What a great day, strangly enough the scariest moment for the day involved my lhs steering arm falling off at 110 on the way home! ten seconds of the freakiest driving ever trying to pull a car up when both wheels are pointing in opposite directions. and the brakes dont really work when that happens...

Morwell however was a great little track, very similar to the long wang. I think everyone managed to get at least 8 runs in with a couple going the opposite direction. It was also interesting having a comentator for the whole day too, pretty funny really with the jokes he was making, especially about the doriftors in the afternoon.

Strangely enough they didnt seem to mind all the drifting. Im surprised there isnt a gemini in DA... apparently the kids loved it. and thats all that counts.

There should be a bunch of funny/good footage and photos from all our camera crews so post em up. now.

Also, thanks to all the ppl who pulled over to offer us help on the way home.

time for more beer.

Wow ryan! thats crazy. I've had a blow out at 100 but at least the wheel was pointing the right direction!

Glan all worked out.

Mat.

Great vids with putting together the whole lap! Have you got one of me?

Big bird, you got some good shots from that height, those and those vids are great crossy. nice music. that would go great with all the times we looped it. Russ, your car looks tuff. Mr Black

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
