Spotted lots of GTR's up at CRD, including GZ R33's :rofl:

EDIT: Oh for those who also have seen HPI 5 (I think it was 5), there was an extremely phat customer car sitting at CRD... something along the lines of a white Prime Garage Sil80 (yes, its the real one) :wassup:

sounds like supafly

Spotted: a Footlong spanner that had been left loose in my engine by Jarred from our beloved garage, over 3 months ago!!! i found it on Sunday and it had worked its way down under my fanbelt and radiator, i dont even want to think about what damage could have been done if it had caught any moving parts. But fortunately it must have missed everything and i'll be returning it next week.

spotted a black r32 gtst with skylines australia sticker on front bumper at wake field on saterday ( i know who's car this is but im sorry i forgot your name :P

Yeah 'twas me, saw yours and the other 32 and the 300, just forgot to post them up, did you put your car on the track? how about that old school strolla with the 202 and locker? saw that thing on two wheels a couple of times!

Andrew (VR33), are you sure theyre a good shop then? if theyre gonna leave their tools lying around like that, id hate to think what happens to cars,

Also, how didnt you see it for so long? surely the people that have been looking at your car wanted to see the engine???

yeah they are good, very good, but Ed's apprentice just messed up.

I was'nt the one that found it, it was a potential buyer, i popped the hood and after he had a good look around, he said, " does that come with the car?" pointing. so i had a look and sure enough there it was. I dont really bother looking in my engine bay, theres no reason for me to.

Im not happy about the fact that it was there and the damage it could have done could have been enormous (including crashing at high speed) but it wont effect me going there in future, they are great guys, and top notch mechanics, Jarred just messed up.

    • The values for HID colour are also defined ~ see https://www.legislation.gov.au/F2006L02732/latest/text  ~ goto section 3.9 onwards ....
    • So, if the headlights' cutoff behaviour (angles, heights, etc) are not as per 6.2.6.1.1 without automatic levelling, then you have to have to have automatic** levelling. Also, if the headlight does not have the required markings, then neither automatic nor manual adjusters are going to be acceptable. That's because the base headlight itself does not meet the minimum requirement (which is the marking). ** with the option of manual levelling, if the headlight otherwise meets the same requirements as for the automatic case AND can be set to the "base" alignment at the headlight itself. So that's an additional requirement for the manual case. So, provided that the marking is on the headlight and there is a local manual adjustment back to "base" on the headlight, then yes, you could argue that they are code compliant. But if you are missing any single one of these things, then they are not. And unlike certain other standards that I work with, there does not seem to be scope to prepare a "fitness for purpose" report. Well, I guess there actually is. You might engage an automotive engineer to write a report stating that the lights meet the performance requirements of the standard even if they are missing, for example, the markings.  
    • Vertical orientation   6.2.6.1.1. The initial downward inclination of the cut off of the dipped-beam to be set in the unladen vehicle state with one person in the driver's seat shall be specified within an accuracy of 0.1 per cent by the manufacturer and indicated in a clearly legible and indelible manner on each vehicle close to either headlamp or the manufacturer's plate by the symbol shown in Annex 7.   The value of this indicated downward inclination shall be defined in accordance with paragraph 6.2.6.1.2.   6.2.6.1.2. Depending on the mounting height in metres (h) of the lower edge of the apparent surface in the direction of the reference axis of the dipped beam headlamp, measured on the unladen vehicles, the vertical inclination of the cut off of the dipped- beam shall, under all the static conditions of Annex 5, remain between the following limits and the initial aiming shall have the following values:   h < 0.8   Limits: between 0.5 per cent and 2.5 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.0 per cent and 1.5 per cent   0.8 < h < 1.0   Limits: between 0.5 per cent and 2.5 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.0 per cent and 1.5 per cent   Or, at the discretion of the manufacturer,   Limits: between 1.0 per cent and 3.0 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.5 per cent and 2.0 per cent   The application for the vehicle type approval shall, in this case, contain information as to which of the two alternatives is to be used.   h > 1.0   Limits: between 1.0 per cent and 3.0 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.5 per cent and 2.0 per cent   The above limits and the initial aiming values are summarized in the diagram below.   For category N3G (off-road) vehicles where the headlamps exceed a height of 1,200 mm, the limits for the vertical inclination of the cut-off shall be between: -1.5 per cent and -3.5 per cent.   The initial aim shall be set between: -2 per cent and -2.5 per cent.
