My apologies @Harley80 I forgot about what @GTSBoysaid. I have fixed this for your account now so you can upload images.

Just click/tap the link at the bottom of the editor that says 'choose files'.

Oh man, that Celica! 😍

Some good points there @joshuaho96 I think I just looked at the box and the tap and started thinking of how much cleaner my changes could be. 🤩 I mean, I could always just use a funnel... Seems like thats the case here also.

Hi and welcome to ! I'd be taking some pics of the plugs and wiring you've found and posting them up. The guru's on here will be able to get more from those than your descriptions of them.

Dang. Good call.

Has anybody seen these in Aus? What a concept!
-
This is absolutely insane. And awesome!

Massive redevelopment. I believe they built up an earth mount / wall between the track and the complainers. D probably has more info on what they did here. They now run it both directions also which is cool.

Welcome Dan! Car sounds nice, I'd love to see some pics.

Re-welcome! "used to post a lot" ? Bah. Only 4th on the 'Most Content' leaderboard.

I know. It was there when I bought it, I don't know if I hate the scrape or the totally wrong coloured "touch up" paint more. I do plan to fix that when I can build up enough confidence 🤣

Some small fixes made over the weekend. I've been trying to get the car sitting right on the 275's as well as reducing the rubbing as much as possible. I bought a guard roller but the lip within the guard is obviously made of high tensile steel because it took so much work and heat to get the smallest of movements that I totally flared my rear arches. It looks kinda cool. I also got inside the arches with a dremel to cut down the bumper and the bumper mounts. The first one (pictured) got a bit ugly but the next one was much nicer as I just cut slots and hammered them upwards. I gave it all a spray of primer too. I'm still scrubbing a little bit on passenger side but it has less camber than the drivers, so once that is sorted it *should* be ok. I drop a single corner down on the ramp to simulate that mismatch and see where it is scrubbing. Here's my flares. The car is lower than this now. Excuse the bush fire ash on the car. I also haven't had windscreen washer jets for weeks so thought I'd tackle that. It looks like a leak is coming from under the headlight. Just in there. See it? This would have been clearer and easier if I'd taken the front bar off, but basically the plastic hose connector has broken off the headlight sprayer. And because I couldn't be arsed taking the bar off and fixing what is already a gimmick, I just disconnected the feed hose and with some aquarium hose, circlamps and a drive shaft bolt I fixed it good. The hex piece I tried first did not seal too well (2nd pic) - not sure why I thought it would! 🤦♂️. Because I hate things being broken, I will fix this, but until I could be bothered to take my bar off, this will suffice. Note the BMW push-in hose connector. Because standardised fittings are too passé. I now have an issue with my adaptive headlights always pointing too low and sometimes shaking back and forth when I'm driving. I'm keen to have these working properly. On another note, I bought a set of EBC BlueStuff for the front. I looked at so many reviews; DBA Xtreme (not enough reviews), Ferodo DS2500 (Super expensive and hard to find), Hawk HP+ (hard to find, not many track/street combo reviews) and some others. Was able to get the Blues pretty cheap (~$250 delivered). Also there's a motorsport joint in Hornsby that will supply and install a RacingDiffs LSD conversion for $850 which is pretty good. I know its not a proper LSD but I'm just not keen right now to spend $3500+ on a proper one. I figure I'll give this a go and see what its like, if nothing breaks I can sell the diff with this in and upgrade later if I want. There are some streets near me I cannot get up in the wet at all and just spin a lot in the dry, it would be nice to have traction on these. (I live on a big hill). My first ever skid pan is coming up on the 8th of Nov. Can't believe I've never done one. Really looking forward to it.

Forgive me. I've not had a GTR for so long I'd forgotten the rules.

Looks great! The problem with that brace is nobody can see it!

Hi and welcome. What are you planning to do to the car or will you keep it stock?
-
Nice! I'll try to get into the gold with the MX5. I suck badly with the uber fast cars, I wont even try the other one.
-
Looks like a healthy scene. You've had an R34 before? What are your plans?
-
Hi Jay! Welcome to ! Are there many Skylines over there? Does the ---> mean you have converted it to turbo and manual? Very cool.
-
Welcome! I'm absolutely *not* the expert in this area so I'll leave others to give more info on your q's. Its pretty cool to me that Mine's use Australian turbos.

What do you do with all the spares?
PranK replied to MBS206's topic in General Automotive Discussion
This is a great thread and going to be super helpful for me too. We moved into this place 3 years ago and the single garage has a really high ceiling, enough for a lift, but the car has never even been in there. I have so many BMW parts and even a heap of parts from my R33's, the last of which I sold about 20 years ago. I'm sure I still have a HICAS lock bar. I also have a saltwater aquarium and I have so many pumps and lights and supplements for that. I really just need to chip away. Sort whats to keep, throw and sell. Like you guys I hate dealing with people online when selling stuff and I try to avoid it but a lot of this stuff will be useful to somebody and we already throw so much out. I have lots of shelves, but they're not well organised or stacked so I need to start there probably.
