  1. I shall message you tomorrow about Oil cooler and mirrors.
  2. Brown sludge is pretty common in skyline cooling systems, try flushing the motor and rad 1st, its easier than headstuds WHen i replaced my manifold coolant hoses the other day they were 1/2 solid due to the crud build-up in them as it clearly hadnt been flushed ever lol. Washed and Vac'd my car today. Also did a few little things in the engine bay, still pretty messy though
  3. Paint is House of Color Galaxy grey witha few different tinters and stuff to make it darker. Lowish power due to not wanting to destroy the bottom end as its only standard. Will get new motor soon and hoping to be at the 400awkw mark
  4. I have some standard 32gtr parts if people need. Afms, ecu, cat, another exhaust (dunno if legal, have never fitted it) fuel rail. FPR.
  5. Lockbar Anthony I love my ghetto 4wd switch, although real men drift in AWD
  6. what kinda date did you have in mind Rob? I suspect most are going away or busy for easter
  7. In other news, had the motor out last weekend to do the oil pump (it was leaky after powercruise ) Lets just say what a F***ing pain they are to remove and install lol. Painted and tidied a few things whilst it was out though, will stick up some pics in a min!
  8. Next will be a 2.8 and some e85. Probably a PPG gearset too. I did see you a few times Nate, car was looking great as always!
  9. got motor out, changed all the water hoses and inlet gaskets, removed the remainder of the wtin turbo water and vacume lines that arent used and tidied up the engine bay a bit. pretty productive, not as much as id hoped though no wheels for me tomorrow so yall have fun without me
  10. Possibly Richard, Ill let you know even if you just want to say hi. I roped a few of the VW techs from work in so they are used to having confined spaces and lots of hoses haha
  11. Anyone got a water hose kit for a r32 gtr? Preferably in black.
  12. Heres a few pics thanks to United Photography and Tash Williams. As you can see the campground got a bit muddy which made driving in and out fun
  13. Yep so quick update as i dont have any pics yet. Did 1400kms over powercruise weekend without a hitch, however the morning after i got home i noticed oil under the car coming off the front of the motor Did a 100,000km service and did the crank seal to try stop id which didnt work. Come to the conclusion that the pump probably has a crack ( i flogged the absolute crap out of it at powercruise lol. might have hit 9,500 on a std motor and pump ) or the seal is busted so im pulling the motor to do it this weekend as well as new inlet/exhaust gaskets and a bit of a tidyup of the engine bay. Will take a few pics when i do it and in the meantime ill find/upload pics from powercruise
  14. All good man, Im really after the hoses under the plenum as i vaguely recall someone telling me they split in their old age... Or maybe after watching your car piss coolant at the calendar cruise i realised that sucks and i'd rather not have to pull the motor again
  15. got a metal inlet/exhaust gasket kit, few speedflow fittings, oil pump and gasket ahead of the weekend. No fkn way im gonna be pulling this motor out again lol. On that topic, anyone got a black heater hose kit for 32 gtr laying round?
  16. Unless a miracle happens im out Long story short, cracked oil pump at powercruise and am pulling motor out on saturday to put a new one in. If its back in and running ill be there (albeit sleep deprived), but i doubt it. Sorry Lads and Lasses
  17. I did a 100k service on mine on wednesday includong front seal in an attempt to stop the oil leaks. no dice motor out and new oil pump next weekend
  18. Ordered the seals i need to stop my motor from leaking Maybe racing everyone i could at powercruise wasnt a great idea however i have done 2000kms in the past 2 weeks
  19. i can see the rta and epa setting up a stand too.... ... on the way out
  20. i left mine for a week once and it didnt start for 2 months lol
  21. yeah tell me about it
  22. yeah from nissan. i dont think we do from memory but they can be freighted overnight
  23. i got some for a mate the other day, about $14 each .
  24. Ah ok. Oh well worth a try. Also maybe check the ecu relay, gave me headaches for months as it wasnt switching properly. Anyway i hope Yavuz sorts it quickly!!
