awesome news mate

those that follow this comedy thread never forget

bugger that sucks

it sucks you got shit support from them, but great news that you have the box assembled and back now.

nice, what cams did you go with?

how did you get on?

smokes smoke.... right....

I had this when I was building mine, it took 8 odd years, but once I got it going again there is no way I will sell it

nice, still need to catch up and have a look at this in real life.

nice setup. is the clutch a RB one or a 370z one?

cheers. how do you find your gearbox?

bugger about the stock, fingers crossed PPG have them in stock. exciting to get the manifold back

i see Speedtek are doing a billet center plate now too, would it be easier to get it all from the one place? also which 5th gear are you going with? i am still wanting to get one of their gearsets but i want longer ratios not shorter

are you still running a stock diff and stock 5x1 axles?

does anyone know what resistance the resistor needs to be if you are removing the bulb. i have thought about putting the bulb behind the dash, but would rather have a cleaner setup with just a resistor.

so much shiny

Haven't updated this in a while. But my local drag strip had a test and tune on the weekend. So I loaded up the skyline with axles and tools to change them then headed over. With the setup how it drives on the street my goals were one don't break, and two try for an 11. And I'm happy we say I managed both of those things, best 60ft over the weekend was a 2.0s, best time for the weekend was a 11.98@124mph. my reaction times were measurable by a calendar but it was a test and tune🤷‍♂️ Here's is my first run of the weekend, it was a 12.1@121 https://youtu.be/X1iakuwiVYo

i hope it is something as simple as low fluid, even if it does mean all this has been for nothing.

probably easier to give up too

hahaha i'm sure there are worse addictions to have but i can't think of any at the moment, tools and RB

hang in there mate, get the diff guy to sus the diff then onwards good luck on doing the gearbox yourself, i looked into it and it looked like a mission and a bunch of tools I didn't have :(

Yeah, was a bit of fun. The car gets a wheel going ok.

odd, i've tried on two different devices and its working on both and thanks

NZ is in lockdown due to covid-19, and it was my birthday. So what else can one do. Skid hd.mp4

yep, missing getting mine out, but not worth the risk. did a little skid in the driveway on the weekend
