Hey guys, I've asked this over at styling too - but I thought maybe someone a bit more local might be able to help :)

I found some bog when rolling my rear guards earlier today - As you can (hopefully) see is an old repair that's shown up. When I say shown up, I mean the whole arch has fallen apart. This is in essence a track car (with some daily stuff). So, I was thinking of just cutting the arches out and adding some torana style bolt on flares (I know that are not to everyones tastes, however they'll fix the issues nicely).. and I had a tori for ages. I only want something thats 20 - 25mm..

The usual searches have churned out some outdated links.... Does anyone know where I can source some??

Cheers!!

Cristian helped me out - a good guy.

I have another idea Anthony - Buy a Skyline!

In fact buy this http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/352396-r34-gt-t-auto-sedan-in-canberra-8500/

Drives well, clean straight and honest. Unbeatble price. But be quick :)

But I've got a 33, and its says skyline on the back.... And thats an auto. I can't go back EVER again.

I actually got some from just jap being freighted in carbon.

I'll post pics when she's done with the fatness wheels :)

Maybe these http://www.justjap.com/store/product.php?productid=20032&cat=&page=1

Cheers

Hey Danny :)

Its been ages mate - I was only talking about your car the other day. Now mine is a dirty copycat :) It's Anthony ;)

Richard - the pics are comming - the car is getting them done next week - but I'll tape them in place for some pre shots.

Shit sorry Anthony, I'm bloody hopeless with names and faces.....never been a people person. Many an embarassing moment, this is another one.

I still have all that R33 stuff you gave me, do you want it back????

I was always going to take it to Canberra and give it away, but never ever did.

Yeah man - still here. I've had two 31's and the 33 since the 32. This one is going to be faster though :) I was sad to see you were selling yours - it was always really tidy that thing.

The flares ended up not actually giving me any extra gaurd room, so its cutting, glassing and butchering for them - and then they will sit in primer till I can do something about it :)

Photos once done (late next week I'd say)..

Cheers!!

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
