Saw a black s1 r33 on the way to work this morning, comming up to the round about/ turn off to adfa.. looked good, I went past the other way pretty fast tho...

The two numbers are a representation of how think the oil is, when its cold hence your "0" and when its hot "50" which is very thick (good for keeping hot engines cool). Mobil 1 is expencive for a reason, it covers a wide range of temp. The thickness changes with temp, ie gets thicker when hotter. There for Mobil 1 being 0W-50 will cover a wider range than 15W50. The only thing you want to be carefull of is that the oil is not too thin when starting (cold) as rb engines can develop leaks (mine is fine). On a cold mornings (Canberra/winter) you would want as thin as possible for starting so it has oil in it quick, if its too think when cold it will take ages to get up to the heads and you risk running the engine with next to no oil in it = bad. (dont flog your car when cold). I stand by mobil 1 for road use for these reasons although I dont drive on the track (yet)and havent had much experiance with track cars, but I would assume the oil princiles are the same, but being the cars will be running hotter for longer you would want a thinker oil to cool the cylinders and stop ceasing. I belive redline make a track engine oil but I dont know its viscosity. Things to keep in mind: - When oil gets older it looses its viscosity (not as effective), and should be replaced arround 5000kms in tough conditions = boost. - If the car temp is out side the oils capability it will break down and not be effective. - If the car is cold you shouldn't give it any till the temp needle is atleast off cold so you know the oil is inplace. - Oil is not only a lubricating substance but also a cooling substance. Change your oil regularly... Car will love you long time for it.. If I am incorrect in any place's pls correct me..

Just get NGK plugs for your car and gap then to 8mil ... will be fine, and use Redline oil.. wont regret it...

I would agree with R31Heaven, I would be susspicous of your sync's, try redline oil in the box if it still grinds it may be the clutch weight but I doubt that would be so bad.. change the box oil dude.. I had the same prob when I first got my car and the oil change has fixed the issue, I know thatthe sync are bad and that this will only be temp/eventually I will have to get the sync replaced, but if you change the oil and it goes away then you will know what the issue is..

that would be nice.. it ran 14 flat with a slipping clutch.. so shoule be a different car now..

Looks sweet stuff leech... cant wait to see it..

Hey people I have an R32 GTR and was looking at the turbos the other day, does any one know what the markings mean? I did a search but to no avail.... IE, it has "GARRETT M24 1-1" on it and I want to know if these are std or not, I guess the reason is that they are clean as and the chasis around is not clean hence, they have been refubished or replaced and I want to know what they are.. any help?

As will me and some mates...

you didn't go into the specials page did you? the 6 point button is in the specials page for almost the same price as the organic, the button is ceramic and capabale of holding on to 300+ kws ATW with 40% extra clamping pressue..

Its not in yet, it will be in on mon-tues I will keep you posted, how ever looking at it there is not much pad and its ceramic, I have a feeling this baby is not gunna slip/wear and hence might have some major DOG tendancy's, but we can live with that cant we

UAS have some specials on clutch's atm, I just got a 6 point ceramic button for my 32GTR at an exchange cost of $490... www.uniqueautosports.com

I'm in if the cluth is done.. BTW the RALLY pits this year is not by the lake its at sutton, in the driver training centre..

Before you go ahead and buy one.. you better price a replacement engine.. hahaha its funny....

OK Guys below is a list of people who ergently need clutchs and have expressed interest in this thread. Can we organise either a group buy or a discount for buying so many or some sort of club discount asap.

mines in the gril and looks pretty fat if you ask me.. hmm trying to upload a pic...

You wont have any worrys with SSPI.. they are top blokes to deal with.. I had lots of dealings with them when my car came in... they were also cheeper than EVERYONE else I talked to and that was with out even asking ...

put the hard word on him for us..

and me... can some one get on to Jamizilla

Heap of Lines at Woden Last night for the Kill Bill 2 release.. inc one red R33, pretty low, nice rims, sticker on the back window (forget what it said now) and possibly the worst park I have ever seen, looked like he entered the spot sideways, hmm seamed like a lak of respect for his ride oh well it still looked nice.. also saw a Grey R33 with Black/blue Tri spokes, also looked nice was Hella loud too..

no smart remarks...

Its a cheep place to buy (in comparrison) and its where all the new familys end up... 16 yr old mummys and daddys... hence nappy Valley!

never compromise on what you really want.. if you can afford to buy it, do it, and just dont mod it for a while.. I got my GTR a few months ago and I wont go back its the best car I have ever been in... and I got a 15yr old one @ about $15,000... its stock cept for exhaust, filters, suspention, and oil cooler... has about 80-100,000kms... immaculate condition.. dude dont compromise as you will always regret that decition and when you finally rectify it by buying the GTR, you will have wasted HEAPS of cash that you could have save'd by making the GTR decission today.. BUY THE GTR FOOL! IF YOU WANT MORE DETAILS PM ME
