Yes, this time of the year again.

I get all the mums and kids asking If I know anyone with cool cars who can take them to the yr12 formal.

Obviously the R30 Hunchback isnt cool enough.

So I will update with more details. (gotta get info from wife)

Any takers?!?!???????

lol :) well when it's actually running, I will have time to touch up the paint etc....otherwise until then it's dirty, and got lots of scratches/chips

Come to think of it I may not be the best to do a formal run.. some a-hole hit the front of my car in the carpark at work on friday so i have a big (1cm x 5cm) bit of paint missing as well as a dent in the front bar.. the motherfkn c-bomb didnt even fkn leave his motherfkn details.. fkn hell this sh!t makes me angry

Oh well.. an excuse to get an aftermarket front bar I suppose

If my skyline is all running perfectly again *fingers crossed* and a time and date can be given to me to confirm the calender. I'd be willing to do a formal run for just a little over the cost of fuel.

Happy to crank up whatever music in the car they wanna play - stereo is all done and doing well. And the car is nice, neat, and normally goes amazingly - plus it aint stupidly loud.

well that counts me out. lol

You just think it pulls harder cos u were driving it when it had nothing :P

(But on a serious note, if u get and put in an awesome good quality cat, should still pull nicely).

Glad she's running, hopefully not too loud or smelly like. Fingers crossed I'll be driving around again tonight or tomorrow night.

    • 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.
