sorry to hear of your car Carl

i had the same thing happen to me 2 weeks ago in the camry power steering stopped and i couldn't turn, i stopped the car mid way through a corner and turned it back on all was good lucky i was in the back streets

well i just crashed the 32 a lil bit

got out the driveway, and noticed the squealing of cold belts slipping wasnt stopping, so i pulled over and had a look. what i thought was the air-con belt had jumped over one spline and was sitting on an angle. so i thought i would nurse the car around the block and pop it back in the shed....

this belt turned out to be for the power steering pump, and when it went i coasted gracefully into a stobie pole and munched my passenger wing mirror cos i could barely move the fkn steering wheel. it took me 15 min to get the car 1/2 a block then in the driveway to the the round the back. i could have crawled faster using only my tongue.

**** note to self..... remember which is power steering, and which is air-con

had the same thing happen to me mid corner out near lobethal a few weeks ago , except it was a busted line :domokun:

RIP To your mate matty

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

:) Looks like I need to start a tax thread... j/k.

Speaking of tax, with relation to cars, our window identifier codes in one of our programs at work are shown as RBxxx, so you get RB025 for the main screen and RB026 on another one.

I HATE ITUNES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
