Here are some pictures from last weeks flooding of Hawthorn right outside our work office. I wasent actually at work on the day but a guy at work took these pics from our balcony.

All the building carparks are underground in the area but i cant take my car down the ramp coz it scrapes the front spoiler real bad. So i park around the back of the building.

Luckyly the people in our office moved their cars out before the whole area got flooded, but in the pic of the fireman near the building that building got totally flooded and about 20 cars in their underground carpark were floating around.

They are still pulling our cars today onto tow trucks.

The white honda in the pic was also floating around and the fireman had to get a rope and tie it to one of the posts.

I wish i was there coz it would have been a pisser to see the cars floating around.

I live and work on Glenferrie too, shat my pants when it started to hail but managed to get the car out pretty quick.

The pics you see in the herald sun and the video footage on channel 7 and 9 is from my camera. They approached me when they saw that I had been down there for a while taping it.

:bahaha: and i know where all that stuff is too like the back of my hand :( I so wish i was back there when it all happened.. i love chaos :worship:

although here we had massive storm and trees falling over cars last friday. I went out for a drive 20 mins after it happened and there were like branches and stuff all over the road, trees blocking the main street. Saw 2 squashed cars and was thinking "hmm, somebody is gonna be pissed". It was like my skyline was on an obstacle course, was sooo cool :cheers:

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
