maybe a chaser (or GTR really!) later on though.. i need some capital.

yeah.. the drag GTR are nutz.. i'd be happy with 12's to start. .. it'll just be the cost of the turbo to get any lower that will be prohibitive

Just turning the key in a GTR is expensive!!!!!!!!!!

A chaser would be the goods, seen a few nice examples in mags, have a more classy look with the serious hp potential.

yeah.. dey cool. .only prob i was thinking when i thought about it.. 1jz-gte parts are available and things.. but the other crap like bodykits and just accessories like suspension, etc = very rare in australia.. basically every little thing would have to come from jap.. which would be cool - but add up into expensive car over time. But hell it would be original and cool :)

2 more drawings to finish and i can call it a day, a very very long day. lol

MMMMM agreed, just finished doing a whole bunch of calcs for kerb offsets, sewer and stormwater lines. Just killing a bit of time while the brain unwinds. Then I have to get up at 6am and do it all again. Cool!!!!

Im back :)

All i can say is WOW!!

I did a highway run at .95bar and she pulls like a mother****er!

Perfect all the way to redline, no missing or problems at all.

Today i gapped my iridiums to about .7-8, they were 1.1mm, taped up the coil packs while i had them out, this really does work! And i also put catch can on :)

Thats adding to the trust ic and avcr i put on the other day hehe

Avcr is amazing, ive used them before, but never personally with my own car, the boost control is amazing, it holds whatever i set and holds it perfect.

Boost is stronger and faster down low and when changing gears on boost, there is 0 lag.

adrenelin is pumping :headspin:

    • 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.
