Hi All,

After the SCC06 QLD Skyline Cruise on Sunday, I had a look at everyone's cars and heard some stories etc... And thought, how good would it be for people to be able to publish their story of how their car got to the stage it is now.

So, yesterday after a bit of looking around and not finding anything other that personal sites people have set up to show the world their unique and individual machine, I registered www.mycarproject.net and plan to make it into... well, a lot of things really. You would be able to blog (I hate that word, but thats essentially what it is) the entire history of your car, document your mods, upload pictures, journal its path from how you got it, to how it is now, comments / mini-forum - topical discussion. Another way I think of it is like a myspace for you car without all the gay yuppie shit (Not that there is anything wrong with being gay) .

It is in no way limited to a particular brand or model of car, although it would allow searching for a particular make/model/year/engine type/size etc... And I want to give people the ability to show and express their interests in their own car. It is not an open forum like SAu, however it should have the ability for other people to express their interests in other peoples cars etc...

So, I'm just after your thoughts on how you would think this would go and what idea's you think would be good to incorporate. I also emailed PranK about creating something similar for SAU only.

Let me know what you think,

Dave

Yeah, I was thinking more of a structured modification history / blurb about each thing you put in there. So you talk about what was done at the latest tune, what things were found / what you tried and the results. Not just. Tuned to 200rwkw.

That way you can sort of timeline the history and changes made to your car. But anyway, I will just turn it into my personal 34 project site.

Cheers,

Dave

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Did you panel beat the dents or have you tried to repair this only using filler?  Is your sanding block soft/flexible and is following the shape of the panel rather then just knocking down the high points?

      I haven't knocked them down yet. I think I made the repair more complex than it should have been. I had rock chips combined with waviness and dents and I tackled it all in one because it was near each other and just end up wasting a bunch of bog lol. I'll knock down those areas and see how I go. And yep what you are saying at the end is correct. I think I might be sanding the top of a steep hill then my sanding block falls into the dent and gets rid of the guidecoat if that makes sense. Though shouldnt unless I'm covering too big of an area with not a long enough block. I'll try something new and provide some updates. Getting there though! Thanks as always.

      Yeah makes sense, hard to comment on your situation without seeing what your doing. I was talking generally before, I would not be looking to randomly create low spots with a hammer to then have to fill them.  It's hard without seeing what your doing, it sounds like you are using the guide coat to identify low spots, as you're saying the panel is still wavy. I don't see how you're not ending up with patches of guide coat remaining in a wavy panel? Once the high spots are knocked down to the correct level, surely to have a wavy panel you need low spots. And those low spots would have guide coat still in them?

      So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
