and

it had a nissan VG30 in it.... asked the mechanic wtf it was for and he said that it was a drag racing sand bike

never heard of that before. next time im there I'll see if I can take some pics.

Spotted a nice silver 32 GTR in the back street's on the way home from work. Also anyone that works in hidmarsh near the stadium own a silver R33GTSt with FMIC custom plates, and also a white 32 with a new FMIC installed and a new addition to that street, a stag lightish green colour. See them everyday while on test drives for my repco service center.

around 8.30 on greenhill road spotted a bayside blue R34 GT-R... then about 10 minutes later saw another bayside blue r34 GT-R turning from Magil Road onto St Benards road.

about 8.50 spotted a black over grey HR31 Coupe on Gorge road

Calsonic14u, you don't live down south do you? Pretty sure i've seen your car parked outside a house with a few other imports round the corner from my mates..

Spotted a decent white 32 on beach road about lunch time.

Yah mate, i live around the corner from the junkfood corner. Yah there a few imports around this area now. My gf owns the silva veilside supra thats in the driveway with mine. A guy up the round just brought a silve/grey R33 s1 and a purple GTR R33 is round the corner on Pimpala rd. Also seen a white GTR and a yellow s1 R33 round the area :):)

    • 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  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
