best in the state is without a doubt Andy Kuc at pro automotive in sunderland st moonah

Had a great time for my first time out. Ran a best of 1.02.11, car ran good and met some nice people, Dom, Brendon, Ben etc. might go back for another run some time.

Hey Dom, was good to meet you the other day. Had a ball at my first club day, car went well and learnt heaps, cheers mate, paul

throw one my way lads, what about the traditional datsun colours, blue red and white with say a tiger head backround representing tassie?....just a thought, cheers

Yep, the 33 is mine, and has just ticked 1000ks since rebuild, feeling realy strong, Kuzie is king!

Gidday kerry, 1 psi !, mines just an ole datto, i will be lucky to keep up with you!. Running in a new engine so i will just be sneaking along, see you sunday, cheers Paul

Come on guys, this sunday, cruise day, show some interest and it may lead to bigger and better things, see you there, cheers Paul

Rosie, i agree with the x-man 100%, although your mechanic has said your twin plate is an excellent clutch, no-one is disputing that. The facts are its a dog of a thing to drive and you obviously cant come to terms with it so i agree with the x dude, a jim berry set up is an excellent cluch, single plate, light pedal yet delivering over 2 tonnes of plate pressure good for more Kw than you will ever have, its a cloned subaru clutch and would be my first choice for a street machine. I have a new nismo twin plate and it like yours is a pig to get going at the lights but i intend to do track work, if i didnt the jim berry would be strait in, food for thought, cheers Smud

Gidday Rosie, ive put a set of dunlop sp 9000s on my GTR and they dont seem to do anything wrong. Mine are 245/35/18 and not real cheap but you are probably runnning 17s by the look of it so go for a 17 with no less than 40 profile, that should ride a bit better for you. If Steve Bell is doing your engine you must live in Launie. Just remember your first expense is your cheapest expense, do it once do it right. Sounds like you have a boost controller on it so once the engine is a runner get it to Brad at Chris Colgraves at Invermay and he will tune and set the boost for you, say no more that 17pounds on premium will be fine. As far as the clutch goes fit up a standard system to make it user friendly. If you get stuck for engine components give me a yell i might be able to source it for you. Dont be frightened to ask others for advice on prices etc, no need to spend more than you have to. If you want to sell that clutch i might be interested, cheers paul

Cool, i will come and say gidday, which gtr do i look out 4?, cheers Paul

Gidday mop top, or as you would say, comrad,.Hows the filming of your new porn movie going over there? fair bit of retraction going on i bet, tough at the top. How did the trailer go the other day?. I look after nic for you ok, thats what friends are for , be a good boy handsome, from handsome

Gidday guys, just wonderin if any of you are going to Baskerville this weekend to watch the meet?.Im heading down sat to run the optic nerve around the track.I have to deliver the datto to Andy at pro auto sat evening to get the 26 re-planted yippeeeee. Be nice to catch up with as many of you southern boys as i can to put a face to the name , so see ya on the hill, dont be strangers, cheers Paul

Gidday mate, well i dont envy you at all as i know exactly how you feel as i too was on the waiting list for a 26 crank which believe me arent gonna be in aussie for quite some time. i flukently happened to get probably the last new 33 crank in Aussie from white hot motorsports in Dport that had been race preped and then shelved due to a change in racecar. I can give you a coulple of options, 1. i know of a 32 crank on standard 00 grind in exel cond for $500 or 2.I have a 33 crank at crankshaft rebuilders in melb that needs a 0.010 grind. R 32 crank as you may know have the downfall of a smaller oil pump drive surface that have been known to give probs when run with a high volume pump, but as a rule should be fine depending application. I dont know what the cost of the repair to mine would be but can find out if you think you might be interested ( spun No 1 bigend,but on measurement will clean up fine). Apart from that join the other 320 plus worldwide on backorder and twiddle thumbs , cheers paul, 0428838802 if you need more info

Gidday mate, yeah still got the cage 0428838802, cheers Paul

Looking touch Greebs, bring her up to the northern cruise on the 4th mate!

Sounds like the go Kerry!, will definately have my car back by then so count me in, Cheers Paul

Gidday Todd, engine is in Hobart at Pro Automotive, all parts have arrived just waiting for Andy to assemble and then i will take the car down to him to bolt in and run in and tune on the dyno. hoping to have it back in 2 or 3 weeks fingers crossed. i think we up north should show a little more enthusiasm and organise a run south or somthin, im keen as soon as the wheels are ready. cheers, Paul

Thanks Todd, Sounds good to me. I will post up some pics soon. U in Lonnie?. A cruise would be good, cheers Paul
