Hi all,

My names Scott. I'll be heading up to Brisbane from Melbournne within a month or two. Yet to find somewhere to live.....

w000t! another Melbournian moving up to QLD..

I moved up here in april last year for work. Shame you're not comin any sooner, I'm actually lookin for a housemate to share a place with starting 1st of march.

Hi All,

I've just moved down from Townsville to Brisvegas a few weeks back. Small confession, I've got a '94 GTiR :) It's busted at the moment but Dan's agreed to do the rebuild which I'm stoked about and he suggested I log on to meet a few more people and learn some stuff.

Anyway, G'day!

Bish

Hey All,

I am Melly, Just moved up from Canberra :P Have a pink/purple pearl R33 GTS-T Series 2.

Live in Cooroy and work at Hogs Breath in Noosa and Mooloolaba so if you see me around there somewhere wave or say hi :P

Cheers!!

Howdy!

My name's Dave, I'm from Norman park. I'm new to nissan. Well actually my first car was the original datsun pulsar (was lots of fun out on the farm), but I was too young to have it on the road......legally ;)

I've just bought a 2000 stagea rs s2, i'd decided a stagea was the perfect car for me. This one was advertised for $12000 with 77k on the clock, and I got it for $9900 :blink: It was love at first sight. I'm hoping for a few steady upgrades over the years.

This looks like a great forum, with plenty of support. Thanks for having me

Dave-

Hi

Im Donna, 28, married, live on brissi northside @ mango hill. Got my 34 Skyline imported almost a year ago, and have enjoyed every second since. Been working towards one for a while and so far have done the usual mods, but as you all know its like opening a can of expensive worms! The list just gets longer! lol

Hope to see some of the brissi people out & about soon ........

Hi All,

I've been lurking on here for some time now without posting much or introducing myself. I'm on the R31 Skyline Club site a lot more.

I live in St Lucia and work around Northgate, I drive a grey HR31 GTS-X coupe which is now powered by a RB25DET NEO. So I expect to be on this forum a lot more to gain more knowledge in the twin cam engines.

I should try and get to some more of your events too, I've been to a couple of the massive skyline cruises but thats about it... None in my current car (my 3rd R31).

Hey, Paul here. just brought a r32 2 door.. live in Kallangur.. Run a tyre shop in Bowen hills...

Which tyre shop if you don't mind me asking?

jeez, they're comn in by the boatload... i mean... r33-load.

HaHa, I like the attitude around here already :ninja:

Cheers,

Martin

    • The second part yes, the first part about easy VE calculation is something I've seen a few people talk about online.
    • You 100% could do that, would save money on a gym membership lol. But yeah, getting a cordless orbital sander will feel priceless coming from doing it manually.  Good luck with it mate
    • I initially was going to do the whole car with a block then realised, it would be a bigger monster of the job 😂 I guess that's all part of the learning process. I appreciate all that advice, I think I got a good idea on how to tackle this whole job.
    • I admire your efforts with the scuff pad.  As a mere mortal, I use this for the baulk of my sanding work- https://sydneytools.com.au/product/milwaukee-m18bos125-0-18v-li-ion-cordless-125mm-5-random-orbital-sander-skin-only Yes you can easily create a low spot while sanding. There are 2 types of filler, 1 part of 2 part. The 2 part filler will get used for large corrections and the 1 part filler will get used for pin holes and areas that only need slight filling.  Depending on how zealous you are with the sander (very easy to do with a power tool) or if you are chasing rust etc, yes those low spots will need to get filled or you will end up with a very obvious defects in the paint.  Using the guide coat and large sanding block, high and low areas will be revealed (watch youtube videos for a good visual on this). Its up to you if you think its worth the effort to make the car completely flat before you spray it (you make it flat by filling the low areas).  At the end of the day, it comes down to time. The end result comes from the level of prep put in to the car. If you want a perfect result, you have to put in the time during the prep stage or else it will be impossible to achieve a perfect result during the spraying process.
