I would go see Mick to see what he reckons. Because since you have the factory pearl paintjob you have to spray whole quarter and then try to make the pearl flow through the whole side. If that can't be done then the whole side of the car must be reaprayed

im after some super mega help please peoples. before christmas i said how i has someone hit the side of my car and need it fixed well im not sure where to take it i was thinking micolour but they are so far away so i was wondering if anyone knows another very good place a bit closer to me ( im from sunbury) and knows how to match midnight purple II. i got some pics of the damage, you can see that the plastic light shroud is cracked and broken but i have a new one that just needs to be painted. so if anyone knows or is good with this stuff please let me know. thanks.

oh god i hope not that will be so expensive. if thats the case ill have to go through my insurance to make it cheaper.

Might be a stupid question but have you tried cut and polishing it? just to see how much it does actually remove for a better look into it?

no i actually havnt and this is going to sound stupid but what do i buy and i actually dont technically know how to do it lol.

that would be great mate and if he cant fix it at least he could point me in the right direction and tell me what needs to be done.

cutting will get the white paint off from the other car

yeah but depends if he cab do pearls, repairing the broken part is easy

its the paint matching thats the hard part

just go to like autobarn or super cheap auto and ask for a fine/medium cutting compound

even if you do use a course one its going to need to be repaired anyway

in other news this is win

ok will do. and yes that 32 4 door is awesome i saw it before on facebook :thumbsup:

Splitfires came today and are in, seems like I have more power overall now - and that was in the wet so the 4wd system sucking some juice sending power the the front wheels.

Still a little late on hitting boost and I'm pretty convinced theres no leaks, maybe I have different turbos or something but will get the mechanic to check things out when I get 100k service done.

Tomei cam gears came today as well with 4 stickers (2 in each pack) :O if anyone wants one let me know

And above cars are SEXY MOMMAS

So the Splitfires really did make a difference..?

Although I have driven a R32 GTR with OEM coilpacks which was about 5 years ago... I don't recall the power increase... Or I am just use to driving with my Splitfires.

yeah i dont see why splitfires would increase power unless your others were that shagged and were misfiring non-stop

you shouldnt gain power going from std coilpacks to aftermarket ones, at least i wouldnt expect so

May increase the power but minimal that you can hardly notice...

Supposedly Splitfires give better spark?

yeah if the old ones are toast then you would notice better driving

spark doesnt make power

air and fuel do

change the ratio and you make more (or less) power

spark is just an ancillary to the mix

Yeah... To a point.

You still need 'Spark' to get power... I assume the bigger / better the spark, more so, the car runs smoother, rather then more powerful.

Well I really did notice a change, probably because the old ones were a bit rooted, feels a lot better to drive

Maybe its the splitfire sticker I put on my air deflector.. +10kw :P

You maybe right Leigh...

What I was trying to say was, I got so use to my Splitfires, it just feels normal...

dunno bout that but he did do an awesome job and paint matched it perfectly. i think its worth a try atleast, before he takes it in a panel shop and spends $11ty

I should buy that.

disappoint.

Looks awesome Nick!

You should have kept your R32...

you can make anything look decent with a bit of $$$

dont encourage him :P

    • I was using the wiring diagram I have So 12.74V is coming into the rear Fuel Pump relay as I measured.  When I turn the key to ON im getting 0.6V to the Fuel Pump plug; which i assume is backfeed voltage and doesnt include the 12V from ignition power.  The rear relay is working and being triggered.  From the diagram I clearly see the rear relay 80 = Rear Relay going into the Body/H loom (R-27) 27 = Fuel Pump plug going into the Body/H loom (T-20) 40 = Short Connector (R-27) I'm reading 12.74V on the blue/black wire which is the power for the Fuel Pump   From this diagram I can see the Ignition relay goes into the front and up to the ignition  2 = Fuel Pump Relay <1M> (R-27) 37 = ING Relay <1M> I started from the pump using this reference Which the way I read it (referencing Nissan wiring color codes) is: Pin Wire Color Function 1 B/P (Black/Pink) Ground 2 L/W (Blue/White)        ECU Trigger 3 SB (Sky Blue) Fuel Pump 5 L/B (Blue/Black) 12V Constant Tested SB to SB on Fuel Pump for continuity - confirmed Tested negative on Fuel Pump to 12V battery and L/B - confirmed 12V Pulled the relay putting 12V between Pin 1 & 2 and testing continuity on Pin 3 & 4 - confirmed relay   So that has me looking at this part of the circuit to understand whats happening here...and im still confused. From best I can tell; the disconnect is back to my previous diagram; between Ignition Relay and Fuel Pump Relay...which yet again; afaik is where the immobiliser should.    Thats what I was trying to explain to GTSboy; im not trying to fix it myself; yet I seem to have to get a Masters in Electrical Engineering (while im busy doing my actual job of DevOps & Cloud Engineering) somehow.  I just wanted more expert opinions; or more so that what I tested is correct and proves it to something around that area; to go back to the alarm tech (for a 3rd time) that he needs to fix it. He keeps telling me its not the alarm. He lives on the complete other side of the city so i understand not wanting to make a trip but as I said before if its the alarm it should be up to him to fix it. But he's adament its not; even though I pointed out the FP was immobilised through the original alarm. To my mind; it seems that the ECU is sending the signal; but the ignition is not getting 12V down the line.       
    • Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.
    • I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?
    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'
