Australia is awesome!

My car is in the garage still, windscreen is still broken, the roof is still dented but I did manage to get a bonnet off of my mate. Bonnet is rather shit though, the clear coat is coming off at quite some spots so I've pretty much decided to put stickers on the entire bonnet. Not quite sure if I'm going to include the pop-up lights as well.
We'll see when it will be back on the streets, all in time.

In the meanwhile, enjoy this song made by a group of Aussies.

Windscreen pwnage

My car's windscreen decided to stretch its legs today... while I was doing 120 km/h on the motorway.
This is how it looked like right after it happened:



Got some things sorted right after I got home, thanks to a towing company.
Took the bonnet off:



This is what the roof looks like:



Crack in the windscreen:



Decided to take my bumper off as well. Wanted to re-locate the oil cooler for quite some time and I can combine this with putting these locks on which allow you to take the entire front bumper off in a matter of seconds.



What happens now?

- Kay and William will be coming over to repair the roof as much as possible on friday.
- Bought a burgundy red bonnet from Daniel and I got a pair of hinges from Joep.
- I'm insured against any windscreen damage so I'll be having that fixed some time soon as well, I hope.
- I have to re-paint my roof after its lost (most of) its dents.

Peace!

At the shop

Yesterday, I went to Sky-Engineering again to get some other things fixed. I have a proper working oil pressure gauge now! It's nice to be able to keep an eye on your oil pressure and such as it's one of the more important things of an engine.

I love this "stance", if you will. Not because it's my car, saw a Soarer on the Risky Devil blog a while ago standing in some garage like this as well. Sexy sexy!

Not your average shop!

Good times

Sometimes good things do happen in a gym.
Heard this song while working out, put my cousin on a search for the track and he came up with just the right ones. Thanks cuz!

Weird-named remix


Original mix

It's working!

Got my R33 gauge cluster installed at Sky-Engineering last friday. Finally some proper-working gauges to look at!
I'm going back there this friday to get the oil and boost pressure working properly as well... I'm useless when it comes to electrics.



Put the Commander on the dash with velcro and insulation tape... guess what? It's shit. I'll be "re-fitting" it this week, going to drill the mofo on the dash, that'll do.




Cool song to start the week with:
