Home from work, was sick this morning, but now I'm fine

So spent a few hours working on the front bar I'm playing with to learn how to do body work... I'm scared that it's coming up too well now and I might actually use it as my real front bar :/

Leeeeeroooooyyyyy, can I please borrow your spray gun? I wanna give this a shot.

Also where's a good place in S.E or Bayside where I can get some QM1 mixed up? Also going to need some high fill primer... where to go?

Pretty much I've got ZERO experience with automotive paints, so if any of you guys want to lend a hand or offer advice... please do. Also, will be painted in my garage... I'm going budget here, plastic sheeting to make a makeshift spray booth :D

Sounds like overspray time... You need ventilation and airflow away from the car.

old airport road hawker centre.

shopping?

see MBS, universal studios, our gardens by the bay,

singapore airport, spend as much time behind the customs gates, because it's that awesome.

did someone say old airport road hawker centre?

yep what scotty says.....

you need to keep as much dust way from the paint as possible.....

make sure you get the mixture right and practice on some thing smaller to get the flow right.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
