Im buying a house next year with my partner and one of our main requirements is that it has a garage!!!

At my current house theres a car port but i can never park my car in it.

And i live in boddington at the mine camp most the time anyway so i just bought a car cover for it to protect it from evil gold dust

ModYourCar have a car cover that doesn't touch the car I think...lemme see if I can find the linky I saw before...

there ya go...seems quite expensive though, not sure how sturdy it is in a strong breeze.

just read it, says it's usually for indoor use, so maybe no go unless you can secure it.

There are so many faults with the above car cover.

It says doesn't touch the car but it touches the car when putting it on and taking it off so it will scratch the car if any dirt is on the car. The cover also touches the ground and rests on the ground when he is folding it up which will then get transferred onto the cover and then onto the car and scratch it when putting it on/taking it off.

My car lives outside but I got a car cover made specifically for it which is fully weather resistant and really soft on the inside for only $220, went through the whole winter and car was not affected at all by moisture, wind or anything.

P.s - still sucks to have the car outside but not for long as moving to a new place with 3 car garage so 32 can go indoors and rendering my car cover useless.

    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • 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
