  1. Yep gotta thank Aaron for having a look at the issue...he reseated the BOV and tighted all the hoses but the farting noise remains...grrrrrrrrr Might need to visit you Scotty..,when you guys are done with Craig's car that is
  2. Does the rx come with blisteins as stock? Cos I can see blue springs and yellow shocks when I wipe away the grime. They any good?
  3. I should be getting the turbosmart thing from Aaron later this week...will let you know. I think I will also start hunting for a used one on IM or from Jesse Streeter. Hey what did you mean when u said the BOV smells like egg? Are you kidding?
  4. ???? what'd ya mean!? So with the current BOV's farting sound - is this surging the compressor?
  5. So just ask for gasket for a VQ engine? I was more worried about the labour. I'm not terribly mechanically capable - maybe I'll ask Scotty to fix it when I take my car in for the exhaust job
  6. Hmm I can only smell it when I get out of the car - I dont smell it with the air vents on. So I need to replace the gasket...eek how much will this set me back? Oil levels are fine - I changed the oil 2 weeks ago and it certainly wasn't low. A good 4-5 litre of old oil drained out. I replaced it with 5L of Mobil 1.
  7. yeah I guess so....ha!
  8. I noticed that after every drive I can smell burnt oil. I can't seem to find any leaks. When I had the car checked out a month ago by Stateroads they mentioned there was a slight leak/seepage "around the engine" and from the turbo. Is this why I'm getting the smell? What should I do...
  9. Goddamn Scotty you are sooo tempting me. $600 + tuning = 50kw gain!!? Then again I gotta get my zorst done 1st. Is there any point doing this on a Stag without a hi flowed turbo and emanage?
  10. Can you post up or PM me more pics of the rims? esp pics of gutter rash etc. Where in melb r u?
  11. How do these compare to the GReddy ones?
  12. Just bought one. Cheers!
  13. Lol and o thought stagea owners were supposed to be more mature!!
  14. LOL ok - in that case I'm going Blitz then!!! Can't afford full exhaust + rims + coilovers all at once!
  15. http://www.rhdjapan.com/nissan-oem-clip-57121 Are these it? Are these the ones that's under the wheel arches, on the airbox panel, etc etc?
  16. iamhe77's exhaust thread (listed above) gives the pipe sizing I think
  17. Yep - inclusive of everything (fees/shipping) it comes to $980 AUD delivered. The RHD Jap was about 770 before shipping...so unless shipping is 200 bux then it aint gonna be cheaper. Ok next question is - ground clearance. The Kaki looks like it'll scrap easy...any input from user's who's got it installed? performance wise are they pretty much the same?
  18. Jess can get me the Blitz or the Kakimoto R for a tad under $1k posted to me via EMS. bloody IM was around $1280 and that's pickup from Bayswater. RMS was $1280 also. Waiting for Just Jap to get back to me re the Blitz... Hmm just checked RHD Japan - Jess is still cheaper - 50560 yen for the Blitz before any fees/shipping vs 61k Yen
  19. Oh...are those Raizer mufflers listed in your exhaust page any good?
  20. Jess said he can cut the exhaust and I can have it welded back togather. Both Scotty and Jesse confirms that there is no performance loss - just aesthetics... The thing with Import Monster and Nengun is that for LESS then their sea freight price, I can have the exhaust at my doorstep from Jesse in 1 weeks time. Not that I'm in a hurry, but IM and Nengun prices are higher then Jesse. Jesse also mentioned that anything IM sends via containers have no insurance or tracking. So I guess its choosing between cheaper/faster/cut exhaust or more $$$/slower/non cut exhaust...
  21. When I got my car it had an Asuka unit installed already. Are these installed in Japan or Australia? I can view TV fine, the reception sucks though. The remote for the unit is awful.
  22. I've been scouting for a catback system for my M35. Planning to get Scotty to make everything from the dump to the Cat and get an aftermarket catback system. Been emailing Jesse Streeter lots and looks like I can get the Blitz Nur Touring or the Kakimoto R for around the same price delivered. So the question is - which one is better? I don't want something that's too loud during idle/regular driving. Sure, if its lound when I floor it that's nice...
  23. did a minor service at my mate's place on the weekend - Hampton Park (should've visited Scotty!). 5 litre of Mobil 1 goodness...
  24. I take it this is only worth it for high perf tyres? Cos say if I'm looking to run something like KU31's - its about 650 delivered from tirerack - which is the same as delivered from Tempe Tyres?
