  1. The point is, it would shit on most things and look sexy to boot.
  2. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say it depends on independant state's road laws... Like every other damn thing.
  3. Depends on what you want... If you just want a streetable car, I would think the 76mm would be fine... If you went to 100mm, you would probably see inefficiencies unless it was seeing full boost most of the time...
  4. Don't tell them its an S13 200sx though... they will probably laugh at you... (it's a silvia, they all are!)
  5. The best thing about skylines is finding out all the little extras you have... or miss out on (I have no ABS or sunroof )
  6. all he wanted was 1/4 mile times...
  7. I'm sure I read somewhere on here that all GTS25t's were type M. The type M just denoted it was a turbo car. If you do a search, you'll find a lot of debate on whether there was a type-M and what extra features you got. All I know is mine has digital climate control, the lower front bar and viscous LSD.
  8. Looks like a KIA Mentor (sp?) from the back... What a Joker.
  9. Hehe and if she was hot, he'll probably kick himself
  10. To add: all powere figures advertised by car manufaturers are at the fly wheel. This is the most accurate measurement and they are advertising how much power the ENGINE makes.
  11. In Japan, there used to be a gentlemans agreement between the car manufacturers that they would not advertise power greater than 280ps, or 206kW. I believe this has since gone out the window, but some still honour it (350Z for one).
  12. Pay close attention to the coil pack comment... My coil packs are dying slowly, and one day my car just decided it didn't want to idle any more (until they were cleaned with contact cleaner). The black smoke is probably the unburnt fuel from the affected cylinder. A compression test is always handy though I guess.
  13. how does power have a direct relationship to speed?
  14. GT-R cooler is also an option as i've heard the yare good up to 300kW and also are black and a stock nissan part Only issue is piping i suppose.
  15. If you didn't see it in the news, chances are it wasn't a skyline at least.
  16. umm... good luck.
  17. If it is doing it excessively it's probably just your plugs... if not, could be coil packs.
  18. Thanks mate. Will have a captain cook.
  19. Yea I reckon the editor of the Daily Telegraph must have had his arse kicked by a Skyline and now has a vandetta against us all
  20. http://www.smh.com.au/news/National/NSW-fa...4344933013.html For once we don't get a mention! lol Although they don't bash these people as much as they would have if it was another skyline driver.
  21. Hi All... My coil packs seem to be getting worse, and I'm afraid I do not have the technical ability to silicon them up. Splitfires seem to be the expensive option and I was just wondering if there is anything in between which will give me back my peak power... Nengun seem to have the cheapest price for the Splitfires, but can someone give me the FINAL landed costs for these? Cheers.
  22. Somewhere around $10-$14k i guess... I'm sure others will have a more accurate range.
  23. Interesting to note that NSW will have the 2nd lowest level of fatalities since 1949 yet they are still reporting as if its a record number of deaths.
  24. Yea, statistics don't lie... but the ways they are represented do. Stats can be manipulated to say anything the government/press want them to. I'd like to get my hands on the raw stats as well and come up with my own conclusion that people over 65 cause the most accidents on the road. Or Politicians and journalists are the worst drivers on the so we should ban them all from driving bewtween 6 and 11 in the morning and 4.30 and 8.30 in the afternoon (when the news is on hehe).
