OK, I guess I have to come along, mmmgtir, shoot me your details & I'll sort the deposit

I'll head down on Tue morning too.

As far as the meet goes, 7.30 at the Pheasants Nest Mobil will give us plenty of time to get there before 9am (Pheasants Nest is about 1hr from CBD, so its a fair way down).

Just confirm the time when you are sure.

hey Mark,

They decided to leave from that Pheasants nest at 6:30am.

hey Mark, Whats the chance you could pick up BigBogan Dave from Penrith on your way over mate?

I really dont wanna have to drive an hour from my house to penrith, then all the way back???

Let me know mate.

Now which skyline guys are coming?

I need someone to come out on a couple of laps in my car and show me how to drift. last time I had a few tries and worked to some degree, got sideways, but then I lost it 3 times on the big corner before the pits. so hopefully someone will be able to guide me.

hey Mark, what about picking Dave up?

Can you do that? If not its cool.

But anyway, that last corner just hit 2nd gear, then full throttle and I'm sure You'll have some oversteer dude. :)

Good man Duncan. :)

So, that leaves one spot. Any of you guys have friends you want to ask?

Just 5 more sleeps ;)

just 5 more sleeps and im looking shaky.. the car may not be right to take on the track. Will be doing my best to make it... will keep you posted.

If i can bum a lift off someone i would still like to come.

Its not one thing...thats the problem.

i need to get some shielding going for the turbo so not to melt half the wiring in my engine bay, need to tidy up some plumbing, new tyres.

On top of that it looks like im going to have to pay a place to wire up my injectors as i cant find a wiring diagram to help me wire up the resistor pack for the GTR injectors i have. Then i have to check the engine isnt leaning out.

It might be 5 more sleeps but i will have to stay busy, its probably easier to throw the stock turbo/manifold back on for the day:(

see how you go roy. im very close to coming down. i have a day in leiu owing to me and i have to take it soon before they forget about it...i know how my car goes around wakefield already so thats why im a little hesitant, if i had my damn camber kit in, id be in. i'll see how it goes...

Franks, there's a place left with your name on it :uh-huh:

You'd make me a happy man to have all my places filled.

Let me know mate.

Roy, hope you are able to get it sorted in time.

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
