could be the clear coat coming off

sometimes that can make it look like a respray in areas

I think it definitely is in some places.

Though I found some black spray paint on the front passenger window which sparked my thinking.

Haha very wary of crossthreading, all good!

But yes, my delicate hands were not made to work on the GTR. I have 2 small grazes, a bump on my arm and a small chunk of skin missing from my finger but GTR now has fire extinguisher!!

Get yourself a few pairs of these >> http://www.signet.net.au/store/products/40857/ansell-hyflex-11-618-gloves-size-9-12-pairs-per-box

or similar for working on the car, we have to wear gloves at work and I borrowed a few pairs for home. I've gotten so used to working in them I feel like something is missing if start playing with the car without gloves on.

Pulled the Twin Turbo pipe off and the Apexi intake pipes for polishing.

Also getting Sin's old polished plenum re-polished as well.

Only thing I could get off is the rear turbo elbow pipe. May have to paint this black!!

Washed and started polishing the SkyHatch but not finished...

Got involved in much more exciting things like pruning the roses but did a Green Waste run in it. Practical it is.

I'll finish it of tomorrow and Vac.

also got my N13 Haynes Repair Manual today for $20. :D

Started the skyline for the first time in a few days.. It really wasn't happy and was running on 5 cylinders for a few seconds. I'm guessing it will only get worse if I leave it for longer periods..? Any recommendations?

Might check the plugs when I get a chance, it's almost been 10k.

I don't have any problems starting the GTR after longer periods besides battery (problem solved leaving trickle charger on it).

I also don't remember the last time I got 10k out of a set of plugs! :)

You mean like tuning it up to the edge and drag racing? :yes: Yeah, that will give the plugs a hammering.

Sold VC commodore today for a small profit :yes:

Not an easy thing to do these days. Nice one.

Gave mine a quick wash, its losing gloss in some areas, maybe its just the wax, but it will get another polish soon anyway.

    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together
