I am looking to replace my complete dashboard and centre council with a better condition one tomorrow and was wondering if anyone has any advices or has done it before,

Also I am worried it won't fit as the shop sold me one out of a sedan but mine is coupe, he said it will fit but I don't know if I should trust that! Anyone know if they are same dimensions or not?

SkyHatch got a Roadway Mufflers Custom 2" Cat Back exhaust and I Hit the Fake Lights on the rear Garnish with some NightShades tint in a can. :D

I did rack bushes and anti roll bar links

I hate working under cars

Would have been worth it though.

I've been trying to find out why my car is overfueling. It overheated a lil a few weeks ago from that hot sat we had

I'm wondering if my new water temp sensor is ruined from overheating and air bubbles?

Today me and my mate dropped my gearbox. Because a while ago I was driving and at idle I was bout turn a corner and "CLUNK"! My clutch didnt raise back up and pedal stuck to the floor.. Upon inspection my clutch fork had disengaged and fallen off its springs. And it f**ked up my slave cylinder. Soo I bought new slave cylinder and an extreme heavy duty push clutch to replace the old rooted one while gearbox is out.

2 hours later we managed to get the gearbox back and about to bolt everthing back up. I noticed a weird bolt was snapped but where was its thread!. Turmed out to be the ball joint clutch pivot!! Which helps keep the fork in place. So we had to drop the gear box again and took a look. Low and behold it was. Hell the hell did it snap. No clue. Turns out when it snapped I was in gear turning a corner the force of the fork falling out broke my slave cylinder and caused my clutch to spin uncontrolably against my fly wheel. Now im waitimg for a new ball joint and taking my gearbox into phillip head services so they can drill out this stuck thread for $80...... Thats my day.. Sorry for the long story.

But trust me that was the short version lol.

Congratulations (I hope)! hehe

Sell the GTR? are you insane?

I'm gonna f**king hold you to this mate. I can't stand the number of NICE cars up for sale due to a baby coming along and more or less the missus handing down the orders that it's gotta go.

She already tried the "we can't afford it and it has to go" when building our house.

I basically said it will be the last thing to go in this house............. If you get my drift.

Have not heard about it since. She understands it's all i spend my money on now. And god knows we don't need the money for what i would get for it.

Exactly. Selling something like your car would only make sense out of pure desperation. The investment:return ratio makes it sheer insanity to let it go any other time. Plus it's really not bloody fair the way they (stereotypically) pull that shit. It's like f**k, what do YOU have of value we could sell instead of MY car, hmm?? And it's more than just a massively depreciated asset, lol...when you've poured enough into it, it's almost part of you.

congratulations :yes:

I thought long about my build, the only real thing I had to get straight in my head was , I am NOT going to sell it and when you do not sell it they are worth as much as you spend on them :yes::yes:

Pretty much. i don't see us ever needing the money TBH. We are walking in with enough equity in the house for me to buy an R35. SO whats 25-30g (if im lucky).

Like fair enough my spending on it will drop pretty heavily. But as long as it's sitting in the garage i don't really care.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
