Thats actually probably a good idea. But i don't fancy your chances getting them thru airport security on the way there.

Maybe buy som bottles of octane booster at your first pitstop in case you can't find pulp in woop woop.

Take 2 jerry cans lol.

but really, take 2 jerry cans.

Dont worry,

We'll be stopping of at supercheap, repco ect ect... before we leave syd to get some supplies (coolant, oil and jerrys)

Things im thinking that will be put under most strain is the cooling system and maybe some of the ancillary belts. Might buy a spare of each belt for the drive home would suck if one snapped in the midle of f**k nowhere ayy!?

thoughts?

i drove mine back with the girlfriend from qld, somehow managed to work out perfect that everytime we needed fuel we came across a servo. just lucky i spose. the drive was easy and comfortable, just watch out for wildlife dependant on the way you go and the times that you are driving

    • 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.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
