On another note, goodluck mate!

;)

Thanks mate.

Yeah some ppl have no heart apparently

yes but he has a good point...

its not about heart...its about someones hard earned money.....

and its different if it was for family or friends...

not everyone is a charity organisation......

at the end of the day.... i in favour of his reply, because at the end of the day...its the owners risk...

and his responsibility if the car gets damaged etc..... it really isnt a cheap car...majority of people not only for this forum...but in society cannot afford one.

i have mentioned this post to a no# of friends and they think the same....

no offence to your needs or post...and congraulations on your wedding.....

Ok yeah i understand where your coming from. And yeah i, in a way completely agree. It is a risk.

But you take a risk everytime you drive your car.

That'd be like going to maccas to get a big mac, and saying to the counter person "You should be giving me money because i had to bring my car down here. I risked getting it damaged to get this burger"

it'd be a 30-40 minute drive...$200...easy money. And if something does happen...you've got money to fix it (bad joke...please do not think i'm serous in that comment)

man i would do this if i was in sydney and has a 34 gtr lol, in all seriousness its a great opportunity to show off ur ride that you love dearly i mean damn if u were so worried about any damages sell it and go buy a little 88 ford laser for $500 bcuz thats driving anything can happen, we buy cars to show them off and u cant be worried about what may or may not happen and u have to remember no such things as "accident's", if u do it and wana be a hoon and stack well then cmon thats ur fault he is not asking you to do burnouts or drift corners just a little cruise and have everyone look at ur car may be difficult with a commodore with ya's lol jokes, its also a good chance to make some new friends, be involved in something different, and have some nice free photos taken of ur car

good luck with the wedding bro

r33 ftw though :)

yes it is easy money...

but it will sux big time for the owner IF something does happen.

it is always a risk every time you take... ANY, car out of a drive way...

but like i said, its a pretty prestigious car... with an estimated 65,000 - 75,000$ price tag...... thats a BIG call dude...

can you IMAGINE renting one?? (if there are any places that do hire..and beleive me ive asked his years ago and nobody offered this car)

it depends on how you see it...i think the $200 is not enough at all...regardless of the hospitality you get.

insurance premiums are very expensive...and the rarity of the car.....

ive not heard of anyone rent out imports..even EVOs or STIs....... let alone a GT-R

any good luck though

There's another R34 GT-R owned by a pharmacist friend of mine. He only last week had his front lip sanded & painted at my panelbeater.

Victor may have retired from chemist duties, so I'll chase him up at his old chemist at Emu Plains on 11/03 Nick

Cheers,

Tez

Aw shucks! Not really... I still pick my nose in ma sleep lol.

It'll be hard to get a car on a Wednesday I expect.

Victor's car is Mushroom Silver.

Ron's is black and It'd be more desirable to get a loan of him/his.

We'll wait and see.

Cheers, T

You really are a 'Good Samaritan', Terry! :wacko:

The amount of times that you've helped out fellow SAUers with your knowledge coming out in your posts has not gone unnoticed Jamie!!! :3some:

It doesn't take too much effort for helpers like you to keep the teamship going which makes for a strong forum. :):(:)

Just a bit of LUV. :banana::banana::banana:

I seriously dont know what the big fuss is about, is not like he is driving your car or taking possession of it. I drive my R34 GTR V2 every day, i bought the car to drive it and i let insurance take care the rest.

At the end of the day, is a faking car. I try to aviod any possible chance getting it damage, if i need to drive it to Redfern whatever, i still drive it there.

Unfortunally Nick, i just sold my GTR. I see if i can borrow my mates one or if you want a 300kw STI let me know.

Hey mate,

STI is probably no good...if you can ask your mate about his GTR tho that would be awesome!

Thanks heaps!!

Hey guys,

Come on someone else has to be keen? Surely. I know its a wednesday, but come on! Unless you're on a stupidly good paying job (which if you own a 34 GTR you probably are) - its quick easy money...

pretty please????

    • It's impossible to convey what it will feel like to get the right torque. But you can develop a feel for it. A 900mm breaker bar is.....f**king huge. I only use a normal ~400mm one. But with 900mm being very nearly a metre, and the right torque being in the order of 100Nm, then you're going to need a bit over 100N of force, which is about 10 kg. So if you practice using the bar pulling up, instead of pushing down, then it will be about the same effort as lifting a 10kg bucket of water. That's what the pressure against your fingers should feel like. Ish. If you use a more typical length breaker, then it's about twice that. So a good 20 litre bucket, or a little bit more.
    • Also, if anyone has a torque wrench around Williams Landing area and can lend it to me for like 5 mins - I got 4 bottles of Furphy left and I’ll throw that in with a Happy meal 😂
    • So today I decided to bleed my brake fluid, which meant to the wheels came off the car at my garage for the first time. I only had a 90cm breaker bar with me and I noticed that some 1 or 2 lug nuts were a bit hard to get loose (from when the shop did the coilovers) Now.... when it came to putting them back on, I didn't want to put all my weight and overtighten them. So I hand tightened as much as possible and then put normal pressure on the edge of the breaker bar and tightened it until I couldn't turn it anymore without putting in an effort. Do you think that is tight enough? Or is that still too tight?  They are tighter than finger tight. Last thing I want is to have them strip or warp sh*t. But hard times mean I can't just go down to Supercheap and get a torque wrench 🥺
    • Dunno what to tell you, when I look at it on Consult I can see this warmup timing map kicking in around 40C coolant temp and it sticks around for a while:  At part throttle on the normal base timing map it peaks around ~43 degrees of timing or something like that, this warmup timing map drops it to like 12-15 degrees. 
    • I don't think that's what you're seeing. Something else doing that. The only time I've seen it get so retarded is when it's trying to control idle (in which case we're not talking about mapped timing tagets anyway) and when there is an extreme coolant temperature sensor fault. The RB26 ECU is essentially the same as the 20 ECU and I knew that ging inside out. There is no facility for it to retard that heavily on cold start. The OEMs never used to do it back then. I mean, shit, the catalyst is abotu 3 miles down the exhaust anyway. Early light-off was just a twinkle in some EPA arsehole's eye back then, not a regular engine control strategy.
