getting a bride zeta III logograph brand new off a mate and a pink steering wheel for the drift car haha cant wait to get it all painted up and back on the track!

Anyone got any recommendations for somewhere south to do a wheel alignment?

call andys tyre and battery i think its called in seaford.

they aligned my drift car and a few other drift cars there. the aligner has been doing it for nearlly 18 years and knows his stuff and decent price.

Well autobarn quoted me $996 for a 20L drum of gear 300, and thats basically retail price. Ive emailed some companies interstate so once i hear back from them I'll let you guys know. If i can get a 60L drum, you guys can just pay me for how much you need.

call autobarn noarlunga and ask to speak with chris ford, tell him i sent you.

he should give you a decet discount with the amount your buying hopefully. if not that was my only contact haha

I brought an FMIC kit from Just Jap on the weekend, got a call from them today at work saying that they don't have any of the coolers left that i paid for. So they are sending me a better tube and fine style cooler worth $100 extra at no extra charge :D I also got them to change the silicon hose joiners to black ones for stealth :)

cooling pro? have fun fitting it.

ive had to remake all my pipes, either because theyve had huge welding dags inside the pipes, have been too long, or have been bent at the wrong angle, on top of having to make my own brackets, replace 2 silicon joiners, and source my own bolts and spring washers. all with the following response from jjr; "you get what you pay for."

Good old Andrew, helpful chap he is!

yeah, andrews pretty rad. just need to get the car down to him i reckon, ill give in another call in the morning to discuss options, i reckon it'll cost about $200.

Will do buddy, should be good to go for another run like last time!

If you like, you can hire a car trailer and borrow my uterus to take the car to him, will be slow, could possibly kill the clutch or yourself but the offer is there

Life Story entry #318 - drove the silver Stag to work today. Forgot what stock suspension felt like :) Anyone else drive a waterbed?

Got into work 15 minutes early too, just so I could avoid the nightmare roadworks on Port Road. I hate roadworks. :D

    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
