Hey fox, did the shot turn out that you took with the blood up the side of my car?

sure did.... :P

i was actually a little dissapointed with a 1'13.1.... i was quicker than the Evo's through the 1st half of the lap, but lost all my time exiting the bottom hairpin, because of my unhealthy diff, i cant get any traction through the sweeping left hander. i reckon i could drop into the 1'11's once i get my new diff. unfortunately, it wont be in time for the 8th of nov :)

well im already down to drive on the 8th, and i bloody well am!!! i have since discovered that the noise my car is making is a leaking exhaust manifold gasket. PHEW! no biggie, so that'll be taken care of next week....

Hehehe :) That photo of me mooning Luke is gold! :)

I thuoght the glare from my pastey white ass would blind him coming into turn one!

To my dismay, Luke is to good a driver to be put off by the passions of the flesh, Hehehe :)

My brakes are still stuffed, i drove my car for the first time yesterday and the pedal is still really squishy. Does this mean my brake lines have cooled while expanded and have just stayed expanded causing there to be a lack of pressure?

Leigh have you been sent that CD with the photos yet? I owe you $33!

I would say there is moisture in your lines. Do a full brake system bleed and then see how it is. I did mine before the track day and they are still feeling good :thumbsup: It's easy to do just time consuming.

Oh yea i forgot about that sweet more mullah >_< (actually if you are going to get some of them blown up we will sort something out). I just called the Oz Events and the lady said it normally takes around two weeks (god knows why doesnt she just have to dump the photos on a disk ???) However she said she is swamped at the moment and it might take another half a week on that... sooooooo looks like another 7 - 11 days before i get it. However as soon as i do i will let you and Luke know :happy:

Well our cd came in (Luke and Steve) although I think Steve and I got stooged a bit although I guess Luke did have his car on the track a lot more than us. Anyways either I can meet up with you at some stage and give it to you then or pm me or we can arrange something. Luke if you still work where I think you do i should be able to drop it up to you as I will be there on Thursday or Friday.

Anyways here are a couple I saved the rabbit one for Steve if he wants to put it up he can.

Pic 1 - Yup that’s me... Can you feel the body roll mmm :)

Pic 2 - That Luke with me as a passenger :huh:

Pic 3 - That’s Steve... oh and who’s that in the background its me :)

Just got back from the SAU NSW v SAU Vic day... here is a quick little video of Frink getting owned by a 32 GTR. In all fairness he was owning pretty much everything out there including many EVO's, GTR's, GTS-T's etc i would say from the street class he would have probably been the 3rd or 4th fastest, the quickest were 32 gtr's that were on roids lol

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • 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
