It would be nice to see some Skylines along to one of the Speed Event Series sprints - even if it is just to spectate.

The next on is on at Wanneroo on the 2nd December (a Sunday) and goes from 10am to about 3pm. Entrry is absolutely free & you can get yourself some lunch etc at McCracken house.

The series website is at www.speedeventseries.com. Flyer for the event is at www.wascc.com.au.

There are a good variety of cars that turn out - everything from wings & slicks open wheelers to sports sedans to road cars to historic cars. In fact you name it & it will probably be there, HSV's aside.

There will even be some twat there in a white R32. :D

For some photos of the previous event are at www.circlework.com.au - see the July photos.

When will the twat in a white R32 be heading up?

Might come for a quiz.

Looks like a Sunday cruise to blow out the cobwebs might be in order.

GL with the rotors. Did you upgrade to the bigger brakes?

No mate, I don't get paid consultants rates. :worship: But I do have to sort something at some stage.

They are just different to the local stuff which keep cracking.

Hey I don't get paid them either.

I just have to charge them - return to shareholders (lol) they seem to expect a big cut for some reason.

Has the new car got Brembos?

If so don't buy any second hand rotors locally as someone went to the trouble of taking my old ones from the curbside collection. WTF only good for weights in a cray pot. I hope someone doesn't machine the lips off and tries to flog them to some unsus.

Yeah I know. I just get all bitter and twisted when I see what the charge out rates do to the tattered remnants of my project budgets. And wonder how it is I don't get paid almost $200 per hour as a lead ginger beer.

New car has the highly covetted Sumitomo calipers. :) Much like the old one.

Sadly there was only one Skyline enterred on the day. Me.

To those that come up and said hello - thanks for your kind words & encouragement. It was a good day.

I think I managed to find an excuse to buy some new tyres. Sweet. Not so sweet was the hour & a bit of arsing around it took to get the space saver fitted & inflated. Not what you need after a long day and two and a half hours into a three hour drive home.... :(

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
