dude.. if u dont like it close ur eyes....

just because u are a bit more mature and dont run which i respect doesnt mean u judge me of being an idiot...

go call the evo 9 who raced me an idiot... it was a mere run in 1st 2nd half way 3rd... if u dont like it why r u gna reply..

are u expecting me to say... OK SIR I DONT DESERVE A SKYLINE CAUSE U SAY SO..

most ppl here hit a lil race here n there dont mock it

Perhaps calling you an idiot was harsh & for that I apologise.

BUT

Have a think about the consequences for you if the coppers see you doing this sort of thing. (Loss of license, big fine, confiscated car, more shit put on car enthusiasts) I can assure you they won't think of it as a "lil race"

Please, please anyone who wants to try their car out do it on a proper racetrack. Not the Hume highway...

And yeah, the person(s) in the EVO are just as bad, but they aren't here talking about it.

your right... i wont say ur wrong.. and thanks for the care of other drivers n such..

but it happened.. i try not to race but sometimes u just get so damn tempted... ask neone :mellow:

Ive done a lightly modded evo 6 before, but I put it down to him being a bad driver.

thats what i thought the first time we raced... i looked at my mate n said f*k he was a shit driver... we went at it again this time... my window was down i heard him drop gears with me n we both hit it at 2nd... same time etc etc.. he seemed like a good enough driver....

my r33 gtst made 270ish rwhp with boost , exhaust and filter . it doesnt take much to get them moving

but put the evo on a track , even stock and it will chew you up and spit you out .

do chip exhaust filter on the evo and he will own you in strait line too

you managed to stay with a evo in a straight line...trying staying with it thru a couple of corners..you would have got lost in the dark :mellow:

and you wonder why skyline drivers, and import drivers in general get a bad name, when you get people with no f**king idea, like this guy, racing.

take it to the track, before you lose your car, or worse, kill someone else through your sheer stupidity.

Ahh beaten to it.

yeah , hp stands for horsepower dude

:mellow:

even so thats pretty good . actually i forgot it had an a powerfc with untuned stock map , which is a bit more leaner than the factory tune so that helped a bit too . but still all 1st level basic mods so pretty good output for the $$$ spent

it was quite happy to break tracktion in 2nd with 18x8.5s on it .

    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
    • I forgot about my shiny new plates!
    • Well, apparently they do fit, however this wont be a problem if not because the car will be stationary while i do the suspension work. I was just going to use the 16's to roll the old girl around if I needed to. I just need to get the E90 back on the road first. Yes! I'm a believer! 🙌 So, I contacted them because the site kinda sucks and I was really confused about what I'd need. They put together a package for me and because I was spraying all the seat surfaces and not doing spot fixes I decided not to send them a headrest to colour match, I just used their colour on file (and it was spot on).  I got some heavy duty cleaner, 1L of colour, a small bottle of dye hardener and a small bottle of the dye top coat. I also got a spray gun as I needed a larger nozzle than the gun I had and it was only $40 extra. From memory the total was ~$450 ish. Its not cheap but the result is awesome. They did add repair bits and pieces to the quote originally and the cost came down significantly when I said I didn't need any repair products. I did it over a weekend. The only issues I had were my own; I forgot to mix the hardener into the dye two coats but I had enough dye for 2 more coats with the hardener. I also just used up all the dye because why not and i rushed the last coat which gave me some runs. Thankfully the runs are under the headrests. The gun pattern wasn't great, very round and would have been better if it was a line. It made it a little tricky to get consistent coverage and I think having done the extra coats probably helped conceal any coverage issues. I contacted them again a few months later so I could get our X5 done (who the f**k thought white leather was a good idea for a family car?!) and they said they had some training to do in Sydney and I could get a reduced rate on the leather fix in the X5 if I let them demo their product on our car. So I agreed. When I took Bec in the E39 to pick it up, I showed them the job I'd done in my car and they were all (students included) really impressed. Note that they said the runs I created could be fixed easily at the time with a brush or an air compressor gun. So, now with the two cars done I can absolutely recommend Colourlock.  I'll take pics of both interiors and create a new thread.
