  1. Get back to your holiday Gav Anyone else an admin that can look after this for you?
  2. sounds good. can't wait to see pics and well done on making your own guages. i wouldn't have a clue where to begin.
  3. thanks for that. interesting read. you've mentioned culture and seem to talk about boost guages a bit. i've been in the rice scene and the v8 scene. obviously ricers love their jap crap and as with most things coming out of japan it is good quality. lots of variety in products as well but most of it seems to be aesthetics and useless gadgetry. maybe it's just me but i tend to think the more stuff going on the more of a chance it has of breaking down. what do you mean by bleeding the liquid filled autometers? how do you do that? are they that terrible? again, excuse my ignorance, but i don't understand why so many race teams use them (and no, i highly doubt it's sponsorship when there are so many involved) when as you say they are so innacurate. :/ do you have pics of your 'Z warning centre'? sounds interesting.
  4. what's better about them? are they more accurate? easier to read? more info? also, why do race teams with budgets beyond our reach use autometer if jap stuff is better? i'm sure they use jap stuff as well but not as much afaik.
  5. autometer sport comps suit the dash well.
  6. welcome to the boards hope you find your piece of the Z pie.
  7. check your pm
  8. is this the RB30?

  10. welcome to the forums pics or ban should be a rule for newbies. saves us the hassle of hassling
  11. it's worth the trip. there are other cars besides the z's. even old motorbikes. there's also a fair on so you get food, junk shopping and some kiddy rides maybe.
  12. Welcome Michael

    this might be a little bit out of your range but well worth a look. http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php?topic=1575.0;topicseen you might find that you will need to travel to get a good Z. then again, you might be lucky since melb has a fair few. much more than any other city.
  16. hi i'm not a huge fan of anime but i do like my cars and racing so i've seen all of the Initial D and ejoyed them. this one is a kart racing anime so i thought some of you, the younger lot maybe , might enjoy it. it's called Capeta and features kart racing and a bit of F1 from what i've seen. below is a small taste. if you want to download all of the episodes and watch them in order you can find them here: http://a.scarywater.net/ae/ - you need to grab the 01-14 then 15-36 then all the individual episodes up to 45. from episode 36 onwards you will need to download a codec called CCCP and that can be found here: http://cccp-project.net/. if you need help with anything let me know. enjoy. episode 29 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kubcB2BKXQ&mode=related&search=
  17. new motor ay...? don't make me chase it out of you. what have you done? you had a rover 8 or is my memory failing me? why don't you start a new thread and share pics and some words on your build mick?
  18. hello fuzzy. welcome to the boards. can't wait to see pics and hear all about your rebuild. hope you enjoy it.

    welcome to the boards and good luck with finding a 240. maybe post your location and budget to better assist us in helping you find one. also maybe include if you want an original or modded one. cheers
  20. hey mick, i can answer that one. the engine was 'replaced' from the one Alex built but even that one wasn't injected. we did keep the block for numbers/rego purposes but everything else was turfed. if i had to do it all over again i'd choose carb. again. i'm not sure what you're after with your engine but why won't you consider carb?
  21. welcome ot the boards
  22. looks the goods. love the paint
  23. nice! if i were you i'd do one massive burnout till they pop (tape it of course so you can show us) and then get some fat tall wall rubber. looks like you have the room.
  24. why did you do it sooley!? oh the inhumanity *sniff*
  25. haha! love the plates
