Ok sled or any moderators please watch this thread as it is only an option/suggestion not a debate :banana:

I was sitting here having a debate with my parents about this whole car accident and recent ones.. now to those who decided to turn the other thread into a debate about everything other than paying your respects this does not include you.

I suggest those SAU members on the sunday of the funeral we chuck on some black ribbons to the cars with a small cruise to where the funeral is held as a sign of respect and a speedy recovery to the 33 driver. Some may have not known either but who said we cannot show unity and respect at a time like this?

Decent comments welcome, but you want to argue this.. leave now.

Fristly, this is a duplicated thread. One would question the logic of appearing in force at a funeral, after all there are going to be a lot of upset people there that may not appreciate 'high performance imports' at the funeral. If you want to rock up, fair enough but I don't think that this is something we should get involved in, unless we want to start a precedent of doing cruises for every car related fatality for every dude out there (no offence but he wasn't even a member of SAU - so why would I want to pay 'respect' for someone who was doing something brain achingly stupid?)

ok cheers, delete the thread and then have the idea somewhere else. Like someone said in the other thread and ACCIDENT is something not caused on purpose.. doesnt mean you cant pay respects to someone for losing the life.

Sure, if you know them personally. Its a bit weird to rock up at a funeral uninvited when you don't even know the bloke.

I dont see why SAU as a club should be rocking up to some dudes funeral at random when he wasnt even a poster. I sure as hell don't want to associate myself with that sorta stuff.

Otherwise we may as well join hands and sing kumbaya while holding placards 'wont someone please think of the children' at every opportunity

ok that post was fine till you decided to add "Otherwise we may as well join hands and sing kumbaya while holding placards 'wont someone please think of the children' at every opportunity"

Someone delete the thread already?

Well it reeks of the bleeding heart brigade. Just cause someone dies doesn't mean anything. People die every day, you don't see us doing charity cruises for them.

guys, no more threads please ....one is all that's required.

The thread that I locked was open long enough for peeps to give their condolences but it got to the point (after many warnings) where it became a ramble about Rann, tracks and stupid drivers.

and yes, the last thing the grieving family would need right now is a bunch of unknown Skylines crashing their time of mourning.

sometimes we can be very sincere in what we do, but at the same time be sincerely wrong.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler?

      Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed

      the top black section is bonded to the silver section with some form of rubber. I assume to isolated NVH from the box

      Plan B? Get someone to machine up a metal bush/collar/whatever it needs to be to replace the rubber? I haven't had a close look at that part recently to have a proper feel for whether that's possible. But it might be easy.

      I do not want to install a short shifter and the only other stock throw shifter I have seen is the Nismo "Rigid shifter" for $290 So plan A is to fill it with sikaflex to stiffen it up and hope for the best
