If anyone is looking for work I recommend asking Tony or Hays Recruitment. Tony put me onto these guys, signed up yesterday applied for a few jobs and got a call first thing this morning. Oh well fingers crossed. Downside is working in the city although that means less petrol, less k's on the coon and more money towards the next car.

Evening chaps

Anyone know much about hubs? Specifically I have to replace some wheel studs on my rear left wheel (33 GTST), the sucker won't move (much like when Dan came and helped with the Laser :P ) and I've thrown everything I can at it...breaker bars, impact wrench, air ratchet... nothing.

Which way should it be turned? Clockwise or anticlockwise? I've been trying both in spurts but I'd like to be sure of one direction and just smash all my weight into it

Congratz mate!

Great to hear that Hays was able to help you out.

If anyone did want to see if I could pull a few strings to get them something then just PM me.

Keaton should have my email as well, so you could just grab it off him if he doesn't mind. :P

Was it a temp or perm role?

Congratz again!!

Nice score col. Now hurry up and buy a GTS-R and sell me the exhaust manifold and heatsheild from the RB20DET-R

Currentyl considering buying an GTS-X with a RB20DET-R in it.... tis a fine looking machine.

Hey guys, whats been happening?

Mate the wheel studs are a press fit so you need to push them out not twist them. Have seen it done with a hammer but this isn't the best way because the hits also smash the axle bearing and can cause it to get flat spots on the rollers leading to failure. If your going to do it this way then you should put a nut just on the stud to stop it from mushrooming. The other way you can do it is to use a ball joint remover although have never used one for this. Acording to the manual you can't remove the hub. Unsure as to why but. To reinstall space it out with washers and tighten with a nut to pull it back in. You'll have to remove the disk and pads to do this as well.

Hope this helps mate

By the way has anyone seen a 32 gtr box forsale around in brissy? Mine split a seal and dumped all the oil and now i've lost 4th syncro and probably cooked it :( Just after a secondhand one at the moment. Pm if you know where one is thanks :)

Cheers Matt

Lol i just opened that up and got no idea what that means or what it gives you. Mind you I'm just a mechanic so not really good at that stuff :)

I approve of this plan as it will hopefully result in one less iPhail in the world :)

This should be interesting.

My iPhone has turned to crap after the OS update.

Well, crap turning into crapper crap. Does a double negative make a positive?

In this case no

    • Getting Dangerously close to being ready to go back in the car. Rockers in with clearance castings now (and a quick check with the USA for the torque settings for the larger custom bolts) Covers and ported FAST Manifold sitting on there. Not fully tightened down as there's some clearancing required for the water pump with the earlier LS1 water pump styles. Example of the clearancing needing to be done: The body has to be ground a little but I'm struggling finding an actual piece of it. The later variant of water pump resolves the issue as the manifold was designed around it. It only came on the VZ LS1 in Australia, it got a different pulley for Gen4 motors. (it also costs $450... vs... $0).

    • Doing some height adjustment on front suspension on a v35 and noticed this. The passenger side looks correct. So wondering what's happened to the drivers side?
    • Oh...I have the electric mirrors as well iirc ...they're in the same state as just about every other R31 door mirrors, with the 3 plastic screw towers broken/cracked in the plastic molding. All the interior is 'dry', so the mirror switches etc likely all work fine. Some pics below of the trimmer pieces ~ looks to me like previous owner, painted chrome finished trims with black paint ...ergo, the chrome underneath is likely a-ok... ...starts to look yukky posting stuff like this, how much did it cost in fuel on your last sortie up this way?...me just thinking aloud, borrow someone else's 4cyl to cut costs, come do your own pick'n'pull like before to save me some bother...hehe.. but whatever, I'll just earmark bits I know you want, because the way this is all panning out, I'll be able to retire the R31 from daily duty at long last, replacing it with a Subaru wagon I'm lining up in the wings...ergo, my attitude towards the donor pinny shell is starting to wane a bit, and I'm more than happy to help you out there... Like you say though, no rush...and I'll guarantee we won't be moving too far from this locale at any rate 😎
    • Cool, I’m just down Sydney today. Not much time to get online.
