Just confirming that the hairdresser car is substantially waterproof at this stage. GT-R in the car hole safe and warm.

Strangley enough the only real arse hat i noticed on the freeway yesterday during the storm was a WRX driver cutting up the emergency lane...mmm typical lol.

My hilux got hit :)

New bonnet required ;)

My boss's Skyline is f**ked. Pretty much every panel is damaged, windscreen cracked, rear wing damage. Will be a write off. (As will his Fairlane, Corallo and BA Ute.)

A work colleague had three cars written off in the driveway and a tree fell on their house.

:)

I noticed 1 dent on my bonnet this morning on the way out to my 2 wheeled dak dak, will have a closer look at the line when i get home.

Woot, no hail in the hills (no power either) but tonnes and tonnes of rain... I'm honestly amazed that the 28year old porsche with its huuuge manual sunroof was completely waterproof!! Afaik, dad's fairmont got absolutely rooted.... Going to call Hyperdrive later and see if my GTR survived....

Reports that the roof collapsed at Alf Barbagallo motors onto the Ferraris and Aston Martins. ;)

Bardly, run down and take a pic :)

I am in Adelaide as of 8am yesterday morning and until this Thursday, I missed the weather but apparently skylights on my roof have smahed and flooded the place, nice. Also my dads BFII XR6 is battered the hell with dents.....

My GTR was cosy and garaged.

Had to go get food so took Porsche. Now 1 head light is out and wiper don't work. So crawling through the hills, barely being able to see and hitting huuuge puddles I didn't know were there was shit pants scary...

But, my damn car fixes itself! When I got home, still no power so thought I'd go to mums. Got into car, turned it on and wipers start randomly working!! Then all of a sudden, other headlight starts working!! Epic car, I love ya!!

^ ha ha looks like the tunnel turned into a river.

Just driving around S. Perth now it looks like almost every parked up car has been ruined by hail. Some shiny beemers and mercs all ruined.

Got totally pwn'd. Just got back from the shops and got the shopping in and figured I'd better get the car in the garage. *Chunk* *Chunk* *ChunkChunkChunk*... Nooooooooooo!!!

All I could do was watch while the hail pounded my baby - alarm screaming out in agony. She now looks like a golf ball. Thankfully Just Car have agreed to cover it and are sending an assessor tomorrow. Fingers crossed for a new paint job - some of those dents aint getting pulled (like the ones on the a-pillar and front fender).

      Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ?

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
