Yep I did and that was squirming the full track and a handful, and obviously quick. Got bumper bars if goes all wrong though. Still nothing compared to looking at the Tasman sea at Phillip Island 7,500 rpm in 5th and no parachute.

I have never enjoyed the view. Always too busy reaching accross the cabin holding doors on car and stopping the car from falling apart at the speeds you end up doing at PI :P

Right, I was going to enter this piss up, but in the spirit of the event I am looking for someone to represent my business there.

Currently the short list is:

Pete - for falling off the balcony drunk onto a lancia at dutton rally

Richard and Roy for their efforts representing SAU NSW, particularly at the F1 in Melbourne

Kel - for the poker machine incident

Neil - for making me stop 6 times on the way home from wakie the night the trailer lost a wheel

Michelle - for drinking an unnamed SAU admin under the table

While this is the short list, I am willing to take further nominations to prove my business's brilliance. To that end I will accept further nominations via this thread prior to a test day at the thursday prior to Superlap at Sydney City RSL.

The best drinker on the day will represent Raceworx at the after event piss up.

you know this comp is tailor made for

and ill beat your lap time the next day half cut!

and abuse boulos just for fun!

lol where is old geoff these days.

yes sorry richard I forgot your amazing efforts taking aussie drinkers to japan. I genuinely rate that right alongside Mark and Russ taking their nugget over there.

And Roy....you have done the same for NSW in Vic which in many ways is more difficult than japan. And lets not forget that Steve was there undermining your efforts too.

Thanks guys its some good options. I'm sure I can prove my business can find the best drinkers to win this comp

you cant drive your own car john how would you drive mine with that extra gtr power

and if you didn't have such a fat arse I would let you drive my Radical buddy. But alas I have Frosty at the helm.

Neil.

Drink till you spew, isnt that the point?

not really, and for most people that means a fair bit more than two white wine spritzers and a midori illusion.... kekekegay.gif

lets just hope you drive better than you drink!

where is this drinking comp going to be held...ive been to many of these events attended by a lot of so called hardcore drinkers only to be left the only man left standing at dawn when the sun has risen. We are staying in Parramatta so somewhere around there would be good.

I vote for rugby style schooner races between the winning clubman team and winning open team to get the overall winner for the day.

mmm drinking comps

you say that like is a dissapointment. you should be proud of that. head drinker in gingerbeering is quite an achievement.

i dont have a fat arse, can i drive , can i , can i

Only if we can cut your legs off at the knees,,,shit your legs would end up in the crash box. :laugh::P:D I love the banana man!!!.

All this drinking talk has me thinking I better get some practice in,,,off to the fridge for another.

Neil.

Hey guys i went looking for a fire extinguisher today and none of them had cams approved on them. What do i have to look for? There was a 10BE 1 Kg and a 20BE 1 Kg and a ??BE 1.5 Kg.

What do i need to get?

Cheers.

It just has to be 1kg or above as far as I'm aware, with a metal mounting bracket.

Correct me if I'm wrong though

Your on the money there phunky,,,no need for hi octane "sparco" expensive ones. Cheap crap supercheap and the like are cool,,but they have to be bolted as ADZ says as well as with big-arse washers,.,,NO rivets.

Neil

    • Drilled the rubber out on a slow speed and it didn't catch much at all. Probably only half a dozen holes was enough to shred the rubber and it dropped off easily leaving the inner sleeve behind. Will tackle that later
    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
