im still in. so BP's southbound at 7. then head to carseldine from there :) even if chris isnt joining us, im keen for at least a small drive :thumbsup:

sounds good Joe, look forward to fiddling a kit out of it, im sure all the parts are generic enough and can be persuaded into place and shape. if they are steel i can weld that too.

I 'should' be at the bp at 7, however,

Im being pushed by my contractor to get ahead of my current list (clients web site) because i will be netless for a few days. So depending on how im going will depend on my rocking up :P

FMIC - no stock, coming from 'japan', not happy about waiting, and the fact that they have 9 in stock according to ebay. I will be asking for free stickers!!!!

not good, should have told you before buying it, that way you would have had a heads up, should ask for a discount.

oh also, managed to source out a set of 18" rims, very much like what i used to have on the little beast, just need to save up for it (blokes being nice and is willing to wait for me to save it up).

anyone know much about BBS rims?

fark......

i wont be coming either.....very late notice. but the better half has been doing very poorly of late and i kinda need to stay home. shes been home for almost 3 weeks now....and still no answers as to whats wrong.

just thought i'd let you lads all know, took my 32 out willowbank last night. Did an 11.4 @ 123mph. Still a little more left in the current tune, spun a decent amount off the line still.

For those of you who don't know, its 040LAH.. the white 32 from the happy laps on the weekend.

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
