Everything is fixed and it looks absolutely brilliant.

I highly recommend Vision to anyone !!

:mad: Take a look at this:

Some people just have no respect for other people's property. This happened in my work carpark, and no-one even owned up to it! The rear left skirt is scuffed up and the panel dented and chipped pretty bad (may push out tho)

Goran, how much were your repairs at Vision? I have another coin sixed dent in my pax side door (caused by another incompetent parker) that i want to get fixed. Just sux tho, - I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO SPEND THIS MONEY!

Does anyone know if the mobile dent removers are any good? do they do a good job?

i have this theory that people just lose it and forget how to park when near skylines. it such a shame, you take extra care driving around (trying not to destroy ure baby whilst having a bit of fun), and the next day it gets damaged by circumstances out of your control.

:mad:

btw; *BY BY* i'll be taking pics and reporting on the exhaust system soon! its all good, thanx again

Hey dude,

Sorry to hear what hapened....i know how it feels....and its really not fair.

I paid 600 bux at Vision....i got a few other quotes and all of them were around 750-800, so Vision was the cheapest, and they truly did a good job, im very happy with it.

My damage was similar to yours, it had a little bit more scratches than yours from the look of it, but very similar thing.

When u go to Vision, speak to Jerry and tell him u came highly recommended from the Skylines club (thats what i told him and he took care of me).

Good luck mate,

Goran

There was only two or three little dents, definately not as big as tooly's, but the scratches were worse....

all in all, pretty similar damage

croat - you should have went to the RBT, you should have said if they ask for your liscence, say, 'did i blow over the limit officer?"

coz they arent allowed to ask for your liscence unless you breath over the limit, coz its a RANDOM breath test....

I know what ur getting at but around here the 1st thing they ask for at an RBT is your licence to check ur photo and see that its you... If they are suss they may do a check up on u. anyway i saw the RBT and i was the only car on the road and they were ready to pull me up so with no licence in pocket and no licence in the books i shat my self and tried to get away.

It's more sus turning into a side street, just go though the 'R'BT and hope for the best. I got pulled in once, but wasn't tested, like pulled into the testing lane, then decided to let me though, weird i know. Not a real good idea to try and be smart and say things like 'did i blow over the limit officer?" (no offence Boxhead), they seem to like taking out the defect book after saying things like that.

There's probably not a lot of excuses that the coppers didnt hear, so i dont think theres much you can say that they havent heard.

Face the music and hope for the best....

You got some bad luck Croat :D

no they shouldnt be able to ask for your liscence, i know they do it, but just ask, sorry i thought i was pulled over for a rbt, if they defect you at an rbt station, they wont hold up in court, just say you were pulled over for an rbt..

Yeah Goran this last 4 months i have had the worst luck in my life! Boxhead i was not in trouble of being defected cause i was in my mums commodore... I personally would not say that to the cops cause it will just piss them off, i think.

    • Slap a 460L into the car, send its mum.  
    • So last night pulling away from the lights, I lost power for about 1 second. Bit weird, but I kept driving... 5 minutes later the pump completely dies. When I tried to start the car, the pump won't even prime.  I left the car for about an hour, tried to start it and it all appeared fine. Pump primed, car started, got the fuel pressure I should have.... Start driving home, 5 minutes later it dies again. I'm stuck in a shit spot this time going up hill with a car right behind me, so I just let the car continue to turn over while praying to the fuel pump gods. After about 2 minutes of turning the engine over, the fuel pump came back to life and I got home (only about another 5 min away).  So I've been digging around online, it seems like the 525 fuel pumps really don't like to be run at 100% all the time. I've found quite a few examples online of people killing their Walbro 525 pumps within about a year of usage when they are run without PWM.  So, my pump is an Aeroflow 525 (AF49-1057) and I've been running it at 100% without PWM. I'm thinking the Aeroflow 525 didn't like being run at 100% and has burnt itself up.  I really am sick of dealing with fuel pump issues, my current thoughts are -  1. Use a Walbro 450 and run it without PWM. It seems like these pumps hold up pretty well to being run at 100% all the time. I only make about 350kw and can't see me making any more power any time soon so this is probably a fine option.  2. Get a Walbro 525, run it with PWM. I know doing this will annoy me as I feel like with only 350kw, its extra expense that I don't "need" and I'll be thinking the whole time while setting it up that I should have gone with option 1. I know I'll be happy with this option when its setup and running, its only the initial setup frustration and cost as an issue.  3. Get a Walbro BKS1001 brushless pump. This is the fu*k it I'm already going PWM, might as well go full retard. This option just seems better in every way, with the only downside being cost. But I don't know much about this pump so I could be wrong.  Happy to get everyone's thoughts before I go digging around in the fuel tank again. 
    • Doing it this weekend. For sure this time. Thank you forum gods.  And im running map sensor now with the haltech. Still have the AFMs attached to the mushroom dome shaped air filter things
    • Actually, it is probably pretty legit. I mean, it's still woke feminazi bullshit academia, but you would have to agree that it is very likely that there would be a correlation between wanting a loud exhaust and scoring at the unpleasant end of the scales for dark triad personality traits. The fact that they found it didn't correlate with narcissism and only with psychopathy and sadism definitely shows that the loud exhaust thing is more of a "f**k you" than a "look at me", and I reckon that rings pretty close to most of the dickheads who take it to the extreme. Remember, this is correlation with tendency to be closer to one end of a personality trait scale than the other end. Of course someone who is at the literal opposite end of the psychopathy scale is going to be so considerate of others that they wouldn't even think about wanting to upset anyone with a loud exhaust. So the finding isn't that "you are a psychopath". Just that you score more towards that end of the scale than someone who doesn't like loud exhausts (on average, not necessarily even for specific individuals).
    • Blitz ER34 at some point hopefully, should be allowed in Gr3 if they do.
