hmmm yeah we'll rip it off and get the pro's to look at it

Heh, I spotted you doing this for Trozzle out the front of his place. (well I assume it was your work van parked near by)

I also drove right past Trozzle and waved at him but I was in the black beast which probably explains the weird look I got back. :devil:

bahahaha yeah man was sitting there going "Why doesn't it feel weird that some random in an EVO waved at me...?" I knew that I knew who was driving, just couldn't think of where or why :)

14th Oct my son God_speed's GT-R got rear-ended at 6pm by a Porsche

18th Oct I took his car to Nepean Valley Smash for a quote to go to Guild Insurance

18th Oct The panelbeater says he saw all these R32s coming down the Gt Western Hwy about 5pm on Sunday 10th Oct - ACT plates - & well-behaved!!! :)

Geez Terry,

I hope Matt's R33 is not too badly damaged, but I hope the Porsche is :D

Thanks :( Mick,

The Cayman ran up the back of a Commie which went up the back of a Suzuki which went into the back of Matt's R33 GT-R.

It looks like minor cosmetic damage only. Reo/bever panel will need replacement as well as the bar. So not too much.

Matt will probably be offloading the GT-R soon, as he's buying my R34 GT-R. I'm committing myself to a Bayside Blue VS2.

Nissans are under my skin a bit more than Matt, as he's still quite keen on Beemers too.

What comments (criticisms as well as compliments) did your boys have about the 21st? Different hairstyles back in the early 90s eh?

As if you were going to sneak that past me!!!!

I do indeed like blue although I try to keep as much colour out of the engine bay as possible these days. I do still like to try to aim for semi stealth and stock although that is getting harder and harder :)

    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
