haha omg . classic

you may think it's funny now, but paul can get really obsesive. just wait until he's giving you the booty calls at 4am, and turning up at your work at lunch time... he has often told me he finds your side burns 'alluring'... so if I was you it would be keeping my back to the wall when paul is around.

well just to steer the topic in a new direction I saw johnny's shop on the weekend. I must say I think it's much better than the old one. a more useable workshop space, nice dyno room, nice looking showroom and it's only 3 mins from the M2 so I think it's actually easier for me to get to than the old shop.

oh, and paul, I think chocolate bandito suits you well. from now on you will be known throughout the lands as Chocolate-o Bandito!

How you going Paul??? Congrats on the new addition to the family and hope all is well.

When you making the road trip down to Melb for Round 2 of SAUVIC vs SAUNSW?? :P

Just to be a little off topic (all GAY talk aside), here's the footage I promised you from our trip (SAUVIC) up to EC last year..

http://sau.ferni.net/Jacksvids/EC_10_11_06c.wmv (right click, save as) big file but good quality (35m)

For those who were'nt there this is the VIC vs NSW SAU day at EC last year in November, and in this session Paul is showing me the race line.

Also keep an eye out for the R32GTR with dori dori action at turn 2.... I think it was Steve??

lol, it couldn't be steve, he hasn't had a working skyline for about a year. dunno about that sideways action, looked a bit half hearted to me!

you put in quite a good lap there though jack, your car certainly hauls along quite nicely. 1:47 is none too shabby at all. a couple of corner entries I'd do a little bit differently, but don't listen to me, i've never done a 1:47! lol and your GTR is a lot quicker than mine. :P

Yeah I can't remember he's username, I think he said it was stevegtr or stevegts4 or something like that...

I guess it wasn't a bad time for first time there, although I did have a problem with tyres, you would have noticed the tyres screaching (understeer) on most of the corners, they were rooted... hot day, wrong tyre pressures = fu(ked tyres.. :wave:

Will chase 1:45's next time I come up.... :rofl:

So what's ur best Richard?? Roy tells me your very quick considering the minimal mods you have..

Paul dipped into a 1:48 on the day in which he beat his previous PB by 2 secs....

John (UAS) did a 1:43!!! Geez that's quick..

I'll have to check. I've only had the GTR there twice, from memory the best last time was a 1:51 or 1:52. not too bad, but I hope I can motor it along a few seconds better than that. It's pretty stock though. and back then was just 250rwkw, street tyres (well RT215s), standard 32 brakes etc. none the less I thought it was not too bad at the time.

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
