Interested to see your progress James

Fitted some new wiper blades, going the Trico aero style ones this time around. Going to be a big improvement particularly from the passenger side one that I had was bent!
Picked up a new jump starter pack at the same time cause was 50% off today. Now I'm cooking Pete's lunches for during the week and I've convinced him to polish up the windscreen with Rainex
Was looking at the aero wipers today.. what's the quality like for the trico ones? I was actually looking to get some bosch ones, but can't find any in Canberra..
-
Tried installing a Cusco lower triangle brace (goes from caster arm mounts to front crossmember).. in the process managed to fk a socket and round the bolt.. so will be buying a mini butane blow torch tomorrow and getting rid of those stupid bolts.
Also in the process of fixing up my dodgy cooler piping.. ahh wish I could drive my car again
Had to put the trickle charge on the battery today.. sad sad -
going full kermit mik?

White 33 gtst near tip top in fyshwick at about 2:30 this afternoon

Thought I heard an r32 storming out of Bungendore....
-
Would be amazing to not be the only Toyota out on a Friday night haha
-
Yellow 34 near Mitchell yesterday morning I think
-
looks like sikaflex.. nasty stuff
Today, started putting my car back together.. front fender braces in, new swaybar bushes in, re-located alarm speaker...
-
Agreed on the DW fuel pumps, a lot quieter than the walbro's..
Today finally got my front fender braces installed after shearing one of the nuts last weekend. Also installed TRD swaybar bushes, so they actually match my swaybars now. On the lookout for a new intercooler...

Spotted sinista at ESP today, apparently there was a horn going off in the door....?

Meh...
I know Scar has a Chaser. Chunkier than a Soarer but yeah...
Eternal n00b.
ah rob, you have much to learn about toyota's
http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_images/3/2769/4521/31922260005_large.jpg?v=0 <- Stock Series 1 JZX100 Chaser (Mines a series 2 with vertex kit)

Seen plenty of skylines around as usual..

Had a rad day at the trackday the other day. Did some drifts of the 2 and 4 wheel variety. didnt actually manage to get a good lap, dirtbag street tyres turn to jelly after a turn haha. something to improve on for next time. Will link/upload vid next time im on a computer
Even if you got some 595rsr's they're alright for a few laps flat out..
..but really, if you plan on going more often, the best thing to do is get a 2nd set of wheels and get some proper semi slicks (do it right and save yourself the time imo)

Gunmetal 32 GTR heading up northbourne at about 5 this afternoon
-
Yesterday; pulled down the ke55, found out that it has a 3k head on a 4k block.. was consuming a lot of water too.
Today; finally finished off my ebc installation, holy crap I've been missing out! Massive improvement in boost ramp/response and still the same power/boost setting
I will have to spend the next few days tuning it a bit more. Cannot recommend enough if you think your wastegate is opening too early! -
White 34 gtr with bronze xd9s I think in the city, spotted at lunch on allara st and then later near bp braddon at about 430
-
Fresh brake pads and fluid going in this time.
And ill bring PLENTY of top up fluids too, its not hillclimbing.
Diff isnt leaking too bad, i will fix it before then if i can get a seal easy. Otherwise i can top it up if it needs it.
Very good idea to bring top up fluids!
I have Project Mu mixed street/track brake pads and they hold up well, especially with the slotted rotors up front - still usable on the street too.
Make sure you also bring a bit of extra oil, as consumption increases a lot with a hot turbo on track (in my experience)
Brake bleed before and after will also make a big difference.
Also take a jerry can of fuel or two

The run around to tumut and down to cooma is a good day trip.
Tassie has some awesome driving roads too
-
I hit about 160-170 just past the start/finish line.what speeds are we expected to reach down the straights??
Wakefield is a great place to learn... However I would recommend doing a trackschool/circuit club day if it's your first time, as instructors help immensely.
Unless you book your own instructor for speed off the streets, you're out there on your own...
