i loooooovvveee the rocky horror picture show :D

oh that brings back memories,,lol

the whole crowd dress up to go to movies for rocky horror in vintage theater

not exactly a musical but Heavy metal, pink floyd the wall to name a few good ones

or in new york, las vegas ,, pretty cool

you can buy anodized colour paints in town now thats what I used last week, they handle pretty hi temps on short durations, rocker covers no problem.

brakes too , not racing , too hot

Thanks, that looks like it'll do the trick with some 'ground coat' first

Luke that HKS dump and front pipe I added links for. If they go for higher than that and postage is too much it'll be cheaper for me to just get an all in one dump/front from AM Performance like I had already planned on doing. Came across these by accident looking for a GTR grille.

yep ground coated mine first, tried the calipers polished shiny but the ground coat made it look better, buy at supercheap for 17 ea

Thanks Troy. Do you have any pics of yours?

took some before shots, tomorrow in the daylight i'll take some aftershots to post up

i deburred the casting marks off mine too. lots smoother now

hmm, true. might paint it.

I just used a spay paint with a clear coat and it came up pretty good and used caliper paint on the brakes, it fades after a few years so i had to paint them again.

if you go that route use VHT Brand, much better then others. they make super high temp clear coat to make them super glossy.

I did my R31 calipers, 7 years ago, still shiny red with polished fins and that was just paint not clearcoat too took a dremel to the fins to shine them up after deburring cast marks on them.

On another note I fking love my new car :D :D

pics or ill have you banned.

Think stock blue silvia with R33/S14 stockies and no wing. thats it, not really worth a pic :D

S13? 5 stud? interesting.

if i ever made up my f**king mind about selling, id buy an s13 or 14 with an rb.

why no love for the SR? dont knock it til you drive one.

More than likely going to buy another daily and use this for 'legitimate track work'

pfft, thats far to logical for you to actually do it.

FKING SO DEVO

There is a pair of 16 x 9 +8 wheels on yahoo atm exactly the same style as the 16 x 9s I've got now for only 8000Y. Damn I wish I wasn't pov :down:

should probably learn to stop buying cars so that you actually have some money eh? :P

If I ever sell up/someone writes it off... hello V35 350GT... would make such a good daily. Doesnt have the look of the typical Skyline so doesnt attract scumbags - blends in with the Camrys and the Commodores lol

blending with commo's is a reason to buy anything now why...?

slow day today. Ruby must be busy at work, same as Krishy, and Dan must be on another work field trip :P and scandy, sleeping?

not quite, work and chatting up the new twins at work. most fun ive had at work. ever.

by the way, anyone wanna buy a muffler? :P

Theres still 5days left on both of them, so i'll check back in a couple of days and see how they are going, with a rough price.

Thanks Luke. Can you read Japanese or do you have a better translator than google?

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
