Spotted Jayce and I deciding on which way to beat up Mick after seeing him with the neons on in Braddon  :mellow:

I'm a big fan of neons.....but dude! we could see the tubes, which ruined the effect! just hide those tubes and it'll look sweet ^_^

Yeah I know thats why I dont turn them on much! Was it just the rear one you coud see?

The others should be o.k. I brought them from America, because all the neons here are week and crappy! So I found the same ones they used of 2 fast 2 furious movie!!

G'day Mick!

Unfortunately,Veilside and I could see nearly all of the actual tube under the car. I'm personally not a fan of neon on such a tough car,but it's not my ride,and car modification is such a personal thing...Maybe hide 'em a bit better? Yours rates as one of the best 33's I've ever seen,and this small blemish wont change that!

Similarly,the 34 GTR that isn't RH9 but has a harlequin paintjob too;not my thing,but all in all a tough car(spotted it at Jerra's shops earlier today,too). Whereas the silver 34 GTR with the dished Jap' rims and tough 'zorst not on Saturday night in Braddon made me reach for a box of Kleenex...

yeah, i must say i think that if they were just hidden they'd look awesome, as i Jayce and I were saying to each other yesterday, we have very differing tastes on what we want to do for modifying e.g. Jayce is more subtle whereas I'm the bells and whistles kind.

You just need to hide them better and they will look awesome, I'll certainly be having them on my new project.

That was me, I went past him right before this epic tale unfolded....

“…..and so there was a 2001-esque model M3 sitting next to the rattly old Skyline, approaching the Duntroon adjacent roundabout. And so the pilot of the M3 decided that he would demonstrate the mighty roaring power of his wealthy executive intended Bavarian form of transport. And so he squashed thine loud pedal into the thick carpeted floor upon exit of the now navigated roundabout, sure of his $140,000 ticket to M-tuned superiority. Much to his total dismay, the near 16 year old red and silver bucket sat next to his finely tuned piece of German engineering, until the electronic engine revolutionometer limter was approached at the loud end of both vehicle's "power spectrums".

Not that this kind of behaviour is condoned.... but there's no way in hell I was going to pass up that opportunity :)

(Truth be told from a standing start he'd probably smash me with all that launch control gadgetry)

Yeah, I don't get to see other liners much, other than the very weak ARM85 who's too scared to even take his line to the nats (its soft, like a whale :P)

aah but therein lies the catch. very few of the SMG-equipped m3 owners will actually use this wonderful electronic do-daddery. you can't use the launch control more than 3 times (the computer logs it) before your warranty is voided. how incredibly stupid is that!!! a $146,000 sportscar that they wont let you drive as its sposed to be driven!!!! *grumbles*

spotted a bloke in white 32 gtr today. stickers on it. guages on the pillar. big kit. stock 32 gtr rims and a clearly audible multi-plate clutch at about 2pm. fyshwick.

drove right up to him and flashed and honked and waved etc and he was all very un-inspired by the whole thing. bloody non-sau snobs.

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
