Here our quick 6 month build going on 5 years. Hopefully finish it next year. It's a dirt circuit open wheeler powered by a 1jz. It will hopefully weigh 800 kg and make 400 hp to be competitive. Our racing is open so anything goes. We are going to run a venturi under the car and also GP style push rod suspension. If Anyone is SA keen to build a car like this or a saloon check out www.dirtcircuitsa.com. We are currently building a new track approx 85 km from Adelaide and it only costs $10 to come and race.

Cheers

Matt

Well seems my car is back in one piece...now to find a garage for a few days and bolt all the goodies back on and then go start blowing stuff up again :wub: 2010 is looking like it could be a decent year of motorsport provided i can stay in the country...

What i really want is a 993 GT2

Yeah it's pretty damn cool looking isn't it Chris! It's a shame I'll be covering it in HPC coating...

That's a pic of Ian's (Juggernaut1) Full Race manifold, and I've just ordered the same one along with dual 38mm Tial wastegates and a twin scroll 3071R turbo to go onto the 180. Should give me a really responsive 300rwkw's or so, can't wait to get it on :)

Them's fighting words Troy! It's on like Donkey Kong... though the nuffer behind the wheel of the 180 might let the team down :D

2.4 hey? Sounds nice! What turbo are you running with it, the 25G?

There is some uncertainty at the moment with work so i dont know if i am back OS soon or hanging around so for the time being its same old same old std RB20 and 20G. But yeh, if the crank, pistons, rods, solid lifters, cams, springs, plenum, 25G, RB25 gearbox, new cooling setup and new fuel setup ever get installed my car should be a fair bit quicker :)

Still have to blow up the std motor though :ninja:

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      Rusty roof repair

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
