  1. ok then - you silk wearing buttercups... :jester: do we re-schedule based on numbers ? Which date is better for most of you slack-jawed yokels ?? (EDIT: /end aggresive mode/)
  2. Me too - havent heard from Carlo for a while, though.. :headspin:
  3. Hey Peeps... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...051#post1013051 the more the merrier !!
  4. As per the last event... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=40696 i think it is about that time again when we take over El Rancid (oops - El Ranchos) for a few alcoholic beverages, tall tales and maybe possibly some food... When: Friday 24th September Where: El Ranchos, Ryde Road North Ryde Time: 12:30pm till whenever you run out of money. Skylines optional, non-Ryde people most welcome !!
  5. Yep sure do - about 650kms per week !! :Oops: the car loves it though... Hey Duncan.. Was it the car you spotted, or was it me ?? If it was me at a lunch venue we all know, shouldve dropped in for a round !! hmm...speaking of which we need another lunch...
  6. Like a few others here, i must have Stealth Mode installed on my car, as i havent been spotted EVER - in over 8 months of driving !! Quute amazing since my car is a daily driver from North Ryde to the Central Coast everyday.. Im thinking of starting up a "WANTED: have you seen this skyline" thread to gauge the spotting capabilities of the forum regulars.. :sly: although i might have to offer a prize to those who spot the "rare birds" :alcoholic hmmm... interesting idea that... thoughts ??
  7. Hi Zahos... Yep - even double clutch (sometimes)... How much to rewplace a synchro - assuming ill already have the gearbox out ?? Hi Nathan... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=37992
  8. oil-wise i just did a full change with the Castrol about 10,000kms ago....
  9. hmm...but if this is the case, why would my car just start to do this now ?? i do a fair few freeway k's (about 450/week), so its not like i havent noticed it before...
  10. hi Guys (and Gals).. just started happening on my R33 GTST, changing gears from 4 to 5 and it crunches, like the clutch isnt actually engaged.. It only happens with this gear change, but it doesnt happen all the time, just most of the time - if i do a low rev change (say at 80km/hr) and REEEEALLY change slowly (ie push in clutch, sit for about 2 secs and then change gears slowly) it sometimes doesnt do it. However, everytime ive tried this method (and any others !!) over 100km/hr, its always crunched - man i hate that sound ! Being a daily driver on the freeway, i dont want to see this develop into a big issue. In about a month im planning on getting the clutch replaced, lightened flysheel installed and i was going to get the thrust bearing replaced as well. Can anyone think of what this could be, and what i should get looked at while the gearbox is out/being looked at ? (my suspicion is maybe the syncro - thoughts ?)
  11. Zoidberg did good !! Cheers Jim...
  12. ...me personally i am using a HKS pod filter - but i didnt get to install it.. Ive been told that it will fit all sized pod filters... this was an item sourced from a group buy CAI on this forum a while back, but i cant find the thread...
  13. Thanks Jimbo... "Hooray - you're helping !!" :thankyou: Zoidberg strikes again...
  14. ..Also possibly interested pending price, and ease of installation...
  15. For Sale: CAI for Pod filter.. Will definetely fit for a R33 Series 1 GTS-T with standard intercooler or aftermarket.. Not sure about the rest.. Bought of group buy from forums a while ago - no longer needed.. Black Aluminium (about 2mm thick) - pics included $120 + postage... (or pickup if in Sydney/Ryde area) contact via PM... Cheers, Matt
  16. ...so if you wanted to run 11-12 psi with the stock turbo (and wastegate) for RB25, can you just change the spring - or do you need a whole wastegate replacement (like an rb20 one, for example) ?
  17. awww - can you feell the lurve !!!.. :hippy:
  18. How's about a stall convertor as well while you are at it ?? Great bang for your buck - help in those all important launches..
  19. Depending on how paranoid you wish to get, upgrading the turbo is also illegal...
  20. ..you can be my coffee Biatch, like your friend Tim S... all the grinds you can eat !!
  21. could also be possibly interested in the cabin one - pics to mattyanon@hotmail.com
  22. The standard camry's had a similar option. Basically if you have an existing remote entry key, you pu it into a reader located in the glovebox for 5 seconds, removed it, put in the blank remote key you purchase from Toyota for $40 and you now have two. Although you need the original key... Possibly you could talk to an alarm company who can incorporate remote entry into the alarm - then you can get rid of what you have ??
