i would have stopped for you babe x

MADAZ FTW!!

stopped for my car when i broke the first trans (well the missus finished it off haha)

saw a bayside blue 34 gtr drive past me near shadow park last night around 9-10ish!

Been seeing a white R33 parked on XXXXXXX avenue in Glynde very often.... guessing the driver works their? Next question is wondering if they are on SAU?

edit: please don't identify parked cars by street name as it directs potential thieves to their exact location - suburb will do. Nightcrawler

Spotted a guy in a VP commo follow me into a service station this arvo, wind down his window and tell me how much he loves my car, and asked me how much would I sell it to him for. I said it is not for sale, but in the end everything is for sale at a price :P

Spotted Black R34 4 door P Plater on the parade about 10 minitues ago....

Undertook me pretty aggresively.... Stagea left him for dead off the lights no worries at all. Procceded to get looser's fly-by couple of hundred meters down the road, over took wrong side of road well over speed limit, with pretty close on coming car so cut infront of me and procceded to punch it spraying the front on my car with loose bits of shit from the road..... :P:D

And we wonder why we have such a bad name...... :(

ey i saw this guy aswell... oh wait i was in the passenger seat :huh: btw he had a full sick custom made terminator sticker on the back.. deff gota invest in one of they for the stag... (thumbs down)

Slightly dissapointed this guy hasnt owned up yet and Yes Ive seen him since then......

well i spotted my car at all type this arvo... and it no longer looks caved in!

in fact its almost finished lol, will post a pic soon but they got the whole dent out, no bog :P

Sweet. Good feeling i bet. How's mine looking? They/he started on it or they been busy with yours? Got all week to do mine so doesnt really matter when they start it.

Also today i spotted a stock black 33 gtst in my work car park. Was very clean. Had adrenalin (sp?) rims and WPI xxx on the plates. Was about 4.45pm. As i said, very clean.

Yeah they started on yours i believe, mines sort of a rush job because im good mates with hayden and allan, and i need the car running for this weekend's drift comp at lala. i know it kinda sucks from your point of view that i pushed in line and you want your car back on the road but fear not. they will have it done in no time and you can be rest assured with the quality of their work.

Yeh, makes sense. Doesnt really bother me, dont have a licence atm, so if its not done, its not done.. Can always pick it up a week later, but im sure it will be done by this saturday.. Kinda missing it with it not being out the back and seeing it every morning LOL

    • OK, Step 3, if you need to remove the valve body, either to replace it, the TCM, or to do a more complete drain.  First, you need to disconnect the TCM input wires, they are about half way up the transmission on the drivers side. One plug and the wires are out of the way, but there is also a spring clip that stops the socket from sliding back into the transmission. On my car the spring clip was easy to get, but the socket was really stuck in the o-ring of the transmission housing and took some.....persuasion. You can see both the plug to remove (first) and the spring clip (second) in this pic Incidentally, right next to the plug, you can see where the casting has allowance for a dispstick/filler which Nissan decided not to provide. there is a cap held on with a 6mm head bolt that you can remove to overfill it (AMS recommend a 1.5l overfill). Final step before the big mess, remove the speed sensor that is clipped to the valve body at the rear of the box.  Then removal of the Valve Body. For this the USDM Q50 workshop manual has a critical diagram: There are a billion bolts visible. Almost all of them do not need to be removed, just the 14 shown on the diagram. Even so, I both removed one extra, and didn't check which length bolt came from which location (more on that later....). Again it is worth undoing the 4 corners first, but leaving them a couple of turns in to hold the unit up....gravity is not your friend here and trans oil will be going everywhere. Once the corners are loose but still in remove all the other 10 bolts, then hold the valve body up with 1 hand while removing the final 4. Then, everything just comes free easily, or like in my case you start swearing because that plug is stuck in the casing. Done, the valve body and TCM are out
    • OK, so if you are either going for the bigger fluid change or are changing the valve body which includes the Transmission Control Module (TCM), first you should have both a new gasket 31397-1XJ0A and a torque wrench that can work down to 8Nm (very low, probably a 1/4 drive one). You can probably get by without either, but I really didn't want to pull it all apart together due to a leak. First, you now need that big oil pan. The transmission pan is 450 long x 350 wide, and it will probably leak on all sides, so get ready for a mess. There are 24x 6mm headed bolts holding the pan on. I undid the 2 rear corners, then screwed those bolts back in a couple of turns to let the pan go low at that end, then removed all the middle bolts on each side. Then, undo the front corner bolts slowly while holding the pan up, and 80% of the fluid will head out the rear. From there, remove the remaining bolts and the pan is off. You can see it is still dripping oil absolutely everywhere...it dripped all night.... I got another couple of litres when I removed the pan, and then another few when I removed the valve body - all up another 4l on top of the 3 already dropped in step 1.
    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
