  1. No need to be sorry mate!! I'll keep an eye out in case it comes up for sale again.
  2. Where about do you work mate?
  3. Already gone Had no money in time!!
  4. Do you have any more R31's for wrecking? I need a front right swaybar mount thingo
  5. PM Sent about the oil cooler mate Cheers.
  6. The guy who runs the Enzed in Fyshwick is a bit of a cock, and overpriced even for speedflow. If I were you I would order the speedflow fittings from eBay and the braided hose etc then make your own. If you want a shop in Canberra though, I have bought a couple of fittings from Pirtek in Fyshwick, prices were reasonable and service is good. I also agree with DIY Mik above, GTR's will be more difficult to get the fittings for, I have a stock set of R32 GTR lines here and they are a bit odd.
  7. Spotted Shell at the lights on Hindmarsh next to the hospital? Today around 5.30?
  8. This.. But I might still make it.
  9. Just make sure you have a new spigot bush and release bearing.. Can't remember the proper name but I call it a release bearing. How much is the Nismo? The clutch I mentioned would be able to be made to hold your power no worries, I know someone running a similar clutch with a higher clamp load with 315kw / 700nm (perhaps he will post up in here) .. If you needed to save some cash, that could be a good way to go.
  10. I'll probably come out mate.
  11. I had mine 'made' by K B Clutch Engineering in Sydney, the clutch is good quality and well made, though I ordered a 5 puck, he ran out of 5's and sent me a 6 without telling me, and thought that was on ok thing to do. Apart from that, it's a good service. For around the $400 mark you will get an exedy 4-5-6 puck sprung brass button centre with ceramic pads and then he will make you a custom pressure plate depending on your power/torque levels. Mine is rated at 1300kg clamp pressure / 240kw / 440nm / 6400rpm and cost $400. Seems like the way to go, you would probably get a similar clutch with a higher clamp load. I just finished putting mine in this afternoon and it feels almost like a normal stock clutch with a bit shorter travel, it's very easy. How is your tailshaft? Good time to change the uni's.
  12. How big is the hole? If it's only small I can weld it at my place mate
  13. Very impressive!! I had to take anti-biotics for a wound on my arm earlier in the year, this was the first time I had ever taken anti-biotics, it completely ruined my immune system and I caught a flu that my house mates had. They had another flu recently, and I did not catch it. Not a fan of anti-biotics (same for flu tablets etc) unless really need, like a bad wound. There are some great tips in here, I agree with them. Zinc is very important when you have a cold/flu, I would take it as soon as you feel it coming on, I take it every few days regardless. And lots of vitamin C! I will take 3 grams per day if I have a flu. Glad to see some other people aren't keen on pharmaceutical drugs too. Stay healthy
  14. I'll take one mate, do any have power steering pumps on? Will text you tomorrow. Cheers, Anthony.

    I think all your cars will look like they have just been painted compared to my beat up old 31!
  16. Sell your body in Fyshwick? Mushroom picking? Rob a servo? Plenty of options
  17. Hey guys, Are people meeting up tomorrow night? Cheers, Anthony.

    Plenty of time!! She'll be there.
  19. Agree, sorry should have mentioned that. I have happily bought 3 year old tyres from them before, as a side note, Bridgestone warrant their tyres for 6 years after manufacture date provided they have been stored correctly (as one would assume any good shop would store them). Perhaps the first 100km will be a little more rough than a fresh tyre, but after that they are great.
  20. I agree, their tyres are cheap, service is bad though acceptable for the tyre price, they can balance a wheel ok and seal a bead but I would do as you said and take the wheels in only, I wouldn't let them go near my cars.
