Nope. Tyre run trip is in process of orgamisation.

Scouts can do a BBQ for the day but need to know what people wants to eat i.e. burgers, or snag in bread for costing per head.

The tyre shop can do a good discount but need to know what sizes and how many.

Also thinking of doing a bulk buy for a drift tyre ( not sure what that is exactly but assumed that you would need some cheapies to flog the carp out of ) and sizes for them ( assume 17" ? )

Car wash = out :D water restrictions.

what have i missed?

what have i missed?

Not much yet

Was thinking the tyre shop at crow's nest is keen to do a bulk buy of tyres. He said he can do a really good discount on them. He also suggested a "drift tyre special" cheap, cheap and nasty apparently. So the plan might be get some numbers together orgaminise a day meet up and go from brisbane up through somerset to crows nest. Put tyres on car Scouts can do a bbq lunch for the day they just need to know what we wants for foods and they tell us how much per head. Then go back to brisbane. They tyre guy said that he can offer a discount for fitting or if you just want the tyre then he can offer a discount on that.

Thoughts ?

Only thing is the tyres would have to be paid in advance as well as the fuds.

Why Scouts? Why not just take an esky and use one of the mountain bbqs? It'd have to be cheaper, and then we could take whatever we want to cook.

Just an idea. Help out the community so to speak.

:down:

Oh ok, charity thing... now I follow.

Let me know when you've sorted it out I guess and we'll see what happens. Any update on dambusters while we're on the topic of drives?

Haven't heard anything as yet. He was off sick for a while.

if i get rego ect in time i will bring her out for a run to icecream

Sickness you will have yours back just as I get my license back :down:

The pig went for its RWC today and it failed spectacularly.

- Seat needs mod plate (Just took it out)

- Zip ties on front guard (Got some proper mechanical fixings in there now)

- Indicators don't self cancel (Need a stock steering wheel to fix this I think)

- Windscreen Chip

- Steering rack boots (Got new ones)

- Tie Rod end RHS (Ordered 2 new ones should be here tomorrow)

- Front brake discs need replacing and rear brake discs need machining (Putting my S13 stuff in)

- Engine oil leak (I'm pretty sure this was just oil spilt when I serviced it)

- Engine has a misfire (Spark plug No. 2 died so that's fixed)

- Window tint bubbled and shit (All of this is taken off now)

- Rear shocks need replacing. (S13 stuff)

So hopefully will be sorted by next weekend :S

f**k thats a decent list! how many days till your license?

f**k thats a decent list! how many days till your license?

Yeah its pretty good. I get it back on the 12th so like 6 days now lol.

Got one corner of the S13 suspension in tonight so only 3 more to go lol. The windscreen n shit will get done during the week.

Anyone got a standard 31 steering wheel I can borrow?

Will they pass it with S13 gear all round? I'm not sure. You'll probably get away with rears as they look pretty much the same, fronts are way different though.

RE steering wheel: Does your boss kit have two pins sticking out the back of it? If so, wrap them with layers of heatshrink or tape, making them thicker, untill they work to cancel the indicators. I find a couple of layers of heatshrink works best

nice one! bet you cant wait to drive again!

Yeah dam straight lol.

Boss kit doesnt have the little pins so f**ked there. The S13 stuff should be ok. It bolts up to all the factory mounts n shit so hopefully won't have any problems. I don't want to buy new rotors for the 31 shit n then put the s13 gear in it's just a waste of money. We'll see how I go.

sorry mang i don't have a stocko wheel. your 32 one might fit though

What are you doing as far as tie rod ends go? With s13 gear the R31 tie rod end castle nut won't go on properly, i imagine that will fail RWC but you never know, depends how close they look I guess. GL :ninja:

Most shops are not specialists in 31's or 13's. SOooooooooooo Chances are you'll pass easily.

You boys hsould just get a mobile roady guy to do it for you. They care not for such discrepancies

Edited by SABBAi

Yeah that's my theory. I doubt this guy would notice a difference in the suspension. If it fails again I'll get a mobile guy out to do it lol.

    • Make sure you use the spherical bushes** on the lower arms, ifyou do that. ** at least, if not the whole replacement lower arm.
    • The tap for coolant flow control will be stuck open. It's not just the air door motor that dies.
    • Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)
    • Use the GKTech subframe bush and bring your subframe 10mm closer to the chassis. You'll need to fix an exhaust hanger to suit. One of the best mods I've done.
    • You'd really have to pull it apart further to know, it least you can be confident that the one heading to the back is not connected any more. There was once a ground on the shifter seal mount too, your head unit issue could be that simple
