Just a warning to anyone about the storms in/heading your way..

Just started to hail in glenmore park region (penrith).. so if it starts to rain get your babies under cover..

Im sitting here watching it hit my car :( dont look to be very big but its a heavy downpour, so they are hitting with force.

edit: just went out to have a look, only lasted a few minutes.. about the size of a 5c piece when u put 2 together.. no damage that I can see :)

Hmmm, I just heard thunder, and I'm in Toongabbie. My car is outside because I was out earlier and have to go back out again soonish, but unless I receive a phone call from the mate I'm supposed to go and see, I might put it in just to be safe...

wow you guys got off easy..... had 15-20 mins of non stop hail here in castle hill, they were double the size than those balls of styrofoam you get in beam bags and stuff....

They were small but they were comming down in the bazillions with a force to match, my street looks like europe.

(oh and the skylines overinsured and at my house so it might be convenient of it hailed lol)

here are some pics

as you can see we are at one of the highest altitudes in the sydney metro area..... maybe why we got hit harder as the hail storm clouds try to get over the hill....

    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
    • Sounds like a misfire. Check fuel pressure and don't even think about going into boost while it's like this unless you enjoy engine rebuilds.
