Somewhere between the engine and your eyeballs. :P

I'd try checking for loose wires / dodgy earthing. Could be in behind the cluster etc...

Not hard to pull out.

(once you've done it a few times) lol

Fibreglassing repairs today, all done.

The instructions say mix a certain amount so you can get it on before it hardens.

DIY Miks painting skills mean i can mix the whole tin and get it on good, well before it starts to harden. job done. :thumbsup:

I was feeling so good until i remembered... the only way to get fibreglass off is a cold shower. :O:blink:

Strongly recommend not letting your Skylines get so low on fuel that the fuel light comes on.

+1

I don't allow my GTR get below a qtr of a tank.

Listen or learn.

But just don't breeze over good advice, especially if you have modified your car.

got no mods, well no power mods, and I still don't let it go under a quarter

I have never had my fuel light on, and the gauge has been like 3mm under the empty line... and I sure as hell don't want to see if the bulb is broken

Make up your mind

I just made sure the intake is the same height as stock, and while i was there i could see how it gets the last bit of fuel.

Kinda dodgy baffles try to keep it near the pump, but a good corner or steep hill and it would run away and youd get air in the line.

After pulling it out and f-ing around trying to re-seal it, i still smell fuel inside the car sometimes. Have to do it again better this time. DIY LOL :huh:

As I said I've seen my fuel light come on once in 10 months. I normally fill up when it hits E, but my sender is not correct and I can only fit in 40-45 litres

It's like fuel cut.

It can do engines in if it occurs at the wrong time

Bit dramatic I know, but it happens.

(your better of stopping spark than stopping fuel)

      City of Casey - This is obscene!

      Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.

      Wiring high beams in IC7 for R32 GTR

      By BourneToLive · Posted

      Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know.

      RB30DET timing belt tensioner relocation query

      By zigrb30 · Posted

      G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.

      Smoothline aka Matthew stone

      By DanielStone · Posted

      Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
