  1. I'd say take the parcel shelf out, might find some hidden bolts or rivets maybe
  2. Yeah i'd go with the compressor wheel scuffing on the housing. Mine made a god awful noise after it let go, thankfully the cooler cought most of the bakerlight.
  3. Give Peter at Able Alarms a try Kietz. Monitored for around $6 a week 8396 0877
  4. Thats freakin crazy Troy!
  5. Just had a white R33 boot it past my place, would hate to have been his coilovers as he went over the yellow rumble strip. Had what looked like AVS wheels, number plate SKD-033, just wondering if its anyone on here?
  6. Just wondering if there is any up date on how test fittings were going on these?
  7. Shit thats alot of custom work there! Looks good though. At least you know you'll have a one off 33 ! Cant wait to see it painted up.
  8. Run 18x8.5 +35 on the 33, nice fit but could do with spacers
  9. Spotted a few 33's today. And also me getting followed by an unmarked car all the way from windy point to north tce! Also a skyline cutomising a brush fence on target hill road this morning, just after the stamford rd round about! luckily he missed the post box, but buggered if i know how he did it anyway!
  10. Wrong! Chad is right! EPA have found asbestos fibres still in the fill that Bob Jane purchased cheap to build the mounds, nothing to do with a curfew as D Stirls said, Speedway city can still run 360 and 410 sprint car championships. Still waiting on the pics taken of the track a few weeks back to put in the other thread.
  11. ^ looks like a sealed tank to me too! Washer motors are the same, trico do replacement ones.
  12. Actually the plastic will be more flexable, if the kits off the car it makes it easier to tell as fibreglass will be heavier and thicker too. Not so much by running your hand over the painted surface, but by standing back and seeing if the kit looks wavy.
  13. Yeah sounds like dry or warn bushes there Penny, maybe get it to pedders for one of their suspension check ups
  14. I do agree Andrew, Labor have dropped this country in the shit big time! But people have remember that this country has run on the back of the automotive industry since wool prices died in the arse. People complain about the amount we get paid as production workers, but until you've worked a repetative job day in day out and worked odd hours, missing out on family life and rearranging your entire life to suit the whims of a Global company that cant produce a marketable product. Then who are they to judge. Yes i agree we are well paid, about $27/hr plus shift loading, but working 3-11pm isn't easy, shit im basically going to be working for half wage for the next 12mths. As for being unskilled labour, do they have any idea of how many fully qualified tradies work at Elizabeth? I do agree with parts of those articles, but until you've worked in the job, you really are in no position to judge. (not refering to you Andrew, i can see where your coming from)
  15. Yeah all in house stuff, on CARE line, basically final inspection point on the final assembly line.
  16. http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/story/0...26-2682,00.html Damn i love stirring the pot
  17. Well unless the Government fix the Tariffs i can see a flood from Mitsi's, Toyota, Mazda and anyone else who can load a car onto a ship! GMH's 4cyl doen't go into production until next year, if the place is still up and running then. If not im sure that will come from overseas too. But what do you expect when you build a thirsty land barge with built in low quality! A mate just worked it out, we loose 42% of our monthly pay !
  18. Damn right there Ben, good 15yrs behind evolution. Shit i work in PQAD i see the crappy fit and finish on a daily basis, but no one seems to care. Suck when its the only financially viable GM plant in the world, but the big boss in the states get a 20 million handshake and told to piss off. You can expect this to affect the whole state in a big way if GMH do go belly up!
  19. Thanks Krishy Yeah they're giving us more time off than a prostitutes knickers, pretty much treating us the same too
  20. Better get use to it Shane. Big announcement tonight, GMH Elizabeth will be going to one shift only, Days and Arvo's will be on a weekly rotation. So one on at day shift rate (bout $150 a week less) then the following week at 50% pay. Seems the auto industry in Australia is about to go belly up!
  21. The easiet way to tell the difference is the finish. Factory plastic will be smoother both outside and inside, fibreglass will normally be a little wavy and rougher on the inside or back of the kit.
  22. A great and valid point there Joel and Pete.
  23. Damo that look freakin awsome
  24. Yeah but how many 34GTR owners do you see hooning! And it not stealing in their eyes, its obtaining by legal means.
  25. Just about no need for a kick stand then Pete? Damn i wish i didn't have to work friday night now !
