g'day neil

mate the last time my rb30det ran was jan 06. the shell has been sold and the donk is now in a hr31 coupe. as of tomorrow's payday i am 100% debt free. all money from hereon in will be sent towards car. last week picked up my jcc widebody kit from powerplay (cost me the same price as what the entire car cost me. stupidity, but what the heck). same kit as on this jap group a hr31 ive uploaded

ive stripped the coupe, then it goes to be caged, kit fitted and painted up.then cams log book then swapped to race/rally rego.

then i'm back in the game. just fun track days, some drag days, and hopefully my aim is joining you on the hillclimb meets

cheers, mark

Good to hear mate,,,long time no talk,,,I miss you :):( .

An R31 coupe hey,,,nice choice,,,sure better than an old run of the mill R32 GTR,,,

Neil.

They look like Buddy Club P1 Racing QFs.

One of the lightest, non-magnesium wheels in the world.

oh nice! thankyou!!

i am looking into that now! f**k they are hot!

now i gotta work out which set of wheels to sell.. to pay for them!

Great thread!!! Some awesome cars that's for sure!!!

I wish I had a race car.... :thumbsup:

I totally agree on both points.

unfortunately the bank account doesn't stretch out enough atm to get myself a track car. Bt it should be expanding soon enough :)

meh *buying* something is pretty cheap. I only paid $9k for my car, I'm sure there are people on here who have spent more on a turbo kit :thumbsup:

and first rule of race cars is...."don't race something you can't afford to write off"

Its running and repairing it that kills me

Sounds like a top plan. :huh: What colour though ?

i could afford to buy a cheap car, its the running cost that are stopping me from getting one. I don't want to spend a heap of money to have it sitting around gathering dust.

This doesnt belong to me. but it belongs to a good friend of mine

    • No updates on the car but figured I'd share a nice outing. All the recent work paid off and I got it all together and out the shed for a car based pre-wedding celebration for a good mate of mine. Pretty casual cruise through the hills to a pub for lunch then out for some go-karting at The Bend. Headed down to Myponga for the night We stopped in at the reservoir before heading out down to the coast for lunch via the dam  By the end of the weekend away I covered 350km and the 32 generally behaved its self. A good Shake down after being apart before the Track day in a few weeks  
    • The front prop shaft from my GTR had very notchy unis, which obviously needed replacement but unfortunately uses the (usually) non-replaceable (staked) type.     A new shaft is something like $2K plus shipping from Japan.   I wouldn't even bother asking the local Nissan spares dept.     Rang Hardy Spicer but no go, which surprised me a little.     There's a place over Dandenong way that would make me a 'performance' shaft but un-necessary in my situation.   They claimed to be getting the equipment in to replace staked unis but couldn't give me a timeframe.   Anyway, long story short, found a place to do the work just 5 mins from me: https://knoxdriveshafts.com.au $420 (cash) and about a week later I have my driveshaft back.   Price includes balancing. Owner is a one man band working out of a shed in his backyard but from what I could see he's very well setup with some expensive equipment.  
    • Thanks. That's what I was after. One of the kits, the o-ring side is too big diameter. The other kit is a plate with a o-ring to seal and the hose connection offset.
    • oops that seems much easier lol. 
    • Are you using the factory rail?  Is there any reason you don't want to use one of the two you already have, they don't have to attach to the fuel rail directly.  If you 100% must have a FPR that directly bolts to the fuel rail, you could get a Radium setup. I use a radium fuel rail and the direct mount regulator, it is quite a sexy setup.
