good to see it looking shmick finally Ali. wouldn't mind checking out those clear covers for the headlights, as I've been thinking of making my own. You should also smash out the orange glass inside the indicator (not the bubble on the side, but the one inside the indicator) with a screw driver or something... make it all clear.

Has anyone else been following the drama on NAGTROC, the admins are fighting amongst themselves and creating clones of their forums etc. Its like a techie soap opera. lol kinda makes me proud of the Aussie mentality that has kept this site strong since its conception years ago ... but yeesh, the guys in the US finally have a GT-R after so many years and they're already bringing dirty politics, drama and disarray into a newborn community. Off to a flying start. Anyways, a little offtopic, but I'm guessing most of you guys who frequent this section might be members of that forum too. Just be careful not to get caught up in the middle of it, sometimes renegade admins have been known to phish for passwords etc.

mine does it too. Only started doing it recently though... I think its an earthing issue. Then again, my power window switch is on the fritz too, almost like the contacts have worn off... so I can't say for sure. Unfortunately my alarm runs an actuator on the driver door too, so it locks both doors. Seems to be a problem only on R32's.

oh also check this page from the R31 club site: http://wiki.r31skylineclub.com/index.php?title=Body_Kit_info

aren't the URAS ones for coupes only though? if you really wanted to you could possibly adapt a 1989 corolla front bar from carmate or somewhere to fit the R31, they're kinda similarly shaped...

flat colours are the new cool. well... they were last year

you could've almost pulled this off... but noo.

I got a pair you can have for $200 shipped ono

double spoiler = instant schwing. good work.

the blow up was a chunk to show the amount of colour noise that's in the photos. Usually when you blow up a picture there's blurring or antialiasing, but no colour noise like that. the point I'm trying to make is that the colour noise is quite visible with no zoom applied. Of course I'd take a pic of the grille closer up if that's what I wanted a pic of. Yeah for 75 ISO on a nice bright outdoor setting that's way too much noise... I'm suspicious that the sensors panel's got something wrong with it. I turned off the internal noise reduction settings to capture a raw image at full quality and then wanted to do the noise reduction by hand to try and retain as much detail... might try turning it on and see if that's any better. I really wanted to do some macro shots, and that much noise can ruin those kind of shots. Night shots are a nightmare also with all that noise.

they're still processing December approvals atm last I heard. there's only 3 or 4 people who deal with the approval forms... can get a lil overwhelming.

can't make tonight... got a birthday to go to in Mill Park. Bah humbug.

lol trust Troy to say it like it is. Altho Sue at DOTARS in the RAWS team is really nice... always a pleasure to deal with.

why's it say giushu on it? lol you guys aren't in giushu.

bah, bollocks you all you bunch of whinging flamin mongrels ohhh yeah... giggety giggety. ban filters n wrex in effect.

I wasn't aware that Punchbowl NSW was around the corner from Frankston VIC your heart may be in the right place, but your methods leave us all doubting. what's th point of anonymity over such a trivial discussion.

lol I did? umm welcome!

fock the motorshow... just meet. I've already been.

you two wanna get a room? lol at the shop we use black automotive silicone (the stuff that holds your windows in and seals your tail lights. they're resistant to high heat and non reactive to water and other daily use chemicals that your car might get covered in (waxes, polishes, detergents etc). They usually come in a sausage to put into a dispenser.

I'd say Gary Rogers Nissan in Glen Waverley and Brighton Nissan would be the best suited to carry the GTR in Melbourne, they've always been the most cluey about Nissan sports cars.

I think someone with a federal job doesn't know how how state law works and where their jurisdiction starts and ends.

also keep in mind that trade plates can be used on compliance test vehicles for testing and evaluation purposes. on road tests are part of this procedure, so seeing a car on the road with a trade plate isn't a big issue. good luck to whoever at DOTARS that seems to think that they can pin a trade plate holder based on random snapshots of the car on the road.

get a big padlock and lock it to your seat belt mount on the bottom of the B pillar.

PM? oh... oh yeah... replied Yeah it does look like a write off, although if you were to replace the front section of the rail, the inner guard and the rail it might be ok... big job though. I'd say your insurance company would just write it off.

In ur steeringwheel-less car Stealin yo shiz
