Heya,

Just thought I'd say a big hello to all at SAU Vic...

I haven't been reading the forum since the middle of 2005 when I sold my (slightly damaged) R33. It's nice to see so many of the old faces still around, as well as so many new.

Might see you around in my 350GT Coupe (I don't care what you say, it's still a Skyline! :dry:) when it arrives in a few weeks.

-Max

Maximus!!!!

Nice car on the way mate.....what happened to the dreams of a GTR?

Ant,

I decided I wanted something nicer on the inside and newer. I drove the G35 in the states and loved it.

Are you in Melbourne again??

Lol by that you mean to say that your testes were removed and placed back in your mums handbag....

...only j/k mate :( Nah they are a nice unit and I can point you in the direction of people who have fitted supercharger kits to them :blink:

Yep been back in Melb since March last year. There has been talk of another temp contract OS but nothing has eventuated yet.

My testes remain firmly attached thank you very much. If my mother had her way I'd be driving a Corolla.

And yes, I have been eyeing a few different FI kits of the SC, ST and TT variety. I think I will spend my money on some handling mods first, and learn to drive properly this time, before I go nuts with the POWAARRRRR (by which time I'll have an R35 anyway) :blink:

MAX!!!!

Hey mate, long time no see/hear. Glad to see you back in a Skyline (well soon anyway). Would love to have a look at one close up, as i have only seen them from the outside. Hope to see you back out on the roads and on club cruises.

All the best :P

Pfffffffffft......... I think you have lost count ;)

I remember we had this discussion when i was SAU VIC Vice Pres, and i could tell you that was more than 2.5yrs ago; let alone how long your car has been off the road for :).

There are some members like Saff (Alan) that have never seen your car on the road since they joined SAU :P

I pulled the car off the road in Dec 05 for the conversion. Im sure we've had this convo a dozen times now... :P

I'd just moved out of Bundoora, it was near my birthday, and thats when the Rego expired & i was fully EPA'd. All 4 things that happened Oct-Dec '05!

2.5 years unless my maths is wrong, cant argue with the dates when its printed on my old rego sticker and EPA notice ;)

I think Max needs to take us all for a ride in the G35 (not at the same time of couse) :happy:

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
    • That's not very Toyota of the Toyota!
    • Bringing an old thread back to life Looking to put some new front shocks in the r33Gtst and the KYB still look ok for a road car. Unless there are any other options aroind that price $200 a shock?  I’d like to replace the strut tops also, is this the correct KYB no. For the strut top, KSM7124?  https://www.sparesbox.com.au/products/kyb-strut-top-mount-ksm7124?srsltid=AfmBOoq-HDru8wSlLnQrhU9gCw_uYdKg8gUQzONY-EQOdnI5iXOWEUjY 341287 appears to be the front KYB shocks part no.  thanks all
