Guyz guyz plz...

STFU OR GTFO!!

lolz..

Kiss and make up...

I don't think the goal was for any of us (aside from me) to get pissed and then work on the car... My impression was for everyone (bar me, who is by this stage, pissed), to work on the car, and then BBQ and drinkies time afterwards, which consisted only of a couple of drinks (which for me, consists of a couple of dozen..).. Anyway, yeah...

Puttin my coilovers in this weekend anyways, so its less for me to do on the day...lol

sweeet, coilovers are in, looks so good and was piss easy to do...

So anyways, whats goin on with this service thang? Maybe you guys should post dates so we can organize something ya know?

if that's the garage in your house man you have one massive garage lol

i vote for the 7th or 14th of June (provided they are both Saturday's?)

if i can't make one then i can make the other

what does everyone else think?

lol, hell no, i wish i had a garage that big, i can barely fit the astra in mine haha

I vote 14th o June as ima need that time to get some cash up, as i quit my job today...

but yeah, should be good to go by then i reckon, anyone got a place we can use, or am i still going to have to try and get a workshop?

who has no/lenient parents...

who has a BBQ

who has an esky

who can fit at least 10 cars from within their private property space

and who is patient...?

answer = party and service at their house...

food and beverages provided by those getting their car serviced = win win for everyone

okay, i need to replace my fan belt too... where do we get all this sh*t from?

i may... thats MAY be able to get all the 100k service parts from a friend at toyota... she can get them from nissan for $360... dont quote me on that though, ill let you know tomorrow if its true... someone has to have a big enough driveway or garage to do it in?

Didnt someone offer a garage in that thread you had about ya yellow Andrew??

I have a 2 car garage, plus room for another 2 cars on a VERY steep driveway, as well as room for 1 car on the lawn, plus about 4-5 on the verge. Its very spread out, but it can work. Oh yeh, and one down the back of the garage. You can access the bonnet if you reverse it in, but hard to get in or out unless you park it right to 1 side. We have a BBQ, few eskies, and my parents wont mind you guys coming over. Altho, if your car is lowered or has a kit, dont bother getting into the garage! Stay on the street.

But yeah, if that'll do, then your welcome to use mine

LOL 10 cars!!!

I dont think anyone got a big enough place for 10 cars... besdies im pretty sure theres no way u will get 10 cars done in a day....

Things will always go wrong when you working on cars, and take more time to fix...

Then plus the beer and food ..... Maybe 2 or 3 cars will get the full 100k service in a day... Theres a bit more too it then just changing timing belt... eg water pumps, all fluids as starters...

i personally got my timing belt done proffesionally by xspeed... Its not exactly something you want to stuff up on.

Although the rest i did my self.

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
