Got my guards rolled at Adelaide Radial Tyre but they won't do guard flaring because it can crease your guards, they told me best option is a body shop, since then i have been recommended to All Type Crash but haven't had a chance to go in

so you're going to pump them up, paint them and then fit over fenders and repaint them?

Sounds like you have too much money. Give me some

no no paint just a temporary fix to accomodate my wheels till I have the gtr guards welded on.. And im kind of wishing I didn't start this build because I could of had a real gtr by now lol

Yeah they told me the same thing when I rang this mornin... Might give all type a call couldn't be worse than the quote I got this morning from who ever has m & c dolye old number 500 bucks a corner wtf

Thats the realisation of all GTT owners who try and make a gtr

So TRUE but when I bought this car seven years ago it actually cost me the price of a gtr today... I'm never going to get my money back so I figure my aswell go all out on it... And it will be one of a kind there's not many people who have done the task with all genuine parts...

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
