Hey Guys,

I was going to come to the North side dinner the other day to meet some of you guys (living in the northside myself), but shit hit the fan at work. Maybe the next one.

On a different note just wondering if there are any bladers around, who may be interested in a weekly/fortnightly meet for a bit of exercise (Sunday arvos possibly). I went to a path at Haberfield last week (Near the dog park there) and it was an awesome place to blade with nice smooth paths next to the water in the kanals there. ALso there was plenty of parking.

Being still new in town, if people have other spots in mind we can change destinations from time to time. I wouldn't recommend the Luna park side of Milson's Point as it was a pretty shit run, with board walk and more board walk, but Manly/Bondi should be good.

Anyway if you keen send me a pm with your email and we can do something this Sunday arvo (30th) say at 3pm.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
