too cheap to go buy a licensed frequency
  3. You'd be pressed to find someone semi-decent for $100 an hour imo, for instance it's $185 to have me out for an hour. +1 on the PSU, possible to get your hands on one to try? MSY will do a thermaltake for $40 or so, if it's high end gaming gear you'd want something a bit more reliable than that though.
  4. +1 And related, poor bloke: http://nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?s...;st=0&fcat=
  5. 33 coilpacks are notorious for going to shit, dumped a set of iridium plugs and supersparks in mine and misfire gone.
  6. Rory Thompson - $110 per hour, roughly 4hrs for 1 seat. Willshire Motor Trimmers - move seat back max of 50mm $385 minimum, no quote on height without seeing the seat.
  7. Yeah theres not much on the forums when it comes to tall driver seat mods, figured the only way to find out will be to go visit some fabricators. I was looking at a 33 GTR on the weekend and tbh the seats aren't really that much lower at all, however they are nicer to sit in. Same problem with knees knocking the wheel and leg pressed hard in to the window controls. I was in Autobarn at Gilles Plains on the weekend and it was mentioned they had "a guy" that makes up custom rails for their after market seats and certifies them for $4-500, rather not go through a man in the middle if it can be avoided. Next problem will be once the seat is moved back the wheel will probably be too far away Does the government maintain a list of workshops that are allowed to do ADR work maybe? EDIT: Just found this site, http://www.rtsengineering.com.au/sle.html will have to give them a call or try and head down at some point.
  8. Hi All, Looking for places in Adelaide that can make up a new set of seat rails for a 33gtst, wanting to fit GTR seats, dump the driver seat as low as possible and move it back an extra 100mm or so, work will need to be certified to ADR. Any recommendations welcomed, just looking for someone to provide a cost estimate for the moment Cheers
  9. You can pick up some mdf pretty cheap from bunnings and make yourself a new parcel shelf, will also give a bit more wood for the screws to bite in to. Maybe pickup some heat shrink from jaycar to put over the terminals, electrical tape will go soft and gooey in the heat. Depending on how much clearance you have between the terminals and the body, directly soldering the wires to the speaker terminals could possibly save enough space to prevent them from hitting the body at all.
  10. As above, HICAS schematic or registers to talk over consult if anyone has such info. Thankyou muchly
  11. "personal imports" Does that mean: A business can buy more than 1 imported vehicle every 5 years An agent can trade as usual, but register the cars in their business name, then transfer to the customer? Or, it does not apply to RAWS at all?
  12. Hullo
  13. Places (in SA) charge a shit load to remove and machine discs, if you take them off yourself it's normally around 29-39 bucks a disc. Hit up gsl rally sports, iirc it was $120 for an axle's worth of qfm a1rm brake pads. Should be able to get the whole lot in for under $220ish.
  14. I think you're referring to short circuiting the battery, which can lead to wires melting their insulation and setting fire to nearby items, not earthing to the battery. And no, that is not your problem with melting grills. The head unit should be earthed to the chassis, the fact the earth "couldn't be found" shows that the installer isn't any good and has no skyline specific knowledge, perhaps take your head unit to somewhere reputable for installation. I would guess that 44c+, direct sunlight and trapped in a closed up car is pretty damn hot, although I've never seen the grills melt before. You should also watch out for coil/spider/surround glue melting, might think about screwing in your speakers properly too, how can that not be vibrating and annoy the shit out of you?
  15. Drop us a PM if you still need an extra pair of hands.
  16. Everything still on track for the 33 guys to receive the 5th tunnel mat? Never received confirmation that you received my $5.
  17. Have a set of a1rm on the front of my 33 gtst, definitely excellent value for money. After a hard session I'd hardly have any stopping power with OEM pads and would have to waste time letting them cool down, with the a1rm pads on I've not yet experienced fade and have plenty of bite where the oem's would have led me in to the nearest wall!
  18. Imagine the site will come back later once they've fixed their server up, but for the time being, here you go. Stagea_Manual_Conversion_Gu....pdf
  19. Spent last few hrs pullin turbz off a 2jz with a mate, wont ever complain about how difficult something is to get to on an rb again
  20. I got stuck rebuilding some servers.. until 10pm Hopefully next time.
  21. Good thing his mailbox doesn't work and just generates NDR's. He will know better for next time I guess
  22. I find the Fusion Brain to be a bit more customizable than the usual dse/jarcay interface kits, having inputs for sensors etc also makes it a lot more functional, its ability to easily be controlled from custom software is also a bonus. Sounds like smart entry could have a couple of interesting points so I guess I'll poke around with the dmm and see what can be mapped out.
  23. Now theres some fitment.
  24. Perhaps you would also like to look to the top right of your screen to find the Private Messaging system.
  25. Shall also be playing on pc, along with working on patching my ... "disabled" copy of mw2 so it has multi again. Just found out about this, sounds awesome: http://www.moddb.com/mods/gta-united
