Spotted Trozzle's car parked on the road out the front of Gentech in mitchell yesterday arvo

Yerp, was getting engineer's certificate at Canberra Motor Works. Unfortunately didn't get it due to a few things (one of which is worrying lol), however shouldn't be hard to fix up. Unfortunately I foresee having to cancel the rego on my car before the lack of defect clearance does it.

Something to do with the diff/cradle mounts is allowing the whole diff to move up/down around 10mm

Yeah you're right.. just a little worrying :/

Spotted Troy and Richard hugging each other as the sun went down over the lake. They looked to be eating takeaway.

Hope you boys had fun

Cheers Josh!

Yours had a nice tune when it took off as well

I spotted a r31 parked outside of Pedders in Phillip as I dropped my car off for an inspection

Spoke to the guy who owns it about his Rims dont know if his online here

Also spotted a Silver 33 cruising around Phillip.

Then Josh rocked up for a surprise visit just after I talked to Natrad about my constant coolant problems

Pedders bad :down:

Rear calipers installed on wrong side and upside down. Pads on wrong way in calipers.

All new suspension installed but not adjusted. Camber out, toe out, F/R balance alignement out.

Bled in wrong order, air in brake system. Did not and would not blead ABS - WTF.

3 x returned for fixing - no luck and they had no idea.

Sir your brand new Rotors/Calipers/Pads/braided brake lines/BMC have no problems. Your car just does not stop very well and its got very spongey brakes. You should look on the internet and see what you can do to fix that !!!!!

Yes I went back and told them what was wrong and that I had paid again to have it done.

1 minute at ACT brakes - your calipers are on upside down and wrong side sir. Fixed. Felt alot better.

But these guys didnt notice pads installed correctly. Went back twice more. Sir there is nothing more we can do !!

Both of the above shops have "Brake Specialists" in their business name.

ESP identified and resolved all brake issues :thumbsup: and bled the ABS as per what you are supposed to do !

Capital steering and suspension for dialing in suspension :thumbsup: . Booked in Wednesday.

I should go get the spare key to my car and go steal it back haha?

Okay well there goes $14 for the inspection lets see what they come up with that's wrong with my car

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
