i was on my way to tuggeranong and i could smell something burning like oil. quickly pulled aside and there was smoke coming out from the engine where the air con compressor is and also it was making noise. as i had the air con running on max, when i turn it off the noise was gone but it was still smoking.

Got it towed home just to be safe but was not fun waiting for like 2 hours on the side of the road

Dont know what the problem is but i will find out tomorrow

Sounds like the Radiator couldn't handle the really hot weather and it cooked. Hopefully no major damage was done....

Spotted Tom in his Blue 300z in Fyshwick around 2pm.

Silver, Wingless 4door R34 with NSW plates near Grevillea just before 2:20pm.

Dark R33 GTR? coming out of the Orange tunnel as I was heading in, just after 2:20pm.

    • 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
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff
