Glenn: As per last night, won't have car back. Will probably come along to lend a hand. Will bring my tools and stuff anyhow. Might do something to the r31, dunno.

kinda looking forward on working on your car though :D

seeya tmr then.

that one is around $250..

a bargain basement one will just bother me.. i might be keeping the r31 for a while as just a thrash around car. Even that one i'd put in another car. It'd actually be better than the model i have in my r33 (which was the older model)

yeah :D i'm a bit pissed over it too.. but panel beaters its one excuse after another, and then one day when u least expect it they say "hey, your car is done".

The main concern in the r33 is the brake fluid.. up nebo the other time i was getting brake probs on the way down.. bit of a worry. Gearbox and diff is fine, but time they were changed. I mean i've done 30,000km since i've had it, and they have never been changed.

Oil, sparkplugs and the filters i've changed regularly.. but not the other more longterm stuff

this indicate i need a good rub-down...

any recommendations? :D

Warwick told me of a good place the other day. YOu need to book in online before you turn up though. http://www.squizzlovepalace.com.au

apparently the first inch is free, and they offer a "full service" whatever that means. Or so warwick tells me.

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
