Hey everyone, The electrics in this car just baffle me. First, my tacho jumps all over the place randomly, then it just stops working, then a few minutes later it'll start working again - but obviously the actual engine revs are fine. Then, my right parker light stops working yet the bulb is fine (tested it on the left parker) but then, after a few days of driving, it starts to work again? Then after a decent drive over the weekend, my digital clock (which has never worked) decides to turn on and work! But then, 10 minutes later, it fades away!! What is going wrong here?! Is there anything I can check (apart from fuses or loose cables)? Is it all related to something?! All 3 of these issues happen randomly. I haven't had any electrical work done on the car for a few months now (had the parker switch replaced a few months back). Any help would be appreciated! Cheers Daniel

That sudden stop was crazy! I was roaring up, trying to keep up with the bunch and next minute, I come flying around that blind corner to see everyone banked up!! Hooray for decent brakes!

Yes black rims with a red stipe on the outside from memory? Sounded crazy!! Loved it! Charmaine, loved that conversation we had down @ Newton shopping cente

Spotted that Bayside Blue R34 GTR twice on Saturday! Once in Christies Downs and another time at Pt Noarlunga. We keep waving wen we see each other! Car is in amazing condition.

List: new turbo-back exhaust to fix the collapsed centre muffler + dodgy cat steel-wheel and highflow current ceramic turbo's remove minor dents from the car and have a full respray get new rubber seals for the outside along the windows interior retrim get a head unit that actually works brake upgrade ah the list is huge...

Awesome cruise guys. Something ended up happening to my front left disc brake after having to slam on the brakes on that blind corner (sounded like I warped the disc or something), but after that, I just took it slow! Pads and discs are due for replacement in 5000k's though, so they're on their way out. That white 33 with the screamer sounded crazy! Great to see some great looking cars! Love my 32 - mate, hope your 32 is okay after blowing that hose!! Fingers crossed it doesn't cost massive $$ to fix. Lovely RAA "Yep. You've blown a hose. Want a tow?" Fantastic to see that their 'mechanics'. Cheers Kellie and Chad! Was great fun.

Yeah spot on Kye with the oil pressure. Same thing with the GTR - when it's bone cold the oil pressure is around 6 or 7, then drops to a nice 2 at idle and 4-6 at normal driving.

Ah! I see! You country folk are lucky! haha

Lol does your driveway lead to a dirt road? Loving those rims. P.S. I can see you're doing your bit to save the Murray, with washing your car with A HOSE and ON THE DRIVEWAY :) Lol

I hate the 3 Call Centre (the phone company, 3) Ah! All super hard to understand, due to the call centre being in some form of hut in India!

Tell me you're joking, Ruby

It slowly leans off topic...

I like that Jetty!! Damo, I hope you're sarcastic

Spotted a Silver P plater Stag turning onto Honeypot rd. I gave a wave, got a strange look in return. Stag sounded awesome, though. Also spotted a 32 GTS (couldn't see what colour - was pitch black and could only see the rear lights!) going down Elizabeth road in Christies Downs!

I agree to agree!!

33 GTR grill looks great on the 32!! There's someone in the trader section on here making them. Gone with that venitian blind look! And no, I have no idea how to spell Vinetian!

Maybe if you can claim someone has stolen just your engine? Or if you had a large tonne of bricks fall onto just the engine? I have no idea.

Yeah Vu, I hate those type of hoodies!! They're cheap to buy, look cheap, and have stupid pics on them (like the dope plant). And 13 year olds are wearing this crap! Well, it's the new Dada/Phat Farm/Ruff Ryder/Snoop Dogg clothing phase I think!! Remember when Dada and Wu-Tang were the 'in thing'?! Hahaha

Maybe they thought I was going to burst it or something? Hmmm... but I tried at least 3 or 4 different companies, and they all told me the same thing!

Lol Chef. I'll be on the market soon for N1's, too. Either that or I steel-wheel and highflow my tiny ceramics!

Myspace is blocked here, Fishpaste! So is facebook, youtube... the lot! At least SAU isn't yet! Phew!

Hahah Fishpaste, I beat you in the Government ISP speeds

That's right! I hate the monster tacho's on rubbish cars. Next thing should be altezza lights on Lancers! And then Evo bodykits on Lancers! Ah! And then, Betty Boop seat covers. They're horrible. Disgusting.

Seems to be happening alot lately. There was a defect station on Honeypot Road the other night (Southerners will know this road!). Weird to have it on this road! But they were defecting anything and everything! But then again, they did defect this Suzuki Swift with... a 5" monster tacho on the dash... Sigh. Is there a need for such a large tacho on such a car?!

kelly Molly, PK? Steve, Telstra simply wont touch it! I used to work for Kaz, and when I mentioned I was with them, they seemed to change their tune! But apparently it's just not possible and they've said "wait 5 years and then talk to us" Hahahaha 5 years and I'll be out of that place! Or in 5 years, we'd all be running Fibre
