this is great :)

I thought I was the only person who went through this - I know exactly where you are all coming from.

I park in the last spot in the carpark at work b/w a wall and a long column, or try to park away from all of the cars at shopping centres.

I was sick of my old car (laser tx3 turbo) getting banged up all the time by d*ckheads - people with no respect for other peoples cars is MY PET HATE!!!!!!!!

hey akeenan, where abouts in melb do u work?

the worst are people who don't respect their car and who definitely don't respect other peoples cars, i see some ppl in their shiat box (and sometimes expensive cars) just rip it into the parking and then open their door wide without worry about knocking the car parked next to them. i hate getting dents on the door from other ppl..

I take the rego numbers of the cars parked next to me. If there's any paint from there doors on my car, I'll find who they are.

thats a good idea. i gonna try that... prolly write down the colour of their car aswell just in case they leave any paint behind.

heres a few golden rules i live by when parking.

1.) whenever it is possible park next to a garden, pole whatever limit the number of people who can park next to you.

2.) If there are no garden/pole/whatever spots avaliable park as far away from every other car as possible.

3.) make people aware at work/at school that a particular parking spot is urs so they dont park in it..

ive done this and now people leave me certain spots wether im at school or at work.

4.) Make a friend park next to you, this is what I do at school, I park next to the garden spot and my friend parks next to me!

5.) whenever it is possible take a parents car :(

thats about it...

oh I kinda work at chadstone mcdonalds.....argh :) , but also at a bottlo as well

The ONLY time that we've parked the Skyline in a shopping complex (saw a movie) was when we parked it in the corner, right against the wall, and parked a friends Barina right in front of it so it was hard to see, and you'd have to steal both cars to get the Skyline :)

my girlfriend tends to get alittle pissed cos i dont always take the first available spot at shopping centers, im a choosy person and wont just park next to anything, even if im only going to be 5mins :(

need to be next to a pole or someone with a nice ride (even another skyline for that matter)

see, if u park next to a (even a light modded car), theyll respect your car as much as their own and will try not to wacktheir door onto your car

or even someone that looks as though they just bought a new car :) rare, but theyre out there

haven't had any trouble with car door dents, but last time i was in a shoping centre i was in the only half hour and came out and my boot badge was gone!!!!! in full daylight and rite out the front near the doors, alot of people have NO respect these days:cuss:

Woooaahh.. Look what i started :)

Its a bit hard to find a nice car to park next to where i live (Backward hill billy mother F@#U#$C@$K SHITHOLE) where a nice car consists of a VL commodore with 17" wheels and an exaust..

So when they see my R33 with 18" crome wheels they get PISSED off that they cant afford something like that and do shit to my car..

I should install a PC with some camera's on all angles of the car to go off on motion. How cool would that be ?

This is how stupid and how backward they are...

They would probly leave the PC and just steal the lose change in the console once they realise it has a hardcore imobiliser

Last time i was in shopping centre car park i was backing into by a 4WD.. $2000 later ( thank god it wasnt my fault) and thats the last time i take the skyline to a shopping centre..Usually i take the sukzuki .. but if i really have to.. I used the park next to a pole or park far far away deal..

Cheers

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
