It's got its good points but can also be pretty boring sometimes...just like most jobs I suppose.

what did you drive before you got da GTR? Always liked GTR's?

Hi Reuben

Ive had a million rides in the past which included a Prado 4WD, Datsun 260Z 2+2, 1999 REX, 5.7 litre Berlina, 5 litre (EX Cop) Commodore and the list goes on.....not to mention the 2 wheel variety.

And yes, ever since a lined up an R33 GTR with my 5.7 litre (and got the paint blown clean off my car) I've always wanted one.

Thanks for the compliments Carl.

cool, im kinda shopping around for a different career path (IT team leader at the moment, and the boredom is plentiful :yes: ). Always interested to hear about other peoples jobs that arent quite the norm, there is some great stuff out there... keen to find one that suits me (and my expensive tastes in toys :laughing-smiley-014: )

are you heading out on the cruise this friday or the *shudder* ns.com one?

Yeh I'd really love to catch up with you guys at some stage and check out all the cool rides but I'm not sure about other commitments at the moment.

Does anyone know where the Friday night cruise will end up and at what time? Probably should be asking on the other thread........

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
