Well I have to say that I never had a scratch on my XT Forester until I moved here to WA. Now 3 of the 4 doors either have a scatch or small ding from someone opening doors on them in car parks.

So far the R33 GTR has not got any.

Pisses me off as I am so careful when I open my doors that I don't hit the cars parked next to me.

i agree with the lot of you yes i might have a old VL commodore but it has imaculate paint and its from factory. the poor old bloke before i got it never took it out of the garage then i have it a year and it has a big scrape on the bonnet which i need to fix and a scratch on the front bumper from dumb ass in a parking lot that of hit it with a pram or something.

when you get into any ofmy cars i make my friends tap their feet clean and when they put bags in the car they d not put them in the front so it scratches the dash etc.

Same here in NSW.

XT Foz attracts "Inconsiderates" to bump into, lean on and scrubbing from drivers that pull out from the kerb without looking.

GTR goes out to places where I can watch it or else I just drive it without stopping till I get home.

People who go to the trouble of installing CCTV should advertise that footage is F/S to those who have had damage done to themselves or to their cars.

There's this guy I know.. Crazy about his car. It's funny cause I always purposley rub his seats when getting in and out to wear them out prematurely, also always make sure my shoes are covered in dirt

i do that as well rohan. normally i pick my nose and hide treasure under his seat and steering wheel, think we might be talking bout the same guy :whistling:

I thought the last time i was in the car that the treasure mountain under the seat had grown without my help. nice one.

That sucks man! I feel your pain. One of the ladies at work locked her keys in her car and got RAC to get into the car to get the keys, when the RAC guy got into the car he opened her door right into my drivers side door. Leaves a nice mark when her car is white and mine is black. Was able to polish most of it out.

But then about 3 weeks later someone at work or the gym opened thier door into my car, took the paint all the way down to the primer! :angry:

i was at a blokes house the other week doing a job.. noticed he had a new aston dbs (or db9, they all look the same to me) in the garage.. started talking to him about it.. he told me it was his daily driver

i said the obvious thing about avoiding carparks, etc.. and he told me already he's had some bitch in a hundi swing her door into it!

people are fkn retards

Greater union in innaloo or whatever its called now.

Amount of times I have come out of movies and seen people sitting/leaning on my car....

* stab stab stab *

Yeah. I saw something similar last week.

I was driving back home on Albany Hwy (WA). At one of the bus stop on the side of the road, there was this good-looking clean Toyota Mark II (Or Toyota Chaser, I am not too sure) parked at the back of it. Then, there was a group of girls (I won't say what kind of people, but most of us probably know already. :P ) and 2 of them sat down on that car hood (1 of them was fat!).

I felt so sorry for the car and its owner. I would never ever park near the bus stops again. :devil:

It is simple guys... if you see someone in a car park do this then takes photo's and ask them for their insurance details as it is damge to your property that they need to fix...

if they refuse to give details then let them know that you will be filling out an accident report in which they left the scene of the accident and will be charged accordinly :) it work for me to get my door completely re-sprayed when a stupid women got out of her soccer mum 4x4... and let me say her husband was not impressed she admitted it so easily :)

Alot of carparks are private property, can be really hard to claim against someone else (police normally won't do reports). what you will normally find is you still have to pay an excess and you will lose your no claim bonus.

you are correct most car parls are privately owned... but willful damage to another persons property does not matter where you are :) and i can tell you now they will report you if you do the same back to their car... i never take anything laying down or without a fight, dont make it easy for halfwit's to get away with damage to your pride and joy is all i am saying, otherwise it will happen to the next person they park next to.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
