rob77,

Nah, Hicks can't speak english, he barely manages to drool. His parent dropped him on his head when he was a baby, I'm surprised he's smart enough to keep breathing.

He obviously can't think for himself, when people say "Hick's go do a burnout man!", he just says "Uh,..OK!"

Just kidding Hicks, well sort of.:slap:

See'ya:burnout:

Hicks,

I think you and I have lost complete control in this thread, oh well nobody else will be reading it by now. But seriously I'm sure some of us can hook you up with a good tough clutch, relatively cheap, and then you can be on your way again.

Do you run on full boost at the drags? Octane booster?

See'ya:burnout:

Yeah full boost!

And I had some wynns octane booster in there, because it was day time and quite hot. But I think the stuff is shit.

And also I saw on another thread you said that you heard that lowering the pressure in tyres doesn't work, but I recomend doing it. I'm pretty sure it helps.

About 20psi, and I filled the fronts up to like 45psi.

I've also been told that doin a burnout on a street tyre before you race makes no diference, but today I started off with no burnout and was spinning first everytime. Then I smoked it up a bit before hand, and ran 13's.

Back on thread and there are sad bast**rds like me reading at this time of night.

Go the single plate brass button sprung centre with uprated pressure from ross at Autoclutch.

So far I have recommended about 6 guys from here ( GTR's and GTST's have used him and I've had 6x GTR , 300ZX TT and rex clutches) off him with no prob.

Yeh yeh, back on topic...

Peer pressure's a bitch for Ben!

he didnt want to do the burnout first, but then we all egged him on... all the while he was saying was "nah, my clutch is f*cked, i shouldnt" then when the clutch started smokin instead of the tyres we all cringed and said "heh, what do you know he was right!"

Sorry Ben!

Rev210, How much did you pay??

Do you have a photo?

Dude check this thread out, got the pics. $330 for the clutch plate I paid. Don't install yourself, putting the gearbox back in is more pain than the $250 for labour.

Yeah thats the one i will be going for! I was quoted $600 fitted but didn't gtstvspec say he could get good deals on clutches?

are you able to see if you can get a better deal for SAU boys?

Also is Macka still running standard clutch? I still am and as a result have to launch quite nicely.... hence the reason while no quarter mile times..... after nect couple of engine mods are done loks like the next thing will be the clutch!

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
