mel and i had to push my car towards the end of the car park away from the tower.

dad was a guard up there a long time ago (in the 90s) and i used to get to sit in the control room and play with the cameras. also got to see some parts the public can't, that was good.

Saw a Silver 33 yesterday driving next to me on parkes way, with a Lady type at the wheel.

i was rockin the "Vin Diesel Bicep attached to a steering wheel" look.

Because nothing says cool like trying to flex an arm on the steering wheel in a bright yellow Skyrine

if you see me in the morning im usually running late. i take the VW (hard to miss also, low, loud, runs like a bucket) to work now cos the GF needs the car at home. i did drove it too work this morning though

yeh happened on saturday, i was backing out of the driveway and the wind caught the gate, the catch jumped outta the hole in the ground and slammed the back of the car. i hit the brakes when i saw the gate move so i was stopped but it just blew right into it, its like a 20cmx20cm area of white/grey scuffed paint. normally it would buff out but the paint has fractures in it now. im now in the market for a new RS260 rear bar or a full kit

also i spotted today pintaline in his stagea and at 10am a black R34 with silver/polished rims coming out of the supercheap/autobarn ramp in belco, i was walking to get some smoko.

    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
