Well lads, I'm formally one of the fold again.

Thanks to our good friend GTR Ken I now have my own GTR sitting happily in the carport:D

Pitty about the bloody weather & these wet roads as I haven't had a chance to have a play yet:(

Look forward to seeing you guys on the street.

Cheers,

Micko.

Good stuff Mick.:Party:

Passengers like you Joe are always welcome, as long as your coversation is as funny as your commentary on some of the cruise vids I've seen :)

I wont be there Friday however, maybe the MC day?

What !!, your asking ME. Don't forget I binned one:D

Seriously , you gotta put faith in the ATTESSA and if you have the power slide on in a corner, apply about 1/2 as much lock as you think is necessary and wait for the front torque to come in.Takes a bit of getting used to .

Thanks Ken first corner had a bit too much lock on but figured it must be as you mentioned.

It's an strange feeling sitting there with not as much to do just letting the car do the work.

I'm getting addicted to these bloody GTR's

They're an amazing car ....and good fun on a wet road.

The MC day should be great for you and Micko to test the limits safely.

Drive safe everyone I'm off to Phuket for a couple of weeks while the 34 gets a brain transplant courtesy of Dr Lumpy. Can't wait to see how it goes .

    • Hi I wanted to see if anyone knows the name of the OEM R32 rims because I can't find it anywhere
    • Gates is saying the same thing. They think I have the right bag with the wrong hose in it... I bought it off amazon, I'm thinking someone pulled a good old swapparoo and returned normal hose. Well looks like she's coming back out... Not very lucky with this hose lol. 
    • Chatting one someone recently at racing them at QR. They say you can't take turn 2 in one flat stick in 4th. They don't have the torque to pull them selves straight, so make sure you're ringing it's neck out in 3rd instead
    • Many years ago when I bought my FG XR6T, it came with bald tyres on the back (think pretty much smooth for most of the tread) and brand new Kinforest cheap shit tyres on the front. In the rain, I had more grip in the bald ass tyres on the back, than the brand new Kinforest. To the point you couldn't drive off at a set of lights and turn the corner. Car would only go straight. Very quickly all four tyres were replaced.   A few years back on a VF SV6 I had, it came with brand new chineesium tyres. In the wet at 90kmh, old 1990s tray back tradie utes could corner faster than me. There was one corner on a freeway, in a 90 zone, it's not even marked to reduce speed for those curve, it's not a hard corner, I could put the LandCruiser on mud tyres through with ease (it would easily do the corner in the wet I reckon at 120kmh), the VF however couldn't get through it at 80, as it would want to slide out.   Cheap tyres aren't worth the risk. I like decent brakes, and decent grip.
    • It shouldn't swell like that, (just looked it up) it should say SAE J30R10
