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

Right.... This is probably why i find that some jap cars have seized toe bolts, and are out by 21mm. (Treating them like commodores in my opinion)

Not to mention the fact its a 40 dollar, every 10,000km kinda thing. i spend more money on a cruize.

no skin of my back if he doesn't get a wheel alignment,

just i know that his toe would be out. and its good to check all the figures are even after installing coil-overs.

either way you don't NEED a wheel alignment, but your car does handle better, steer better, and wear tires better if you do.

Hence the fact i wheel align my car ever 5000km with oil change. (i would still do it even if i didn't work at bob Jane)

haha yeah i know how important a proper wheel alignment can be, will go get one done tommorow but was only wandering if it was absolutely necessary just so i know.

last week when i went to get mine done, all the settings were all over the place. cant tell you how much of a difference i felt after it was done! completely different car.

Continued from the "What do you ride" thread.

WOoOoOohOoOooO!!!! Just picked up my 2007 R6 today!!! loving life but hated life on the ride home from prospect - paralowie its SO HOT!!!!!

well here she is... im so happy :D

I heard word that you're not licensed to be riding an R6. :huh:

If you do not have a license to ride the R6 then you should stick to learner approved motorcycles. Most bikers (as well as cops) do not take too kindly to unlicensed/restricted riders on bikes they're not permitted to.

If this is not the case, then happy riding. ;)

lol, GOLD......expect a visit Kietz!

now where's that post about you riding in the heat a week or so ago?! :blush:

ahaha come come ^_^ what can anyone do =] i was the passenger ;)

are you serious or do you actually think you're one step ahead of authorities? :wacko:

need I remind you of a certain very tall building in Walkerville that records activity at every major intersection in Adelaide and can identify you by a pimple on your nose if needs be?

and did I neglect to mention that I'm a CTP Investigator?

one day when I grow up I wanna be as clever as Kietz.

Which bob jane

i haven't had an alignment done ever in this car would be interesting to come and see where it all lies

I work at Henley Beach Road Bob Jane.

Near Marion Road And Henley Beach Intersection.

Not a worry. I'm just fussy about my figures and how much better it feels to just toe it up every so often.

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      Update time!  The JZX110 had some maintenance needing to be done, so a lot of the seals with replaced to fix some oil leaks. Also used this opportunity to whack on a front mount that I'd bought some time ago.  I also finally got the rear lip painted and fitted.  I then got the exhaust done. It's just a catback for now. Custom made 3" stainless with a turn down. I could have a tip coming out, but it will require cutting the rear lip and possibly the bumper itself. So far I do like and it's made the car a little more zippy.  Close out with some nice pictures of the cars and a sneak peek of what's next.

      Once you learn it all, you find you do the job once. But this is the best way to learn, as you won't forget the lessons

      The FD RX7 is the best looking 90's JDM car

      By PranK · Posted

      This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?

      Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
