sorry, I should have mentioned that the whole family was in the car at the time, but we are all fine. The girls ended up with a mark on their necks from the seat belts, but they seem to be OK. The air bags didn't even deploy (thank god) as it was a fairly low speed event.

I don't mind saying that I feel as if my heart is broken. I know its only a car, but its more about the fact that I worked my arse off so I didn't have to go into debt to buy it and having spent my whole life driving $500 falcodores the stag stood for a fair bit more than just a nice car.

Thanks for your kind words everyone. It means a lot to me. At least I will always have last nights cruise to remember what a fantastic car it was.

good luck with whatever happens mate and hope u and your family are fine

well guys, I'm sorry, but it looks like I will have to bow out of this cruise.

I hope you all have fun anyway.

Glad to hear your family is all in one piece, hope it all turns out OK for you Dale, insurance & such. It really doesn't look too bad from the pic. Maybe time for some Dolphin gear?

regards GW :(

    • The frontend wouldn't go low enough because the coilover was max low and the upper control arm would collapse into itself and potentially bottom out in the strut tower. I made a brace and cut off the kingpin and then moved the upright down 1.25" and welded. i still have to finish but this gives an idea. Now I can have a normal 3.25" of shock travel and things aren't binding. I'm also dropping the lower arm and tie rod 1.25".
    • Motor and body mockup. Wheel fitment and ride height not set. Last pic shows front ride height after modifying the front uprights to make a 1.25" drop spindle.
    • Here's Logans Silvia with R32 Drivetrain, mine will be slightly lower (more angle). He was constantly blowing the RH axles at around 16deg. I want to avoid this.    
    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.
