supposed to run the new car at various speed & gears.

just like when you get a gearbox rebuild.... going through each gears to run it in, especially the first 500km.

I tell you now its all wrong :(

So why post contrary to that then... oh... i get it. A litle bit of sarcasm.

Damn i should have noticed that sooner...

Well, go do some research if you dont wanna listen to someone that has :)

Some Manufacturers use Mobil 1 synthetic right out of the box, dont even use the "mineral for 100kms" etc etc.

Why you might ask? Because they have all realised that it doesnt make a difference with the motors of today :)

I have Castrol Edge 10-60 Fully Synth waiting to be dropped into my motor. Bed the rings on the dyno (less than 20mins) and wind up the wick.

So Joel, the point... go hard just like in Shepp :)

hey great choice of a car dude as my old man has one to him self and the compairment to the skyline coupe with hicas is that i believe its quicker then the gtst but not faster and the skyline handle faster speed around corners than the Mazda 3 SP23 but the mazda is a much more relible car to drive , verry nice. cheers

So it can hold 6 Latte's :)

Perfect for those hairdressers conventions.!

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
