235/45/17 also happens to be the cheapest size for most performance tyres I found when i did the ring around recently... for a street car I highly recommend Bridgestone RE001's, or Kumho KU36 from option1garage.com.au if on a tight budget.

aslong as they cut around where the rust was(yes cut out some good metal too) then weld in some new metal, it will be fine... how do you think all those classics get restored?

Putting it on a truck is a much better idea than driving it.

I don't give a shit whether you buy mine or not, but have a look at it as a template for mods They need the standard RB 100k service upon purchase, they NEED good pads, tyres, shocks and alignment bushes, the springs and swaybars are an optional mods, but the others are a maintenance item. Radiator reco is a peice of mind thing. Full exhaust saves fuel and makes it go better, same with FMIC. Will add more after dinner. If you are interested in making an offer on mine, feel free, if you have stagea questions, I will answer them whether you are interested in mine or not, here or in the stagea section. -Ryan

Thats what I thought too... and some pad compounds are a lot easier to recover from lockups than others.

I would of thought cold semi's would grip less than RE001's? or have they been heat-f**ked? Mine are 40k km old and have been through many a heat cycle in the hills(hot to touch after a drive), Then again, I have never had semi's(havent driven on the KU36's yet) What pads/rotors/fluid are you running? I find some pads alot harder than others to recover from a lock-up...

You should see Calder Paul, keep the updates coming!

Since selling my 1600 18months ago and buying the skyline 2months ago, I have wondered whether it would be suitable for dirt work(datto was only a cage away but my situation made me sell it)... I knew the S13 would be this generations P510, But too me it makes more sense to try and use the R32- Wishbone front end, bigger brakes etc, and if you arent running for points(which from the sound of things in an R32 GTST you WONT be!), IF the 20 ever dies could put a 25 in as we all know torque is king That said, a bloody R31 could be THE cheapest way into rallying... 3L torque, RWD etc, but lack of aftermarket parts could be an issue. The bulk of hollow aftermarket arms would be useless IMO. But it isn't hard to get good stuff made up if you know where too go... I had billet LCA's in my 1600

Did you see Roman's tyres? flatspotted snow tyres on the front, and half decent rubber on the rear :S My aim is too have a TPS and brake pads by then... pads are yet to be ordered, TPS, well the wrong one was sent weeks ago, and the replacement was due down last week... So maybe by november, hopefully this year.(This is not my mechanics fault, solely the parts supplier who won't refund us, only replace)

Please have new tyres by then

alarm?

I have 235/45/17 KU36 on my 17x9

I have found them to be great compared to other sites. I have purchased brake pads from them. Would of purchased a TPS from them, but they only list RB25 and RB26, not RB20

Yeah, i was gonna go, but gotta pick up the woman from work at 9.... might try and come for 45mins though...

Only good drive out there is the back way through Forrest through the Otways, the GOR is just full of Tourists and speed cameras... The weather is improving, a BBQ cruise could be done.... I'm just not a fan of the GOR, but if enough people want to run it i will come haha

I have the same unit, haven't set it up yet though... pdf1643.pdfpdf1644.pdf

Grab the JustJap Dump/Front combo in stainless, then if need be get the cat side re shaped. Make sure the Mufflers are good quality( i like magnaflow), and the cat is minimum 3"

Traffic out that way is shit... I am in workload/energy dependant

My favorite route is the back way home through Forrest, heading home from Apollo bay take the alt route turn off

I timed the mini wang so i remember a couple of the cars. Results will be up in a few days from what I heard. Hope they can read my writing...
