ouch.....lucky you didnt knock yourself out mate

With the number of times I have had these diffs out of cars my biggest fear was that it would drop it on my head and now it has happened. Luckily I wasn't using the pit so it only fell 30cm before hitting me not 1m like if I was in the pit. This is the first time that I had someone "lending a hand" and i think they pulled it off the sway bar which is why it dropped. so I think for now on I'll stick with doing it by my self

^^^ if they are on pillar and restricting vision they are a no go. but as far as i know guages are allowed anywhere aslong as they dont restrict any vision out the car.. hence why chad would have passed through regency

hmm Nissan got smart when they made my car :(

so i have a "fibre creations" nismo front bar that has no holes. I can get it paitned cheap, but i need to get it fitted, holes drilled and work done, then it gets painted and then i can fit it after painting. Do you think places like all type crash would bother with a small job like that? Any recommendations?

UNfkingBELIEVEABLE

SO I killed the cressida right, drove over 10kays with the needle on H, had the rattle of death going the whole time and also managed to cook the oil in it.

I topped up the oil/coolant today, turned the key and after a few lazy chugs, she fires up and settles to a reasonably good idle, given the previous abuse. I also drove it a further few kays with not a single problem (it hesitated slightly when moving off from a standstill on a steep hill).

I just can't fathom how it could take so much abuse and still run and drive like nothing happened. Fking 7M is damn near unbrakeable :(

When I first bought the R32 going on 8years ago the coolant temp sensor was dicky.. First summer engine temp went from 1/4 to half. I was wondering why the car would get really sluggy and on occasions stall and then not start until it would cool. Water would constantly blow out of the overflow.

Summer past; replaced the coolant temp sensor to realise it was constantly driving around on H. Maxed out the gauge. :S

It went on to clock another 100,000km's. ;)

    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time. Even with R33 GTSTs looking at gumtree. You have an auto with a bitsa interior for 35k. Another one needs an engine rebuild and asking 24k. And then you have a stock in better than average condition for 45k. Nobody is ever going to pay these prices.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
