Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

I herd that a new law is comming in so you can run 19s or 20s on a skyline so will this mean the clearance from center of the wheel to guard will change??????

Its always been 2 inches above what came on the car stock. So for a '32 gtr, max is 18", for a 33 gtr, 19" for a '34 gtr, 20".... whether or not the tyre/rim is suitable for your setup, I guess that depends on the car in question but from what I understand, the 18" is the most I can put on my GTR. Which suits me fine cause I think the r34 gtr rims are pimp. So if any of u guys with 34gtrs get 20's, I'll take yr old rims >:(

ha ha, someone just offered me 600 for my rims my reply was.......ROFLMO.......thats all i wrote.

god, next they will want them for free.

Yeah, everyone wants something for nothing!

I had some the sphincter of the universe offer me $500 for my GSXR race bike which I'm selling for $5000 (bargain as is). I simply replied: "Come back when mommy raises your allowance."

Tell him "Sure, I'm desperate. I'll take the $630." Then give him an address of a biker club. :(

Thats a popular response of mine too. They won't be so scabby next time.

ok i took my coilpack cover off....

started the car waited 20mins or so to hit full operating temp...

nothing...

so i drove it and still NOTHING

so i have come to the conclusion that it may be getting hot under the cover at full opp temp?

i guess i drive it with the cover off till my spitfires arrive.. is it ok to leave the cover off??

and i correct in saying that this was prob the problem?

cheers

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      This has been covered a bazillion times but google wet boiling point vs dry. Motul is only good when it's fresh, once it absorbs moisture it gets pretty average very quickly. So as above, make sure you change it if you're going racing. I run the Endless brake fluid in mind, but only because a mate is a distributor and it's cheap. It's not quite as good as SRF but I'm running 380mm rotors on a Skyline so it's not like they get hot.

      Does 98ron contain ethanol?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      That's the thing, they still add it and it makes fuel cheaper, implying adding 10% of it drops the cost of 91 by what, 5c a liter? I remember when it was barely half the price of 98. Because you know, 85% of what is in the fuel is way cheaper than 91 fuel is by volume.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Auto electricians that do repairs on automotive AC systems can source service kits. I don't know where they actually source them. I do know that there is one available for the R34 comp that I would need it for. If you have to pay someone to dismantle, clean and do needed repairs and fit kit contents, then you'd probably end up spending a good fraction of the cost of a new one. I would not be paying for that, because I would be doing it myself. My mechanic (bro-in-law) will happily source what is needed. Back in the day (like in the 80s and 90s), rebuilding an AC compressor was the standard approach, same as for starter motors, alternators, etc, because new replacements were v. expensive. After the China manufacturing boom and the rise of the disposable approach to everything, people just started throwing broken/worn stuff away and not rebuilding things.

      Is rebuilding it even a thing? Where would the shop find parts for it? I looked at some off these local online stores for my r34 and suprisingly they had brand new aftetmarket ones for $600-800 I think. I guess r32 might be a bit tougher.

      I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
