@ Dan_B:

I sent ERD Dan a message asking about the filter for the 4WD system. If I can get one do you reckon we can fit in a flush/clean/top up on car day?

@ Colin & Martin:

Continuing on from Thursday's discussion. After reading through some more threads I've decided I will keep the 20, and aim for 300HP (all wheel, and not Brandon spec). Then if I wind up buying a Z32 I might convert the Fo' to 25 or bigger. Will this stop you having nightmares about VGs?

@ Andy:

What was the name of that RB management system that you were raving about a while ago that allows you to run without AFMs? Could I use it on my 20? And will it handle what I just said to Colin & Martin?

@ Tristan:

The bulbs that were in Katy when you first got here weren't stock were they? The purpley ones? What have you got in there now? I was wondering if they were the same lights I used to use in the Capri. I had some really good ones, if they're the same (got a pic of the back?) I'll dig out the old box and let you know what they were.

P.S. Can I come for fun drives too? <3

P.P.S. Can't beleive you dogged Michelle :P

@ Jason:

I knew you'd cry if I didn't address you personally, so hey mang *tips hat*

@ Geoff:

hey geoff!

:(

@ everyone else:

What's crackin' mangs?

It's 0530 and I'm so effing bored... Gotta go to Ipswich today to get my new squeaky toys :(

yeah figured as much

you can't see a f*cking thing with standard bulbs. THEY should be illegal, and HIDs should be compulsory

Yeah standard ones are shit compared to HIDs.

I can see just fine with mine :(

Colin's are good too...

Mine are good compared to driving with parkers on. That's about it lol.

<3 all good mang

Will probably get rid of my night terrors yes.

Next week, say mid week?

German club dinner and beers?

Someone make it happen

Interesting proposal. Make Tuesday midweek because I'll be in Brisbane already.

Good morning!

300HP out of the 20 should be pretty easy. Will only stop my nightmares if I don't ever have to do any work on the Z32.

Vipecs are good. Can't remember what system Andy was going on about, but I think it was more for SRs than RBs.

I vote yes

P.P.S. Can't beleive you dogged Michelle :(

Who's Michelle?

@ Jason:

I knew you'd cry if I didn't address you personally, so hey mang *tips hat*

Defect cleared :(

And I fixed my rattle gun :(

Cop that cleared it was almost as much of a douche as the guy that booked me. Complained because all 4 bulbs weren't on for low beam (wtf? High beam bulbs should be on for low beam?) and said the headlights weren't standard. Eventually cleared it but.

Now to waste half an afternoon putting my wheels back on and HIDs back in :P

      RB gearbox options

      By rbs30 · Posted

      What is the go to gearbox these days for a RWD RB? Back in the day VG TT boxes were cheap and strong. Seems they are as expensive as an RB25 box these days. What are the options without remortgaging the house?

      Rim help

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Define "Nissan big brakes". You just mean standard R34 4 pots? And...it's not even the offset you need to worry about. It's really a detail of how much clearance there is between the caliper and the back of the spoke/face, which is affected more by the design of the spoke than it is by the offset. If you think about it....take any wheel, say a 19x8 that does fit and clears the caliper. Then add or subtract an inch of wheel on the outside, without changing anything else. You have changed the offset by half an inch, but not changed the clearance situation at all. Same for if you add or subtract an inch from the inside edge. The way for you to work this out is to take a wheel off the car, grab a straight edge and a ruler or two, and start to measure the distances from the wheel mounting face on the hub to the outer face of the caliper, and the outer diameter (that faces the barrel of the wheel) of the caliper. Armed with these dimensions and any other measurement that grabs your fancy while you are there, you can then go to the seller of the wheels and do the reverse measurements from the wheel's mounting face and see if there will be clearance to the caliper. There really should be. I have 17x8 RPF1s +35 clearing the caliper face by a finger tip. Those wheels do have pretty thin spokes with some curvature.... but then so do most wheels to suit Jap cars.

      Rim help

      By Notorious Skyline · Posted

      So I’ve got a r34 sedan that I managed to get green stickered, meaning I need to go through government approved wof station for my car to be allowed back on the road for some reason my car is certed for 19x8 rims.. I need these wheels  does anyone know what offset will be fine to clear Nissan big brakes? I saw 35et for sale near me, I can’t drive the car to test fit or risk being fined ..   I searched heaps online couldn’t find anywhere..

      Okay, with all that being said about sloppy blowing from twins, I happily acknowledge the superiority of a single turbo setup on the RB; however, I still plan on double trouble.  I know the -9s were quite popular for some time because they seemed to meet that sweet spot between the -7s and 5s, would introducing VCAM and/or stroking to 2.8L provide the additional displacement/flow to push twins closer to the 500-600 goal?  Does it make more sense for a daily to just do an engine overhaul, slap some -7s on it and enjoy a bit more reliable power?  Has anyone driven a mine's overhauled and tuned engine?  I know they certainly don't approach the power numbers that you drag monsters do down under, but for daily street usage, I just want it to be fun and healthy.
