you have my sympathy however...

i wouldnt worry to much about it, from all my breakups and shit the next girl ive been with was better than the last

there are plenty out there and i wouldnt stress about it, its over move on enjoy life

That's true, but I didn't break up with her because she wasn't good enough or anything.

This girl was amazing. She would do anything me, she was 110% gorgeous, career planned out and a heart of gold... but I just decided that at this stage in life I don't want to be held back in any way. I want to get serious about my music and career (which could be leading places soon).

I also lost alot of friends because I was seeing her instead.

So yeah... In short, I needed the freedom. It's good so far, just a bit lonely :) Will be depressing sleeping alone and waking up without her.

Wheelspin in every gear except 5th. Yep, fun :)

Awww, I thought I was cool wheel spinning 1st 2nd and partially 3rd :) But mine is NA.. with like 125rwkw.

But hey, that power figure is huge. The power/weight ratio must be insane. How much does the car weigh?

I'm getting my new MR2 in a week or so. Weighs around 1150kg (with potential to shed more) and engine puts out 180kw stock. It's had a few mods (IC, fuel pump etc.) and running 15psi.

Should be pretty quick yeah? ;)

I'm not sure exactly, I haven't had it on a weighbridge. They weigh 1095kg stock. I'd say mine would weigh maybe 1150kg now? Just guessing.

Pretty good power to weight yeah :)

Your MR2 should be reasonably nippy.

i think you have done the right thing mate and in time you will realise that alot more. you need to concentrate on your career alot more for a few years like i have done and it does really help.

all the best with your career, by the sounds of it you will do well. :ermm:

dyno'd the golf at a mate's shop for shiggles. 80fwkw. bahahaha. POS 8 valve 4 cyl SOHC is gutless as. Does 8.5L/100km tho.

Also, factory paint flips from puple to blue, and in the dark looks black. Thing's gonna be a kent to colourmatch.

well turns out the evo has ghey as 1/4's, as much as they look wide you cant fit a 17x9.5 +17 on the rear without it sticking out about an inch

and aint no way im flaring them to suit

why make front guards that fit wider wheels than the rear O_o

oh well have to find something in the vacinity of 17x9 +25

    • 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.
