yeah i bought it off nathan, who bought it off jon.

it's been around for awhile...which is good cuz i know it hasn't had a bad history like any big crashes or engine failure or anything.

except for the drifty's jon used to do every corner haha (wow that was a long time ago)

keeping on subject.....spotted some guy in a black R32 yelling "is that nathans old car" across lanes on the monaro today.

Yeh, same car. Been for sale for ages. I even heard Nige from 104.7 had his eye on it but the previous owner is hard to catch.

I even was interested but he hardly answered his phone, returned emails. Doesn't matter now, got one heaps cheaper except it's got a sunroof.

spotted an awesome looking bayside blue 34 followed by a yellow rx7 turning into the belconnen mall car park off joynton smith drive at 3:40.

i said "oo awesome" and the person next to me said "stupid hoon cars". there were driving slowly and they still get called hoon cars. 5 minutes later a holder commadore does a burnt out in the car park... and no one said anything.. ffs

lol you voyeur! :( Yeah man, I pulled up and parked opposite you on purpose, then walked towards the mall, but saw some woman at the close end of the red bridge carpark (so about 10 metres away) milling around her RX8 cos some (#*%% had smashed her window and grabbed what he could... :( I decided to move to a slightly more visible position. First time I've seen something like that happen in that particular spot, which I've always considered reasonably safe. LAME.

BTW, you weren't working on a Sunday were you??!

    • Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.
    • Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way
    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate 
    • He means "as opposed to mechanical cable drive". Older cars (R32 for ex.) had cable drive. Later cars with essentially the same gearbox, ie R34 GT (NA RB25) used essentially the same box as the R32 GTSt, but instead of a cable drive, had an electronic speed sender plugged into the same hole in the box, running from the same little gear that would have run the cable. Some of the shittier later cars use a speed sender on the nose of the diff, or the ABS sensors.
    • Lower than engine, or lower than it should at the hubs? Either way, that is a nice power figure and I'm not surprised you say it rips now. What stopped you from turning it up any more? Injectors? Or did it just stop responding to boost?
