Ok, so i have been driving around in a less than perfect car for a long time now. I finally have done something about it and taken to opportunity to upgrade as well. Let me know what you think.

The damage;

somebody reverse parked behind me and scraped the rear bumper. Very impressed that they left a note and paid money the next week for it. :) There are some good people left in the world.

I couldn't drive stick for a week due to leg injury so i borrowed parents auto and they had the line. Mum goes down to supermarket, one with those concrete tyre stoppers. oops! Dad tells me, " yeah i was driving the car and there was this weird scraping sound but then it went away". goodbye front bar!

So after a lot of time, i got my act together and booked the car in to Camerons Body works. I decided to also get rid of my coles shopping trolley wing (and fix the rust that had started to creep into the bootlid) and get sideskirts and pods.

Got a quote that i was extremely happy with and gave it to him for a week.

Got it back yesterday and was very happy with the result. Paint match must have been hard ( i do not have code) but they got pretty close. There was an incident with some inner front wheel well guards not being secured but that was easy to sort out. I would recommend Camerons Body works to anyone out there needing some work. Knowledge is good, communication is good, service is good.

The end result.

    • Started sifting thru my brakes to decide which ones I will run on Clem   Made me think I should just put them all on Silver...for when brake fade just isn't an option   Should be able to bump rotor up from 343x32 to 348x36 off Supra. Not sure if the Supra annulus is right for the Alcons or APs but trying g to find a used Supra\M4 rotor to test fit The Alcons seem to gain 1-2mm clearance which all helps  
    • So car is getting a few mods to the cage and some jacking points welded in Meantime Ol Silver gets a new gearbox and shiny clutch.  Old Box is being set aside for Clem  
    • Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.
    • Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way
    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate
