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.

    • Yeah 4wd (boosted) has a recess in the firewall for the booster, and 2wd is flat - the example in the link shows the flat surface. When you deleted the booster, did you just attach the factory slave cylinder directly to the recess in the firewall with no adaption?  
    • Yes, but no. You need to keep the mating surfaces bare (ie the flat faces where the caliper and upright pads touch the dogbone) and also the internal threads will remain bare (unless there are no internal threads - do they use nuts on all the bolts?). So you can slow down obvious external corrosion, but not all of it. Anodising would be required to provide decent protection to the alloy, but I'm not actually sure if you should anodise something that is all about the strength. Anodising does reduce strength significantly. Like, up to 50% on some alloys for high thickness coating.
    • Thanks   does painting on aluminium work or stop them from corroding?
    • 'Sgot nothing to do with them being Japanese. The climate in the north of Japan has similarities to the UK - the cars are made in the knowledge that they have snow and salt, and they rot there. Cars made in the US rot like buggery in the US. British cars have always rotted regardless of the weather. They will rot indoors in a climate controlled bubble! The brackets are not unsafe yet, but they will get that way. They may well corrode where the bolt threads are in contact and the bolts could just jump out without warning.
    • So unsafe would you say now?   little bit of has come off, guess road salt is a nightmare for Japanese car. Mx5 here have a well known issue or rotting
