  1. I had the shits and went into mine with 2000 wet and dry, then polished them out with plastx. Didn't have a buffer so it was by hand and took a good 2-3 hours. Even whacked a coat of clear over them to get a bit of longevity.
  2. Check your AFM. Had/having a similar prob with my car and even though it's turbo the symptoms sounds similar. Does your car simply stall like you have turned it off, or does it start running rough and then slowly die? A bit more info about the circumstances under which it's happening will help.
  3. wb. I've had previous cars done at garden city tyres, they seem to do a pretty good job. Can't comment on anyone else
  4. How dare you Richie! Immaculate car, i'm sure you will have no trouble moving her.
  5. any ideas where I can source one? wreckers etc?
  6. mini meet up this weekend before the cruise so we can compare notes. what say you, pres?
  7. pm Chris (olloskylineollo) for cruise dets man. I can give you a few tips on sorting out your headlights, did mine a few months ago.
  8. Potentially interested in air guide for R34 depending on price. Can you get rear pods to suit GTT? Cheers
  9. Have probably only seen one V series getting around jolly old Tbar. Josh, you should come on our next cruise, i'm sure our resident P-plater Nick will be keen to meet you and your car
  10. fairly self explanatory - clip is broken on mine so want to buy another. Cheers
  11. haha yeah that guard was a beast. Admittedly I left the main quest quite late cause I got too caught up with exploring and sidequestions - so easy to do! After I killed Alduin I had to google to make sure I had actually finished the game (so to speak). I really think they needed something to wrap the storyline up. oh well, onto Rage/STWOR I guess
  12. I bought my head deck from there and the dude that served me (has an s14 I think?) mentioned it. Plus I often see one parked there....
  13. hey lads good to see some more guys on here - we are planning a cruise in a couple of weeks time, pm Chris (o||oskylineo||o) for dets Keen to see your GTR, Reece and Nathan i'm guessing you work at JB?
  14. Just killed Alduin, thought there would be a bit more of a ceremonious ending? at least a cinematic?
  15. hi Mark, just wondering if you found a resolution for this issue? sounds similar to a drama i'm having...
  16. me_larr = Nick? I am thinking about the nistune/z32 route but really just want to get the car back to being 100% reliable first. Really need to find another afm to try...
  17. bit of an update - my mechanic didn't find any fault codes or anything abnormal, however suspected (along with a few others) that the symptoms suggested AFM or CAS. The car stalled on me again today but instead of just dying out of the blue it started shuddering under acceleration first then eventually slowed to a complete stall. A mate flushed the AFM out with cleaner and also cleaned out the pod etc - seemed to be a bit of rubbish in there along with a half cracked AFM plug. Taped the plug up and I took it for a half hour drive with no issues so far....HOPING that's all it was but probs not that lucky so brings me to my next questions - which AFM's fit R34? can I go straight to a Z32 or should I just go for a brand new OEM? cheers
  18. How many k's you got on your car mate? Did you have any issues with stalling/rough idling etc?
  19. bump for a tough GTT
  20. pics?
  21. Hmm, no definitely not what's happening to me mate. Spoke to my mechanic and he thinks AFM or one of the sensors, he is going to check for fault codes tomorrow morning. Better not be something major as I have just dropped a load getting the 100k service done early!
  22. well I am only speculating as it seems to be a common prob. To those that have had coilpacks fail on them - what are the symptoms?
  23. thanks mate, will do. Other that that would it be a safe bet the coil packs are the prob?
  24. Only other thing I have to add is it was raining today and the other day when it died!
  25. Coasting along at 60km/h on my way to work this morning, my car (R34GTT) starting running really rough and slowly dies to a stall. Now, this happened only a few weeks ago and turned out my battery was shagged - now have a new one and same thing basically has happened again at pretty much the same intersection. I knew it wasn't the battery as the car was turning over fine but there was a weird squeal from time to time. I let it sit for a bit trying to start it every few minutes - after about 10 mins it starts and I putt off to work. Only have basic mods: 3.5in turbo back, FMIC, pod filter and I have had my 100k service done (around 80k's on the car) but I don't think the coil packs have been done. I know these are prone to fail but just want to see if this issue could be anything else? Do you think I will be able to make it home this afternoon?!
