Nah mate, as above, not a part-out, only the bits listed...

Also for sale: Permatex Ultra-Black sealant, un-opened, un-used. Had my sump off on the weekend, got 2 tubes to be safe, didn't use this one, $15

Got some here mate: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/366769-shed-clean-out-dirt-cheap-bits-inside/ But they're NOT perfect... You'll probably need new ones to get them in good condition.

Fusion Amplifier sold! Everything else still up for grabs...

If you're filling the catch can, not a good sign. Run a compression test, work from there...

Yeah, not a back-yard job with a shifter, needs decent tools and a press, and good mechanical knowledge. If your going to do it you may as well rebuild the box properly rather than one bearing...

About to say the same thing. The battery *shouldn't* need a vent unless it's a maintenance type one.

Difficult to see in the picture, i'd say it connects to one of the right-angled barbs that are included?

Hi all, Chasing a direct-fit turbo suit RB25DET, prefer a stock item but any will do, must: -Not be for an RB20 -Have an internal waste-gate -Be direct fit (no v-band clamps, pipe reducers/adapters etc, oil and water lines can be modified) -Be less than $500 as I can my current one rebuilt for that If you have a dodgey/smokey turbo, I might still be interested depending on the fault and price, as I can use it for a high-flow or re-build and make the swap easier, but need to know what's wrong with it. PM me or post here Cheers, Josh

Recepits/documentation?

I think your biggest issue would be clearance from the head to the firewall?

+1 I deal with the police regularly through work, and most of them are good people, and in my experience the hoon laws in my area are only exercised under the correct circumstances (ie 180 in a 100 zone, 135 in an 80 zone, driving whilst disqualified), yet that's not to say there isn't bad apples in the bunch... A Skyline driver saying "all cops are c***s" is no different to an officer saying "all Skyline drivers are c***s". My argument is that the laws aren't fair in the guilty-until-proven-guilty-and-further-punished manner.

THIS I can understand, as it is actually removing dangerous drivers/cars from the road, hoon laws being used correctly=

begin rant/ This scenario^ How is it rational and fair that ANYONE can have their car impounded with the slightest shred of evidence? If someone saw you stab a guy, they were the only witness, the knife was never found, the body was never found, there was no other evidence other than you not having an allaby (don't know the correct spelling) in your favor, would it incur $4k worth of damage on your behalf and have you arrested on the spot and jailed for a month, or get thrown the f**k out before it got past the police-station receptionist? Who came up with this utter bulls**t? What possible LOGICAL reason is there for laws such as this to be bought in? -If I have to have my luggage checked at an airport, that's cool with me and isn't that inconvenient for my personal safety and the hundreds of other people on that flight -If I get searched at a train station at 3am for weapons in a known violent crime area, I'd be ok with that. -If some drop-kick is yelling "f*** off you f****** c**** and go eat donuts i f****** hate all you c**** dick sucking f*****" at a divvy van, he probably deserves to be a few dollars down, he was clearly in the wrong -If my car got impounded for a month, cost me thousands of dollars, destroyed my employment as my job/s rely on a licence and took away my favorite pride and joy, project and primary asset, because an un-named individual ALLEGED I spun my wheels, I'd be fair pissed, especially since there isn't any way to win once the finger has been pointed, you are guilty until proven guilty, fined and punished accordingly. There is no need for evidence other than your word against someone else, and being a 21 year old with a Skyline, what chance would I honestly stand? No, this isn't your typical whine by someone burnt by these laws, i've never had a speeding fine or parking ticket, licence is fully in-tact, yet I do feel for anyone who has been hard done by in certain circumstances. Not once in my 5 years of driving have I felt personally threatened by ANY action that would be considered hooning. The only time i've had my personal safety put at risk on the road was at my own hand in the middle of no-where with no-one around, and incidents such as: -Having idiots over-take towards me on double white lines (ie head on collision), yet they weren't doing over 135 or burning tyres -Others failing to indicate, thus almost colliding with them -Multiple near-misses with the elderly, including the above, them driving on the wrong side of the road, not using traffic lights and round-abouts correctly etc. /end rant, for now

Anyone bothered to tally the total cost of a 1 month impoundment for the average joe? ie. You could factor in (due to the car not being driven): -Loan repayment costs -Insurance costs -Time-based service items (brake fluid change etc.) -Loss of income (ie if the driver does deliveries or something) And the obvious of: -Towing -Storage -Fines -Loss of income due to loss of licence -Court fees etc. etc. How would this total compare to other crimes and the cost invoked via conviction when proven guilty? Oh wait my bad you don't HAVE to be proven guilty to be convicted for hooning, silly me. Has ANYONE at the top sat down and looked at the monster they've created to "stop" "hoons" while other much more intentional crimes continue with lenient penalties?

The horrible death-rattle from ~2500rpm-~3500rpm is NORMAL, it's an unfortunate NA trait, and has been deeply discussed multiple times: 1 2 3 4 5 6 It's rumored that a good quality after market exhaust can help reduce or eliminate the noise.

How did you "notice" it's worn?

And... -That turbo will make as much power as the manufacturer says it can, provided they're not full of s**t or a el-cheapo brand and if it's set up properly on the right engine
