yeah i will give it some WD love tomorrow, then finish bleeding the brakes and i can drive it again :happy:

booked in for an epic expensive wheel alignment on thursday (getting the rear control arms bent to adjust camber)

Who is doing it? I'm happy with my alignment.. But not. Would like to get it checked by a 2nd party.

Lets share a fetus.

i thought tristan and you were sharing a fetus already? or did you not plant your seed deep down enough?

lol so was I. but I was too busy postwhoring on misfits to register an on SAU lol.

You know your old school when you know what misfits was,

lerl @ all the newbie plebs in here

Well 3 corners are down, one to do in the morning and then just got to replace my rear cross member bushes and its ready to get an alignment :happy:

All went relatively smoothly apart from getting the front upper link arms to line up with the holes properly lol. Rear shock was a prick to get off but got there in the end.

Looks much better now although I think the rear could still come down 10mm. We'll see how it looks once the other side has been done and its had time to settle :mad:

Pics are coming tomorrow :D

Did you put a coke can at the bottom?

y u want to sell it josh?

I'll do you a straight swap for the XF :happy:

I only bought it for the wheels, then had a soft spot for it as it went pretty well with the turbo, but alas like all my cars I grew tired of it. TBH, I find slow (In comparison to my 490rwhp R32) and I want something else that’s more track ready, or something that could be far more easier

    • A seat I find stupidly comfortable to sit in is the one in a friend's Merc Race Car. It even has the huge wings that wrap around your head. Best ever. Only issue is climbing through his scaffolding he put up in the doorway of the car... Ha ha ha. I sat in that seat for a couple of hours doing wiring. Another stupid comfortable seat I find, especially if my back is aching, is my OMP fixed back bucket seat too. I'll just sit on it when I'm exhausted in the garage sometimes to relax!
    • I just got off the phone with Dean from Vosta in Brisbane. They are the ones that do the replica seats and they have a shop full of seats for my to try out. Lovely guy.  I haven't decided whether to go genuine or replicas, I'm leaning towards Genuine at this point but who knows.  Also thinking the STRADIAs are the way to go VS the GIAS since they have a lower hip edge and would be easier to get into. Don't really like the idea of arm rests on the models to the right of this diagram either, maybe they can be removed?
    • From my own first hand experience, keeping power for a fun Street able skyline down at a responsive low 200 wheel KW, is the best. It makes it super drive able through the twisties, you're not just smashing mass wheel spin, or only able to open the throttle for a split second before being at absurd speeds. That said, plenty of people like being morons at more than double the speed limit on public roads and hence are happy with 600whp and seeing 200kmh fly up frequently and fast. Also, at that low 200, a GTR can still do a decent quarter mile, and with a bit of fancy  clutch work (foot, not the parts) can still beat many many cars in a traffic light gp, even in the wet.
    • Good news. So it went up to 16.2 volts as per the manual then dropped to 13.6v where it maintains that voltage. The sizzling sound stopped after that. All is looking ok. Car starts up same as usual.
    • As strange as this sounds (as they are fixed back), my Bride Xero CS seats are the most comfortable seats I've used.  I vote go genuine.  The only downside I've found is on very long drives, you can't reposition your body while driving. So even though its comfy, being locked in the same position eventually becomes uncomfortable. I find myself stopping every 3 or so hours to stretch my legs on long drives.
