yay.....................the ute rattles again

D_Stirls, Nice find..

When I removed my bushes I did the same except used a drill bit popped the middle then used a hack saw to cut the outer shell. Once the shell was cut it popped out without drama.

I then used a piece of exhaust pipe and smacked the new Noltec bush in.

they sell r33 for like 280 each rotor there!

My brother (GROWLY Custom Machining) will do basic slotting (RDA/DBA straight slot design or curved slots) for around the $40 mark so remember this when you by new rotors, it might be cheaper to get plain rotors and get them slotted. He will do them cheaper again if you get a whole set done.

This is my rotors he did, something like this would be $55.

hmmmm, thats very handy! id say standard rotors would be cheaper than slotted right?

and 55 per corner? = 200 atleast for slotting.......i might work out dearer??? sorry, just thinking out loud here....

does this help :)

oohhh, where can i get a 33 gtr placard in case i get pulled over for my 19s?

as nos man pointed out R33 are dearer that price of $129 ea is for falcadoore

i see supercheap sells DBA slotted rotors, 129 ea.....would they stock them for a 33?

Matt the owner of Growly Custom Machining told me take all the prices too him and he will make sure it doesnt work out dearer how much farer can that be

Matt is a top bloke and is here for the community whislt earning a honest living doing what he loves

BTW Matt re drilled my GTSt rotors to suit 4 stud while i waited for my conversion :)

If you look at that picture those rotor have been drilled to 4 stud as they are fitted on my 180sx.

The $55 was for my design which involves more machine time that the standard sots and hence are more expensive. like i said before the basic slots are around $40 and cheaper when you do all 4.

He'll slot any rotor provided they are thicker than the minimum thickness.

    • He obviously had his reason for flipping you off. I wonder what it was...
    • Thats why I stay far, far away from Eastwood. only go there if I wanna eat Korean food 
    • I have to agree like, yesterday, I was driving down the warringah freeway towards the bridge when this jackass driving a beaten up Honda civic cut me off so suddenly it made me almost yank the wheel to avoid him hitting my car. Honestly and he had the NERVE to flip me off (or some other gesture Idk). Im a calm guy, but really some people just dont deserve to have a license, let alone be allowed to drive on densely populated roads/highways. If youre gonna cut through lanes at least use the damn turn signal
    • HPA do an interesting video on tuning, and Adrian shows on the dyno, moving from 10:1 to 12:1 (And I think even 13:1) and the power moves SFA. However, a couple of degrees of timing has a HUGE impact. Exhaust side of things will more be the length of the exhaust and how many bends and turns you have. The straighter you can keep it, the better. By a lot. Oh, and getting the diameter right. Bigger isn't always better. Going to big can actually lose you power.
    • I have to say, most people I see on the road fit the bill of atrocious drivers. Whether they be cowboys in their dual cabs, bogans in the Commodores, or the soccer mums. Pretty much most people on the road put zero freaking thought into driving. Barely look further up the road then the end of their bonnet, and have never even thought about how catastrophically wrong shit can go, by doing what they all deem as normal driving. Especially their late braking, racing to stopped lights, and sitting half a foot off the bumper of the car in front at 110km/h. Wanna know what's even better? By the time their kids get to be old enough to learn to drive, they've already got in the back of their brain what is normal driving, how annoyed you're allowed to get at people etc, and then their parents who actually have zero freaking skill at driving (Even though they constantly say "I've been driving for 20 years and never had an accident!") teach the little twerps how to drive, or should I say, how to make a car move. Literally watched a parent teach their L Plater, on a 4 lane freeway, that you just slam the brakes on, and push your way over, even with a B Double bearing down on you, and that's how you should drive, rather then, just keep going to the next exit. Same shit happens all the time for side streets etc, watching numpties pull dumb shit turns pushing across 3 lanes of traffic, rather than just go up the road another 30 seconds, and take the next turn that'll get you to the same location... Oh, and the damn right lane bandits. Or the retards driving along with their headphones in, and can't hear the ambulance or fire truck right up their ass about to run them over...   Pretty much, people drive on the road, like ego centric f**ks, and don't actually think how dumb shit their driving is, how it could easily kill them or someone else in a split second, or at the very least, how they're driving is contributing to all the shit they're bitching about on the road, like shitty congestion!
