My car is always under cover unless I am driving it :) . For some reason I thought you lived Southern Dion haha.

Love hearing epic thunder

Haha nah Im like a MAX northie lol.

Yeah my car is 99% of the time undercover, except when Im at the winery. Even when I work at BIGW I have undercover parking :)

I don't daily mine anymore so its under cover untill the weekend, some times I don't even get the chanse to drive it on the weekend lol.

Off to the crash repairer today to get the front 1/4 panel chabged with brand newy and sprayed, from when that bitch reversed into me haha

Yeah I have a daily, but sometimes I get sick of driving it lol. The only time I got behind the wheel of the R32 on the weekend was to reverse it in and out the garage lol

Good to hear your car will be all fixed now :)

Hope everyones Skylines are under cover. I live north of the city and its getting darker, raining heavier and fairly loud thunder too...

Im am spewin!!!! No cover for my car at work and i gave my car massive clean on sunday :)

lol sounds like mine, just depends whats going on the weekend. generally though i fill up on tuesday n go for a lil short drive everyweekend just to make sure nothing go's stale from it sitting for too long.

Here is what colliding with another motorbike at 80kph can do to your hand:

Spending $350 on gloves pays off. Could have been alot worse ... a broken hand/wrist instead of broken and bruised fingers.

Working/typing one handed sucks :)

Ahh the only joys of working in a factory 3/4 empty now is the storage space :) Cars under cover and outta the rain/hail...whats the bet it hails on the way home though? f**king washed it yesterday as well....

You northern boys, what do you do with your car oil after you've done oil change?? I've got like 50 odd litres that i've gotta get rid of!

paid for my oil cooler back on 12/08/2009, the guy has been sick as with a chest infection, and then he said he will post it on 11/09/2009, no correspondence since. Hes a moderator so im sure im not getting ripped off, but just getting impatient!

Tip it down the sewer or leave it on salisbury highway somewhere.

nah just playing :) there's somewhere around you can legally dump it for a fee i believe.

were currently building a collection at my house to get rid of in bulk.

Wish my hand got off as lightly as yours Ruby when the bandsaw at work took a bite out of it:(

Yoicks! :) Powertools are evil.

My pinky and middle finger are bruised, but I can move them. My second finger got pretty crushed in the impact ... its purple and black all over. Was as thick as my thumb yesterday, but most of the swelling has gone down now. Its just numb constantly now ... no pain, unless I bump it or try bending at the knuckles. The fracture is between the knuckle and finger nail, so there's nothing that can be done to it, apart from keeping it out of harms way.

The gloves are brilliant and offer maximum protection (same stuff as what the MotoGP boys wear), but the tips of the fingers are still only covered in leather only. At 80kph it isn't going to be 100% protection anyway. :)

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
