Hi jetwreck,, tell me more !, is there a problem with the sunroofs, what seems to be the problem with the engine, turbo too weak ?.

I'm down in Sydney next month looking for stageas,

The sunroofs rock. . very much so. . . nil known issues

No problem with engine it is an awesome stock engine . . it's actually above par stock engine. . it's just not good for "power whores" who constantly need more power. . . and I understand this need. . . . .

Not power whores, just a heavy vehicle that needs more oomph to satisfy :D

But as you have said, for a stock motor it's pretty awesome given the weight it has to move.

I'm up for 100,000km service in a few weeks, exciting stuff. I'm sure Nissan will feel the need to bend me over again :D

Hope Nissan stock half decent spark plugs for the service, probably expecting too much if I think they will have titanium's?

Hopefully she will feel pretty bloody good after her 100,000km service, should have her going quiet well.

I know the pain of having sunroofs come with it! :D ........I know the pain even better on the engine :D but we are getting there....300AWKW's without cracking the motor open is coming with another certain member on here :D

The only problem I have had so far is a split in the rubber around the rear sun roof.

Unfortunately I have the rubber but Hornsby Nissan were unable to fit it, I have to track down someone who can fit it. Something to do with the rubber having a wire support or something around it.

Anyone have any suggestions who might be able to remove the old rubber and fit the new one?

      Did you panel beat the dents or have you tried to repair this only using filler?  Is your sanding block soft/flexible and is following the shape of the panel rather then just knocking down the high points?

      I haven't knocked them down yet. I think I made the repair more complex than it should have been. I had rock chips combined with waviness and dents and I tackled it all in one because it was near each other and just end up wasting a bunch of bog lol. I'll knock down those areas and see how I go. And yep what you are saying at the end is correct. I think I might be sanding the top of a steep hill then my sanding block falls into the dent and gets rid of the guidecoat if that makes sense. Though shouldnt unless I'm covering too big of an area with not a long enough block. I'll try something new and provide some updates. Getting there though! Thanks as always.

      Yeah makes sense, hard to comment on your situation without seeing what your doing. I was talking generally before, I would not be looking to randomly create low spots with a hammer to then have to fill them.  It's hard without seeing what your doing, it sounds like you are using the guide coat to identify low spots, as you're saying the panel is still wavy. I don't see how you're not ending up with patches of guide coat remaining in a wavy panel? Once the high spots are knocked down to the correct level, surely to have a wavy panel you need low spots. And those low spots would have guide coat still in them?

      So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?
