Well today my car got side swiped while i was at uni by what looks like optimus prime.

Bastard didn't leave any details, which shits me as i'm up for replacing 2 doors and a rear quarter panel. Luckily, however it was on a common-whore not on a skyline but give it a week or two and it could have been :D .

Second bit of bad news car was going to get sold this sunday.

Just thought i'd rant on here for some sympathy from strangers and optimus if your reading this F U.

So he said whjen you get the doors get back to me. 20 minutes later i came back with doors should be fixed by wednesday. total of 1250 repaired and colour matched. Sad thing is two people with cash offered to come pick it up this weekend. Oh well it happens

would anyone here actually leave there details if they hit another car, assuming that know body else saw you, i'm sure most of us would just drive off.

Unless you hit some bomb of a car.. Or someone you didn't like.. maybe drive off

Otherwise leave a note, right thing to do.

Shouldn't have to worry about it anyway as it doesn't happen often.

I can see why he didn't. And lets face it we all would think about driving off.

It's alright hopefully this whole Karma thing will work out and one day he and his whole family will be driving down the road chanting "o'doyle rules" and there will be a banana peel and those of you who know billy madison will know how it ends.

I course I'd leave a note. People need to be responsible for their actions.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
