Nightcrawler

Hi guys, I have recently purchased a 0.8cuft fibreglass enclosure and JL Audio 10w1v2 10" sub to fit in the boot of my V35. I am trying to choose an amp to run it - for various reasons the choices have come down to : MB Quart DSC450 Pioneer GM-6400F Kicker ZX200.2 ZX Now I only actually need to run the sub off this, so in some ways a 4 channel amp is excessive. Can any of you devoted audiophiles out there tell me which amp is better suited to my sub/box combo. If it matters I listen mostly to dance music, and am interested in quality as well as all out noise.

I have stock triple gauges sitting here if you want buy them for $50 - however I don't have the shroud that goes over the top/mounts them though - should be pretty easy/cheap to get one from a wrecker. I have sold my R34 so have no need for your display setup.

It is going to be killer Matt. If you need any help feel free to ask.

I will have all the SAU merchandise (including stickers) for sale at the track day on Monday

David's brand new VSpec Nur engine full of N1 and Tomei bits went in last week - should be running soon! Waiting on a few more parts ex-Japan then it will be alive.

Yeah Dave and I practically live there. If I could have gotten to Vili's tomorrow night to give them to you I would have picked them up for you. I live less than 2km from JIS, so pop in to see Koji and Paul frequently So many toys, so little money - there are always things there I want.

I ran my absolutely bog stock V35 at the high performance version of this last year, and despite some brake fade, had no issues whatsoever. You have more than enough opportunity to do cool-down laps and have breaks, so your car doesn't get a super hard workout. Highly recommended for ANY vehicle in any ANY state of modification. That said, my V35 will probably not see a track again - she is a luxury cruiser - not a race car

In future, instead of creating a new post, ALWAYS use the search function. Put "paint" into the search box at the bottom of the SA forum will yield you many results. Thread to be deleted.

yeah mate I have some time tomorrow arvo if you need a chauffeur - I prolly owe u a favour or 2 anyway. Can be at your place around 12pm if u like?

I have been reading some of the Landover Baptist stuff Carl .... freaking hilarious .... some of the appalled reactions to what is clearly a joke site are off the dial hilarious. Love this one in particular: http://www.landoverbaptist.net/showthread.php?t=27676

hey Aaron I have a pair of 20mm and a pair of 25mm hubcentric bolt-on spacers for sale .... was going to PM you.

Yeah no problems Tim .... so Abe paid me for his - did I give anyone else an SAU:SA show series shirt today? Well a great day was had by all and super stoked we took out the "Best Club Display" ..... we definitely had the toughest car collection there!

Yeah Weezy, I will see all the Northerners/Westerners at BP Croydon 7am - leaving 7:10am SHARP. Car is all pretty and packed now, so off to bed ready for the stupidly early one tomorrow.

I would be extremely surprised if Adelaide Radial Tyre at Gilles Plains couldn't roll your guards tomorrow .... $40 a corner.

Phew - washing, chamoising, scratch repairing/cutting, polishing, waxing then trim detailing your car is absolutely exhausting in this (even mild) heat. Going to wait until it is a bit cooler to do the inside cleaning/vacuuming then she is ready for a final exterior wet coat Saturday 6am. Mind you, the 35 is now looking a million bucks

I reckon the hoodies are WAY too busy - do you really want crap written ALL OVER your hoodie like that? Sorry, but it looks a lot like the ricer stickers down the door of a "Mugen" Honda lol And with those cars down the front, what does it look like when it is unzipped - not great I would suggest. And I am willing to bet the graphics are screen printed/bake-ons, so wouldn't last terribly long - the roughly half that amount of graphics we are having on the SAU:SA club shirts costs $45 per shirt JUST for the embroidery believe it or not - but it will still be there long after the NS jumpers are dead and buried. But hey, I am sure Kellie is open to suggestions for the general SAU hoodies if you guys are willing to fork out $100+ - looks like the billion or so sponsors will be footing most of the cost of the NS hoodies, so good luck to them.

Any Northern(ish) guys, how about we meet at BP Croydon (South Road) at 7am? Takers?

+1 for QFM pads .... but even if it just for a street car I would go for HPX's - had some on my R34 and loved them. Changing the pads yourself is a piece of piss - only very basic mechanical skills/tools needed. In fact you could figure it out yourself .... but easier if you get someone to show you how to do one.

haha for friendly home style tourneys/cash games I fall into that category Krishy Different story when playing at the Casino for big money, but for social games as long the blinds/initial raises aren't too high I will pretty much play any 2 cards .... I don't want to sit around for ages waiting for the perfect cards. It is amazing how often you hit straights, trips etc with junk cards - really pisses people off with decent hole cards that can't make a decent hand

A stock car will go straight through. The registration refund amount would nearly be zero, as the actual registration cost is nothing relative to the CTP, stamp duty and other costs .... not worth the effort of getting a refund.

LOL watched MXC before on Fox 8 - haven't laughed so hard in ages. The cheesy American voice-overs are absolutely classic. If you haven't seen it before do yourself a favour and watch/record it on Fox, or acquire it from other source. Definitely worth it!

Prices are a bit all over the place at the moment. I picked up my 48k Black 2003 auto premium for $31,500 6 months ago from a dealer, but black is always much more expensive due to the rarity. Pearl white also seems fairly uncommon. I agree, start at $30k if you are not needing to sell in a hurry, and see how you go. Geography also plays a major factor - the prices in Sydney are at least $5k less than Perth or even Adelaide. I would suggest in reality you will get around the $24k-$26k mark. I was upset to see a silver 350GT coupe on Prestige the other day for $17,600 landed and fully complied. Admittedly it was silver, and a non-premium auto, but still that is insanely cheap for such an awesome car. I agree, if you want to sell do it ASAP before the V36s come down in price and start flooding in, then our V35s will be worth nothing

Nope, none of it works in Australia. You can get a full aftermarket setup that utilises a touch screen overlay over the pop up screen and puts in a separate TV tuner, and separate GPS. I believe it costs $3k-$4k fully installed. The main guy who does this is Chris Rogers, and he is located in Brisbane. He also does factory cruise control systems for around $1k plus install cost. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ch...gers-m2209.html There are installers in every state that can now convert your Japanese menus to English, see this thread: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/So...re-t194126.html

Yep Christian posted a message this arvo and the migration hasn't actually happened yet .... outage was just preliminary backup works or something to that effect.

+1 for Simon at MOB .... my rad hoses for the R34 were $80.
