All,

  Im off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of eastern creek! Bring on the rain YEAH!. Tough luck to all you suckers stuck in the office! EC here I come

shuddup Paul. :rofl:

LOL...it was fun in the wet. Im always amazed how much you learn about the characteristics of the car in the wet, and how you learn throttle control and to use smooth steering inputs, which all goes out the window when you run accross muddy rivers running accross the track.

Started off good, then as the rain continued the water started running accross the track on turn 1 (big moment sideways but held onto it and survived), turn 4 (survived, still a little gunshy from turn 1), but then turn 8 was having a play sidewys with a monaro, but coming up to turn 9 aquaplaned straight over some mud/river form a a Porsche crash earlier in the day and went for aride.

It was good fun, a bit like a slippery dip, but instead of splashing into a nice pool of water it was like going head first into the pool bottom:( , or tyres in this case.

Car got back on the track and did another 3 x 20min sessions until the alternator died and had no voltage...lol big thanks to Doughboy and the midnight spares express:thumbsup:

All in all it was a fun day, good to catch up with Paul and Ben (long time no see) and do a lousy 2:20 slipping and sliding with the occasional bump:(

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
