I was extremely bored today, so I was looking through all my old car photo albums, and stumbled across this classic picture. Back in the day when I was first year apprentice with all the Xstrata Boys, good times hey Kingy? ;)

It's already got one. Palmyra. It's been built to suit the majority demographic in Mackay. Sad but true. I remember whan I lived in the area 20 years ago there was talk of one in Gladstone out near

F***ing hooligans :P

I'm chasing an AAC/IACV for my car if anyone has one. The GTR and RB25 ones are different I think so will need to be off an RB25 probably. Let me know if anyone has one.

Car's lost its nose now:

Yeah Sean I had fun that day.

Packing the FJ now for the long journey to Jambo. Gonna have to leave bright and early. It will be a slow trip towing the Caravan. Maybe Kingy and I could join the grey nomad society and sit on 80km/h and don't let anyone pass us :banana:

You need to buy a 20ft caravan and tow it with a AU falcon to get into the grey nomad club.. f**k those people frustrate me so much on the highway!

Cheers guys,

It was a great result for the weekend of racing, got another world record under the belt and the car survived with no breakages.

The car done 2 x 8secs passes for the weekend Sat done a 8.54 and Sun got a 8.39. Both runs were done in the morning, the track was very unpredictable losing and gaining grip through out the day making it hard for us to adapt the tune for the conditions. We couldn't piece together a perfect run as the car is quite capable of a 7.9 sec pass but we only had to go faster than 8.47 to get the world record. Still extremely happy with the 8.39sec @ 164mph with 1.30 sec 60ft.

Next goal is to go for a 7's with the same setup and make it harder for the next pour bastard to break it.

A big thanks to the RBE crew this week, The King brothers Matt and Andrew, Dave Sheehy and Mark Jacobsen for all the help couldn't have done it with out you's guys. + friends and family that cheered us on.

Looking forward to next year.

Will take a week to sort out video's and pictures, got some awesome footage to edit.

Engine news....

Upgraded to a VH45 throttle body. Direct fit on the Greddy manifold and quite a bit bigger than standard throttle body:

And thanks to Leon the bung for the IAT sensor is welded into the manifold now. Going to start painting it this afternoon so should look a bit nicer then :)

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.

      Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z

      Wanna rewrite all of that in, say, 2 or 3 separate sentences, so that we can read it?
