i just had a query today i got my car from the panel beaters after a week. they just had to paint the rear bar as someone scratched it. when i got it back i noticed that the oil light come on. i put the oil in the car but the level was more than normal. the light came and went, when the oil light came on the pressure dropped suddenly , like it had a faulty sensor.

The car is a NISSAN SKYLINE R33............. later on in the day it didnt come on no more, and the engine was making a slight knocking sound, so i really got worried this just happened today. i called my regular guy in melbourne, in dandenong, who works on them, he said to stop and get the car towed home and bring it to him tommorow, as the engine could cease. i was really worried does anybody have any ideas as to what it could be. the oil light now stays on. and no pressure is been displayed. and a slight knocking sound can be heard, at idle...............any advice would be apreciated, as i was really worried about the engine. im gonna look through the manual to see if i get any ideas. i live in Dandenong North does anybody know anyone good to see regarding this close to home.

Dont drive the car

get it towed, sounds like your mech has half a brain as thats the best advice one can give.

Call Jack from Citywide Towing - 0419-877-437

And get it to you mechanic mate and go from there.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up

      You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
