  1. +1 32gtr and 32 gts4 are the same front and rear
  2. yeah that was my suggestion, bunnings will have some sizes of sticky backed foam but clark rubber will have a better range. If you can't get the right size buy larger and cut down with the dremel
  3. Give me a bell Craig, you can cruise in C34 RB30 style
  4. In Can't wait to learn about how to change the torsion bars on the ute.
  5. I'd still suspect air lock first. Try parking with the rear down hill, nose in the air, bleeder closed, heater on full, and a half coke bottle full of water in the radiator cap. Ultimately, 110 oil and 100 water is not too hot, so you could always just live with it unless it gets worse
  6. hey if anyone needed to know about tyres, it was Dave. As they say....."know thy enemy"....
  7. yeah, horrible boost drop off there...try and get that fixed before being too concerned. I'd start by running the car again with no exhaust, and see what the result is. Also, have a look at the intake under the bonnet when it is at full boost for anything sucking shut, stock rubber parts in particular
  8. Jarrad, the excellent deals on federal tyres from these guys are still on over here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/231342-special-deals-on-federal-tyres
  9. A hge thanks to Mick and the team at NTW for putting on an excellent night (not to mention beer and food). It was a great turn out as well, the place was pretty much full with over 35 people along to check out what was happening. I though it was a good mix of information on how tyrs work, how to maintain them, and how to bag out commodore drivers. The highlight for me was learning from Mick that "when the steel belts are sparking, it's probably time to change tyre". That and that Neil adn Charles both remember whitewall, bias-ply tyres. The next night is on 19 October at Wholesale suspension in Penrith, I'm sure a thread will be up soon
  10. hahah too late...but I was going to say.... pop the fuel filler. if your fuel breather is blocked (mine has been for years), pressure in the tank will pump plenty of fuel out whatever hose you pull off first.
  11. It wasn't for the 35 odd people that came along tonight NTW are OK for us to share the presentaton with NSW members that couldn't make it, I'll ask if they have branches in other states for the other clubs. Next one is in about 4 weeks at Wholesale suspension in Penrith

  13. this thread delivers.
  14. no that doesn't matter really....gearbox and clutch have to match (either push or pull) but either will bolt to the motor. 32 gtr is push 33 gtr is pull
  15. RS4S is 2wd, right? I am pretty sure it will bolt straight in. If not, the only mod would be to the tailshaft yoke. I run a 32 gtr box in my rs4
  16. Interstate club members are welcome to come by too....
  17. hahah you said blow! anyone want a z24 bottom end? I've got one freeing up in the next few weeks.
  18. Other than the obvious stuff you will notice, be careful with the end of the crankshaft. The manual spigot bush is different to the auto whatever itis.
  19. lol true story. The amazing thing was how far off the road it happened. Once again proving that stopped cars off the road are magnets to other cars. Seriously though....the cars is what it is. If it aligns up correctly, drives well and has no badly repaired damage/rust etc then it is all good. Pretty much every car that has run targa has left the road, some big, some small, some through a whole potato field and 2 fences (lucky the potatos did not get out really). Mine has had 3 reasonable offs and drives beautifully, Greg's car was rolled 3 times at surfer's paradise and you can't see a single scratch on the roof anymore, plenty of evos have been pulled out of the top of trees where they were stuck like xmas decorations etc etc
  20. Exactly....park next to all the skylines, walk over to the group of people and say "Hi everyone, I'm Albert". You will then get a group hug as your initiation.
  21. Cams schedule B section 15 says" if fitted with any crankcase breather discharging to the atmosphere, each breather be vented into a catch tank of minimum capacity of two litres for engines up to 2000cc or three litres for over 2000cc. Regulations for competitions on unsealed surfaces may waive this requirement; That is a fair guide to start with. I'm not sure why it is based on engine capacity not oil capacity but meh!
  22. lol that is the same way I judge oil changes on the navara....the only car I've had in the last 5 years that *hasn't* needed a bottom end rebuild....
  23. Not for me. It is SA, WA, Tas or NT's turn to run the national supersprint....this NSW>Vic>Qld bullshit is not a national championship. To me it looks like the usual overpriced $$$ per minute supersprint from our friends at ARDC. Not to mention that "national" rules still don't exist for this "national" championship. 3 years, 3 sets of rules, and the NSW ones are very anti-turbo.
  24. I have one of these keys for sale, bought it from Bangahh a few months back but couldn't get it to work on the cube (looked the same...bad guess)! still uncut, and comes with a brand new battery
