Well, sorry to the folks who went to work today, but we and I took the 3Litre Streeter for a belt down to Victor Harbor. WOW what a ride! By far the fastest car I have ever been in (and not surprisingly, given his OS Giken block alone is worth more than my car - they are $30k fyi).

Some pics are below. Enjoy.

edit: decided to remove the movie.

hehe yeah mate - it is a hard slog - but some of us have to do it.

However, if you were following earlier a couple of pages ago, I finished typing my valuation reports from yesterdays jobs at just after 5am this morning. Yes, that means I did nearly 10 hours of property inspections during the day, then typed up reports for about 6+ hours more last night.

I think I was entitled to take today off ;)

Mmmmm lunch and a beer at The Crown was bloody awesome today too :(

just found out my great grandma died this evening..

so ill be booking some time off tomorrow, so i can attend the funeral in millicent.

Sorry to hear Craig.

If she lived in Millicent she was probably a relly of my wife or at least they knew her.

Again, condolences.

Hi Dan

The exhaust is still on your car (which is in the back shed)

that's the one that was sitting at wilall a month or so ago! and isn't the osgiken 3litre insane? i know of a dude who has keir's old engine in his track prep r32 with 2 trust t51's i think, it pulled about 420kw? with over 1000nm of torque and i remember when he took me for a spin! started off in 2nd and ripped up the semi slicks like they're nothing and man can this guy can drive as well

one of my friends just picked up a vr4 4g63 motor, gearbox and a full aftermarket turbo set up with ex-gate, manifold etc for stuff all

he only wants the gear box for his car.

doesnt anyone know of any rwd cars that we can get CHEAP and dump the motor into or does it have to be fwd or awd to work?

haha yeah ive been in a few cordia's with vr4 motors and they were bad enough but were wanting to put it in something to slide :P

but i figured that would be abit hard to put this motor into something that is rwd :D

maybe we should make a rally basher hmmm

    • 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.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
