hey mate.

that u its mark. with the R34.

u did pretty well for urself. im sure my GTR would pull off much the same times.. with a so called shane pussy launch.. :)

good to see u on the forums..

Hopefully the driver of the rail car wasnt a fatality - that would be a damn shame!

I didnt get to see too many skylines there - i was lookin for you guys but i was configned to the pit area for the rest of the night - red silvia EAT17 plates...

Anywho was an interesting night, i ran a best of 12.3@126mph with a 2.0 60 foot - my car wasnt really hooking up with my micky thompson et streets that well - came pretty close to the wall on one occasion. Still the purpose was to increase my half track to full track mph with my cam gear adjustments and i picked up about 5mph top end without it tuned properly- pretty happy about that.

On a sidenote i got done on the way home by dept of transport - they setup a roadblock and suffice to say i got reamed as they knew what they were lookin for - although the blokes where really nice so it didnt really bother me.

yes i dare say col would be in the 11 bracket with the mph down the track, god damn traction?? That seemed to be the issue with many cars there tonight, although had to leave early sorry didnt say cya to ya noel :P awell good night as i saw it. Cant wait till the 17th

mark u softcork learn to do a skid :P

i was pretty disappointed with col and jared's cars, what was the go guys? :P

Yeah I'm pretty pissed to.

I couldn't get it to hook up and I got 2 bad starts and Mr clutch was slipping a lot at the end. I was going to save up and get a triple plate clutch but stuff this I'm going to put the single plate Ive got in it for now and get it re-tuned so it will perform a bit better.

2nd

I blew a hole through the exhaust on the way home some where i gotta find it this morning

3rd

Im never going on a Saturday again its crap those shit box v8's kept doing oil downs and stuff like that. Even the line to get a drink was as long as.

Werd. For all their noise they are just a pain in the arse. Every time delay was from some v8 shitting itself. Take them back to the shopping centre car parks where they belong.

The other annoyance were the v8 tools trying to win the race in the staging lanes. Just revving the tits off them for no reason other than they can.

Yep v8 shit tins. For the people going next Saturday. I was talking to col and theres a big meeting on the same day or the day after, so theres going to be a heap more shit tin V8's there getting in there oil down practices in. So be prepared for the wait.

Well Put it this way I got there at 4:40 around abouts and from there to 8:30 I got 3 runs in and its only going to be worse on the 17th by the sounds of it what a waste of time

Maybe the wednesday night sessions might be a better option?

yep..

was good last time i went to watch on wednesday.

i got ther at 4.30ish lined up near noel. and ran a BNR32 at around 5 or 6pm.. was pretty shitty with all the hold ups.. but goin from ryans pics at 3.30 when col was running ther looked to be 3 or 4 cars in the lanes.. so best to get a few runs in really early. :P

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
