  1. Was having a read in the Vic EPA thread... Are the JASMA exhaust (Legalis/Kaki/Blitz etc etc) all rated under 89db @ say, 4-5krpm? Seems like with the RB's EPA is testing the noise @ a certain RPM and people are failing left and right....so being under 89db at idle doesn't help... Not interested in getting defected again...so yeah, just curious...
  2. Get a samsung 7" Galaxy tab. Stick to existing 7" display with double sided tape. done. $450... Or spend 1-2K on an aftermarket double DIN GPS/Media player... your choice. Not sure why people are so caught up with using the stock display for GPS... I mean, do you really want to use this to control the GPS? https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=1468
  3. LOL...sounds like you guys had fun...
  4. Dunno, Cihan was pretty good price wise... yes I know I know he's Melb only...
  5. I'm getting a new set of rear custom springs from Silkroads so I'm selling the original that came with my Silkroads RM/A8 Coilovers... about 9 months old, still in excellent condition once you wipe off the grime... they're 245mm long with 10kg spring rate... $100 + postage... And yes your car will be low....not for the faint hearted Might sell the whole set if you're willing to pay $950...
  6. some interesting M35 and C34 pics... http://wagonlifestyle.blogspot.com.au/search?q=stagea
  7. wow...you must have one light foot
  8. Hey mate - where abouts are you in Melb? I see a Blue M35 in Oakleigh and East Bentleigh often...
  9. Mine is exactly the same...random...
  10. is there a front and rear set of these? cos I can occasionally hear clunking from the rear...
  11. LOL, seriously - wtf is this? http://usa.auto-style.jp/?pkey=item_info&i_code=QES241222C0001&car_url=m35stagia room miller? arousal collection?
  12. So as in 4th from the bottom? which means Audi > VW yeah? Not sure what your point is? LOL... Just read the JD powers survey....Audi A4 seems to trump Passat and Golf GTI in overall reliability?
  13. I know they're all owned by the same company and use the same engine blah blah blah... But I'm pretty damn sure the build quality on an Audi is better then a VW, or heaven forbids, your Skoda
  14. I'm sure all the Audi owners out there will agree with you...
  15. Interesting...got a pic? concur...bit OTT riceness...
  16. I think that's just a stocker with a lip kit...
  17. Looks nice. I like the AVS T7s....
  18. There's more then one nismo kit for our cars? I thought this one was it?
  19. http://www.importmonster.com.au/view?url=http://page9.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/k144659452&thumb=http://f5.auctions.c.yimg.jp/img229.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/users/2/1/3/4/partsbankjp-thumb-1328081259196409.jpg&title=M35 Nismo front bar anyone? Dammit I still haven't picked mine up yet...
  20. LOL, $20 shipping? a bit rich considering the workshop was about 1.5km away from the Bursons that I ordered it from. I was gonna pick it up myself but the Mechanic insisted that Bursons had it delivered (not by a courier/post - just an employee driving over). The way I see it they just want to milk every penny from us folks...
  21. the $1600 was including other crap...but I still felt he ripped me off. Seriously, a trustworthy mechanic is rarer then hen's teeth. Example - I went to this same mechanic to get a RWC done in order to reg my car in VIC. He charged me $110 for the RWC in Jan 2011. last week I went there to get another RWC. on the invoice he priced the RWC @ $150??? WTF? I ordered the superpro bushes via Bursons and Bursons was gonna charge me $187. The mechanic said just have them delivered to his place so he can install them ASAP. I thought, alright, why not. On the bill his charged me $207 for the bushes. I can go on forever, but f**k me, they're just giving themselves a bad rep as dodgy kunts
  22. I just had both of mine done, along with all the boots, for $175 each plus labour... I think I paid too much, much didbn't have time to dick around for prices. The whole bill came to $16xx...pissed me off to no end...
  23. hmm tempted... When I checked with Streeter last time this is the response I got: OX Motor Sports for M35 Stagea Rear Under Bar Set - 10,440yen. Rear Member Support Pipe Set - 12,490yen. Rear Member Support Pipe Ver. N Set - 13,170yen. Front Under Pipe Set - 10,440yen. Shipping cost is 840yen. will take about 1week so with the exchange rate these days It'll be under $800 delivered...for 4 bars.. hmm...need suspension though...
  24. MV Auto is in SA... I had my shift kit done at RVO Auto in Dandenong....they should be able to help you out if you can't find anyone else... Oops just read the whole thread and saw that you already went to RVO. I didn't have any issues with RVO. They changed my valve body over too. However I brought my own Matic J along as I didn't know wtf they were goig to put int. Aaron (who used to have an ARX) also had his trans done at RVO and insisted on Nuon ATF. Seems like they've done a few M35 by now...so you'd think they'd know NOT to use Dex III stuff...you'd hope.
