*Bluprint has fond memories of Leshy turning up 2 years ago and leaving his car there, then coming back near the end of the show after going home for a nap

Hey, I was really really hung over that day, give me a break.

Also my car is not a skyline, sorry to burst the 30 car bubble.

With the Count just there and ppl having non Skylines in the list, I now have the tune "one of these things is not like the others...." from Playschool in my head ;)

I've heard of people putting there 32 headlights in the oven, to seperate the glass from the plastic backing to modify the lights etc, don't think you could do it with the indicators though.

4 weeks Till Marques in the park btw.

Yeah, I've also heard either oven or a heat gun to seperate the glass from the lighting assembly, then I guess you just glue it all back together when you're done

The soarer ones were the same deal. Don't do what my mate did and forget :P

Thanks guys,

I'll have a go with a heat gun first, I dont really like the idea of putting $200+ indicators in the oven...

bullet32 go and buy some Meguiars PlaticX (http://www.meguiars.com/?clear-plastic-care/PlastX-Clear-Plastic-Cleaner-Polish) and use that. I use it. Works wonders... just make sure as soon as you ploish it on POLISH IT OFF ,, it tends to stay on otherwise.

For once I'm prepared! All booked in with Details FX :P

hmm went to them last year and was not impressed. They did great work on "what you can see" i.e. main panels.. but they did not do the "nooks and crannys" .. eg when you open your boot the side of the boot wing,, the engine bay was a dissapointment too.. just my 2c

the best place to go is the place down the back of the shell servo in Woden. They do an awesome job, best detaillling ive ever seen. Though my car (and prob many other liners) can make it down their steep driveway (due to low front bars) :(

Are you sure your not talking of details fx in your second post they would be in that general area ??? I found the work they did on my skyline and forester was unreal on the surface but i agree they could have paid a little closer attention to some of the nooks and cranny's

    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
    • Ok...its taking me long enough to finally do this.  Feck financial security...heart disease will get me soon enough anyway So welcome to the garage..."Clem" Belsil80 has been running a 370Z in Super TT series. So after entering with him in last years Winton 300 i figured I  need my own car. Seems SAU Vic race cars need to be yellow....{tick} Reckon with enough motor i will be able to make up for the lack of talent and stay ahead of the 370Z... but the LS powered S13 and E36s are a ways up the road Aim is to have a car that doesnt stop or turn but has a bit of shed built motor with jam...maybe some cream  First step is getting this ex drift car log booked I am keeping faithful silver car. As the road-club car gets upgrades the race car wil get the sloppy seconds
    • Assuming that they will come off without damage at all.... i would have thought just pull straight up off the spindle with a something or other than can reach underneath. Have you searched for youtube vids of people doing similar on R34s or any other Nissan from the same vintage? They should be the same technique, in all likelihhood.
    • Keeping in mind that sandblasting is really aggressive on softer metals like cast alloy, and you can do damage that you might regret. For trash wheels, not a problem. For wheels with value/scarcity issues, etc.... perhaps a less aggressive media is a better choice?
    • Don't get all high and mighty. Experienced spanner wielders know exactly what effort is required to release an Oof.
