A lot of you guys & girls may not know this [or even read this] but I just wanted to post a message about my late Father [r.i.p.] who passed away on this day 3 years ago [5/4/2000].

I mainly wanted to say that I am thinking of him.

His death was a direct result of a car crash, which happened near Laverton North area. He loved cars and driving.

He always knew I wanted a skyline too - its just unfortunate that I never got to take him for a cruise in it or let him have a drive. [i only bought the car 4 months ago].

Whenever I / we go cruising I think of him and wish he was around. Life is short - enjoy the ride.

I only posted here on this forum because its car / skyline related, hope I havent posted in the wrong place.

Looking forward to the next cruise - whenever that may be.

May the |down|force be with you!

Dale 5/4/2003 @ approx 0700.

Thanks again guys it means a lot to me!

It's mainly through what my father has taught me that I can cope with his death effectively. He was a great believer in the philosophy "everything happens for a reason" and I for one agree with it.

its wierd when that happens, you don't think it'll happen till it does. I lost a mate to meningacoccle late last year. He used to kick back with us, go out with us n stuff, esp drink up with us.

Its just wierd when you get to that point in the conversation and you know he's not gonna say sumfin any more, and you can't do anything about it either.

It mus be wierd having something you're so proud of dale an you're sure he would be too but... just not there. Life goes on...

Yeah shan I know what you mean, there has been so many times that I needed help with something [even little things] and I have thought "I will call and ask Dad" knowing that he knows an answer to a question I have, then I realise I can't. It is frustrating and upsetting.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • 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
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • 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.  
    • 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?
