Nah man - It sux to be me.....

The S12 PIG is on to it's 2nd rego whilst being in the shop - Shocking......

It's not the shop's fault though - I keep getting them to do stuff to it.

I think they want it out of there as much as I do.....

I hate missing drive days - already lost so much $$ putting down $$ and not getting out there ... bugger

Poor me !

Hmmmm interesting...

Add me to the Bummed Out "Why is my car in pieces instead of doing laps at EC and Oran?" Crew.

I *may* get out there for a sticky beak if I have some spare time :O

UAS have just installed a 2nd oil cooler to the GTR, and it looks like Im going to need it. The forecast is for 36 Deg tomorrow, so its going to be a stinker!!!!!!!

I will bring some beers!

Fatz, you lazy bastted, have you managed to get me a spot yet?

Fatz and i and are actually at the moment a dual entry as i dont have a car for the track day. So technically there is 1 car spot available that the organiser do not know about.

However I was planning on taking my company car out for a one or two easy sessions - however i dont really want to use it.

Also i am more than likely end up picking up Fatz's spare shitter and use it on the day.

    • Not much. It's barely more than an hour's labour. So that-ish plus a boot, clamp strap, some grease.   But, being an R32 GTR, when it is up in the air and the driveshaft is out, about $9k worth of other problems will become visible.
    • Yes, as above. The welding is an easy enough job. Proper reupholstering, perhaps less so. These, and pretty much all seats of the same era (and probably still) rely on molded foam parts to make the shapes. That foam is the yellow detritus visible in the photos. And it is difficult to replicate. I didn't want the pain, so went aftermarket seats instead. But for "saving a classic".... it's probably worth the kidney and left nut that a trimmer will want to redo them.
    • Way too accurate.... source: got flogged by an unsuspecting i30N last night... Super tidy looking 32 though, hopefully you find the time and funds to get it back on the road and enjoy it again!
    • Source: This thread, and the thread this thread spawned from. Alternative take: Is heat actually an issue for the use case of this vehicle? I wonder if it actually would be. Nekminit
    • Considering the price of GTR stuff now the answer is yes. That's a straight forward TIG or even MIG job. I'd put extra tubing inside, for extra strength and weld it up. Then use the spare seat as an example to get the bolster rails in the correct position and the re-apolster. If you don't mind me asking what did you pay for the pair as they are?
