It will look like mine with stock rims! lmao

Congrats on the purchase, steve would be correct, id say 4th one in SA, mine was the first, then theres a black series 2 down south, and i believe a white series one also.

Hopefully mine will be totally tuned by the cruise!

haha thanks for the comments guys. Pics will be posted up when i get a chance. I'm not sure if i can make it to kart mania this friday night, but see what i can do. im totally new to the forum, but you all sound frendly haha

oh, and theres another black RS260 a few suburbs away from me. its the one i was SUPPOSED to be buying from sinergy, but it got sold 2 days before i walked in there with a deposit.

as for the hay plains... purposely crossed it about 8am, missing dawn, and all the roos. However did encounter 500 odd cows in the middle of the road drinking all the puddles, as there are no fences in the hay plains.... reasonalbly trouble free trip home, tho i hit a pile of dolomite on a rough section of road on the way home, bumping an intercooler hose, and causeing a boost leak all the way home. Fixed that all up and she is running really sweet!

hopefully see you all soon!

Drove it back from Queensland - now THAT's commitment. I'm just glad you made it back without hitting a 'roo. Did you go across the Hay plain??

I flew to Sydney and drove the stag back to Adelaide when I bought mine. :P

I enjoyed driving it that much, I drove back to NSW and back again a few weeks ago (for a Dolphin bodykit). :)

Kudos for taking the longer haul to pick up the 260 :P

Just make sure you get a look at Ben's (Grim's) 260RS and see what can be done with them ... if you don't know when to stop spending money on it :P

I'm sure all us Stagea lovers can give you a 'receipe for disaster' :P

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
