Myself and a few others were at WSID watchin the Top Fuel Event and I was not so lucky :/ car has dints and chips everywhere.

:(

omg sorry to hear guys, i was in the city for my job induction whole day, parked on the side street, only a few drop of rain..

:(

The Dent Man in Castle Hill does great work. But I know his phone is already flooded.

i live near him so i might goto him

im only gonna do my roof and chassis ....all the rest will be aftermarket parts...like cf bonnet, cf boot, vented fenders,cf doors (if i can source the parts...which i highly doubt it)

My car was parked in Cherrybrook at the shopping centre..

Pretty much every panel on the car is damaged, the bonnet and roof copped it the worst, and the windscreen has massive cracks all over it so you cant even see out properly.

Im in rooty hill where those tennis size hail stones came down cracking windows and denting cars, but I didnt see a hail stone over the size of a ping pong ball?

Thank goodness for that as we had two skylines parked outside plus the commondore.

anyone want to organize a paintless dent removal groupbuy thingy please???

I might try and do that through someone I know via my cousin. I'll bet he'll be flat chat for quite a while though.

I took some photos too, when I've uploaded them I'll link them to this thread. I'm only around 5-10 minutes from James' (lingeringsoul) parents' house, right on the border of Toongabbie and Seven Hills.

Man, guitar hero makes you oblivious to the world around you...

:/

anyone know how much it would cost to get a bonnet resprayed black? it's for a s1 r33 gtst

I've been trying to source a black one off the forums but they're hard to come by in that colour.

if it's not that expensive I might just purchase a different colured one, respray it and sell my cf vented bonnet

Edited by into oblivion

i work at trivett honda blacktown and every single car is f*cked here. Some of the dents are huge. And down the road a heartland holden even their showroom got f*cked.

I'm so lucky though i have to quote each car here.....nooooooot

That's crazy, I live in Pymble, and know that WRX through friends of friends that work at the same Dominoes... In fact, I saw it parked there today...

I seriously didn't notice shit... did it even rain in pymble?

Man, guitar hero makes you oblivious to the world around you...

HAHAHA ye I hear that :/!

But ye I was freakin lucky that i saw him run out of Dominos to move the car. The hail i saw there was proly around ping pong ball size...big enough to do some decent damage.

Would not hav had a clue where else to go

i saw that on the news

talk about flash storm, no warnings nothing!

A new paintjob woula been nice :P

I heard a massive clap of thunder, and that prompted me to check the BOM website. I saw the severe thunderstorm warning, and BOLTED out of my house to bring the cars in. I got all of them under covers except my brothers car when i started getting belted with massive hail stones. I was so lucky I decided to check.. Had a Lexus, Landcruiser, Patrol, Skyline, and an Outback out in the open!

My bro's car is stuffed though - every panel, half a huge tree fell into our pool, i got a cut on my head and bruises all over my back from trying to cover my brothers car...

all my windows are broken from it :D

ouch :)

...and bruises all over my back from trying to cover my brothers car...

ouch :P

Me too re: bruises.

Also got a semi-fat lip atm from being punched in the face by a big bit of hail. It's gone down a bit thankfully.

lol, how stupid are we. "PROTECT THE CARS!! PROTECT THE FREAKING CARS!!! what? If I got hit in the wrong spot I could get killed? Shutup man, I've gotta PROTECT THE FREAKING CARS!#!!!!"

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
