Yeh, schoolies was the best. An entire week of drinking and s3x and beach! Sometimes all 3 at once :laugh: I would love to go again... but I don't think it's the same when you're legally allowed into clubs and to buy alcohol :P

hrm.... i've always wondered about this toolies thing....

what 'defines' a toolie?

is it anyone over the age of 17 on the goldcoast during these 2 weeks?

my schoolies was 5 or 6 years ago... yet i have been down there during schoolies probably 2 or 3 times since.... but to go clubbing etc, not to try and get into some 16-18 y/o chicks apartment... though i wouldn't be complaining if that did happen :woot:)

as long as she was 18 and not 16, otherwise you look sorta creepy. lol

i cant beleive it been 2 years since my schoolies, from the things that i remember (not alot) it still feels like yesterday. and the sumo suits were awesome. im heading down :wub:

Schoolies was great, it was hard getting alcohol back in the day. but now i detest anything schoolies related, its more of a pain in the arse especially for traffic. if you do want to drive into surfers make sure u have insurance.

Now you can't have double standards like that...

I had a great time at schoolies on the coast. We boozed up in the units then headed to the beach / streets... and you've got to expect that kids these days are no different. However, kids these days only want to destroy things and piss peope off which is what schoolies it turning into...

i just came back from schoolies today. it was pretty awesome

There were quite a few imports down there, especially this HOT R33 GTR that had an autosalon sticker on it.

But then i saw an R32 which had the boot hit with bottles and a dint in the LHS door. I felt quite sorry for the owner of that black 32, looks like it will be quite expensive to fix.

      3D printing fun

      By Sean'O · Posted

      Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.

      When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
