hi Roy, it was a good buy just wish it was on the track, cant wait to get it going(should be in July)

the cylinderhead for it is a work of art (huge cam and good port work for big revs and a dry sump), and the brakes are crazy (carbon fibre rotors of a jaguar lemans car)

the seat isnt for sale yet but it may when we get the car going , if we sell it i'll let ya know.

cheers russ

Congrats on your times John.

As you know i ran the S15 on Friday. It was my first run in 4 1/2 months with a different gearbox and diff ratio. I have taken you advice onboard regarding the camber on my rear wheels. thanks for that. Car was suffering from a lot of understeer all day.

Anyway I did alright in practice with few a 1.08.7's which I throught was OK for the conditions.

Choked in the 1 lap sprint. :P

hi mate

thats a very nice sx of yours and bloody fast too!!

cheers russ

and hey guys are any of you coming up for the next circuit battle round?? would be good to catch up again

Mirroring R31 Nismoids' comment: dates? Would love to come and attend/help out-it all comes down to the dates the days are on(A.K.A. time off work...)

I'd love to come back up again Russ but the reality is I'm not going to be able to make it this year. For starters the car still isn't right so it sure aint going to be spot on for any time in May.

But other than that I've got Dutton W.A and Dutton Vic to worry about (can't make NSW now) plus my wife is due to have our 2nd baby in August. So really it isn't a good year for me to get up there.

I'm hoping the car is going to be perfect for Dutton Vic (doing W.A in an EVO) and so after that then I'll have time to play around and do some other things like Circuit Battle. Actually - we'll probably be coming up to NSW in November for another road trip to Wakefield and Eastern Creek with some fast Vic cars - plus John wants to come down to Vic for another Phillip Island visit so it would be great to catch up with you guys at one of these days. Would love to see your car around the island.

the dates for the next circuit battle is the 24th of may, then the dutton starts there the next day.

hey snowy good to hear a another bub on the way, my wife is pregnant too!(for our second)

and i would love to get to phillip island one day.

1:08 is honking in an s15. What have you done to it?

Also, just watched that video. He doesn't even look like he's trying. The straights are over as quick as a corner!

cheers russ

    • 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.
    • 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. 
    • 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.
