Myself and a few others were at WSID watchin the Top Fuel Event and I was not so lucky :/ car has dints and chips everywhere.

:(

omg sorry to hear guys, i was in the city for my job induction whole day, parked on the side street, only a few drop of rain..

:(

The Dent Man in Castle Hill does great work. But I know his phone is already flooded.

i live near him so i might goto him

im only gonna do my roof and chassis ....all the rest will be aftermarket parts...like cf bonnet, cf boot, vented fenders,cf doors (if i can source the parts...which i highly doubt it)

My car was parked in Cherrybrook at the shopping centre..

Pretty much every panel on the car is damaged, the bonnet and roof copped it the worst, and the windscreen has massive cracks all over it so you cant even see out properly.

Im in rooty hill where those tennis size hail stones came down cracking windows and denting cars, but I didnt see a hail stone over the size of a ping pong ball?

Thank goodness for that as we had two skylines parked outside plus the commondore.

anyone want to organize a paintless dent removal groupbuy thingy please???

I might try and do that through someone I know via my cousin. I'll bet he'll be flat chat for quite a while though.

I took some photos too, when I've uploaded them I'll link them to this thread. I'm only around 5-10 minutes from James' (lingeringsoul) parents' house, right on the border of Toongabbie and Seven Hills.

Man, guitar hero makes you oblivious to the world around you...

:/

anyone know how much it would cost to get a bonnet resprayed black? it's for a s1 r33 gtst

I've been trying to source a black one off the forums but they're hard to come by in that colour.

if it's not that expensive I might just purchase a different colured one, respray it and sell my cf vented bonnet

Edited by into oblivion

i work at trivett honda blacktown and every single car is f*cked here. Some of the dents are huge. And down the road a heartland holden even their showroom got f*cked.

I'm so lucky though i have to quote each car here.....nooooooot

Holy shit it hailed????

We didn't get any in five dock.. I hope my car is alright.. I only just canceled the insurance not long ago..

Does anyone know if the eastern suburbs got hit?

That's crazy, I live in Pymble, and know that WRX through friends of friends that work at the same Dominoes... In fact, I saw it parked there today...

I seriously didn't notice shit... did it even rain in pymble?

Man, guitar hero makes you oblivious to the world around you...

HAHAHA ye I hear that :/!

But ye I was freakin lucky that i saw him run out of Dominos to move the car. The hail i saw there was proly around ping pong ball size...big enough to do some decent damage.

Would not hav had a clue where else to go

i saw that on the news

talk about flash storm, no warnings nothing!

A new paintjob woula been nice :P

I heard a massive clap of thunder, and that prompted me to check the BOM website. I saw the severe thunderstorm warning, and BOLTED out of my house to bring the cars in. I got all of them under covers except my brothers car when i started getting belted with massive hail stones. I was so lucky I decided to check.. Had a Lexus, Landcruiser, Patrol, Skyline, and an Outback out in the open!

My bro's car is stuffed though - every panel, half a huge tree fell into our pool, i got a cut on my head and bruises all over my back from trying to cover my brothers car...

all my windows are broken from it :D

ouch :)

...and bruises all over my back from trying to cover my brothers car...

ouch :P

Me too re: bruises.

Also got a semi-fat lip atm from being punched in the face by a big bit of hail. It's gone down a bit thankfully.

lol, how stupid are we. "PROTECT THE CARS!! PROTECT THE FREAKING CARS!!! what? If I got hit in the wrong spot I could get killed? Shutup man, I've gotta PROTECT THE FREAKING CARS!#!!!!"

    • IMG_8641.mov     She doesn’t sound the best but starts with out using any gas now. I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub
    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
