I was trying very hard to keep my stuff-up a secret,,,like very in house,,, but seems thats dreaming.

Basically I stuffed up,,,went in to quickly and she woudn't turn, i was trying to catch a v6 supercharged commodore in my class and f**ked up.

Yes I have pics and vids,,,just no time for that malarcky,,, i have spend the last 2 weeks stripping her and putting her back together,,,12.30 nights every night, I'm rooted to say the least.

Cheryl Lives on,,,thanks to all the help from the following great people,,,in no particular order,,,i love you all

Pete and Jenna,,,thanks for all the parts,,,what would I have ever done without your help guys. THANK YOU

Duncan and Matty for all the helping put her back together,,,thanks both of you for all your time and effort,,,very much appreciated.

Mathew at Race Brakes Sydney for helping me out with new Discs and Pads,,thanks as always mate,.

So tomorrow a wheel alignment and get the front bar painted and she's good to go.

Cheers

Neil.

Seems some one was videoing Cheryl as well. At least she sounds great.

If the wheel alignment comes back bad and I can't take her to the SAU nats,,,I have a backup plan. I've been offered a drive of a very modified clubman.

Cheers

I've been into (or up actually) that bank as well mate. Probably 10 yrs or more ago.

Mt Cotton is a difficult place to come to and try to go real hard first time you've ever been there. It caught out alot of very experienced hillclimbers that weekend, so you're in good company.

Good to hear it's pretty much ready to go again :)

Yep on the money there Harry,,very technical track to get used to,,,I'm usually pretty good at working out where I can go quicker and I had lots of help from an old mate from up there. Seems I picked the wrong spot to go in deeper. Bit shocked at the carnage that happened,,,lots of open wheelers crashed which is very unusual.

Ben there were a number of times going down the 1st loop that I and many others had the old shvinkter tightening up.

Time to start packing for Adelaide,,,wheel alignment is great.

Heres my in car,,,everyone loves a stack.

actually it drives beautifully and very predictably, and has done more motorsport in the last 3 years than any other SAU car I can think of. I'd have it in a second over most cars around the forums.

Cheryl had a date with Yavus of Unigroup Engineering fame on Saturday and I believe she has fallen head over heals in love with him. After playing with her bits,,,I approved of cause and she now has 242kw's coming out of her rear end. I did ask if we could maybe lower her enthusiasm down a bit, but no was the answer.She does have a great rear end by the way.

That's using stock injectors,power fc, 040 pump, plasmaman inlet manifold,Z32 afm, FMIC and a Turbosmart boost controller.

We both left there very happy and I've entered her in next weekends VW Supersprint at Wakefield Park.

My only hope is I don't have to keep emptying her colostomy bag after every session.

Cheers

Neil

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
