If you only find deer, you're doing good! Lol. Of a night it can be a terribly dangerous road!

My missus lives right near it was like "there's no deer in there" until we went past 20 of them... Lol, I've come across lots of animals in there, which is expected being a national park...

Once went through there at night and came across a couple of *deer* standing in the middle of the road. :banana: Was foggy too, crazy stuff.

RNP definitely requires keeping eyes peeled and wits about, even more than usual.

... thanks gents for the headsup ... fingers crossed im not working ... cheers malcolm :D

i might be up for this, looking for an excuse to get out of something else :bunny:

^^^ You pinched my excuse :P

Have to see what God_speed is doing tho' because he had an accident last night at about 6 o'clock.

Got rear-ended - by a deer :)

...a Cayenne deer :laugh:

*Correction:- Cayman deer!

I hope it was in the daily not the R!!

Will txt him in the morning to see if he is ok..

Thanks David, you're a gentleman.

From what I can gather, it was like...

Three green bottles hanging on the wall: three green bottles hanging on the wall: and if one green bottle should accidentally fall; there'll be two green bottles hanging on the wall!

Well the Porsche driver ran up the third green bottle, and Matt's GT-R was the last green bottle at the front of a queue. One of the green bottles was a Beemer too I think. Damage to the GT-R is repairable. #2 green bottle hit him mainly in the left rear part of the bar + collecting the Fujitsubo tip > pushed the bar out to the right a little. The bar is repairable too; but if a new one can be sourced and keep the current one, that'd be better still. Dunno about the reo/beaver panel.

Yeah it was a Porsche Gayman actually.

Fortunately it was more like a love-tap to the GTR by the time the impact reached my car. I have no idea what he was doing as he hit the VT commodore with a fair bit of force. 6 o clock Thursday arvo, peak hour, stop start traffic. At least I'd left decent space to the car in front of me so the buck stopped with me so to speak.

Second time I had taken the car out in about 3 weeks.

I will join for a drive and lunch.

I endorse the rules as spelled out earlier in this post. If you can't control or behave yourself please stay at home. You will only give all of us a bad rep.

Please help to make this an enjoyable day and not one we would rather forget..

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
