So just thought i'd come in and have a bitch about my day yesterday!

I was sitting around bored yesterday afternoon because i had the day off and i thought i'd go out to fyshwick to see J Racing about getting my front bar repaired.

Anyway i left J Racing and drove up to the traffic lights which were yellow so i started to slow down. Anyway the guy behind me in an EB Falcon didn't have any intention of slowing down for a yellow light and apparently didn't notice me slowing down either. So as an end result i now have to replace my rear bar which is completely rooted. Luckily there was no damage to anything else except the boot which doesn't close properly. I'm guessing the latch just has to be adjusted.

You should have seen the look on Jerry's face when i went back to J Racing and said i need my rear bar fixed as well now!

So my guess is the line will be hiding away in the shed for a while, until i get a new rear bar, get my front bar fixed, put new blinkers in, fix my stereo and if the budget stretches far enough put in an SAFC2.

You should have gotten the guy's rego and left it on the Volvo's windscreen.

I've had it done to me, and my car still has the ding in the side. I wasn't there, I just came back to the little surprise that was waiting for me......

I got a couple of pics of it so you guys can have a look. It was decided the bar can't be fixed so now i'm driving around without a rear bar until a new one turns up. They should have just listened to me when i said i couldn't be fixed!!

Also when the rear bar was taken off i found a towbar!!! :)

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
