I has Nistune :)

Should I butcher it myself... or should I let the expert (Scott) handle it?

Have a go. If it don't work just use a bigger hammer :thumbsup:

Any suggestions on what panel filters are good / better / best ?

Dunno, ask Scottaaayyy. For the record though, C.H. is now open again.

Ordered a Nismo wheel for my GT-R today so i never had to look at that disgusting Isotta it came with again.

I like not having crap in cars. Great step in improvement!

I bought a DR/FT one from Autobarns... Works good as.

Anyone have a big car jack i could use for a few days?? Have to change the clutch in the skyline.

I have a heavy duty jack. You can borrow it.

I got one i'll loan you for a 6 pack of Heineken/Lowenbrau/Oettinger.

Yer martin, pretty keen either way to destroy it somehow, blowing one up and shooting one will be good enough, i want to be able to have mine as a show piece on my wall of shame. That B&M shifter in the chev was a dog, seriously i had 2 drunks trying to tell me how to hold up a little lever and move something then have to put the shifter all the way forwards then slam it backwards and that'll be first, then a tray load of drunks telling me to hurry up and a sober(ish) med student tell me how we are all going to die. Then there was the dash full of gauges.......

Oh as for nistune, let scott stuff it up so you got someone to blame for your problems if it all goes wrong.

Also in news, in less then 2 weeks time i am offically the main lotus technician in brisbane, i have training this year in sydney for the new models.

I'm awesome at fixing american pickup trucks with dodgy electronics, just don't fit a dodgy B&M shifter i can only find reverse when i want drive and 3rd when i want reverse

This pleases me...... and it's ok, I don't even know what shifter you're talking about hahahaha

From a cost effective point of view you'd be better of buying a VW van or something. F100 parts would be hard to source I'd imagine. It would be sick though. Mind you, I used to bum around in an old liberty wagon with a drumkit in the back, two guitars, a bass and two 50w amps. It was cramped, but it worked

I DO love the sound of those old v dubs.... but I also love the sound of a V8 hahahahaha

F-truck parts are easy to come by, theres lots of them on the road and most of the parts aren't anything special

Excellent...... congrats on the head lotus thing!

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm head lotus

Morning all

Jason you might wanna be careful posting stuff like that on a public forum

Edited by mosquitocoils

What chev was it in? Driving one with a t56 box in it (six speed I think) you have to push it back and forward again to get into reverse. I didnt know that and just slammed that shit into gear.

What size do you need? how high?

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
