Hi Guys,

I saw a group buy post for redline oil and was considering getting some for my GTST (I use it in the GTR and it's great). Group buys are good but I wanted to make sure I was getting the best deal as generally it's pay up front then wait, wait, wait so the saving needs to be good to make it worth while. It turns out I can get a better deal here for us in sydney. Unique Autosports a long time SAU supporter has agreed to do a group buy price for us of $90 per bottle of Redline Lightweight Shockproof (as used in the UAS 300ZX, stock gearbox, 400++kw, slicks, still working after years of punishing on track!)

Now the details are:

company providing the product: UAS

product: redline lightweight shockproof oil, 3.785 litre bottle

quantity: need 10 people, if we get more may be able to get a further discount

close date: Friday 28/7/06

Price: $90

retail: ~$135 (depends where you go)

collection from: Unique Autosports, Castle Hill Sydney (open monday-saturday)

postage cost: $15 local NSW $20 rest of AUS.

UAS have plenty in stock and can get more fairly quickly. If you are interested please post the following information here:

what you want

whether pickup or post

where you are (state, city, postcode)

NOTE: I didnt want to step on anyones toes, but i always thought group buys are supposed to be primarily for the benefit of the members so I just wanted us to get the best deal. I understand the other group buy guy was helping us out and furthering his friends business at the same time which is cool but I just dont think the price was that good considering there is a 4 week wait. But if you are in perth or places far from NSW the other group buy may work out a few $$ cheaper, but with a much longer wait. The beauty of this one is no long waiting perioid and for sydney guys it's very cheap if you are willing to pick-up.

They may also be able to do other types of redline product if there is enough interest, but for all manual skylines this stuff is the absolute best. It's very worthwhile.

Also, for those who dont want to get your hands dirty and your driveway messy UAS can do the oil change for you. With a booking first of course. I will confirm tomorrow with UAS on the labour cost of that.

any idea if a bottle will fill an R32 GTS-t box?

i'm pretty sure it will, but i'm at work, and don't have the ability to research those facts here :)

put me down as being interested in this, would have to be posted to Brisbane

I'll check again tomorrow, but I'm pretty sure 1 bottle is enough, it's either that or you will need one big one (3.8l) and one small one.

postage to brisbane is no problem.

hi guys, i've spoken to john and they can do the oil change for you for $40. this includes draining the old oil, refilling with the new stuff and the displosal of your old stuff. of course if you want them to change it please ring and make a booking first, but it should be pretty much while you wait.

Please put on your order "Beer Baron group buy" or "SAU group buy" so they know to charge you the correct price etc. All the details on price etc are in the first post. Please post up here when you have placed your order.

Don't worry about it, I need it tomorrow so i'm going to have to fork out and get it at $135

Hi mate,

If you are in Sydney you can pick it up straight away. no need to wait. Just rock in there and tell them you are from the Beer Baron group buy :wave: If interstate it could be a problem though!

All you other guys try and get your orders in. The sooner the better as it's much nicer if we can get the orders in over a shorter period :D

      I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side

      Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.

      Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
