Spotted SXYGST twice this morning - Then my boy called me at work and spotted him too. Clean Silver 33 came through the Jerra Pub carpark at 4ish.

Now what was I doing there. Drowning my sorrows thats what. The !@#$%^&*(*) at Dickson knocked me back for the third time. The stock front pipe is 5mm too Low. Jelous is all i can put it down to.

Back at 9:30 2moro for another go. A hydraulic jack and 50 PSI in the tyres ought to give me a pass mark from the !@#$%^&*(() (**&&%$#@ )(*(*&%!

was dave there? he's a pretty young guy, and was absolutely fantastic and a few other young guys there were good too, if there are old guys there you could be in trouble, but the young guys were really good with me!

i know one guy who gave the guys at the pits a lot of trouble, being a smart ass talking down to them etc... so they drilled him for everything they could find. a big part of it is respect, if you treat them well they will do the same(in general)

i dont know if nick and ewan will remember but when i was going through getting my car over the pits a while ago, i put a big post up on another local forum saying that my dad was taking the car in and saying it was his etc...and i was saying how clever i was and how dumb they were, turns out one of the guys brothers was a member of the forums and told them all about it, the guys at the pits thought it was hilarious and gave me soooo much sh*t about it, and that they do read forums etc....anyway they all laughed about it, were very kind with checking the car and wished me well.

Guys keep in mind that some of the people from the pits -DO- read these forums (was talking to them about it when i went over) and some comments might make them pick on you some more :D

anyways, spotted gunmetal r32 gtst on lanyon drive in queanbeyan, gave a sort of finger/wave/hey thing and then realised i probably looked like a retard :)

No I was good, honest. I took the rejection on the chin. No smartarse remarks and was very sensible and polite, all three times now.

The gents who selected the defects and knocked it back were the senior ones and one was the boss (Roy). My cars very very tidy and alot safer than most new cars. 5mm too low with two big fellas siting in the front. She passed QLD RTA in October of this year as it was. The front pipe is dead stock and so is the Zorst Jayce lent me.

I no complain, maybe a little, but it appeard to me to be overzelous and I sincerely beleive it's because its an import or they have been asked to go hard on our cars.

Child restraint clips "actually" fitted. Not just the threaded holes like your Brand new this years model anything which just has the Plugs in em. Now come on!

dang i thought i had it hard when they nocked me back for not knowing the weight of my car :) at least that only took me 20 minutes to fix up but yea they seem to pick up on some stupid things though which i am sure 95% of others would let slide. oh well they can afford to be tight arses we dont have a choice in who we take our cars to.

i would have walked past on my way back to the library after my lunch break, but i don't think i was being suspicious. did he have a black blink 182 shirt on? if so it was me being freaky, otherwise someone else is a freak

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
