I swear the StagenWagen has it's own gravitational field for stupid motorists and suicidal wildlife! :banana:

Tonight's adventure started with much hated toward Holden drivers - one decided to wander into my lane and nearly take off my front end and then further down the road cut me off. I made it safely into town for a session at the pub for a mates 21st birthday then we went onto one of the local night clubs for some loud music and more sillyness (I didn't drink), we finished up there and I drove said mate and his girlfriend home.

Within 2mins of my mates house I skittled a possum, The front bar wasn't damaged at all however there was a nice 'snot stain' from whatever bodily fluids the possum wiped on the lip of the front bar. We got out and inspected the mess then proceeded on to the drop off point. I stopped in at a servo on the way home to wash the mess off the bar and grab an ice coffee. I jump back in and continue home, Within yet another 2mins of arrive home I skittled a Rabbit - same thing: no damage to the bar however this time there was a nice red stain left all up the air dam. Got home and hosed that one off.

:) Just one of those days.

you might find your car has a star trek style "cloaking device" like our Z does. It causes the car to become invisible to other motorists so they just change lanes into it, pull out in front of it, able along in the right lane ahead of it etc etc. All because your car is unfortunately invisible. It even causes people to reverse into you in car parks and open their doors into your car.

We are yet to find the off button in the z, so it hashad more hits than elvis. the highlight was when the uninsured l plater indicate left, pulled left and then turned right once we got beside him, but it has also by hit by a truck along the side, taxi down the other side, front bar knocked off in a car park. I am forgetting at least 2 more decent ones because I know it is up to its 3rd drivers side door skin.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
