So you just replaced the oil and it has fixed everything? :P

Sweet, that is great

the happy ending was refering to "polishing" =P will pay cash for someone to do it for cheap? :mrt:

and nah, oil didnt fix it. its booked in monday at boostworx. Infact, i think the noise is slowly getting louder and the new oil has quietened the overall noise of the the rest of the car significatly so the tapping REALLY stands out now (you can actually hear it if you stand next to the car with the bonnet down, where as you couldnt before)

its been sugested that its valve clearances and requires a new shim, but i might take it to the meet point befor the cruise on sunday just to get some other opinions.. then again, not too keen on driving it still - despite many people saying it should be fine

also should be getting new brake pads this week!! woot! some brake places are recomending i get my discs machined, not sure if its really needed tho

good to hear evythingis going well with your car =) got pics of front bar, going to wait till its completed/painted first?

Anyone watch Initial D on SBS last night? First time i seen it, and must say, WTF with all the jumping screen shots, and freezing frames LOL. Then again, I've never seen the cartoons either so wouldnt have a clue how it compares to the action scenes in teh cartoon.

Overall, average movie I think, but amusing none the less.

I have photo's of it unpainted but i think i might be putting it in the shed for its unvieling at autosalon this year maybe but still deciding on that one.

You will just have to believe me for now that it looks very nice and for anyone that is interested it is a top Secret front bar made for the GTT not the GTR one.

If you look in the bodykits section on the forums you will find it in the r34 bodykits section.

was never not going to get it checked out, i just want to learn as much as i can, i think its important to get to know your car so that you can properly maintain it. So while i was waiting for some money to come in, i figured try out a few things to see if i could resolve the problem myself =)

i think the Power FC must have been "reset" when it was taken out for compliance, and is probably the cause of the problem =P but it'll be in the hands of experts now

      Help needed issue with heater core blower and actuator and need someone to fix this and reinstall dash - 32 - Gtst

      By Duncan · Posted

      Have you got a pic of the actuator? My guess is that unit has failed internally and was flopping around, so the previous engineer who owned it forced it to be fully open to cold air (blocking the heater core path). As far as you can tell, is anything else wrong in the system? Likely you just need a new actuator (not sure how available they are) and then "installation is the reverse of disassembly"

      Looking at getting a Tesla style Screen for my V37 Skyline.

      By Duncan · Posted

      I'm happy with the Lsailt unit that I put in, it puts full Android on the top screen so you can run whatever Nav and other Apps you want, while still existing inside the factory functionality like automatic reverse cams, audio input switching, retains factory bluetooth etc. Not cheap and the install was moderate (not simple, not hard) Yours is a V36 not V37 though right?

      NC MX5

      By The Bogan · Posted

      Yeap, all the NC's that I originally looked at that had a hard top were PRHT, which makes the roof line look horrible, hence why I said nope to them My only caveat for another MX5 was it needed to have a hard top, and initially I didn't think you could get a detachable hard top for the NC,  like my NB had Again, a big thanks to Matty for helping me source the detachable hard top for my little girl, they are as rare as hens teeth in Australia, and the few people who have them, keep them Also to Greg, for initially pointing me in the NC direction NC PRHT 🤢🤮 Not mine (I really should take more photos of my car), but a NC with the detachable hard top 😁 To me, the difference in how the detachable hard top roof line looks, and how it actually follows the bodies lines, like they do on NA's and NB's, is chalk and cheese compared to the bulbous looking PRHT
