Spotted my R32 getting bogged on the GDE whilst trying to do a U turn .... on the grassy section after missing the turnoff to Aranda

Lucky for me some other drivers saw me stranded and helped me push the car out :) ... Was rather embarrassing but then again I guess it could happen to the best of us ...

Car was bloody filthy after spinning the wheels like a madman trying to get it out .... whilst bogged the whole car ended up filthy as hell ... (tried driving out slowly to no avail ... Damn open rear diff and no rear LSD to help me get out ....

The drivers side rear wheel which was in the dirt would just keep spinning like crazy whereas the passenger side would spin slowly ...

Car is now Clean as a daisy as I spent all afternoon in the Cold cleaning out the interior and exterior ...

So much mud and grass underneath the car it was like it had been in a bloody rally of Canberra ... Got many weird looks from other drivers probbably wondering where I had been with my R32 covered in mud LOL...

Passed a white R33 coming out of Woden Plaza carpark... didnt recognise the driver but he didnt look at me anyway so I didnt wave..

Also a silver R33 at Phillip just down from the BP, I think its a bike shop there?

Woo, been a while. Whose parking the nice blue V-Spec II in the same carpark as me the past month or so? Bound to catchya one day, even if you're not on here.

My car's been running like an absolute dog recently (bottom end bearings) so pretty much avoid driving it except to work :\ Boorrring!

Spotted the white R35 GTR going along the road near the casino, it looks so much better in the flesh. Specially when it drives past you.

Saw most likely the same car parked in Civic around lunchtime, looks like an ADM model.

    • Nah it factory manual not sure about ratio but it looks like there’s been some work at the rear 
    • so I need a new speedo cable 
    • Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?
    • Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)
    • +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
