[SA Cars Spotted Thread #3]

[Nightcrawler]

Spotted Madaz saving my life this arvo by picking up and delivering to me up a vital brake line component that I snapped, rendering my car undrivable.

Thanks a million mate!!!!!!

Luke - no need to be sorry bud - it's all good!

Good to see Steve pulled through! If you had called me 30 mins prior I would have been able to help out. Thought you were gonna have a "boys day" for the brakes anyways?

Spotted a nice silver 33 GTS-t near my place on Grenfel Rd this arvo, BB plates from memory

[Carbon 34]

That was me, spotted your car a mile away. I was just leaving motor reg with my new plates

thought it might have been you,,, i get to visit rego in the am... joy... more money out to my fav's

[Carbon 34]

That could be me but i drive the actual car as i live south and drive the 32

might have been you,, i drive in a daze/haze sometimes... lol

I work with a chick who drives a yellow fully kitted fluro coloured 33. Might of been her.

its a full on yellow car, think it has the inside done up too? someone should ask her to join in SAU, good car for shows. more girls in the club etc

... thought you were gonna have a "boys day" for the brakes anyways?

Yeah mate I was, but the pads were down to metal n metal when I braked hard on the front passenger side, so since I had a bit of free time today thought I'd put in the QFM HPX front pads I had sitting around. Then I thought - well if I am going to have the calipers off, then I might as well chuck on the rotors. Then I busted the hard barke line between the rotor and the brake line, so I thought I might as well put the set of braided lines on I had sitting around. Then I thought I might as well do the rears as well.

So 9.5 hours and many grazed knuckes later, here I am.

So, today I did:

- Fitted front RDA slotted/passivated rotors (couldn't get rear rotors off - was 11pm by the time I got to them and didn't want to make the noise)

- Fitted front QFM HPX pads

- Fitted front and rear ADR compliant braided brake lines

- Flushed entire brake system with Motul Dot5 and refilled/bled

- Painted all calipers gold

Result is below

spotted yesterday, a blue r33 look alike of carls r32 in south area

That could be me but i drive the actual car as i live south and drive the 32

could have been him as he is the new owner and its getting the km up now. instead of my weekend only car. he is looking after it good by what i have been told. yay im so glad. didnt spend all that time and effort to watch it get trashed.

im getting edgy to build something else tho i miss it
