Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

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

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)

      Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing

      I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
