Only 3 more sleeps to go :D Can't wait... I'm eager to see what difference in power I will get - hopefully it's not too big considering the last dyno tune was 2 weeks ago :P

Anyways, IMPORTANT NOTICE:

All forum members attending this official SAU NSW event, who are not SAU NSW Members yet - please consider joining up on the day. A lot of hard work has gone into organizing events such as this one - all support (primarily through memberships) would be most appreciated to keep the club going strong!

Thanks

:P

darn, 2 and half more bloody days, :D

I have a missed match wheels at the rear,

1 is 255/45/17, the other is 225/45/16 ( stock r32 rim)

going to be alrite?

my other wheel at MAGman shop atm.

his takin his time! :)

If both of those tyres were new the first would 2.08 metres in circumference and the second 1.91 metres. That doesn't sound safe let alone able to be put on the dyno.

Could you put another stocker on there?

i MIGHT not be able to make it to this. Steering rack has to come out as my power steering completely shit itself on sat night. Felt a slight shudder, HICAS light came on, smoke started pouring out from under the bonnet, out from the front left wheel arch and from out the back. Steering rack just started squirting out oil =/

So it will be a mad rush to see if i can get it done by then

FACT: Smaller diameter tyres/rims make more power on a dyno.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
