Haha nah man I went to trademark hotel in kings cross on saturday night, then stayed over at my mates place in oatlands afterwards....sooo to get to nirimba was like half an hour drive. I arranged with Pat to pick up his spare helmet at the texi (but he ended up forgetting it lol).

I had a quick glance around the carpark and didn't notice the magenta r32 as per your display pic unfortunately.

Don't own a magenta r32. FYI colour is pink, and no I don't own one anymore..

I wanted to say Ginormous thanks to all the organisers and helpers that make these days go so great! I know I run around a fair bit on the day so if I didn't get a chance to thank you personally please know that these things rock & roll due to all the behind the scenes work.

Also thanks to the entrants - hope you had fun. Based on the ear to ear grins, smoke screen antics and a few exploding tyres, I think good times were had by all!

It's a real shame about the few folks with mechanical dramas. Honestly though, Texi is a great place to shake down your car before you drive all the way out to Wakie or a track where the punishment is a lot harder and a much longer ride back on a towie if something is going to break.

I didn't see Luke or Matt's runs, but the other few cars that I know had dramas were run pretty hard. There were smoke shows where I literally couldn't see 5 meters in front of me out at the marshalling area. Hope the repairs go well, but well we must love our cars cause we all keep coming back to do it again :thumbsup:

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      I am probably calling this too early but I think I found what part of my problem is. I have a couple of dents that are fairly close to each other and I tried to fix them individually. Recently I put one larger coat across all the dents and sanded it and for the first time ever it's all even except for the edge where the bare metal is, I just need to put some putty there. I'm ordering some better longer blocks that are more flexible. Other good news is that the other repairs on my panel are flat even with the guidecoat. It's these 2 dents which are an absolute c*nt l lol.

      Murray will have better input, but I'd be going with less filler, and aimed at the low spots mainly, and hence won't need as much sanding, which then means get the guide coat on earlier. That's how I'd do it, BUT, I'm not a pro, I'm a DIY hack who will then get the shits halfway through, and have one spot awesomely repaired, and the other spots look like a 3 year old was left unsupervised with workshop tools...

      Where is the most common place to locate it? Disappointing that Garrett won’t make a fitting for it since they know everyone will use it

      R32 GTR Limp Mode?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      A HICAS fault really should not cause the engine to go into limp mode. These cars are so old that the systems barely talk to one another. The thump might be the lockoff solenoid valve for the HICAS (the safety valve) getting closed, to lock the rear wheels "straight". I say "straight", because when my HICAS used to shit itself before I took off and nuked it from orbit, it would lock up with the rear wheels wildy non-straight and you'd need 45° of steering wheel to drive straight. Take off and nuke it from orbit. First step is to pull the smaller of the two plugs out of the HICAS CU. See if it stops misbehaving. You can also (whilst leaving it plugged in) try to get the HICAS CU into diagnostic mode by doing the pedal dance, or by connecting a CONSULT capable diagnostic reader into the car and seeing what it has to say for itself. Can't do either of these with it unplugged though. 1st gen HICAS is a ballache. I would do a complete delete. I did do a complete delete.
