yeh have been to dragz before...also went to heatcote with some of the other guys and galz from here as bunch, was great fun...at heathcote the best we could do was 13 sec flat, but a week before we were at calder park, i did a 12.655sec pass and my dad did something like 12.3 second pass, not certain about his time but it was faster than mine...

well with the new mods we r hoping to do low 11's or mid 11's and maybe even high 10's...this is our first bunch of mods and then later on thinking of doing even mroe to it

yes, we saw it at heathcote and it was very nice.. heathcote wasn't a quick day due to wet track and things. Speaking of which better take my film in to get it developed :) took quite a few of the GTR.. hope they turn out well - cause that is one sex GTR!

he probably used the accelarator, clutch, gearstick, steering wheel and brakes at the end

lol.. great one jet :)

well back in his young days he had a VL Turbo, then a manaro, then back in 1994 he had '84 Porsche 911 Carrera, which he was in the porsche racing club where he learnt all the racing techniques and then that car got stolen and the he got a R32 GTR back in 1996 which i didnt have no idea what the heel it was, we had huge engine troubles with that car as it was very rare of car here then and finding parts was such a hassle so we just got rid of it and got a 4-wheel drive and last year for my 18th we got the R34 GTR..:)

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
