Hey guys,

I was at the meet on Thursday, the one with the 32 4 door.

Just to note, it was Destro the white R32 GTR that kept stalling... not me =)

Have to come again sometime and try get to know who is who properly.

Cheers,

Yet another day in paradise.

Handing in my resignation tomorrow. Gonna go look for some mining work either up north or out west.

+1 Let me know what you find, want to start after xmas

+1 Let me know what you find, want to start after xmas

I have already done some mining end of 90's start of 00, so just seeing if there is anybody left at mt isa that I know that can swing me a job

otherwise having a look around rocky etc, or worst case scenario, there is a fair bit of work over in WA. Just trying to avoid going back there.

I might go back to sleep :)

No Thursday nights free for a while however :( got one off in three weeks however, and made sure I have the day off for the SCC.

And so it begins. Another week of shit. At uni yesterday and I had 18 missed calls :domokun:

Same here... BN renewal, domain+hosting, car rego, car insurance - it's depressing seeing mail from these all on the same day :(

Cameron's body shop did a buff on my front bonnet about a month ago... yesterday I found out all they did was polish it to hide the swirls after I gave the car a wax/polish strip wash :(

Shit loads of their buffer swirls have shown up lightly in the sun. Only on the bonnet luckily where they buffed.

Any recommendations on swirl removal products (Not hiding them)?

It's just my bonnet. I have an orbital buffer but would much prefer a hand job...

smity42 - thats what she said

Cheers for any advice guys. me = :(

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !
