this might sound dumb....are the terminals on the battery and have good contact.

hehe yea ive made shure the terminals have correct contact.

ive checked the fuse box and ive noticed that im missing one of the larger fuses "initiate" or sumthing, the 2nd from the left. is anyone else missing this? n also y wud a car just lie there dead? would it be because either the alternator or starter engine is dead? no ignition lights even come on when the battery is fully connected =\

ok is it betleigh east or brighton? i punched up auto electrician into the vacc website and these puppies came up but i dont know which one ur refering to...

its on east boundry road, so it would be bentliegh i think!

tell him one of the boys from gloss recommend you if he asks who, tell him nathan, guy with the grey skyline, white wheels B)

If you get no ignition lights, then you have no battery power. How do you know the battery's fully charged? Does the engine crank over? Does your stereo still work? Is the clock still working?

Or maybe a fusible link has blown.

yea ive charged the battery n checked it on my corolla, nothing goes on.... NOTHING. =)

think ill need sumone to check it. u think the boys from the bentleigh auto will come down to my place in keysborough if i pay them?

i dont know if they would come down, a, get jack to tow your car there, or b find a mobile sparky, have you got racv care? they will come, just act dumb

Give me a call at home tonight - 0421 331 954 - and I'll wander down to your place tomorrow with a multi-meter and other stuff.

ahhh shat sry dude, i ve had the grave yard shift the last 2 days n havent been tending to this thread... is the offer still on? ill somehow repay u if u can help me out =\

Offer is always there - just might have to wait until next weekend now. One evening (except Mon / Tues) might be OK.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
