  1. hey, they aren't that unusual...I've got one
  2. excellent result....but now you've got no more excuses for being captain slow....
  3. lol it was for sale since Feb, you had a chance to grab it! and in the end, it went to someone in the community that will love her like we did
  4. well...firstly the rules change state to state, I guess you are asking about QLD. In my experience almost every skyline has mods, and almost none have engineer's certs. And if something is clearly an upgrade, an engineer is just going to tick it off as OK. The only thing to make it more complex would be any front/rear bias changes or if you should run a larger master cylinder.
  5. Yeah there are plenty of ways to f**k up a thread repair....I'd be taking Scotty's advice and getting a mobile thread guy in. They might cost you a hundred bucks but if you don't deal with this all the time you're likely to stuff it further, and end up with a bunch of expensive tools you'll never leave again. And yes they are M8 fine which you wont find in most tap kits
  6. EN100 in the GTR manual. There is definitely no spacer between the crank and the flywheel on a manual
  7. got a pic of the part you mean? the flywheel bolts do not have washers from the factory, but they do have a small flange.
  8. Off to a new home, enjoy Cameron!
  9. its a little stud which is just there for that purpose
  10. Plausible, not all cars sell at auction. I had a broker buy my Cima privately. You can still order the de-reg papers if you want to check the KLM, and if you post the VIN I suspect someone would be able to check if it did go through an auction
  11. yeah he should have the vids up by now, it was pretty busy. if those tyres can't grip then nothing ever can....they were farking soft (like the driver)
  12. no problems, and yeah it was a good weekend. but what happened to "f**k you're boring Handley, next time I'm brining Pete to drink beer and talk shit all night" Its great to have nothing to fix on a Skyline all weekend, and well done for good times and taking out the class.
  13. I enjoy irony.....this is his expensive new cheater tyre on the way down to the dummy grid yesterday....
  14. jesus mate, you are doing reliability testing....are you trying to make sure it spends even less time on the track than it has lately?
  15. Hill climbs are awesome....I'm up giving Neil a hand at the state champs at Grafton this weekend...Mick is meant to be heading up here too. There is one at Buladelah and it is f**king awesome....imagine closing a 3 lane road and letting people drive up it at full speed. A few others around like Bathurst, Huntley in Wollongong etc
  16. I use a 170CCA Odyssey battery in the race car and I've never had a problem. Remember turbo cars have lower compression so the starter needs less effort to turn them over.
  17. lol it was on sale from 2012 to 2015 and I get the first question the day after it sold!? Not sure where it was made, I assume china....I bought it through Just Jap

  19. oh yeah, a Neil got a clean new ashtray
  20. Oh sorry to hear that....your Nissan-ness is continuing to decrease If she doesn't mind the look, Cubes are an excellent buy. More practical and 20% cheaper than the equivalent Micra
  21. well a smoke test is the best way to get to find a vacuum leak, but it requires specialist equipment. Easiest thing to do is to give it to someone who does this all the time unless you are familiar, there are billions of pipes and they won't be standard on your setup As far as finding it yourself, I'd start with the main intercooler pipes in the engine bay and under the front bar, they are by far the most likely. They check the BOV return lines wherever they plumb back in. Then the boost controller lines and their attachment to the wastegate. Then however your AAC is linked up, that should cover most of the vacuum lines.
