haha, third drive it is then.

I remember importing my car from japan and went it had landed I went and had a look at it.....killed me for days to not think about it since it was in front of me but cant touch the thing since it hadn't went through compliance etc. But the worst day is the day before as I didn;t sleep at all seeing as I knew my car was ready the next day for pick up, however, the best feeling is when your first given the keys, you get in it and fire it up :(

Hehe yeah, when I imported my first car (R33), I used to go see it every few days when it was in compliance, even though it was a 40min or a long train trip to get there.

lol, thats dedication

Great buy and great colour. I am in a similar position. I have tracked it from the time I won it. I knew when it left Yokohama and watched the ship bringing it here. I saw the ship in Port Kembla , and I washed her and helped get her ready for quarantine. I have sat in her and started her up. She is now being complied which will only take a day or two as she is completely stock. Trouble is DOTARS are running about 10 to 14 days for the paperwork return and plate. It is now killing me and I am sick of my brother and friends calling me everyday for news. So I share your pain. Hope it all turns out well for y :Dou

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
