Here's some of "our" 34 GTR from Rally Burniw 2006. Appo steerin, me navvin. Thanks to the organisers for the pics. It was a very grotty rally, velly velly velly slippy. We were lookin great for 3rd outright until we crashed out about 3 klms from the end of the very last stage :D We had spun twice previously, the road was SO cold and we just couldn't get heat into the rubber.

Sadly the car was sold last week and has gone to WA :(

Not really the most exciting of pics but it might help revive the thread coz I love it :ermm:

Oh, and here's the result! After we towed it out we drove to the finish, only suffered a dented front gaurd. The tree fern was holding the car up from falling over quite literally a 30ft 75 degree slope onto rocks which when I disembarked went for a slide down......... Nice. Yes I got dirty.

Thanks Chrisso for the fail pics :ermm:

The problem with rallying in Australia is the spectators have no commitment. Not like Portugal in the Group B days.

Those were the "good ole days"! lol - would have been a huge challenge for the crew.

None of the drivers miss it I'm sure, and there's enough silly/nieve spectators and/or officials that let people and themselves stand is stupid spots. Witness Targa Tas '06, Mini into crowd at the Domain. Not good.

That is crazy shit. I recon he would have had to get a custom made seat to accommodate his oversized go nads.

:D

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
