Genesis32 - What happened?, i was told in a simple way "stupid and offensive avatar" so an admin deleted it..

I can kinda see his point though..

Nismogirl - I was there, but not in a SILVER 32 :D

Predator - Man you have a good photographic memory, even I cant remember what i was wearing that night :D ...

Bet you the love factor for your missus just shot up a little ;) RS4 stagea would be great fun, especially if you could have it as a 2nd car.

Do option #B. I have been leaning towards an old GTR too last few days as well.. i don't care whether its falling to pieces, thats half the joy in owning an old car, fixing it all up and getting it all newish again!

Yeah but I think the costs associated with making a GTR all new again as opposed to most other 15 year old cars, is something that definitely needs to be taken into account.

Plus the maintence costs will be just as high as owning a newish GTR.

Meh 2 cents

hey guess what everybody - I hope you've all realised TODAY IS A LEAP DAY!!

so enjoy this one day every 4 years occasion! and party likes it 2000 all over again! and couldn't be a better day for it up here either :D

definitely.. my budget would be around $10-$15k on an engine rebuild and hopefully a full respray (stripping the car to bare shell myself to save labour costs).. That would be a "given".

But if it takes 3-4 months sitting in my garage while I stuff with it, thats fine too :D You're not paying for things when you're not driving it.

    • 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.
