I went to Hobart for 6 weeks, for work. Suffered major skyline deprevation, especially with all those mountains!!!! :P

Would like to go back for a couple of days with my car and have some serious fun. Good thing about it, is that 10mins outside the city and you are heading up the twisting roads of the mountain.

i was away from mine for a month.. didnt miss it.. ****ing petrol!! but damn it felt good to get back in it. Then again recently same thing, i didnt drive it for a week cos I made the g/f taxi me around, but it always feels good when I get back in. Im in QLD now and havent driven her for 1 week.. only 3 more weeks to go.. it ok tho, i have been driving boxheads new r32 gtst up here, so im still getting my skyline fix.

yo!, im about to head up to whistler now, for the night, im coming back early because i hate the job i have and it isnt really covering my expenses, i also want to see japan on the way home. ive seen the entire west coast down to san diego, ive checked out all of vancouver, in a week or so im going on a 6 day rocky mountain tour, i think thats enough.

-peace

i cant say that i miss driving my car cause im picking it up for the first time tomorrow morning. very excited cause it has been about 2 months since i bought the car (trouble with the bank). the only problem is that i have to take it straight to compiance so wont see it for another few days.

also, it couldnt be any worse timing cause if it wasnt for easter i could have picked it up on thursday and had it complied by tomorrow. first time in my life that i havent wanted a long weekend.

i have missed driving "A" car. since i started this stupid rb25 sil conversion. 11 months later and still ages away. feel like blowing the piece of shit up.

AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRat kick the tyre, kick the tyre, kick the tyre, kick the tyre, kick the tyre, kick the tyre.

hehe.

I have been away for about 5 months now. I have not driven my car for so long, and the worst part is this: my car was still waiting for the camshaft when I left and now it is all ready waiting for me in the garage with the new camshaft on!

I enjoy my driving so much, but now I am stuck for another month or two in a city where traffic jam is literally around-the-clock! And the only performance car availablto me is a 200-HP E36 Bimmer in auto! Auch!

dunno but im going tomorrow

i think its almost done, as everything is in from engine to gearbox to diff, but i was missing the afm plug and they were gonna wire directly but thought against it as its a sensitive bitch so finally found the plug. oil should be going in soon to see if the engine works :) (btw the plug wasnt the reason why it has taken long, reason is unknown but doesnt worry me as long as the work is done properly which im sure it will be :))

just got back after a week, of being driven by a friend on a trip in a non turbo car. Just got back today, done a lap to get the car warmed up, no boosting (was so temped) filled her up had about 5L left. filled her up warmed her up and is getting some rest for some good ol' boosting tomorrow. I just cant wait...

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
