Spotted that grey 32 gtr with the after market front bar now sporting the plates 'godzilla' (or a close variation to that..) this afternoon on south road.. Looked clean.

Also spotted a black r33 s1 with a defect sticker on south road this afternoon..

desperately waiting to spot a orange 33 (RB26) in the hills infront of me tho.... someone give him a 26 bottom end !!! :(

;)

spotted R34SKY on portrush road about 30 mins ago

followed by an R32 with GTR wing and "OmG cHrOmEz" on it.

spotted pete at southern hitech today :)

also a black r33 at HiTech

a couple of silver r34's on the way home from hitech too

and a white pearl coloured stag at the big BP on south rd up from hitech

if u havent realised i was at southern hitech all day :O lol

Definatly was impressed. :)

Thank you :O, that car is mine.

I am getting the nismo side skirts and rear pods painted next week, so that should complete the package. Just gutter rashed the ultra rare Volk TE37 so im not in a good mood. Going straight to extensive wheel services to get them sorted tommorow morning.

Thank you :), that car is mine.

George, you weren't parked on rundle street couple of days ago during lunchtime we're you? Saw a vspec 34 gtr with massive TE37's... sounded insane.

spotted pete at southern hitech today :O
lol Pete you picking up the pieces that John and his boy forgot :)

na, just on the bike being chased by an unmarked car with lights on and eventually sirens blazing.............HiTech was just around the corner so rode there

Spotted a Custom Light blue R33 cruising down east avenue...sounds awesome,

It had Skyline Australia stickers and i think the plate read BAD R33,

yeah i see that stopped at a deli down east tce off pt road some mornings noticed it had a SAU sticker

do tell Pete did he want a closer look @ your billet work :)

True story........he was very pissed when I eventually pulled over but after a little chat we became the best of friends (he couldn't believe I didn't hear his sirens).

He came round to my home later (while 'stylz' was over picking up some GTR parts) and grabbed a bike poster off me for the station wall!!

My boy Daniel ran to his bedroom and locked the door, lol

    • 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)
