Short story...

Went up to Mt Baw Baw, car was good and really fast on boost, heaps of grip but still slides nicely. Got to the top and ba bow! Split a heater hose and dumped all the fluid in the car park :P

Spent and hr trying to fix it with the ski teams tools and garage but no deal, so RACV Total Care to the rescue, got home at midnight :down:

Anyone know where I can get a heater hose kit OTHER THAN Nissan? They say only comes from Japan and looking at $200 for 3 hoses!

Thats ma girl!!!

Hahaha fkn thing!

Ask Just Jap to get some in. They do a whole GTR engine set for $300, so surely they must have a contact for an RB20 one?

JK

i mite have some off the r32. bring the broken hoses on sat and u can match em up with wats there

i thought Mt Baw Baw roads are too tight for any slip?

Ah cool...I'll pull it off and see what we can do.

Most of it is tight but there are a lot of good corners for sliding, although with so much lag I could only do a few open ones (and the surface there is mostly crap)

dang... chaser or mark II?

Chaser....hope he got it out ok :S

It was resting up against a tree and looked like roof damage but have to wait and see how it pans out. Made me appreciate my 10k Nissan. If I crash.....RESHELL :)

So it was recommended to me that to rekindle my love for the Cefiro I should give it a wash and polish (for the first time in a year of owning it).

Utilising my day off work for Uni exam study, I went and polished it up...bit of a difference hahaha! You may notice something missing in these pics...A FKN REAR BUMPER :P

Surprise! Swapped the Rega's for a set of Work Kai's (17 x 9 +17 all round) and lowered the car onto them.

Also discovered a lot of oil in the turbo intake coming from the catch can so that will be the next job, re-route that shit!

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
