last but not least!

Yeah see what i have to put up with Dark - thats why i have two too even the score around here! You think whats under the carport is bad should see the shit they keep in the house with holden all over it!

nah my folks - im an only child. We also have a 356 porsche with wide body kit. But didnt get any photos of it at the time. I have two cars mum has two cars and my dad has the HSV and a go-kart haha

Just a family of car enthusiasts! Been dragged around to car shows ever since i could walk.

yeah when i just had my 300ZX and worked for caryard - the wife of the guy that imports cars comes up to me and goes "thats a really nice supra you have" and im like .... what tha? you import them you ought to know it aint a friginn supra!!

Anyway on the new 350Z ad - it starts off with one that looks like my Z31 evolves into the Z32 and then the 350Z.

yep thats right - at one point dad wanted a motorbike but thats was until mum gave him her permission to have one - he lost all interest after that! haha.

Yeah we've got the room to garage them even tho u can only see one carport which is where the two HSV's go in the picture. We've got one beside our house and we can squash another 5 cars down there.

Its like tha tlotto ad where they go "can you move the porsche so i can move the lamborgini to get to the torana - y eah alright but move the holden to get to the ....... ahhh you get the idea but it gets a little like that round here sometimes!!

to tell you the truth my Z31 can eat my skyline for breakfast! which means theres a lot to do on the Line to get it up to the standard of quickness im used too! Althought the Z31 handles like a dinosaur which makes it a little dangerous - in fact its almost become my coffin a few times!

to tell u the truth its gone on the dyno to sort out a fuel prob but i dont really know. Most mechanics dont even want to look sideways at it because its a total speghetti factory under the bonnet! got pics of that give me a moment and i shall post the spag factory.

I would like to plug Rotomotion tho for fixing one worskshops mistakes - i took it in this workshop fully working with a slight fuel smell after 3 weeks my ex marched in there an demanded it back - the guys were so lazy that rotomotion found manifold bolts just chucked under the windscreen. They fixed the whole mess up - and what a mess it was! They are great mechanics!!

V6 Turbo. haha Joe u think my Skyline sounds like V8 you should hear this car - its as loud as - its one of those wonderful cars that you drive close enough to another car it sets off the alarm haha i used to have so much fun doing that!

Skyline does have more power in the top end but this car the boost almost send you thru the windscreen - but it kinda gets over and done with early one where the skyline you still can access more power when you're doing 120. dont know whether that makes much sense but i know what im talking about at least :) haha

heheh my yeah I know what you mean setting off alarm heheh...

I used to do that at my place car park...

late night back from partying, at least set off 5 car alarm :)

it's fun until some one complains to the landlord hehe :D

but then again you can not beat the sound commming from 7000 rpm rev limiter ;)

cheers

JOe

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
