Color suits the car well, that's for sure! Will yours have color matched bumpers though? Or that 90's spec grey? ...are those a pillars black? And... are they led running lights?

attention scott and colin, i won't be able to make it tomorrow night, i actually have an important meeting that i need to attend. I will organise pick up and payments later.

Scott if your in the valley tomorrow give me a bell, i pm'd you my number in faceparty

So... what's the weirdest thing people have found in a car they're doing a service on?

Today I found a dinner plate in a Barina. Just one plate. In the passenger footwell...

I've been having the worst farkin week. I read this and I lol'd like never before.

SAU can cheer a negro up.

But OT, when I was looking at XR6T's, I looked at one at a Fraud dealership, opened the bonnet and had a bit of a look around for leaks etc, when I saw my reflection down the side of the manifold with "Objects in mirror may be closer than they appear" some muppet had left a mirror in the engine bay when they were getting the engine no. Needless to say I didn't buy that car.

Sarp Mangs. Shit day is shit.

Apparently Godzilla and Heat Treatments are running at the test n tune at Willowbank on Friday night. Anyone keen to go see some 7 sec passes?

If it's a test and tune night it's free for spectators. You'll see cars running anywhere from 8 second passes to 18 second passes. All kinds of shit will be there running all kinds of times.

John, what was that tyre from? Has to be a truck of some kind... clearly?

My skyline passed it's road worthy inspection... have 2 people interested to come look over the weekend. I'm sad/happy. pinch.gif

I meant what time does it start and what time does it finish. But 8 second passes would be nice to see.

Some quick digging says that there's a top fuel drags on on friday, not a test and tune. And also that its 20 bucks for spectators at test and tunes aswell.

It wasn't on anything, just sitting there. The 155/55/R13s next to it looked like doughnuts!!

Last time I went to a test and tune it was free for me to be a spectator. Maybe they are charging because the top fuel is on later?

8 second passes are fun to watch, I was more impressed by some of the real POS looking cars running 10-11 however. Also, the old Corolla with a 20C rotor in it made me happy in my pants ;)

I was gonna say... test and tunes have never been free to watch...

    • Sorry I didn’t explain myself properly, by free revving I meant if I just floor it, it gets to 7kish and will start to break up/not hit limiter properly, off boost I’ve driven the car until near on empty. I have a fuel pressure gauge mounted in the engine bay, holds fuel pressure consistently full tank or half tank even when revving, and no the pump sound doesn't change. all the fuel lines inside the tank are fairly new but will look into it, could that also be an issue with the lines outside the tank ?
    • Yeah maybe I got a bad batch that only lasted 6 years. Or conversely maybe I got a good batch that managed to last 6 years.    Either way I have sourced a set of OEM hub/bearing assemblies  so I keep hearing! Even from life long mechanics. Apparently this failure is unheard of…
    • I am trying to understand how that even happened to the hub... wtf
    • Hell, I'm sufficiently wary of the ZSS suspension arms, let alone something like a hub.
    • Got it back home and got started pulling the hub off and diagnose the issue. Axle was stuck after removing the 36mm nut so i used a 3 jaw puller to try and push it out and... eH5FXvJ8.mp4   spend the next few hours trying to remove the axle from the remaining hub as it was very much jammed in there when the spindle sheared off. resulting damage as below R53AIy6 - Imgur.mp4   Looks like the was already a stress fracturing in the spindle as can be seen with the darker cracked section My working theory is maybe when the pinion gear exploded last year the shock put through the hub was the initial crack. Then a few events later it finally let go. Just lucky it happened where it did and not 190km/h on the next sweeper or into the hairpin The bearing/hub assembly went in in 2019 and were non-genuine "ZSS" assemblies and no nails were harmed in the process. #BreakHubsNotNails
