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

Yeah I have a daily, but sometimes I get sick of driving it lol. The only time I got behind the wheel of the R32 on the weekend was to reverse it in and out the garage lol

Here is what colliding with another motorbike at 80kph can do to your hand:

Spending $350 on gloves pays off. Could have been alot worse ... a broken hand/wrist instead of broken and bruised fingers.

Working/typing one handed sucks :)

Ahh the only joys of working in a factory 3/4 empty now is the storage space :) Cars under cover and outta the rain/hail...whats the bet it hails on the way home though? f**king washed it yesterday as well....

You northern boys, what do you do with your car oil after you've done oil change?? I've got like 50 odd litres that i've gotta get rid of!

paid for my oil cooler back on 12/08/2009, the guy has been sick as with a chest infection, and then he said he will post it on 11/09/2009, no correspondence since. Hes a moderator so im sure im not getting ripped off, but just getting impatient!

Tip it down the sewer or leave it on salisbury highway somewhere.

nah just playing :) there's somewhere around you can legally dump it for a fee i believe.

were currently building a collection at my house to get rid of in bulk.

Wish my hand got off as lightly as yours Ruby when the bandsaw at work took a bite out of it:(

Yoicks! :) Powertools are evil.

My pinky and middle finger are bruised, but I can move them. My second finger got pretty crushed in the impact ... its purple and black all over. Was as thick as my thumb yesterday, but most of the swelling has gone down now. Its just numb constantly now ... no pain, unless I bump it or try bending at the knuckles. The fracture is between the knuckle and finger nail, so there's nothing that can be done to it, apart from keeping it out of harms way.

The gloves are brilliant and offer maximum protection (same stuff as what the MotoGP boys wear), but the tips of the fingers are still only covered in leather only. At 80kph it isn't going to be 100% protection anyway. :)

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Victory · Posted

      All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.

      It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.
