I am getting very sick of getting eggs thrown at my car... I just got hit again the other day - third time this year and I have had enough. Two have hit the side of the car putting really trendy egg marks down the side of it, the other hitting the front windscreen. I was so angry as it wasn't just me in the car, but my wife and baby on our way home late at night... The cops weren't overly helpful, but I suppose not much they can do.

I thought of making up some stickers that can be added to each time I get hit (trying to be a little positive about the whole ordeal). Does anyone want one (or multiple).

Is this while you've been driving? Or parked in the driveway at home?

I've been egged once (and I know who the person is) and I was lucky that the dipshit who did it wasn't very smart and egged the car one cold night when it was all dewey. There for, the egg did not harm the paint, not stick to it to damage it. We took it straight to the carwash at 2am in the morning to get it all off.

I got egged twice, fist time I didn't know who it is, but on the second time we were having a BBQ and i recognise the exhauste note. Anyway nothing a paintball gun with about 50 frozen paintballs can't fix. This is what I call artificial hail damage.

If you know the right people semi automatic wepons are still avaliable :D

I dont think some of these people think, as in I dont think they realise the egg actually stuffs the paint, and the shell can scratch. They just think of it as an annoyance, not so much damage. If they did some might not do it. Not an excuse but hey.

Each time was when driving in different locations. The first time I parked around the corner and went looking thru the school if I could find the bastards. Other two were with wife and kid in the car while driving. The better half didn't want me to turn around incase they threw more.

The egg chell actually scratches the paint to the point of leaving bare metal. There is only a certain amount buffing will do. The first egg mark has now started to show some slight rust even though I washed it off immediately and applied some clear coat when it was dry (didn't have any touch up paint).

I think if it happens again I will go insane... haha

May even take on some of your suggestions

farkkk... If that was me (this might sound macho) but i'd jump on the brakes.. no matter who was in the car.. (i dont have a wife and kid of course) pop the trunk lock the car.. get out ye old trustee 1W.. and beat the c**ts to an inch of there life.. call the ambo's.. tell them what happened... and hand myself into the police.. i believe if i do something like that I should get punished too.. But at least id have my revenge and a clean conscience.. my mind works in weird ways.. but no, i have never been egged thankfully (and yes I keep golf clubs in my boot cause I play golf)

I had strawberry thick shake thrown on my black skyline at work. Right in front of my face the poor kid tripped twice getting away... I think he may have even broken his nose.... (blood on the path)

He learnt his lesson....

Serrious im slow and couldnt keep up, he seriouslly triped twice face planting the concrete walk way..... Was so funny i stopped chasing him and pi$$ed myself laughing.... Then drove the car run to the dock and hit it with the fire hose and all washed away with no damage at all...

Best thing for paint work, that got egg, to stop it dead in it tracks is apply wd40 to the affected area, as this slows down the oxidisation of the paint by choking it of oxygen and allowing time for you to cut polish or kick it in, well what ever float your boat at the time, LOL. Alot of ppls don't understand how frustated owners can get after being egged, and I know sometime I get all work up and do some dumb shit but I never regret kicking the crap out of the little f**ker.haha.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • 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.
