Ha ha.. you should have seen him when he won a 1:18 scale calsonic R32. He took to school for news today bless him!

Hi spranga,

:P Jim Richards signed the award for "Best Concours R32 GT-R" as well as Terry Ashwood.

:P You've been sent a PM with my addy so you can send your "Best R32" award certificate back to me.

Then it can be signed by Jim and Terry and perhaps Alan Heaphy at "A Night With Jim Richards" on Dec 12th (unless you already have a booked seat and do it yourself on the night).

Cheers, Terry

Well this is where the 1/10 scale Winfield GTR ended up, thought I would let it spend some quality time with the winning GTR before it moves inside on display and for our baby boy that will arrive in next few weeks to play with when he grows up.

Looking forward to see some more video footage looks great so far :)

Hi Brian,

:P Jim Richards as well as Terry Ashwood has signed the award certificate for "Best Concours R32 GT-R"

:P Jim and Terry are prepared to sign yours (and spranga's "Best R32" certificate) as well, of course.

You'll see a PM from me with my addy, if you'd like to send yours back; unless of course you're already booked to go to the SAU.NSW Event - "A Night With Jim Richards" which is when it'll be signed (by Terry A, Jim and Alan).

Cheers, Terry

Hey Congratulations on your Boobie Prize Award Jonny!!!

Must say; your car deserved it... LOL

No other car came close! LOL

Tell us what your folks said about it??? Or anyone else for that matter???

Folks couldn't understand why i would put writing on my car

I think writing that stuff about my mate has made him delay finishing my guards lol

The look on people faces when they pull up next to me and read the writing is priceless

Thanks again Terry

30 Great Pics in P.I. #133 :thumbsup:

with great quotes like these...

"Those GT-Rs are race cars, not touring cars"

by Jason Round's observation of a 1992 Bathurst 1000 pre-race interview.

"Despite these cars being some 20 years old now, their ability to inspire confidence in adverse conditions has barely diminished."

by Matt Tung-Yep (aka God_speed)

"In my opinion, Skylines Australia has always been something of a perfect club."

by Ed's Perspective

"Collectible souvenirs from this occasion include the cover story featured in CARSGuide in the Daily Telegraph 8/10/10, this article in Performance Imports Magazine, a feature in the upcoming Motive DVD and professional photographs available through the club."

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
