I thought the black wheels looked good. One thing I liked about this car was the subtlety to it...there were no outlandish parts to it. Even the high spoiler seemed to blend in well.

Basti, you mean about detailing it? already has been, attacked it before the S'n'S, but silver doesn't really yield the same results as black does unfortunately. I've got some metallic/flake shots somewhere to show the paint correction though :D I was secretly hoping it was going to rain on Sunday, would have been fun to see the water slide off the car

well post em up. jeez :laugh:

Mate, the car looks fantastic, a REAL head turner, I couldnt stop looking at the new gtr photos..

did anyone else get the sense when you looked at the gtt photos it looked like a boys toy car and the gtr looks like a mans car?

You know that catch can is illegal right? :(

This car was great in the flesh ;)

lol

dan.... the car is just amazing...

there are not too many cars that can sit next to mine and actually make me feel like i hate my car.... but yours managed to do it!

i was parked next to an f430 the other day and didn't think anything of it, but then at the show and shine i was seriously envious!

however, if you insult that beautiful machine by not getting genuine craft square mirrors... i will hurt you... with a blowtorch

Thanks heaps for the comments guys! Mucho appreciated :P

Must have missed you Juliette... went to work around 1:15pm and only came back to move the car out...

for the GTT owners, now that i've been lucky enough to have driven both the TT and R, don't underestimate your cars. There was a little period where i had both the R and GTT and it was nice to hope back into Blackie. Great gearboxes (especially if you have the datsun clubs 'dildo' variety shifter :woot:), definitely more responsive than the 26 and just an all around more 'streetable' car. Maybe my R isn't a fair comparison :rofl: but in an ideal world i would get around in the GTT for most duties, and the R would be kept for the serious stuff :D They are great cars, with great potential, and now that the new Garret GTX series turbo's are out with greater E85 availability..... fun times indeed :D that's really the same for any of the rwd 25's. I've come to appreciate them a lot more after driving around in the R for the last little while.

i'll get up the gratuitous full sun detailing shots soon ;)

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
