Well Ive dropped my car off at C-Red in Perth to get the car complianced, and, unfortunately I can invision this to be a painstaking experience already. Today I was greated with news that the engineer is not happy with the condition of the door sills and chassis rails and would like them tidied up before he even contemplates signing off on it.

Has anyone ever had their chassis rails 'tidied' up. As far as I was aware they werent stoved in at all, but there was alot of scrapes down them from the car being too low (skateboard grinding over speedhumps rings a bell). The front of the rails were in OK condition from what I can remember. They have said that they have been badly repaired in the past....

Is the poor taxi doomed and destined to be a track car only? :D

i think i hear a cash drawer opening....

...no wait that's the PCP i smoked earlier playing tricks on my mind

he would be reluctant to say becuase he'd wanna charge to do it himself...

obviously if one has ever met Jai he has his own "do it yourself" approach to cars

i agree with the above posts

      Joey, are you still in playing "spanner club" Mafia somewhere mate? Or you now out in the real world where you actually have to work for a living? BTW, the car looks clean, and the pods look sweet, are you removing to go full OEM type of resto?

      Use text replace function to auto-link to referred threads?

      I like the idea of tagging the model, and if GTS-t/GTt or GTR, and then a what, so wiring, engine, suspension.   That way you end up with a matrix, all content R33 GTST, or you can find all content that is wiring related for example.

      Brake pad Compound suggestion

      By sonicii · Posted

      You could probably just go with the genuine Nissan pads, they are not really the expensive, I can't say how they compare to your 350GT pads but at least they will give decent performance. Shims are probably the reason for the squeal.  When I bought my Q50 which runs the same Akebono brakes, the previous owner had some weird pads fitted and it squealed and dusted like crazy, I bought genuine pads and when I put them in, I found all the shims missing.  With the factory pads, the dusting is much better, performance is fine, but it still squeals when cold.  A bit of grease on the back of the pads and mounting points gets rid of it, but it comes back after a while.  I have bought a genuine shim kit that I need to install when I get around to it, hopefully that will fix the squeal.

      Highlight that row, and a bit of trial and error. Try reducing it by 25% and see if it starts, if not, go the other way. On the newer Kebabtechs that table is in VE which makes it so much easier to calibrate.
