fronts are 17x9+12 rears are 18x9.5+12

some folks gon love em, some gon hate em

They are very slow over there, you'd think they would have delivered them in a month.

Good choice, I had a look at those too but decided against it.

Just spoke to the nicest (and most annoying at the same time given I just wanted to get off the phone) lady at commbank....Rang up for credit card enquiries, and while she was sorting them out she was talking to me about her daughter, my house, her daughter wanting to buy a house, what furniture and appliances I need, the hours I work, how I sleep after a night shift, eye patches and ear plugs, and everything else you could think of....

I would rather the stocker, its got mad response. But blows its ass out after time.

You're not last either, Rob in the other black S2 is keeping the bottom warm at the moment.

Winton is 170kmh tops for me, but it is not sustained. Ie you're on the gas out of turn 15, then into fourth 100m down the road, then hard on the brakes 450m later.

Where as Calder, PI and Sandown you are on the gas for a good time. Though this all depends on how you exit the corner onto the straight.

send me the link of the classes and standings etc...

The stocker sucks, I was too slow to keep up with anyone and everyone.

Martin will have an update in this thread when he gets a chance to hit up excel.

The stocker turbo will net you 195-200, which is basically the power cap restricted by the fueling mods (215 in the case of my setup).

Once you tune the stocker it has a lot more bite over 4k.

Nah i'm skipping Winton so hopefully I can buy tyres in time for Sandown and a few other mods too.... as much as I really want to go.

I should write a list on what I need... something like this:

Tyres ~1000-1200

Radiator+Hoses ~200+100

Oil Cooler ~400

~$1500-1800

For a uni student. Starting my 4 week teaching rounds next week which means only 1 shift a week :(

Good work on changing wheels.

Fanta + Carlton Draught = Who knows.

How old was her daughter?

I'm thinking it's gonna be win...

At the moment I have some blue/grey 57max on the rears and with the red wheel nuts it actually looks pretty good! And the orange wheels are a better match than the bluey ones

It's amazing how much the nuts can bring it all together!

    • 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.
