Don't worry Peter mine is sitting on a hoist just near it keeping it company!

Terminal build syndrome :)

Do you get in to see what is going on I live 330 Klms from them so it is worse not being able to keep an eye on what is happening :/

All of the above at the moment :)

Good luck with that because it doesn't exist!

In mine we're just addressing the consequences of severe overheating. Was racing alternator came loose, threw all the belts off (so think no water pump) then belts wrapped around clutch fan which punctured radiator. Spirals on from there. Head is off getting checked.

I haven't been in since I dropped it off. Last time I saw the boys was at WTAC but I get updates.

I've been going there a long time so I know what I'm in for I'm prepared to wait.

Oh well it's one of those things that happens. I was doing 142mph at the time and I look forward to doing that again :D

It's always shit when they're offroad.

Can tell you from experience it'll be worth the wait.

In the mean time I will play in my little toy BMW! :D

Is the BMW a car or a real toy ?

My other car is a Tiida, I gave my TT350GT to my Son , wish I held on to until the R was ready, but all good, he is stoked with it :)

It's a 135i so 225kw of little pocket rocket goodness :)

Hammers for what it is! I love it.

That should get going, Tiida is a little family car and does not miss a beat but not fun to drive, swap ?

Pics when done

What year model did you get Troy ?

I saw what looked to be the most current R yesterday and I think I like the previous shape better.

New one looks squat and more like a Velocitor

Brand new, so 2014 model. There are definitely things about the previous shape I like over this one, though ultimately I'd still chose the new model personally :)

Went to fit the eyelids yesterday....unfortunately one of them has a crack in it from being bent. No idea how that's happened considering the box they were delivered in looks fine :( oh well, sent the seller a message on ebay. Haven't left him feedback yet, so I'll certainly get a replacement lol

See, evil and sinful :ban:

As for me :spank: I am worried, I starting to like it :blush:

I am sure Kat is a big girl and can take a little banter after 7000 odd posts on this site of wacko blokes :banana:

She hands it out half the time :P

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
