Cheryl has now been semi retired, most of my focus is on the Radical. I have two planned events for the old girl though so she's not getting off being thrashed again. Saturday night at Bathu

So it turns out that is indeed what happened, and as Mel is not taking up racing and nor is their only child Lizzy the Great Dane, I am tidying the car up for sale.   As far as I can tell it is p

Update time, I've actually finished installing the Radicals rear spoiler on to the Skyline, what a fun job on your own getting it exactly in the middle and correct front to back. At full adjusted heig

Next event is in Grafton 6th/7th June mate and then Tamworth on July 18th/19th.

I have conned Duncan into coming to the next 2 long distance events,,,.He needs to work less and enjoy some racing for a change anyway.

Mel is getting lazy these days and I can always do with the help.

Cheers

lol you better hope Mel never finds out the internet exists....I refuse to replace all her roles for you. Even if you take me to dinner first.

Mel doesn't give a shit to be honest mate,,,she just likes taking trophy's to work and sticking it up her known it all technicians.

So what are you saying,,,sounds like I should have gotten hired help,,,maybe I can find a stray or two up there.

I need to try and line up a weekend I can head up on one of these events again!

Unfortunately neither of those weekends is likely to work for me :(

What's your next meet after that?

So as usual I'm back into weight saving mode. This excellently crafted thing by Nissan has to go. It weighs in at 2.7 kilos.

To do it I have bought this, but I think It may not fit properly in hindsight.

So I may have to buy one of these

While I was at it I thought why not ditch the steel case around my Odyssey battey,,,took a bit of work,,,but I got it out without damaging the battery.

So thats a saving of 3.3 kilo's. I'll maybe add about 300 grams back in the battery holder,,,but 3 kilo's is a great result.

Cheers

Well Matty, after Tamworth is Ringwood 8th/9th of August,,, which is by far the most crappyest climb on the calendar. It's on par with Collingrove in S.A.!!!.

Then Huntley on the 13th of September,,,then King Edward Park on the 4th of October.

The Aussie nats are on the 6th/7th and 8th of November in W.A. What about you and Sarah drive all my shit over there and I'll fly over and meet up at the airport. Sounds awesome to me.

Cheers

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out

      Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.

      Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      By Kapr · Posted

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
