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.

holy f**k, someone post some boobs, quick, this thread is going OT!!

:) 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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
