Boost contoller and wheel spacers, If he didn't find those he would of got me for to low and front window tint anyway. The Cops son has an R32 so there was no chance of him missing anything.

Just got terrible news. Anyone hear about the train crash between the car and train yesterday? I knew the girl. Sad sad news indeed, only 23 and was going away for the weekend to celebrate her birthday. To come to such a grizzly end... words do no justice. Please keep her family in your minds if you have a spare minute and your prayers if you beleive.

Thanks guys :P

yeh sucks... there hitting everything and anything they can!! maybe its money for the motorsport complex?? hahaha yeh right!

What do they need money for the motorplex for, no one is asking the government for anything other than approval to build. This is how the government has got the general publics back up about the building of the track by giving the impression that these hoons are asking for millions of dollars to build a track, which is not the case.

Got pics of your new wheels Matt? Are you coming to poker at Burger's next Friday night?

Hey Andrew, sorry mate, I took too long to do everything I had to do this afternoon, so missed out on getting pics during daylight hours :P Here's the best I could do under the lights of the garage and a Sony DSC-T200 point and shoot:

Very sad to hear about the train/car accident too, so young :happy:

heh great minds. i had one of those a couple hours ago, but i also had fried mushroom in butter, fresh parsley and a slice of cheese to top it off >:happy:

and runny yolk ftw

Well for the first course we had the following:

3 slices of toasted bread

3 eggs, sunny side up

250grams of bacon

smokey bbq sauce

So, double decker b&e toasted sandwich packed with all the good stuff.

This was followed by half a dozen Toohey Extra Dry Platinum, various spatterings of Jim Beam Black, Johnny Black, Jim Beam Single Barrel, Jack Daniels, Jamesons 12 y/o, Johnny Walker Green, Apple Tequila (direct from Tijuana), Amaretto (direct from Tijuana), Giesen Sauvignon Blanc, Woodstock Botrytis, Seppelts Gewurtstraminer, and finished off with some of my current fave red Pertaringa Understudy Cabernet Petit Verdot.

Various 8 ball games ensued.

2nd course consisted of:

2 slices of toasted bread

1.5 eggs well done

150grams of bacon

smokey bbq sauce

Followed by various Wii games.

Result = win :P

Nice wheels, good fitment and plenty of dish - I like a lot Matt!

Thanks Andrew. Didn't want anything crazy in terms of fitment, so stuck with mild offset and width. I did want reasonable rubber on the thing though - R888's provide more grip than I was expecting!

Really impressed with the new QFM K750 pads too. Switched from Greenstuff to the K750's and what a difference straight up. Did a bit of bedding in and ran some kays on them today and then hit them hard. Even with the braided lines, slotted rotors, and fresh RBF660, I can tell the pads are the big improver.

Really liked the sound of your arvo too mate :P

I run the R888's and the QFM A1RM's at the track and boy do they work well. Im very impressed with both.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
