Ben - how long have you had the solar panels? I've never noticed them before. Also that photo looks like you used a blue filter, what gives?

I had the lighting profile on the camera set to incandescent (rather than auto), which compensates for a lack of blue light given off by incandescent bulbs - when I went outside, the natural blue light was amplified. Looks kinda cool tho.

Have had the solar panels for a fair while now, 3000 watts worth. Enough to power half of the house...

WTF they wouldnt let me pay by month they wanted a full year up front! bastards!!

Yeah I think if you pay the first year in full, then the next year you can do by the month??? I dunno.

My Skyline is insured through Shannons full comp, which is paid monthly. My daily is insured 3rd party through Just Car, but at $306 for the whole year, I pay it in full.

i got assignment due midnight tonight so i prob wont be able to make it :( especially the way im avoiding it right now.

never beleive what they say about uni paying off in the long run, crime pays. uni does not :P

Bastards indeed, just in July I took out a policy on my 33, and yes it is an extra 600 bucks over a year when I'm paying by the month. Gotta save and have cash in full for next year :(

    • Pre-empting heat management  1. The Kraken manifold will be ceramic coated 2. Just purchased some peel and stick heat shielding stuff from car builders, I'll cover some of the firewall behind the dump and a little on the cam cover, this will be done prior to installation as I have ample room to get where I need to now before that realestate has more bits in the way, I'm also planning to modify the OEM heat shield to go back on, but that won't happen until after installation so I know where to hack it up, I'll also cover it with some some peel and stick to neaten it up after the hacking 3. As the dump is stainless with a flex joint coating isn't really a option, and wrapping isn't recommended for a stainless dump, so once it is installed I'll grab some shielding from car builders to cover the dump, as it has some stand off, it "shouldn't" cause any issues and it "should" just keep the radiant heat away from " melty engine bay stuff" Not for heat management, but I've grabbed some more black crinkle coat to paint all the shiny intake pipes, I'll pick the pipe work up prior to installation and use the paint booth and big oven at work to cure them, I'll then wrap them with some bubble wrap so they stay nice during installation

    • YO- have been searching and searching for an a31 chassis plug pinout, or someone who knows which wire is for tach.  ceffy was flooded past dash during a hurricane.  having an electrical gremlin appear. tach is wonky reading consistent with a short, and on occasion the right side of my speedo lighting will flicker just for a second then go back to normal.  if no pinout available does anyone know if the tach harness opens or branches anywhere behind the dash? im suspecting a possible root behind the radio as there are more shorts in that area on the accessory loop.
    • Means something is not set up right, tune/calibration related.  
    • Finally replaced the previous temporary mesh indicator surrounds (temporary was the last 10+ years 😂) with a 3D printed GTR style version for the front indicators. I think it looks a lot nicer than the old setup and at least the indicators now point in the correct direction rather than angled off. Needed a little bit of tweaking to deal with the intercooler piping but got there in the end. Old and new photos below.
