Spotted today a maroon RS4 with RS FOUR on the plates, was parked near the grass oval in the show grounds, then saw ya drive past us and turn down a side street, very very nice. Also HESLO 'poser' parked in the show grounds, love it, looks a whole lot better in the flesh. Whats with the plates on it.

And last but not least, *flick* and Luke looking at the GTR at the motorshow. Very nice car, im saving as of now. Went back there later to see if they had shirts or jackets like the holden cars had, but didnt have any :thumbsup: Saw ya's taking photo's of it again haha

Haha, what's this poser park business :thumbsup: Just parked where I could that's all. At the time there was an NSX next to me so I thought at least he'll be careful when opening his doors. The plates are still WA plates as I haven't transferred rego yet, probably in the next week or two :yes:

spoted RSFOUR also today.. stoped and had a little chat to him seemed pretty chilled nice lookn stag... also saw a 34 and "cosmo" driving around today looked pretty mean! while im back to 3 18s and a stockie again... :@ fkn pirelli P zero shat it self for the 2nd time in 3 weeks :D

I think i saw Grim (Ben's) Silver Stag today at salisbury intersection.

And im wondering if anyone spotted me and my car pulled over on anzac highway next to west tce, or saw me in the tow truck with my car on the back today :D

^^what happened?!

and yeh its ok heslo :D I was bit the same after seeing the GTR. Saw it in the first few mins i was there and was like yep, can go home now, seen all i want to see.

Seen blksky - bixby? On west tce bout 4ish this arvo, wouldnt have seen us tho.. in stealth mode in the ford lol

Also a black 33 (i think it was black) on west tce not long ago, around 9:15 - got a huge wave out the window, guessing they on here? Didnt recognise the car and couldnt see any plates on the front? Got a wave back to you, not sure if u saw.

and pretty sure it was dnbutts car parked on side of anzac raceway this arvo around 4ish?

flick, yeah i saw blksky as well, drove past me while i had my bonnet up. Well my clutch or selector fork is gone, not sure which until my mechanic pulls gearbox apart. :blink:

that happened to me not long ago in my 32... snappped the pivot ball off, and blew the slave cylinder seals to sh*t. just hope that u were lucky like me and that any bits n pieces floating about in ur gearbox dont do damage.

good luck mate :)

spotted a yellow r34 going down mcintyre rd this afternoon when i was finished work,

yesterday spotted a black r34 gtr turning down the road that goes to the brickwork markets, then later that afternoon spotted "mr r34" i think it was yellow r34 with nismo kit.

flick, yeah i saw blksky as well, drove past me while i had my bonnet up. Well my clutch or selector fork is gone, not sure which until my mechanic pulls gearbox apart. :rofl:

Hey Damo, yeah that would have been me, i was day dreaming and noticed a white 34 just before i pulled away and wondered if it was anyone i knew! lol! Busy rushing around doing last minute wedding plans for this saturday so my heads all over the place! lol!

Spotted this morning at 7.20 going north along East Ave in goodwood a blue R32 GTS't lowered with black rims, saw ya going across the tram line, well heard ya then saw ya. I had just crossed the road near the tram line and looked around after i heard ya. I had the Nismo/Nissan jacket on. Waz it anyone on here?

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
