yea one of the guys i work with got a call from his gf in woden who said they just got hit by HUGE hailstones. looked at bom.gov.au noticed another one heading towards the city. Luckily moved the car to the tradies :mad: walked back only spitting at this stage and by the time i got up the lift and to my office i looked at side and it was PISSING DOWN 2 minutes later heaps of hail the car park started turning white :mad: all i can say is i am glad i moved my car

That was pretty full on !! I was down in Gordon visiting when it started. Pulled onto Drakeford Drive and I could actually see the wave of hail stones coming up the road !!

I just gunned it to my place and got the car under cover.

Then after that one had passed we got another hail storm that was bigger !! Damn that lightning got close too !

Tuggers out Condor way was pretty well hit. I was on the phone to Shane about 12:40 and heard it startup in the background. He reckons it was plummeting down within moments. Manged to get a word out to Ed n Jayce, both being in the vicinity.

Didn't seem too bad here in Dickson

wtf i am in transact building in dickson and at one stage its was pretty damn heavy a guy brought back a couple of hail stones about the width of gold balls but half the heigh i would call that pretty big :rofl:

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
