Hi all..... so went camping fri + sat nights. Mates forester GT ran out of fuel out near kenilworth in pitch black at like 9pm fri night and none of us had reception. Took about 2 hours to get that sorted. We ended up sitting on the side of the road with him having a "few" beers while our other mates went and got some fuel hahahahahaha.

f**kin scary... we were basically in wolf creek lol

Shit day at lakeside today :)

Got stuck in a group with a bunch of sunday drivers, first session got about 2 half decent laps in, the rest were all stuck in traffic.

Second session I came through under the bridge too hot, did a 360, and then slid into the wall. I actually thought I'd managed to avoid the wall but just slid into it on the grass:

Pulled it all apart when I got home.

Guard. Could probably salvage it but not worth it, I'll get a new one:

Bumper reo got a bit bent but nothing that would stop it being used:

Filler panel also got a bit of damage but again, nothing to require replacing:

Headlight glass survived, a bit of paint to get off though:

All the mounts are cracked though. Hopefully I can get this fixed at a plastic welder or something. Don't want to have to buy another projector:

On the bright side, the body underneath it all looks straight:

So I'm probably just up for a guard, front bar skin, and some painting.

Andy, I might need to hit you up for you painter friend soon...

here's a video from session 1 of the couple of fast(ish) laps I got in:

at about the 35 second mark is my lakeside drifting :)

@Andy, does your mate do other panel work besides painting? I might need my front bar plastic welded and cleaned up before painting, and a couple of vents fitted, reckon he could do that?

marto looks awesome!

epic hand control while skidding :cool:

Boy's got skillz :P

ps next saturday we're finishing it :P

Haha, I may have to prioritize now. Its OK though, I'm sure Dan will help you out ;P

Sucks about the acco, when you want to get it in let me know! Im pretty sure he doesnt plastic weld but can get it organised at a decent price

Cool, I'll hit you up once I've sourced some panels...

At least it's not too bad though!

Could have been worse...

    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
    • I use FCC car launcher. It has an option for different backgrounds, so instead of turning the screen off you can swipe 'up' to a black screen with no background/icons. (mine has the time on it only). It's kinda nice. Also lets you use gestures to say swipe to go to next song, etc.
