Delayed spotted:a clean,dark coloured R32 GT-R turning from Canberra Avenue onto Ipswich Street on Wednesday night about 7.30ish. The driver discovered the loud pedal as they were level with the Mobil servo'-sounded gooooood!

Also spotted last night,a wingless GTS-T R32 in civic,silver with a FMIC and neat,almost-BBS-style rims. Looked super cool,IMHO. Anyone on here? Chitami's,maybe?

Oh,yeah;also spotted an unloved R33 GT-R parked at the Westpac in Fyshwick yesterday. She was in need of some TLC,which suprised me as almost every 'Line I know of,regardless of model or age,seems to be the prized possesion of the owner. Maybe the owner is waiting for their Meguires prize pack to get sent from *insert fave' magazine title here*...

i think i've seen it around too. is it dark in color, like a blue or something and stock? there's one which hangs around at inline, it has a big dent in the drivers rear qtr panel and is just generally filthy..... *tisk tisk* :no:

Yep,it's a dark grey,dinged in many places,and covered in bird crap. Ah well,I guess there has to be one unloved Skyline somewhere:I s'pose this one is it! I've got an idea...give it to me to get looked after!!

Spotted a white Stagea cruising past Hume at about 6 Friday night. I was on the side of the road with my mate and his yellow 300ZX, which he'd just smashed into the back of someone who'd pulled out infront of him. :D

Also, a black Kia Mentor drove past and the d*ckhead laughed out the window at my mate. Funny thing is, YOU'RE DRIVING A KIA MATE SO THE JOKES ON YOU.

Gotta say that it sounded more like a wailing wastegate than a shagged bumpstop...And yes,the car in question seemed gunmetal grey...and had nice shiny alloys...may well have been you,'Gus! It certainly didn't sound stock,that's for sure!

What did I see at the Shannons show today....

- Bodykitted gunmetal grey R32 GTS-t with a V-Spec II decal on the boot lit parked amongst the Street Rides group

- White R32 GT-R with big front bar & front mount parked behind the Aston Martin area

- Silver R32 GTS-t and dark blue R32 GT-R parked on the street behind all the MG's

- Super sleeper RB25DET converted R30 Skyline Ti, you'd NEVER guess just to look at it.

- Yellow EH Holden ute with an RB25DET conversion (very interesting)

- very racy looking Ferrari (F355?) with a GT wing and all other associated accessories

and I could go on and on and on and on.

Oh and had a bit of a chat with Stinkypoo and GT-Passage.

    • 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 
    • Dissimilar metal corrosion. Aluminium is less noble than steel/iron, and will corrode preferentially when in contact with it and a conductive solution (ie, wet road salt). Tends to suggest that those brackets should be made in steel for a shitty climate like the UK.
