ok - with only a few minutes left for 2004 and much happening on an international scale. The most disturbing and most tragic is of course the devastating Asian earthquake and subsequent tsunamis.

I hope that everyone is contributing to the relief funds for this crisis as much as they can as their are many who desperately need it.

Australian Red Cross has so far raised more than $24 million in pledges for those affected.

Australian government has so far contributed $35 million.

It is going to take a long time for these people to get their lives together (if they ever do!!) The least we can do is give up some money for them.

Im having a quiet new years eve tonight and I am donating some of my "drinking" money to the fund. (It sounds pathetic hey?)

I reckon it would make more of a difference if we all personally donated. I just donated 50 bucks via RED CROSS , can anyone else match that (or beat it)?

Happy new year (for some)!!

thats good news that your friend is ok.

I dont know if many people know but apparently their was a huge quake out at sea between New Zealand and Tassie about 3 or 4 days before the quake and tsunami hit s.e.asia. It was one of the largest quakes on record.

I live on the south east coast of NSW and lucky for many of us the plates shifted horizontilly and not vertically.

      R34 GT-R Positive Battery Cable Routing

      By Beanie · Posted

      Hi there, after a quick google search I found this topic as I am also relocating the battery to the boot of my 1998 GTT. I was just wondering how you got on with installing the re-routing and specifically the installing of the harness protectors? How do they attach? Are they just a simple "click-in" affair, or do they attach with bolts? Does the GTT have all the necessary fixing holes for them, for example, where they locate on the chassis? Any help you can provide would greatly appreciated.

      R34 squeaking sound from passenger front area

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Stock less likely to carry one like that than urethane, but still can, especially if the bolts are not as tight as they should be. If it's making that much noise you should be able to use a hose as a stethoscope> stick one end in your ear, crouch down and wave it around the various possible noise makers and get someone to lift the front end at the guard lip.

      Broken actuator rod. Could be one of a couple of them broken. Or, it's locked and the central locking actuator is broken/stuck or the actuator rods between it, the lock and the key barrel are jammed or broken similarly. You'll probably need a locksmith/mechanic who is experienced with using slim tools to reach down next to the window glass to manipulate the mechanism. That's assuming that it is not so severely jammed/broken that nothing useful will move.
