  1. Sorry mate, currently out of stock as I convert to chromoly tubing. BTW don't be fooled by the username. Cheers Duncan
  2. Nelly goes into hospital the Tusday after so she is not sure about coming. Also worried about consuming too much alcohol before an op, knowing the SAU rep. I could be a day tripper at this stage.
  3. No it won't fit unless you have a flange adaptor, the GTR uses smaller flanges. Is it front or rear?
  4. Bah to you Roy. You are just jealous. Just for that, no-one can borrow anything. You know who to blame Marcus..... I like Vusters ride too.
  5. My thoughts, that "sensor" looks a lot like a stylized control motor on the hicas unit, and the hicas has a couple of pot style position sensors on it. Maybe they consider the rear steering angle to be the yaw rate when related to speed.
  6. 1) XM Facon ute when I was a jackaroo 2) 76 corolla sedan with sunroof (that's important!!) and part stake in a 78 Twin Cam Corona Rally car as well as a season in a Formula Ford on lease 3) 11/87 XF Falcon (they were supposed to finish 6/87 and this one had EA bits) 4) 95 V6 TX5 Telstar and dabbling with an RX3 sports sedan 5) 94 auto GTS25t and stake in a Datsun 1600 rally car 6) 94 manual GTS25t (now tt) 7) 91 Soarer GTltd V8 8) 95 R33 GTR
  7. Speaking of twisty bits, the GTR33 loves em, but not the SS commodore trying to keep up through a roundabout. He finished looking the wrong way.
  8. Just didn't sound like our normal, friendly, help anyone SK Did you have a race meeting at PI on the weekend? How did that go?
  9. CEF11E, the easiest way with resistors is to use a mltimeter to measure instead of going of the colour codes.
  10. Northwest tyres, Newlands road reservior, ~$150 each max in 255 40 17, recommend Dunlop 9000SP over any other standard type road tyre. Just rock up.
  11. That doesn't seem a normal SK post above.......you off your game mate or is SOSK playing with your 'puter?
  12. I gave the electrical piping a look and found it softens and deforms at 98 deg C, which is no good for the sustained high temps in the racecar. Good concept but just no longevity.
  13. You just need a machine for every occasion. I currently have 5, but may have to let one go soon.
  14. If you guarantee that they will work (I'll do the cleaning and flow testing) and include postage I'll take 6.

  16. Fire a Javelin missile at it...but it might not be sturdy enough to detonate the warhead.
  17. Lucky it didn't dig in and roll mate. Still chasing some places and yet to pm the guy with the taillights.
  18. Great to see the team going so well. Was nice to drop in and say hi. Great time Troy, and I trust the car made it through the day unscathed. Is this a new watershed? 58Y finished a track day? Gareth, condolences on the wall incident, but consider the fun of rebuilding So what were the critical lap times? Did Benno stave off the assault from that nice white GTR32?
  19. Pure mahogany!!!
  20. An automotive engineering authority that does compliance engineering should have the emissions test equipment.
  21. Then I'd suggest take it to the strip or use a proper data logger as the stopwatch can be started late. Perhaps you have some drag timeslips as I can then interpolate 1-100 times from that, include the Dynosheet that demonstrates you have around 260rwkw as well. I suspect from your comment above the engine is pretty basic now. Maybe at the next race engineering seminar later this month I'll let Claude Rouelle (see the Motec website for info) know that someone has found a better way to launch a skyline (or any car) that proves us all in the engineering world wrong. Can I give him your number?
  22. Yeah Russ, how much?
  23. Mate, I have friends flying in in the morning who are here until Weds so have the ass hanging out. Be there for a while Sunday though.
  24. Archie you can set the resolution quite well so it should be fine. Logitech MOMO racing is my choice though. 270 wheel much like an actual race car. PC only as there are no console stuff in my house.
  25. 20 years of swinging spanners and mechanical engineering tells me you do have a problem, now to find it. Follow Duncans advice.
