Howdy everyone,

Thought id make myslef known as i recently after many many months of blood, sweat and tears i have managed to get my beast on the road! The names Laine and i am a proud owner of a Black R32 Gts-t that i imported through prestige motorsport. Id just like to add that geoff at prestige is a top bloke and helped me every step of the way as im sure alot of people out there already know.

Anyway as a lot of you have experieinced Dicskon Inspection station is possibly the worst place in the world to get your car inspected. Took me three goes before i got cleared, and it cost me over $1000 in parts to make them happy. I understand alot of the things needed replacing to make it roadworthy but each time i went there they would find something that they didnt the previous time which was infuriating to say the least!! But its done know so if you a Black Gts-t with gold Work alloys, a gtr kit minus rear spoiler cruising round with a lanky bloke driving give us a wave!

One question though, my mags have seen better days in the paintwork department and i was wondering if it is viable to get them repainted and cleaned up or is it cheaper to buy new ones. If it is viable who around Canberra does that sort of thing?

Well i look forward to many years of Skyline enjoyment and hopefully ill see some of you guys cruising round at some time. Ill probably throw up a post every now and again when i get some mods done, but for now i have to pay off the bills of getting the car registered!!!

Cya'll later

welcome Laine, good to hear you got it on the road, you should come out and meet us on a tuesday or friday

For your wheels, try the wheel factory in qbn, they are apparently the best locally

Just got a question, have you had your car towed around on the back of trucks earlier this year? Reason i ask is I ve got a black R32 with gold wheels too, and have received a few frantic phone calls and msgs about my car on the back of a truck, was it yours?

Yeh thanks guys ill give them a call when i can get some cash together.

Nah sorry wasnt my car either, ive kept it off the back of any trucks thank god even though at some stage i had a bung starter motor and a screwed ignition lock.

Where abouts do you guys normally head on tuesday/fridays then? Im pretty busy with uni and sport at the moment but i might make an appearance this Friday all being well.

Could have been me in dickson, spent plenty of time out there at the inspection station!! Yeh and distance defineitely makes the car look better, paint needs some polish after 15 years and spending nearly 3 months at the docks in japan.

      Grind them off, drill them out. Repair any rust on the other side. Start again from scratch.

      Power steering pump r32

      By waxracing · Posted

      Thanks Mate, I did know you could do that but i know there is a pump out there that you can bolt on and it all lines up. I was told about it and then forgot the model, I figure if i am pulling it apart i will just put a new one on

      You can also remove the veins from the HICAS portion of your existing pump.

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      By DatsunBanana · Posted

      Trying to swap the rear subframe on my R34 and can't remove the L-shaped stay brackets between the front subframe mounts and the sill/chassis. I'm in the UK so rust is a problem. I've used loads of WD40 and then Tunap 103 for days beforehand. I backed off the bolts forward a bit, backward a bit repeatedly for ages to try and avoid snapping. They have all moved a few full turns. The one I've spent most time on has come loose and I can turn with fingers, and it will pull down and push up 2-3mm. But it won't come out. I can tighten it back up and loosen it off again repeatedly but it still won't come out. I assumed there's a captive nut inside but if that's broken loose then I can't understand why I can always tighten the bolt back up - I'd expect it to just spin both ways. Any ideas what's happening here? I can't visualise what's inside there to cause this.
