got my weather sheilds off the otherday - after sitting on the car for 14 years they have pulled the plastic away from the body..

anyone know what my best route on fixing this would be?

picture here :mad:

the gluey stuff is taking forever to get off.. :P

shan i will hit you up when i need tyres, it seems because my car had been sitting for probably about a year + not doing anything in japan there is some small cracks in the tyres.. traction tyres suggested to get it replaced ASAP but kinda thinking they just want me to spend more money there.. as they are really only small cracks I might take some pics.

Anyways cheers all for the info :mad:

EDIT:

BC COILOVERS FTMFW, sooo much less bumpy then my brutal teins were, they feel sooo much better for a daily driver and no knock ftw.

what type of teins were they?

Terps and a razor blade but be careful with it ;) and a rag to help along the way and just be patient with it

ok, ive heard those ones are very stiff.

Yeah i'll probably sell them like uber cheap for someone that wants to chuck them in a track car or something, they do knock a bit so prob just sell to someone for like 100 or 200 bucks, worked fine on a few hill runs on my car.

do you remember this song

D:\Mp3\Albums\a to k\Billboard Top 100 Hits - 1992.(www.lokotorrents.com)\076 - Mc Hammer - Addams Gro.mp3

quality

They do what they wanna do, say what they wanna say

Live how they wanna live, play how they wanna play

Dance how they wanna dance, kick and they slap a friend

was more the color I was objecting to :) lol they do a good knockoff

yeah they do a different green to, more of a taraka green that looks heaps better

hahah keen eye for the Rotas Nick!

haha loves it

Would black rota grids be a bad choice? heard some mixed stories about them breaking and shit.. I like them but would feel cheap or something i duno.. lol like buying fake Oakleys or something :D

mine will be here soon, flat black in 17s

the grids are fine man, there are 700+hp track cars using them in the US and they still dont break

too many people have hate towards them becuase of how many different jap wheels they copy

they are made well now

haha yeh I sold my GT-Cs want to go for a different look :D

I will spend on go fast mods! waiting for Trent to get back haha got some cash for a few goodies.. although the sucker already sucks petrol like a dirty whore compared to my old non turbo. (driving 60+ KM a day for work as a daily hurts my wallet when filling it up :D)

Paint my Challenge F-Zeros black or buy some rota grids in black?

Edit: Nick I recon flat black is hawt :) how much they set you back?

Haha no hurry, I hope he enjoys himself overseas its great there :D

Gives me a chance to get my KMs up a bit more over 79,000 and do a timing belt service and all the shit at the same time.

Also i need to find someone that can paint flat black.. places i have looked at only do like a gloss black, and seemed a little pricey quoted me $700 and more to keep my "volk racing" chrome.

    • Hmm. I should have thought of the clutch bleeding issue. It should be #1 thought for "can't select gears". As to "sounds like the top".....have you actually gone out with the stethoscope and tried to pin it down any more than that? And, buy or borrow a timing light, and set the timing properly.
    • I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side
    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
    • Wow that's a steal, you've done well there.
