must hav to do with jealousy i think... also i think alot of ppl are under the impression that skylines are vry expnsiv cars or something i dont know.... jsut pisses me of to se stuff like this

i think the hammer leaves a mark like that cos the pressure is in a smaller place... if u hit a car door with something bigger say a foot or something or even ure backsidee the dent can become massive... i just hope some of these silly people get caught..highly doubt it, for now my car is getting used only wen it feels safe =[

Not sure that could be a hammer,

Cause hammers will rip / crack the paint off but its a big dent so needed some force wat ever it was!

Try DING KING they might be able to pop it out but u will need to get the car pudi / painted

thanks for all your repies unfortunately i took it to a panel beater its not just a pop out job the little groves in the quartey panel has been dented in i was told it not that easy to pop out my dent but luckly its not too bad on $$$$ and i get to touch up all my inperfections in the paint in that area but i will be shopping for the best price and a good quality job

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
