Spotted Trozzle's car parked on the road out the front of Gentech in mitchell yesterday arvo

Yerp, was getting engineer's certificate at Canberra Motor Works. Unfortunately didn't get it due to a few things (one of which is worrying lol), however shouldn't be hard to fix up. Unfortunately I foresee having to cancel the rego on my car before the lack of defect clearance does it.

Something to do with the diff/cradle mounts is allowing the whole diff to move up/down around 10mm

Yeah you're right.. just a little worrying :/

Spotted Troy and Richard hugging each other as the sun went down over the lake. They looked to be eating takeaway.

Hope you boys had fun

Yours had a nice tune when it took off as well

I spotted a r31 parked outside of Pedders in Phillip as I dropped my car off for an inspection

Spoke to the guy who owns it about his Rims dont know if his online here

Also spotted a Silver 33 cruising around Phillip.

Then Josh rocked up for a surprise visit just after I talked to Natrad about my constant coolant problems

Pedders bad :down:

Rear calipers installed on wrong side and upside down. Pads on wrong way in calipers.

All new suspension installed but not adjusted. Camber out, toe out, F/R balance alignement out.

Bled in wrong order, air in brake system. Did not and would not blead ABS - WTF.

3 x returned for fixing - no luck and they had no idea.

Sir your brand new Rotors/Calipers/Pads/braided brake lines/BMC have no problems. Your car just does not stop very well and its got very spongey brakes. You should look on the internet and see what you can do to fix that !!!!!

Yes I went back and told them what was wrong and that I had paid again to have it done.

1 minute at ACT brakes - your calipers are on upside down and wrong side sir. Fixed. Felt alot better.

But these guys didnt notice pads installed correctly. Went back twice more. Sir there is nothing more we can do !!

Both of the above shops have "Brake Specialists" in their business name.

ESP identified and resolved all brake issues :thumbsup: and bled the ABS as per what you are supposed to do !

Capital steering and suspension for dialing in suspension :thumbsup: . Booked in Wednesday.

I should go get the spare key to my car and go steal it back haha?

Okay well there goes $14 for the inspection lets see what they come up with that's wrong with my car

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
