nice...best of luck for next Friday.

Oh, and I noticed the irony of your ANDRA race number.... :P

Back on topic...Anthony Maatouk is up there with the best RB30's in the world: 8.1@171MPH all on a 10.5" tyre. Even batter is the fact that the car has laid down 1080rwhp with a single cam.

Yeah 3030 is a bit of a giggle. Joe Signorelli is 2929...does that make me 1 better than him?

I wish i had a 3030 so i could crack off a few shells.

Here's a pic of my old racecar before the 'twoogle' days

Im not talking about Getrag's in the R34 GTR.

The typical 10-15yr old box in R32/R33's that do fail.

These are in circuit, street, whatever. Come onto boost in 3rd - pop. Plenty of times and the street cars are the saddest of all really... plenty of threads over the years about stripped boxes.

I agree with the above. My car, (Tomei stroker twin GT-RS's) stripped a 11,000 Km old gearbox to bits. I have ALWAYS been careful of 3rd.... and the gear change which it happened on was not a very hard change at all. Lets see how the OS giken + input shaft + billet centre plate goes! Im half expecting my front diff to go pop.

    • 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
