Hi all im a newbie here, met all of you at the Hawker formal tonight! I was in the Silver R33 Gtst SII that Sxygtst (jon) used to own. It was possily my biggest "Spotted" when I cleared the crowed and drove round to find about 10 (maybe more) hot lines' parked lining the exit! (all of you guys) So thanks to SINISTA (richard?) for introducing me and I look forwardto cruising with you guys!

Anyone spotted me recently? Silver R33 GTST SII? Stock apperance but loud and frequently sideways? I cant get a pick small enough to use as my Avatar!

Spotted! me driving like a grandma because my cluctch slipped to the point where it revs whenever you put your foot down! hooray! booked it in with Ed, looking at $1000 for a new Exedy clutch installed, apparently slightly better than stock. I'm not a lead foot so it should do, but ouch! $1000 so close to christmas! i could cry!

Yeah, i was reading it last night. I knew my clutch was on the way out so i was looking at my options. I'm just going with what Ed offered. I need the car back as soon as possible and this will be the quickest way. Maybe not the cheapest, but hey, I trust Ed to do a good job, and if that means i pay an extra $100 or two on top i dont mind.

But thanks anyways. Oh and that reminds me, i owe you a drink sometime for a certain thing you did to a certain Falcon. :)

Integra Automotive in lanyon drive in queanbeyan (at the mobil servo just past the fixed speed camera after jerra).

Or you can call on 62329329

Im sure he would be relieved to just do a normal service instead of working on mine and sinistas car, hes probably sick to death of both of them by now :)

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
