actually i cant, thats falcon on the photo... i have to put two wooden blocks over the gutter to get r32 out... well either that or leave some fibreglass on the asphalt

but yea, i know there are even worse driveways out there...

i hate my driveway.

Apart from it being uneven bricks it has a power pole about 30cm from the driveway on the driverside pulling in , which results in some epic 3 wheeling action as my suspension is stiff as shit

and this is how it is when i reverse it in

Yeah ... I remember backing my Stagea up your driveway :D ... 3 point turn and angled to the road just to get up there :huh:

My driveway is a little tricky, but I got it worked out.

My 32 GTR came from japan with not 1 mark on the front spoiler lip with the front ride clearance height at roughly 112-120mm.. in 6 months ive scratched it up badly majority was driveways, the first couple of weeks of ownership was the worst, was scraping driveways and scraped a parking cement thingy but since then i've been careful as humanly possible

i always park 1 metre back to make sure i dont have any curb/car park bumper things damange mine. get given crap every now and then but i just ask them how much their bumper is worth and do a quick comparo

worst damage done to mine was done by a tow truck wanker that was too lazy to get out the boards. ended up taking twice as long when he finally gave in that needed the boards.

fortunately i dont have much trouble with driveways :P

Carl do you hold up much traffic trying to get in, living on a main road?

My drive is pretty flat, and the gutter section is relatively new and very wide. Also stock suspension allows me to tackle much larger inclines :P

at least you guys can get up your driveways, ours and my neighbours have a small 5cm gap between both of our driveways, no fence, and even if i go up ao a near 90 angle up his still can't get up mine. not too keen to keep trying. will post pics next time i go home.

noones driveway can beat that:

i know it looks bit wide at end, but thats no use coz there are walls at each side all the way to footpath... if there was no damn gutter in front i could get out at angle just wide enough to get out without scraping front bar

my drive way is very steep and normal cars allways nock there front bars off , council want us to pay 600 to get the curb replaced!

a cabbie once knocked his exhaust pipe off on my driveway...

$600 is a rip-off, i can buy myself $50 worth of concrete and fill the damn gutter myself if they want me to pay for it... besides gutters are their property not mine

show me the legislation that states that it is an illegal activity to spray paint in the open air.

Spray Painting/Hobbies

If you undertake an activity that may generate dust, chemical spray or fumes you are required to meet your general environmental duty.

Do not:

Use spray paint in a manner which causes the paint spray to drift onto a neighbour’s property or public land.

Use organic solvents resulting in significant vapour emissions onto a neighbour’s property or public land.

If you need to touch up small areas with spray paint this should be done in your garage with the doors closed. Large spray painting jobs should be conducted in properly constructed spray booths.

Don't have your car so low if you're so worried about smashing the front bar? Or don't put over the top bodykits on?

    • Have you flushed the initial fluid yet? It should look like a rainbow unicorn shat glitter into it. 2nd or 3rd fluid change is when you party.
    • all brand new unit from Tomei, fluid, bearings, etc. Tomei said they call it a 1.5 lsd because its 100 percent lock up under acceleration and 50 percent under deacceleration.  as I mentioned I used their fluid, install and their break-in procedure, (alot of figure 8's) but even when driving straight, or even slowly backing out of garage for first time, (at 2 mph) then driving to and from figure 8 parking lot, each tire in the rear would sporadically grab, skip, bounce, shutter and skip, shutter back a force I could feel causing clutch to slip then grab, at any speed. shaking entire car. I removed unit, since I put stock back in and all is fine, via process of elimination, its something with the lsd unit itself. I wasn't going to beat up the entire car more or change anything else for no reason as I had a feeling something in the lsd itself was wrong as everything was fine before this alone was installed and I rechecked over everything else after first time backing out I suspected an issue. I'll probably sadly already need new tires now just from trying to drive it 5 miles and performing the figure 8 break in. but if someone has any ideas I'm all ears 
    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
