Dunno about the ScibyLine at the show... it needs a spoiler, it's too bloody stock, and would only be a space filler.

And besides, the effort of finding a driver that my insurance will cover, etc, is more pain than it's worth.

So boost, exhaust and filter are done now :D

And from that message that you sent me this morning i get the impression that its going off like a burning spastic! :Bang:

If willo comes up for the show to, there will be a fairly phat selection of GTR's there of ervery model too.

So just going to leave it like that for a little while, how long have you had it now, a booyah mods already, are you sure your not a curran, oh wait sorry we have our cars for about a day and then de-register and leave them sit in our back yards, but its all good.

Hey man i hear of this good company called garage spank, check them out at www.garagespank.tk and there is this really nice fella, his name is like J or Q or something like that, and i hear that he is doing stuff at very comptetive prices, should check them out,

I heard he's got a hot ass...

No they hot looking guys run the rockhampton sector of G-Spank, but that brissy guy, he's a bit of alright for his age you know, so when is the "R" getting a 2WD/4WD switch and we are going to see some drifting of the R.

*while standing on GTR bonnent with wind in his face*

Im the king of the world!!!!

Well, will probably get that stealth wing before the show... although I'm trying to get in touch with a guy in adelaide who makes one with a brake light moulded in...

Will be good to see my old zorst-of-mystery on Kate's car. I haven't seen it up close with it on, only from a distance.

Damnit, I'll have to clean up, wax and polish the ScibyLine now... and take the wheels off and give them a good cleaning too. *suspects a trip to AutoBarn/Supercheap is in order*

Very Good old chap....

we'll see you there...

actually give us a call if you need someone to come and pick you and your car up... suprisingly there seems to be a fair bit of that going on between people with no liscences and people at work... I never knew so many of our your rice-brigade had to work tirlessly on a saturday...

oh well sucked in!!!

Yeah, will need someone, someone over 25, for insurance. I believe Pete's coming up, so I'll just badger him.

Pondering if I can afford to do the wing though... I"m tempted to go '**** it', and just leave the clear tape over the boot holes. Ugly, but I'm broke.

Hey scibs, if you need a hand i'll be more than happy to help.

yeah dev found a computer.

Okydoky, dude, will definitely keep it in mind... the big problem I have now is that the 15th of May is right between two big weeks of uni assessment.

*If* I go, I'll be sitting behind the car with text books.

WOW dev found computer, computer good!

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
