someone ran up the arse of my nubira....

i let my bro in law drive my nubira now that i dont use it much anymore and got woken up at 8am this morning to be told that some twit in a lexus ran up the arse end of the car.

dont know all of the details... but that thing has had a hard life for a 4yo car lol. First i was practicing handbrakies into a car park and misjudged one... scraped the $&*) out of the side of it :) then i avoided running over a possum casue it startled the shit out of me and put it side on into a ditch and stuffed the front left suspension... now this :D lucky my bro in law is a panel beater... spose i am too. Hopefully it was the other dudes fault otherwise im going to have to pay for the excess... bye bye 225s i was going to get from pred this month... bye bye cooler piping... bye bye front and dump pipe :P

doh.. screw the car i want my wheel money :P j/k

if its an ass ender its ALWAYS the other guys fault..

Somebody did that to me in my R31 skyline a couple of years back.. just sitting there on londsdale street for ages, and BANG some goose ran up my ass. Of course the damage was fixed, but its just the hassle of not having your car for a couple of days and things like that. Its never quite exactly the same either, unless that area was bit dodgy in the first place.

      Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing

      I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
