i was driving home from work, turned right at the roundabout at the very top of the monaro highway (forward goes to airport, right to fyskwick), anyway, just when i was at about the canturf lawns, 11:39pm, there was a HUGE flash in the sky, lit it up like it was late afternoon. looked back and there was a huge red line in the sky.

anybody see it, or know what it was?

Weird dude.....

I remember one night couple of years ago, went up to Mt Strolmlo at like 1am... Pitch black up there... Wa;king through the pines... (trying to find BIG FOOT) And yea we saw these big blue, red and green lines in the sky.... Freaky as all hell..... Figured out it was the Obvervatory...

Could be a similar thing..... Maybe even Aliens flying by.

maybe some really fat dude lit a fart?

i was gonna suggest aurora borialis but it hangs around and its not one big flash.

though i have seen it in canb, from my back veranda and it looks amazing.

kinda freaky though if it was seen in canberra and sydney!!!!! thats a serioulsy huge flash!!!

maybe some really fat dude lit a fart?

Tryng to typ bt cnt vry wll becse lauging to hrd!

Seriously folks...fat dudes?...meteorites?...space junk?...Shell finally found the Roo?...all pure speculation. I just want whatever Andrew is having.

Wonder what sort of boost the fat dude would have to run to get that sort of trajectory/velocity. Guess he could determine curve with HKS F(art)CON, angle with adj wastegate and acceleration with PF(art)C. Sorry...

I saw a similar thing a few years back just before sunset in Sydney. Was having a beer with a mate on a balcony, I was facing west he was facing east. Giant fire ball low in the sky but the only thing he could see was me looking over his shoulder going far far far fark!

Heh heh

Hey man I say something like a big flash last night, I came outside about 11.30sih and this massive blue flash filled the sky (like lightinging) andthen in the middle of the sky their was a orange/red bright spot I thought I was seeing things, but perhaps not it was weird.

I'd say that a good exhaust and carefully designed dumps would be important.

    • 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
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
