  1. the mighty leaf. since the only fire risk is the battery, which can't be put out with a foam extinguisher......but I suspect AASA don't have clear regs on electric cars yet?
  2. cool, I'm in. do you still need a fire extinguisher if your car does not have an engine or fuel to catch fire?
  3. haha I was going to say "No"....I think we are both right. You can't adjust front camber with the factory setup
  4. skids were pretty minor. I'll bring some maccas trays to texi. I was surprised with how many stagea owners I spotted without stageas Can't beleive Alex didn't go for the pink wrap on his bonnet
  5. +1 that came up great, good score This story is word for word true. But to be honest, nothing will ever beat winning that navara t-shirt at the 21st anniversary GTR R32 cruise Let's face it, no-one likes them
  6. That will be the quickest for sure, bridge/gore hill/m2/lane cove tunnel/ryde rd/victoria rd/silverwater rd. But it may be expensive for tolls.
  7. There is a specific Parts For Sale Forum for topics like this, and there are rules there including an asking price needs to be posted. Please review the rules and then post in thaf section if appropriate. Thread closed.
  8. its not that....they only fit on the custom hubs build by gibson motorsport in the early 90s. They are centre lock and cannot fit on any production car
  9. Definately helicopter mate, if that's not available try an official motorcade, they make really good time.
  10. ahh that's pretty sure to be me, the stag has been sleeping outside because the ute is getting a full rebuild. mx-5 is my dirty boat loving neighbour's, not mine. Drop in for a beer sometime the shame here is those wheels are totally unusable by anyone else in the world (unless terry knocked off the trailer ).
  11. headed out there today, it was a pretty good turn out. even hit up the nissan merch stand since they sold stuff with R Kelly's name on it
  12. 600hp = 450kw at the fly = ~350kw at the wheels.....pretty normal power level as far as I'm concerned, and it certainly doesn't need anything special. I'd be more careful over 400-450atw.
  13. my 2c? anything is useable in a mild build. buy whatever is cheap. I've used 5+ types of pistons and all have been equivalent. If you want a billion horsepower it's different, if not it is the machining that matters most
  14. well the real miracle about finding one of these is that pete has personally killed more nissan actually made. On the bright side he would have left lots of bits at wreckers
  15. good luck this year, you must be stoked with what the team are doing. I understand there's some senior guys with a mile of experience in the category coming on board too. and while I'm at it, well done with the B12H victory last weekend too...great way to start the year
  16. Sorry fax is no longer available...you can still scan and pm to shell
  17. Sorry to hear that Craig, it's been a rough suburb lately. Can't see you getting much out of gladesville station, all they did for us was write notes in their invisible notebooks then head back to the donut shop
  18. Excellent project mate; I assume you are not planning to molest it?
  19. I can't make it this year, but I am dead keen to get there one year. Good luck Tom Anthony, they block off a section of the old lakes way near bulahdelah. A bit like the old pac highway, an absolute blast to drive with no speed limits
  20. I snort laughed. Not sure how they could acheive a gayer look without adding these guys as pit crew
  21. good call...would be interesting to see how they go around
  22. great times run by these cars too, I understand Simonsen got the Ferrari down to a 2.05
  23. maybe! the strut tops are probably standard stagea in there now....the rear in particular has an oval strut top and I can't see how a gtr top would fit. It's not the whole shock that changes, just the strut top/spring mount
  24. You will want stagea strut tops, not GTR. Definately for the rear and probably for the front as well, because they have to fit into the chassis OK. I think your best bet will be a set of standard ones, aftermarket (if you can find them) is likely to be expensive, and be "pillow ball" which is a large bearing at the top which will probably flog out quickly in road use and start knocking, sending you crazy
  25. Yes you sure can, in fact it is more effective than in a vlsd. I don't know the specifics but it involves adding additional clutch plates of the correct thickness. I've been running my race car with a shimmed standard diff for years
