Frank's best is still in the 1.20's I believe. But he ran that in 2004. Last year he did his clutch straight up and never beat his 2004 time.

Given no problems he'll kill it this time. Last year Sandown had 3 cars under 1.20. Sam, Benno and Clayton.

What about ur session in my car with the semis for the 1:23?

Yeh, id love to...but like i said, when my car finally gets back on the road, it would be nice if i didnt have to go shopping for another $1400 set of tyres. Plus, if somehting lets go on your car, or sh1t happens then id cringe at the cost pf fixing another persons car. I still say my car will doa 1:23 with the diff fixed...so cant see why your car wouldnt do a similar number with the right tyres

Which isnt that big a worry, but i suspect its also the brake it you buy it rule....which if you are pushing the thing to do a sub 1:25 then you will have to giving it a bit of a go...and i dont like brakign my own car let alone others...so its lookign doubtful...

April 25th for those wondering the date. ANZAC day.

Those cheap Brembos look the goods. Wondering what temp they will catch fire at.

I was offered complete Falcon Brembo front and rears today with discs. $2K

May be available to flag. I'lll let you know James.

LOL...if i could work out how to mount two sets of calipers i would run twin std calipers on my rotors though...lol that would look tough, twin 4 pots on the car...Bathurst Enduro spec :P

Dane...can i ask how much the Evolution is? Is it carbon or fibreglass?

missed this post entirely!! :D

The evolution I was looking at is the normal fibreglass one, and it was $1425, and the carbon one is about $2800 from memory.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
