  1. forums.skylinesaustralia.com gave me some wierd messed up page the other day
  2. I like the stuff sk says, even if it is obvious to experts, like Merli, to me a newbie its helpful, I don't think his target audience was you when he replied. I'm guessing a majority of this forum didn't know what SK explained above. keep it up SK!
  3. it was my cousins camera and lense, the fish eye lenses are good hey yep all from my car there was no car in front of me at the end part because thats where i got split up from the group, i was inbetween 1st and 2nd group, chasing 1st group but they pulled into winery and i kept going all the way to lancefield
  4. *hides* i got flamed for putting slicks in the same catagory as nitrous, but i agree
  5. afaik he has to show receipts that they were destroyed....
  6. I've had my car to 270km on a track straight, at about 6000rpm in 5th gear with it still pulling, but ran out of track, but i'm guessing my speedo would be a fair way out at that speed, so it may of only been 240-250? i have a gps now so could use that I recon my car could crack or come very close to 300km/h (on my speedo)
  7. i'd love to see if i could get my car to 300ks/h in safe conditions, but you are all up north

    Advice Please

    Go to whitelines website, ( www.whiteline.com.au ) has lots of info... shocks... depends what you wanna spend, what you wanna do - once again check whitelines stuff out (they use bilsten shocks afaik) camber at the rear is a bit much i think, you would definatly want it same both sides, generally -1 on the rears is the go and about -1.5 on the front (this is on GTR, assuming same for gts) its on the whiteline page go to "your car" and pick your car
  9. 71m first go (well second since id idn't know what to do first time) edit: 83 on about my 5th go
  10. haha heath, if you don't need anything that ill be ultra fast, then go back to your corolla, it will be cheaper
  11. snowman, hav eyou tried BMW for your parts? the M3's have the getrag in them as well
  12. i like it without a spoiler, just get a nice set of rims for it first
  13. funky: true you do need to restart apache if you make changes to httpd.conf, but if he needs to enable mod_rewrite he'll need to restart it anyway and your right it does look like it co-hosts saunsw.com, but don't see how that makes much difference, cept when he restarts apache, both will go down for a few moments
  14. Roy: yeah your probably right, i can't drive for sht so i doubt anything bad will happen, but just paranoid i guess incase i get lucky or unlucky... Gojira: what do you mean oil supply up to track work?
  15. i think maintenance and mods get mixed up sometimes... keeping a stock R33 GTR maintained wouldn't be so bad, a little bit thirsty on the fuel, 17" tyres aren't too bad, heavy duty single plate clutch would be fine... as ben said lots of parts are readily avialable... its more when you start moding, and have to do maintence as part of that ie my car is a bit lower than normal, so i have a bit too much negative camber, so i need to put a camber kit on etc... my wheels are 18" so tyres are that bit more expensive... its running a bit more boost so its a little bit thirstier.. etc.... but no matter how good you think the car is, always budget a bit for things to go wrong, its a 8-9 year old performance vehicle, people don't buy GTR's to drive them like camerys, they buy to drive them how they are built to be driven....
  16. hahahah, 3 turbos isn't as simple as your thinking
  17. hahaha wtf is http://forums.skylinesaustralia.com/ you could just stick it in the httpd.conf instead of messing with htaccess
  18. inark - i have about 9-10 gig of raw DV footage if you want it, similar to that video if you wanna go out filming on a cruise etc.. im keen
  19. abobob: thats nutz!!! i hope that doesn't happen to me but would redline of prevented that?
  20. hmmmm i thought i had the box on a 10mbit switch port... so that 41MB must be coming locally from you
  21. werd on mesh and evl said
  22. love that first pick funky, thats awesome! where was it taken? yeah i wanna get on the track as well, still preping my car but!!
  23. Orex: definatly your clutch is slipping, in higher gears, 3rd, 4th etc... you will find it just revs up without going anywhere... time for a new clutch, quick
  24. That sounds like a good idea inark!!!
