Was coming over a hill near a lake at around 4am after a big nite and as i just come over the crest this thing appears in my headlights right in front of the bonnet. It was just a flash and then wham right into the windscreen. I freaked out and ducked cause i thought it would go through. Turns out it was one of those Ibis thingys, ya know those huge white birds with the long legs.

Very strange experience indeed

I whacked a cat in the GSR - saw it crossing the road, changed lanes to give a wide berth and then before you know, its freaked out, doubled back and gone right under the front passanger wheel.

Biggest thing in the skyline.....one hellave a big bug - there was a dull thud and then the most massive 'splat' mark I have ever seen. Hopefully, this will remain the largest thing I ever connect with in the speedskyzer....

not in my skyline, but in my 180 i hit a cow... does that count?

also I had a bird fly across the front of my car when i was driving at about 70ish and it neve flew out the other side.

I kept driving for about 1/2 hour more till i got home, then when i stopped the car i went out the front to try n scrape it out....

turns out the bird had sat in the area between the front abr and the FMIC and jus hopped off, and walked down the street with a slight limp... hitch hiking mofo...

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
