you would think that wouldnt you? i mean he would have known that it was heavily modified, and that getting it passed in another state without taking it back to stock would be very very hard and of course time consuming.

Yeah Luke you'd think so. I can't understand why such a HUGE price difference as really it didn't take Dan to long to sell his (compared to other people **cough Andrews S15 cough**) oh well each to their own

got to love the top gear boys

in the recent Britcar 24 hour they organized the most awkward sponsors they could and "conveniently" placed them on the car (especially when the doors are opened)

the sponsors are

LARSON BISCUITS

PENISTON OILS

Futurama movie just came out in the states a couple days ago and there is already a dvd rip out

go to your friendly neighborhood file sharing application and get amongst it

its called benders big score

I watched it the other day. Awesome movie!

Futurama: Bender's Big Score > The Simpsons Movie

Might (hopefullyyyy - fingers crossed!) have a R31 in a couple of days :rofl: omg...summer thrashing...40degree engine swaps :O

Im excited as if though im buying my frist car lol. Hell getting the bucket seats, tacho, steering wheel and all the other F&F shiz happening with this 1 lol.

Nah he doesn't own any cars always driven someone elses. At the moment he may be driving the car for the new owner (why wouldn't you want him he's won 5 out of 6 races in it) I'm still heading over as i have other business to do over there and people to see

Good luck with the F3 team, great to see another SA team out there. BRM are changing to F3 next year with Percat driving

Yeh we speak with Nick all the time, we saw him testing the F3 out at Mallala! But we heard a roumer he was going over to Europe, which wouldn't surprise us, He is a talent and always was when we raced Go Karts with him. So people watch out for a kid named Nick Percat, He will prob be the next big thing to come out of Australia to race open wheelers! and if that doesn't work for him im sure he'd find a seat in a V8 supercar pretty easy!!

yeah, the poor old bat copped a piece of my mind about the elderly driving.

if she cant see my brick of a car in her rear view, nor hear my horn right next to her ear, then she shouldnt be on the road.

my cars still mostly in one piece, its copped a whole lot worse over the years, but insurance will probably slap economical write off on it. spose time will tell.

I also got hit by an 81 year old lady in a Datsun 1600 on Diagonal Road, Glenelg.

Problem was, I was on 2 wheels and ended up in hospital for 2 weeks......ouch!

Did you ask for her 1600?? an 81yo driving a 1600, there the types you want to pull over and ask if you can buy the car cos they are in mint original condish!! Apart from that mate i hope you wern't on your bike you have now!!

I heard through a mate that Nick was heading over to the Formula Ford Festival with TWR (back when he was driving with them)

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
