i agree!! :) the difference light, slicks & talent!! none of which mark has. lol

Hey Russ you certainly got my attention and it seems many many others in the Jap import car world. Now I have to spend more time and mondey to get near your times. Awesome time for Semi slicks and with good slicks you would take at least a second off that, so right up there and still no aero on the car and other things you can do. You sure that trasponder was not moved to help your times???. He he.

Now go do it in Japan and fly the Aussie flag. Tough competition over there not just a zed boat to beat, some serious cars. Will be interesting.

Just trying to decide if I should wear an australian flag as a toga or a nappy? not sure which will go over better with the japanese people attending. maybe the toga as it will be a bit nippy in the first week of december. lol.

forget KT, if you see the infamous beer baron let him have a steer. he has balls like a rhino and is not afraid to back your car into the wall then give you constructive criticism about your cars brakes.

Hey Russ, what do you think of your STACK cluster mate? I'm tossing up between a STACK 8130 and an MXL PISTA at the moment, and not sure which way to go.

Cheers

Dane

hey dane

love the stack, really easy to read!!

all warnings really visible, just make sure you get the model you want with all the right sensors and readings that you require.

cheers russ

Thanks for the tip Russ.

I was contemplating the stack as it looks really easy to read, as well as having the analogue tacho which I think would be easier on the fly, but the cost of it to have the same sort of functionality of an MXL is up there...

Cheers

Dane

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
