I had a sky blue 1978 280SEL Mercedes a while back. On a trip to schoolies week the air con started to leak and made a lake on the floor of the back seat. After that it was known as "the blue lagoon". Also got the handle "beirut bus" as it's the style of Merc you see in all the beirut military movies like Delta Force.

My s14 used to be called Syl (how original!)

Now I've got a MY00 wrx. Any ideas what it's nick is? Rex or Rexy (once again - how original!) Occasionaly gets "it" (my plates are my business' name "I.T. twentyfour 7" = IT247)

I've found that all my cars have also responded to "baby", "piece of $hit!!!!" and "biatch" too.

Oh yeah, almost forgot, also had a 97 magna a while back (well was really my parents, but who's going to complain about a free ride?). Got named boomer as I had a habit of cleaning up possums in my neighbourhood with the bumper :P

78 V8 kingswood (beastie) I called it this after an old jetro tull album "broard sword and the beast" even had a sticker on the back, people still refer to it today as the "beastie" even though I sold it more than 10 years. Strange...

70 buick electra (pimp mobile) very deserving name if you saw it, very big pillarless car, 455 big block with big fuel bills to match. plenty of room though, even with 8 people inside.

74 Chev Impala (Detriot locamotive) Only 400ci this one but it still did 140 mph!

MEGA

skyline GTS-4 (Licence remover) It does this well.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
