  1. yeah chat tonight. There at Pauls place atm, but if his home this arvo i'll try and grab and take some photos. There both in excellent condition, except the anodising is fading slightly on the EX cam. I picked up set of cheap tomei ones, so i'm going with them just to keep the tomei theme going on my head (poncams, retainers, springs etc). this forum needs a like button
  2. Jack the car up and follow the front pipe..you should see one of them clearly enough. or pull out the intake piping and should catch a glance
  3. its definatly not a flux capacitor. srsly, looks like a cheap compliance cat and a custom front pipe.
  4. No idea sorry, they sit alright in the Gtr guards though. What rim is it? I have a spare set of hks cam gears that I'll sell for a special newe price if anyone is interested.
  5. White 34 gt just drove past the claro now
  6. Yep :-) if you get to martins I'll pick ya both up
  7. yeah the vale isn't that far...but warners bay during friday afternoon trafic...yeah i'll think ill pass on that sorry chookie.
  8. i'll think about it lol. bit out of my way.
  9. spotted a silver 34 4 door parked in a drive way in new lampton this arvo with a for sale sticker on the back (wont be exact on location in case its the owners house) and a white 33 going past the Energy australia stadium bout 4:15.
  10. where do people live? i was thinkin of driving i'm in mayfield
  11. Sean Nailed it. i'm getting a -5 system for 98 built atm with 2x3"-4" exhaust, 260 poncams etc - would love VCT :-( though...next year maybe. If your worried about the noise of the 4" exhaust, do what i'm doing and v-clamp the system. I have a 2nd 3" Ti catback exhaust thats super quite that i plan use on the street and keep the 4" for track days etc. Its a 15min (if that) jop to swap em over with the v-clamp. Get a mines style (equal length) front pipe with a flex joint made up too for best results.
  12. My $0.02 - I think alot of it comes done to who builds the engine and how anal they are about bearing/general clearences/tolerences. I beleive Its the shock loading caused by excissive clearence between the colour and gears that cause the pumps to fatique crack and fail...This can happen in all pumps, but its more prenounced in the n1's & stockers due to the relative strength of the material (sintered metal vs say en24(or there abouts) for the nitto). One day, i'll sit down and run an FEA analyse on a few of the pump designs to show the weak points in the designs. However, IMOH all pumps will work in the hands of a compentent engine builder. The tomei/nitto just offer an additional safety factor. If you do go down the tomie/nitto route, i strongly recommend getting a sump extension to 8L and baffels installed to prevent oil starvation due to the higher pump flow rate.
  13. Alot of the intial designs for areo components are done with CFD (computational fluid dynamic software - e.g. ansys) and then refined in a wind tunnel. It would be worth getting a demo of that organised...alot more widespread then wind tunnels, so it would be easier to find someone for a demo.
  14. blue slip, then its the same as buying a car in nsw, except you will get new plates :-)
  15. exchange, 5:30 tomorrow for a couple of beers and dinner.
  16. Good on ya martin! i think the hardest part is when you go out for drinks. Are trying patches or anything? or just beating the the sphincter of the universe cold. Not much been happening, just arrived back to newe from work this morning and caught up some sleep from the past two weeks.
  17. i was in the same situation last year. just car is pretty much the only option for under 25's with a r34 gtr...and the cost of their premiums is a joke
  18. No he pretty much got them all right. my old man wanted to call me mungo...pretty sure thats where i was conceived anyway...you do realise the rd from bulahdelah to mungo brush is not fully sealed....
  19. yeah, you got to keep the misses happy. lol. much to go?
  20. That must have just been just eating away at your concious. lol
  21. fair enough about the wreckers. I'll ask around. lol i might need my extra 100cc or so one day. How is your engine progressing? sounds like its a bit further on then mine lol.
  22. Id think these would be a dime/dozen at the wreckers...but if you can get em for free, all the better. Nice pup Jarad
  23. Block finished :-) Great success! Paul is going to try to start assembly tomorrow.
  24. yeah...didn't think of google translate... Cheers.
  25. Yeah english would be good but i am getting this error on the first link if someone can translate this: 不正なページ移動です。
