Yes well it isn't too bad. the person who hit my car while it was parked in Preston took off... leaving a 10cm inflextion on my rear bumper just under the right stoveplates.

The bumper has also come off on the right hand side by about a cm (probably the mounting has come loose from the impact or sumfin.)

The paint's cracked in the area and the plastic has sorta gone in in a shape which sorta looks like either the corner of a car or a bull bar or sumfin round as hit it in just one spot. The paint's chipping off, but the plastic dosen't look like it's cracks or fractured... jus inflexed by about a cm.

Dammit...

**** them dirty motha ****er

shit man

sorry to hear about yer car monkey

at least they didn't loosen yer wheel nuts so later on yer wheel falls off while yer driving

did you have a pager alarm?

cos my friend's parked car was hit in the parking lot but his pager alarm went off and went running into the carpark and found the culprit, a 4wd.

this is why i hate mutha ****ing 4WD vehicles!

it happend to mine last week... luckily it wasnt as bad... they probably had more respect for it as its a GTST :D:D

but yeah pissed me off... back left has a nice big white scuff mark.

meh, jus had a closer look at it... the rear bumper isn't too bad, should sand out and with another coat should look the business...

but the real damage is to the bracket underneath... in one way i'm lucky the impact was right on the bracket, preventing the bumper from breaking. But the bracket is dented out of place (causing the bumper to come out a bit). I jus have to take it off and i guess flex the bracket back into place and it should be all good.

Does anyone know how to take the rear bumper off, and if the bracket that holds the bumper is part of the chassis, or if it comes off? Since Sam has a full black R32 GTS with a proper bumper I might grab a bracket off it or sumfin like that might be cheaper than gettint he bracket unbent.

I also found a yellow mark on the bumper... so looks like i either got hit by a taxi or a yellow car.

    • I did basically the same procedure on a ZF6HP but the reason to pull the valve body is to replace the seals between the valve body and the transmission which are notorious for leaking pressure with age causing poor shifting and burning out the clutches. If you just wanted to exchange all the fluid you should be able to undo one of the transmission cooler return lines to drain into a bucket while using the pressure filler to keep it topped off. 
    • The title should have posted "EFR7670 exhaust housing selection RB26" I can seem to edit thr title on my Android.
    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
