Don't forget the cams approved fire extinguisher.

btw, how important is the blue triangle for the battery location? I'm going to use some blue pressure tape.

If anyone has a timer marker, tell me what brand to get so I can buy another of the same.

I'm really looking forward to seeing you all there on the 19th.

so i went out there today and wow was it packed with plenty of hot high performance cars! just a bit too busy for my liking but all good. i will go another time...i like sundays when there are only around 4-8 people...

plenty of cool cars to look at though!

didnt see any skylines though....

I rocked up at 12:00 noon and only saw the photographers driving skylines, must have missed you guys as I went onto the track. Still the super drift practice was worth watching. 24 cars on the track at a time. In 10 minutes drifting they shred a set of brand new tyres, approx 8 tyres in a day.

evil_weevil - It wasn't hot enough to need air conditioning.

you should have seen me then... it was around that point i was getting towed out in the middle.

i went home to weld new intercooler pipes and the black gtr had had his fun too. We were a bit out of our league with the calibra that was there, but the 928 and rx7's were about right if not a bit slow. i was just totting around wasting money not pushing hard enough. only got about 10 laps.

hung out with the open wheeler guys all day, they are some great machines and people. We need to NOT be the only two street cars next time lol. was fun anyway i love driving

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
