hey all..

we have all read the thread, page 2 of todays sunday mail, or spoken to him about his unfortunate encounter late one night this weekend....

for those who havent read he was followed by a 34, pulled over and got hit with a wrench and had his car taken from him.

the car is insured yes. but hes got to fork out an excess, loose a raiting, mess round with phones, bank cards etc etc... somthing we all do not need to go threw. apart from this some1 wrote his 260 stagea off a few months back. really not having a good run.

ill be short and simple, i want to do a cruise/catch up to raise a little bit of money for him, hes a mate, fellow sau'er thats had a fairly rough few months with cars.

the cruise will meet at Old Reynella St Francis Winery / Shopping Centre carpark next to the little Lake. good spot for pics.... 930 am 30th august, to avoid heaps of traffic.

we will go the back way to victa for a bite to eat at the bakery in pt elliot. great bakery...

the head sth road so we can all just peal off as needed.

there will simply be a bucket or somthing at the meet point, chuck as much or as little as you like in. and we can give it to nigel...

ive spoken to sled and nightcrawler regarding money holding and they said its all good for me to, and to pass it on at the cruise to nigel!!! (u better come! :D)

try and keep this thread clean. its just a good sau deed!

(tangles i need to get the route u took us on!)

adam!

    • 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
