Sure does Alpha....although I think I'll learn to drive it with the 250 and when I'm confident wind up the boost :)

Thanks Zac...I see your white beast in the carpark everynow and again...still looks good :)

Congrats on selling your car, and even more so on the one you are getting! I do remember a conversation I had with you once about why you had to sell it though, it seems perspective has changed :laugh: We will have similar power, but you will have an extra 2 wheels, not fair :w00t:

Well done though mate ;)

Gontrats on the new car Ant...was going to ask why you sold it until I read the rest...nice ;)

Hey mitchy...I went the other way...if you are going for 2 wheels be careful...I can show you my leg and that might keep you aware on the bike...ride safe and look out for those damn 4wd owners :rofl:

ive riden bikes before (albeit trail bikes) but yeah i know the go with them, my dad has also riden one for the past however long, so he's gonna teach me a bit more :ninja:

Just got back from my site trip......Thanks for all your comments guys and gals :(

It has now been a week since I sold my line and I'm already suffering withdrawal symptoms :) I can't wait to take the R around the block for the first time :worship:

At this stage I looks like I'll be regoing her in Vic around the 16th Oct and then trucking her over to WA, so by the end of Oct I should be able to give people a ride :worship:

      Turn signal wiring question

      By OakvilleGTR · Posted

      Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..

      Lower A arm Skyline v35

      By sonicii · Posted

      The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.

      Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????

      Looking for autoelectrician in Perth who can do the OEM to double din stereo upgrade.

      Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
