Howdy...

I got this email from Film Australia, it sounds pretty lame, but TV is currently totally obsessed with reality shows, and there is no shortage of people who want to make themselves look like dills in front of the entire country, so if you fit the bill, then this could be right up your alley.

PLEASE don't contact me about this, I have no involvement with it, and I have no information other than that which is provided below, I'm just the messenger here.

All relevant contact information is provided at the bottom of the post.

To Whom It May Concern,

We are currently producing a documentary series for SBS TV all about Growing Up Male in Australia. It explores the major life stages, rites of passage, turning points and transitions in boys and men's lives.

We are very interested in finding a 'car mad' family to feature in our first episode. Ideally the family has a teenage son who is about to get his drivers licence or has just got his licence and owns his own car or uses Dad's car. Perhaps dad is a bit nervous about his son getting a licence and perhaps dad is giving his son driving lessons....the story will explore what the car sub-culture means to the boys and men and explores a kind of rite of passage, when the teenager gets his licence.

We are hoping to film at the end of January or beginning of February. We would like to find families who are in Sydney or NSW - if possible. If there is a fantastic family who live interstate, we could consider travelling.

We would like to film the family restoring or tending to their car, racing it or driving it. Going to car shows, rallies etc.

Do you think you are able to put us in touch with some families to talk to initially, with the possibility of filming with them?

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Kind regards,

Nicky

      My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.

      Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway

      Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.

      I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.

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

      Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
