  1. Is there one particular spot on Gowan road that they wait or just random?

    95% of the times I've seen them between the Compton Rd. intersection and the southern end of Gowan Rd. There's a cop station on Kameruka Street, probably the source of this activity lol. Always skylines, somehow I've slipped past every time :S

  2. ah yes you're correct it looks leather-ish vinyl, whats the way to restore this? carbonwrap is nice, other than that?

    Other than that, not much else unfortunately (that I know of). Some people have had limited success using shoe polish I think but it only fills in the scratches, won't get rid of them. Carbon Wrap is relatively cheap and you wont feel like youve dirtied your car.

    Of course you could do what I did and try and source a replacement panel :D but good luck finding one not scratched lol

  3. wow, you guys makes me wanna do it too, will show up some after pics

    anyone knows how to do the leather look like the sides of that center console? i need to repaint that area as well, the paint got chipped easily in my car for some reason.

    Assuming I'm talking about the same panel, the sides are actually vinyl not painted. Once they're scratched they're scratched (typically from pulling the head unit out and resting the metal brackets on there). I am actually considering 3M 1080 carbon wrapping them.

  4. Thanks mate yeah it was a load of fun through the twisties! Was a struggle to keep straight as I haven't had an alignment since coilovers and wheels, constantly kept pulling to the side lol

    Will be keen on more shenanigans in the future!

  5. fusion, i'm very interested in your hazard lights and glove box lights - can you share your links to the bulbs?

    Hazard switch light i used from 666dans LED package (the climate control pack IIRC), he has some really small ones in it, just needed a bit of soldering to fit.

    Glove box is just a T5 wedge from jaycar IIRC!

  6. Surely you've replaced other bulbs on your car? ie. interior lights, parker lights, licence plate lights? Same thing for the tail lights. Just bulbs. So yes, ebay. Except for the big ring (single bulb) I managed to get a very unique LED bulb - my mate had them custom made for his car by AXIS (i think) in japan, and so they're a one off - but he's selling his car so i got the bulbs =)

    Lol, me so far:

    front parker lights

    front xenon lights

    interior dome light

    map light

    instrument cluster lights

    triple meter lights

    climate control lights

    hazard switch light

    glove box light

    reverse lights

    boot interior light

    cigarette lighter light

    ignition barrell light

    rear license plate light

    and im sure i've missed some..

    I am LED master :D . Yes they are all available online :)

  7. I've always used Amsoil 10W40 in my R34, no complaints at all. 86,000km and 10W40 is holding up fine considering I bought the car with a leaky cam cover seal. If you want to try thinner oils make sure you go down in viscosity gradually and that your block doesn't have hairline cracks and seals are in good condition as the thinner oil will escape easier.
