Collectively with your friends you have almost enough standard parts in your respective garages to build another car or two.

When your suburban neighbours give you daggers as you drive down their street at 20km/h under the speed limit, wondering if they are going to report you to the EPA

When a highway patrol cop drives straight past a VB commodore doing 110km/h (in reverse), with no rego or plates, and full of rust, four bald retreads, pissing out smoke, with a driver that's consumed a 750 of Jack Daniels and is high on pot, uppers, downers, inners, outers, blue bombers, green goofers, horse tranquillizers, cow immobilizers and asprin....to defect you for an exhaust 2dB over the limit and the car being 1mm to low :D

aaahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahaahahahahahaha

you know when you own a skyline when u just speant 6 hours cleaning and detailing it on sunday then spend another 4 hours looking at it

When you have to buy your wife her own skyline so she doesnt drive yours!

When you buy an R31 wagon to run to the shops in so your beast doesnt get "doored" in the parking lot.

*Puts hand up* Guilty of both! :D

when you go shopping for a new family car, you make sure you get one that can have an RB engine in it, just in case you get a spare one, or so you can bolt on hand me down parts from your skyline. (R31's, cefiro's, laurel's, stagea's etc)

lol i got one of these the other day. i was doing 40km/h in a 50 zone and an old guy walking along the road with his wife stops and stares at me driving past, and then in the rear view mirror i see him shake his head and keep walking -- wtf? :D

You know you're driving a skyline when your insurance premium could feed an african family for 5 years.

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
