THAT STUPID ROAD GOING THROUGHT THE ARMY BARRICKS!

omg.. and just over the bridge.. shit.. that f's my car up like a mofo

I got a friend living on that street...

And they actually fixed that road once... Then they had to rip it up coz of the new houses contructions.

The worst is down Anzac pde, between the franklins shopping and the Maroubra rd cross. Going towards lapar.

It was once very nice. Damm all these constructions around the place.

I just got back from having the front windscreen replaced in my work hiace van. Had a couple of tiny tiny tiny stone chips at either end of the window and then afew months back the council had to re-tar a 1ft wide section of a road I go along on the way to my work depot each morning. the section that had the new tar was about 2 inches higher than the road and their was no choice but to hit it doing about 60km/h. So 2 of the stone chips resulted in 2x 30cm cracks in the screen :D

Since then the council came back and scraped it back so it's level with the rest of the road, idiots!

Luckily it was a free insurance job.

i dont know if any of u guys driven on pittwater road on the northern beaches, this long stretch of road is a piece of crap filled with potholes, and uneven patches of repairs.

majority of it is not even tarmac! its slabs of concrete sealed together with tar, so if you got some stiff suspension your be bouncing in your seat for a few km's. i drive the backstreets just to avoid that crappy road

My favourite is still driving towards Campsie on Parramatta Road (the one right next to the clock tower) - that place is horrendous for pot holes! But after seeing my ex for 2 years, kinda got used to the bumps and learnt how to navigate through it...

Yes, Pittwater road is an absolute bish as well... always sounds like you've got a flat spot on your tyres (all 4 of em :D)

Another one that's really bad is coming into Rockdale from the city, not really pot holes but just a series of ridges on the little bridge, makes the car jump all over the place.

Suspension = TEIN HA Coilovers with damper on setting 16 :D

    • This is what I could find on Minkara which has at least something on pretty much anything to do with the Japanese car industry. Yoshikiyo Fuji president of Fuji Dynamics memorial service review in August 2009 (at the time of his death): https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/380062/blog/14461568/ The Fuji Dynamics drag R33 GT-R was revived in April 2014: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/781303/blog/32964763/ Fuji Dynamics drag JZZ30 Soarer: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/380062/car/287607/1548806/3/photo.aspx#title Fuji Dynamics BNR34 GT-R: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/300083/car/195676/609329/5/photo.aspx#title Plenty of Fuji Dynamics parts are still in use over the years on many cars, particularly the stainless steel exhausts, twin plate clutches and CPUs that can be seen in Minkara: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/search/?q=フジイダイナミクス&c=101&st=0 I also found a mention in Carboy magazine about the BNR33 GT-R drag car from 1999. It had all HVAC including A/C still fitted (A/C condenser and radiator were moved to the boot) and it ran a 9.7 sec quarter mile. Somewhat of a legend among GT-R and drag enthusiasts then and now. If you're wondering if it was a reputable shop, then yes it was. 
    • Are you guys familiar with this shop? Sounds like you might have come across Fujii?
    • @Rezz our resident japan guru!
    • Hey guys I’m looking to buy an r32 gtr and it looks like the shop who’s done some work on the motor was done at Fujii Dynamic in Japan. Looking to find if anyone is familiar with this shop since there not much info I could find.    All I could find was the owner has passed away early 2000s and had previously owned a 1000hp r33 for drag racing. 
    • GTR front looks good. If you don't like it, I'll swap you a rolling shell R33 for it. Give you a fresh base to start with.
