  1. Great way to start the year mate, good luck.
  2. Sounds great, I'll be there Thanks Terry for organising this.
  3. +1 have a great year everyone....I'm happy to leave 2012 behind
  4. meh, I reckon it will be fine. slow yes, but no slower than the average ute or 1t truck dragging stuff around. And the chasis is up to it. I have no idea of the legality or otherwise so you should check that out....in NSW the law used to be the tow car had to weigh more than the load being towed (plain dumb), but now it says you can tow up to the manufacturer's recommendation. And since in the case of imports the RAWS is considered the manufacturer that could be tricky. you haven't seen a slow tow until you've tried to pull a GTR up Mt Buller with a 2.4l carby navara
  5. Thread locked, it's value to the community is unclear.
  6. link doesn't work? But....if I remember correctly it mentions Nick's Green Stagea....which goes to show just how many internet fads come and go over the years
  7. honestly mate, the best thing you can do for crunchy gears is shift a bit slower. Stop for a fraction in the centre of the gate before selecting the gear and it will pop straight in no crunch changing to another oil (I used redline for years) can reduce the symptom but increases the issue over time, and the only real fix is a gearbox reco at $1k-$2k.
  8. interesting deals being offered from Nissan on the leaf at the moment. You can buy at $55k with 0% finance. Or $47k cash. Goes to show the value that they put on 0% finance vs their usual rates over 3 years. And FWIW banks don't come anywhere near dealer rates unless you have some existing/larger relationship already with the bank. BTW, great thread. There has been a real increase in lowballers with the ease of sitting down with websites and a mobile for a few hours a day. Maybe 1 person in a hundred was desperate enough to sell for that asking price....but even so it was worth the buyer's time making all those calls.
  9. that's not a waste of time....it's just a quick answer for the next person that has this problem and searches
  10. Hi guys, this was discussed and agreed late last year, I will get it sorted in the next week or two. We will stick with a subsection but I'll post up details of how to subscribe to whole sections which may help. So please start collecting threads to be moved into the Motorsport Builds section. Also, I'm happy to hear any other ideas to get this place jumping again. Hopefully we can breathe some life into this section for the new year
  11. me too. It doesn't seem to be about Stageas so it is locked. If you want to chat there are a variety of whore threads, or a whole wasteland
  12. yeah if that is complete (ie including console etc) it is a reasonable price. Could probably be done cheaper if you want to stuff around collecting all the bits seperately, but that could take a while
  13. Stu was one of the few survivors of a plane crash in Burma yesterday... I don't know of anyone who has spoken to him directly but the news report says both he and his girlfriend Anna are OK. http://www.abc.net.a...e-crash/4443714 Hopefully they are both well and going to be heading home safely soon.
  14. It's a bit harsh to assume....maybe that car was built before the r35 was released, and it might run a twin turbo 3.5l putting out over 400kw....
  15. the d2 group buy is the perfect upgrade....complete, cheap and you will never need to upgrade again
  16. great idea to get the tips from John Boston, he knows the car backwards as well.
  17. I would certainly start with a commecial engine flush product. But having said that, I have cleaned old motors out with diesel (fuel) before. Just not to any car I liked.
  18. I wouldn't worry too much, the DBA catalogue is pretty unclear on the 94 gtr rotors so they just made a simple mistake.
  19. I have been on the lookout for one of those, it was a factory option. I've previously seen threads claiming the wiring is already in the car ready to plug in, maybe see if you can search back and find them.
  20. that would be much less funny if it wasn't so damn true....the club has been around for 10 years now! I seem to remember a lot of burgandy series 1 r33s getting around.
  21. we can particularly if you remove your front driveshaft. mine is out atm from a dyno day the other day....fun for skids
  22. I did....thread approved
  23. BTW I have mad mspaint skills. (I faked that pic if you didn't guess)
  24. issues with seals? only if you drift in the wrong neighbourhood
