Basically weighs nothing and has a v8 from memory

Yeah, the engine is basically "free" (its a kit car so you build it yourself) so most people opt for big American V8s.

I went through Kangaroo Valley yesterday. I did see some sick cars going down the Bulli Pass as I was going up after going through the Nasho, but I didn't go in to Wollongong itself.

That could have been my 34 if it had yellow issue plates, but it doesnt.. I hit the Nasho road for a cruise, covered about 50% in 40 mins.. Man thats slow.

Also spotted a silver 34 on my way back when I was at sutho.

I didnt pay anything to go through there on monday. Its usually $11 isnt it? There was a ranger that said just to go through.

Doubt they would even care. They only care about the people who go in and stop without paying and they get fined anyway. Awesome drive tho!

Definitely one of my favourite except the first weekend i got my skyline i was coming back to Sydney from Scarborough pub and was just at the start of the nasho drive and a couple of motorbikes came flying through the twisty part and one of them didn't roll their weight into the corner properly and obviously hadn't used his brakes enough and came straight across my lane :P and i braked as hard as i could without locking up but it just wasn't enough distance between us. I had to swerve at the last second and go into the other lane, which was the last thing i wanted to do cause i didn't know what was coming around the corner still.... pretty damn scary experience.

Girlfriend at the time was screaming her head off haha and i was about to get out of the car to yell some stuff in the guys ear on the bike but got convinced he probably was close to a break down already :(

It would make an unbelievable run if you could organise to have to closed off to public and have a good run but otherwise even if you are having a casual cruise It's a damn dangerous experience, especially with this nut cases on crutch rockets who go through there

I just drove through.. I didnt stop, wasnt directed to stop just went straight past the booth..

Never do it in the night lol

What are you? A pussy?

Dodging random wildlife all adds to the spice, as well as having no other cars on the road what so ever!

26mins from Bald Hill to Sutherland/Loftus end WITH from 1/4 way between waterfall to loftus end!

    • Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.
    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
