hihihihih, i am looking at ahouse at 4:30, should be back about 5:30 dinner, and so forth, yeah i should be able to make it, might have the little one with me though, and the missis.

Oh i forgot to put the DISCLAIMER in there about you not being invited and for everyone else not to tell you it was happening :ninja:

Well if they are with you it means you dont have to get the permission slipped signed so thats a bonus, and it will be good to see the little guy again :happy:

See if Uncle GMB can corrupt his little mind earlier than normal :(

he's already corrupted, come on hes got me for a father. LOL. his first word was CAR/BIKE and i AM NOT JOKING.

:happy: the force is strong in that one!!!

i'm keen

:(

Be a long drive though and i dont like your chances getting there on time :ninja:

Hay guys, gona seee if i can make it, i have a bit of work to do at home now, on teh car as always. Anyway if i can i'll be there but no promises. But i recon it would be good to orgornise a once a month meet or something.

    • I have too much trauma from every skyline I've ever seen having crushed jack points/pinch welds lol.    Yep, works 100%, it's what I use when I'm using the quick jack. Don't know why I can't also bring myself to do the same thing when I'm using a jack. I blame the skyline PTSD. 
    • The pinchweld is fine, even with a trolley jack, so long as you're not actually pushing on the pinchweld itself. More to the point, we shouldn't talk about lifting or supporting on the pinchweld, we should talk about using the sill "jacking points", which just happen to be adjacent to the pinchweld. I just have dense rubber blocks with grooves in them for each of the chassis stands and the trolley jack, that I use at the sill jacking points if/when I have to lift/support there. They put all the load onto the steel pad of the jacking point and not the pinchweld. As intended.
    • Makes sense.  I would do something different if I felt like there was a better option. Generally the only other area I'm happy to jack on is where I want to put the stand. The pinch weld is not an option for me for either the jack or stands, so very limited options overall.  Plus never having had an issue with doing this, has kinda reinforced in my mind that it's fine. I'd do it on any car without a second thought these days lol. 
    • I know on some cars it's explicitly endorsed in the service manual but a lot of them it isn't which is what gives me pause. I know a lot of cars also have you jack up the car by the radiator core support which is a lot easier to get to than some crazy deep section of the front subframe. I'm just reluctant to find out if any of that is really safe to do if not listed in the service manual. The FK8 has even the R-chassis beat in this regard, the front subframe jack point is almost fully behind the front tires and is surprisingly recessed into the car.
    • I've been doing it for longer then I can remember and on pretty much every car I've owned without any issues.  Jack on a tow point (or under the rear diff), jack stands under control arms/other beefy suspension component is my go to if I'm not using the quick jack.
