Sold it just wanted a change, miss it though for sure. Took advantage of dat used market. 

Working at car dealerships so seeing all the nice Audis come in tempted me away from the jap stuff for now.

Got an R33 again now for shenanigans, whats a good performance shop these days to make my R33 fast?

I came to a conclusion last year: that most car workshops can't run a business and don't actually want your money.

Try making a booking at most places... "We're busy at the moment, maybe in a month or two, contact me then" "I'll get back to you in a few weeks"

Just make a booking ffs, it's not hard.

"Oh my work partner has my hoist at the moment so I can't do the job right now, maybe in 6 months time"

If I wanted a turn key job on the pulsar (a shopping list of small issues), my options are pretty much Racepace and a 5 figure hole in my pocket.

Trying to book the Gloria in for suspension work: legit can't book something in. Obviously lockdown doesn't help.

"“Due to the implementation of Australia’s unique pole side impact design rules (ADR 85), the Nissan GT-R will not be imported into the Australian market after October 31, 2021,”

Sounds like half of Lexus' lineup will also be axed. Good times.

anyone know how custom plates work?

Sold car interstate.
I want to keep numberplates.
I want to get refund on my paid rego.

Vicroads wants a stat dec and money to retain the rights to them?
I left the pulsar rego to lapse with plates and no one gives a shit.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
