  1. well i was thinking something like that because when my clutch fan packed it in, i may/may not have adjusted some bolts i was not meant to... i might check it out tomorrow, see what i can see. cheers.
  2. unfortunately, power steering levels are all fine... so i dont know what it is... someone suggested gravel in the brakes...
  3. my daily driving shift points are 60kmh to 4th then about 90kmh to 5th... just the way i've always done it... that way i have some torque there if i should want to call on it
  4. Similar thing happened to e, about a week after getting my rims, driving on the freeway between 90-110 it was vibrating pretty badly. I figured it was probably just the nuts needing tughtening, but that wasnt it... Next conclusion was that i'd lost a weight and was out of balance... Took it back the next day and got em to look at it. After rebalancing and wheel alignment it all seems good again... might help.
  5. No... didn't even think about that i was too concerned with it being something bigger! it makes sense too because it only really happens when the car is cold and not "warmed up"... Will check this arvo. Cheers.
  6. judging by the pics, i dont think a roll cage would have been of too much assistance... that car is squashed flat.
  7. looks like a gtr grill to me, but with the S in the middle...
  8. hi guys, when i turn the steering wheel while stationary, i here a slight metalic grinding noise which seems to be louder when i first start her up. I also hear it when going around slow corners/roundabouts. I'm gonna get it checked out next service as there dont seem to be any adverse handling effects, but would anyone be able to offer any insight? Cheers.
  9. add 100 to the monaro's weight... didnt realise they were such heavy ****ers.
  10. i assume we are talking gtst?? stock for stock, needless to say the monaro would win... however if you had 200rwkw+ id suggest it would would be very close. The new monaros have 260kW i think and prolly weigh around 1600kg, so a 200rwkw line should be able to keep up only weighing around 1400kg and having approx the same power. Im sure people have first hand accounts though.
  11. is that what that light is... i thought it looked more like the stock cooler though... well at least i will know the problem if it ever comes on!
  12. not just sydney... i work in newcastle and one day while simply walking to the shops to buy some lunch, some low life scum was having a domestic with his skank arse girlfriend/wife whatever. Anyway, as i was walking past minding my own business, this ****in derro yells out "do ya want me to be like that **** sucker in the suit do ya? well i can have as much as him, i can have anything i want cos i canjust bash him or go and steal a car"... needless to say i just kept walking cos i am a *****... There are some **** ups in this world no doubt, you cant blame anyne but them and their parents... sure the cops should stoff picking on modifdied car owners and deal with real crime but we all know that will never happen.
  13. FTO's come in tip-tronic mostly... I think they are sexy and sound mean hen revved out (MIVEC ones anyway) so that would be my choice... insurance is pretty steap though, i think just cars quoted about 2500 the same as what they quoted me for the skyline... so guess which one i chose
  14. got gold B and A licences today.. something tells me im not the first one...
  15. The game is fantastic... so much fun 'drifting' my r32 gts-t around but is anyone else pissed off that EVERY other model is skyline is in this game (including about 10 different varieties of R34 GT-R) but yet there are no R33 GTS25t of R34 GT25t (except the D1 version)???? I mean it's just disappointing not being able to buy the car iown in real life and driving it
  16. Just got my renewal slip: Rating 3 with JustCar on a 93 R33 GTS-t with an agreed value of $20,500 and i'm paying $1,700 PA... Last year it was >$2,600 so i'm pretty happy with the saving this year! If only JC had a pay by the month arrangement.
  17. Hmmm originally i thought I had dodgy coil packs... believe i still might, however my popping and loss of power on full throttle only seems to be intermitant... usually on very hot days... just wondering if anyone might have any other suggestions besides coilpacks?
  18. GOLD JERRY! hehehehehe nice call.
  19. international hp is amercian where as metric hp is japanese (ps)... i think you'll find there is really no difference between them all for you purpose.
  20. aahahaha... this has GOT to be the oldest thread ever dug up....
  21. I have a silencer that slides in to the muffler and fixed with a small screw/bolt and it does quieten it down substantially. If you have a cannon style muffler, i can't see why you couldnt get an exhaust shop to knock one up for you...
  22. If its photochop, they also went to the trouble of modifying hte diagrams on the wall behind it which show how it is supposed to work... I'd say its genuine.
