cmon tacker....WE WANT PICS!

LOL ask and ye shall recieve....well pics anyway.

Sorry for the amount of pics just a little excited i guess, and the dust on the car it was out side waiting for 2 hours before i got there. Yes ok i was 2 hours late getting there.

Very happy with it at this point! Currently at bottomline for the graphics to be applied tomorrow and also a new set of wheels. So more pics when the car is complete.

Also good news took up the lease on a new 2900 sqft wharehose between 5 other car nuts so have a good location to keep the old girl now.

And a little pic of its stable mate ..... i can hear the GTR now...when i grow up i want a turbo THAT big

MMMMM ware house = lots of room perfect

Yeah, it's heaven! Especially considering I've never had a garage or carport to work on the car.

Car looks great as well! What rims are you going for?

Yer BB i am not giving them up i will have them power coated black i think, but need another set for spare i reckon.

I have just brought a set of rota rims which i have no idea what style :-) but they are black if that helps:-)))

Can't argue with that. I currently have 12 wheels in rotation for the GTR. BBS LM, Enkei NT-03 and Weds Sport TC-05. and I don't think I can part with any of them. Love them all. >_<

testing the new ohlins, new injectors and side pipe this friday at QR all going well,

my heads in a spin with shock setup, luckily we do have an intial setup to start off.

tacker your car is looking real good.

russ

looks sweet tacker....like Neil says, "if you can't go fast, look good". You'll never lose it in the car park.

Russ...have you spoken to Sydneykid? He should be able to give you a starting point.

yeah I think shock set-up will be the biggest challenge now. I spent a year and a half playing with 4 way sachs set-up on a 996 cup car and we spent a year before we had a really good set-up nailed for the 3 NSW tracks (bear in mind we were in the dark completely at the beginning). with my own ohlins I have spent some time trying to set them up but after all that I wished I'd had the time to get them on a shock dyno and get some good starting point either from gary or paul joyner here at bilstein in sydney. so my only advice is keep at it!! it should be super quick now and definitely up there with the best. can't wait to see what you think of the new set-up.

ho ho ho...awesome timing russ. I guess i will see you out there on friday practice then. Things have changed just a little bit for us since the other weekend. What time you going to be out there?

i have 16 :whistling: the volk gtu's, Enkei (for sale ones) desmond ( with the semis on them) and 34gtr... (if they ever return to me) i want to part with most of them as i want a newish axis stagea

but i am also stinging for some of them buddy club qf's after seeing them in here and also looking them at jdmyard.com (end plug)

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
