  1. Maybe it made a difference but did it gain any power? (rhetorical question there as I know you haven't dyno'd it) If it did, did you make any other mods at the same time?
  2. I've never tried but can't you adjust them down a little more with those white round thingies? I'm sure I've been a great help
  3. Also interested. Are they the ones in the avatar? 4 stud still?
  4. depends if they are booked out or not. ring aaron at some stage on Ph/Fax: 02 48 722-622 Mob: 0410 317 013
  5. That's called misleading and deceptive conduct and is expressly outlawed by the Trade Practices Act. You definitely have a case. Not saying that taking anything to court is easy but I think you would be right in this instance. Are you in Sydney? If so pm me some details if you like and I will look into it.
  6. I'd suggest you put a temperature gauge in for the trans before you bother with this. At least then you will know whether you need it or not.
  7. done
  8. That's on an R33. It's not the same for the R34 because of the stock cooler being bigger.
  9. Check this thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...opic=105491&hl=
  10. hmm. I think you should probably send him the parts and be done with it Oscar. Everyone here can see what the story is so there is ultimately little harm done and it will show your decent side. What I find strange is someone deleting a pm containing details about a transaction while it is still in progress - in this instance the phone number. maximumrpm, even when I pm'd you Oscars number and told you to call him you didn't. You just replied to me with details that I was presumably to pass on. You wouldn't even call me even though I gave you my number as well. In my opinion Oscar is a seriously stressed out dude due to his personal circumstances. He could have done slightly better but his actions are completely forgivable due to his attempts to go the extra mile for maximum rpm and his personal situation. Maximumrpm seems to me to be a very shy person who could have solved a lot of this with a phone call. He joined SAU in April 2003 so he must have a pretty good idea about how the forums work. That said, he wasn't rude about Oscar, he just called him out. In short; shit has happened outside of the control of either party which has set off a chain of events. It's up to both of you to do your best to sort it out and make yourselves look good to the rest of us. End of discussion.
  11. Yup cooler number 5 going in soon. I was thinking about a diff cooler too but i'm going mecahanical instead.
  12. Whose dyno was that Stan? There is definitely enough variation in dyno readings to account for what you got there. I got 162rwkw from full exhaust, panel filter and more boost. That's with big name parts too. Putting a fmic on will on decrease response, you will not get any more power from it. I would go so far as to say that if I had my time again I wouldn't have put a front mount on until I upgraded the turbo. The r34 smic is bigger than the r33 one. I don't think there is anything wrong with what you've got there unless that wierdness at the top there is not dyno operator induced.
  13. I'm wondering if they foul up at all because mine used to read quite low and slightly erratic but since the engine was rebuilt, same sensor reused, it reacts quicker and seems to be higher which of course I put down to it being a newer engine therefore better oil pressure. dunno.
  14. You can change them yourself easy but you need spring compressors which are not expensive. The height will only change if you want it to. Stock replacement shocks wont do this.
  15. pm's sent and replied and phone calls made. It's all good.
  16. R32 is 10psi, R33 is 5 and 7psi (depending on rpm), R34 is 7psi.
  17. Ok this situation is now sorted. I rang Oscar as to my knowledge he is a very decent bloke and wouldn't try to rip anyone off. He has assured me that there is a legitimate reason for all of this which he can tell you all if he likes. You will have your parts in the next couple of days or a refund if you so desire. Sending you a pm now.
  18. I am on this case for you. This happened once before but there was a legitimate reason in the end. Also, from what I and a few other people know of him, he is a pretty decent bloke.
  19. That's the East Bear kit not a real GTR front end in case anyone was wondering.
  20. Even on the GTT they can play up and read quite low. It seems all skylines can do this. Also the type of oil can affect it.
  21. Cos 4 doors rock! Putting a GTR front end on it will look weird because it's wider, also I think it's a bit lame trying to pretend it's something that it's not. You can make a GTT look tough without pretending it's a GTR if you want.
  22. They are a generally rude bunch of people but the prices are good and the range not bad.
  23. Fit = quite likely. Gains = none.
  24. Need bigger injectors. Is it auto or manual?
