Just curious as to how many people fold their mirrors in when leaving their babies parked? ;)

I do mine all the time, in my opinion aside from looking cool - it saves the day some random comes by and runs right into your mirror from ever occuring :D

Dont know if the option was on R32s, know it was on 33's, surely it would be on 34's.

The closest I can get to getting them automated is to close the mirrors before you turn the car off, then turn the car off and put the switch back on open.

That way when you hop in and put the keys in next the mirrors will fold out magically, pimps the hell out of any passengers in there at the time :P

Gotta love the nissan parts bin the ceffies got em as well.

I leave mine out unless I think they're going to get them in harms way. I thought about putting them up to my alarm to do it automatically (my friend has it on his GTiR).. but I have to consider wear n tear, it'd be hard to get me a ceffy mirror to replace it.

Not really fussed, but if I remember I fold. What I find annoying is when new passengers to the car (normally lady friends) before entering, tell me someone bumped my mirror in & proceed to manually unfold them, ahhhh!! :bonk:

you haven't had this car for very long have you?

my GTI-R had this and I used it for about a week. the Soarer also has it and the GTR does too. it's fun the first time you see it after that it has limited usefullness.

there is no real point to doing it is there?

there is when you have to park in car parks alot, especially shopping center car parks...,.. alota ppl tend to jst not care if they hit your car or somehting like that, i seriously have a vengance against them types of people.

I only do it in my garage.

I reckon it looks kewl and chix love it (no really...I can't work it out, but they do) but I know too many people that are 'kind' enough to 'fix' the mirror up on your behalf, I havn't done it but i am guessing it would cause damage if someone ripped it back into place, honestly trying to help

No need to do it, I never park close enough to other cars. If someone could bump my mirrors they could bump my doors (THATS NOT ON). I tend to park in 2 carparks at a time and wait in the car whilst the wife goes in to get whatever at the shops.

    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
    • Hey all, Noticed I have a hole on top of which im guessing is my transfer case/gearbox. I can see it from the middle of my firewall looking down. S1 R33 gtr Any advice or can pinpoint what this is/caused this?
